4 & 5 July - 24-hour Gong retreat in Overlangel

During this 24-hour gong retreat we prepare together during the day for the night prayer in sound. In an atmosphere of silence and attention, you play the gongs intensively, for each other, with each other and sometimes alone. You learn to play on a meditative level with intention and experience how attention and presence deepen the playing.

The day is further carried by light Qi Gong exercises, poetry, meditative exercises and movement on sound. The continuous immersion in frequency naturally creates deep relaxation, a reset of body, mind and breath.

When night falls it begins night prayer in sound, known by many as a Gong Puja. We approach this not as a tradition, but as a field of devotion and presence. For 7.5 hours, the gongs sound continuously.

Participants play the gongs in rotation, twice for half an hour each. The rest of the time you lie, rest or sleep, carried by the waves of sound moving uninterrupted through the space, a gentle coming home to the silence that is always there.
