Resounding Devotion: A Vocal Prayer Journey
2025-08-10 12:00 - 17:00 (America/New_York) | Mountain View Studio, 20 Mountain View Ave, Woodstock, New York, NY, 12498, United States
Let us join together and reclaim our devotional practices.
Let us remember we are here to be expressions of love—
and one of the most ancient ways we do that is through sacred sounding.
This isn’t a performance.
It’s a temple space.
We will sing, tone, breathe, and remember.
Through mantra, breath, and voice, we return to the art of deep listening.
Rooted in Bhakti, Tantra, Tibetan Buddhism, and Hindu traditions,
Resounding Devotion is a journey into the sacred sound current.
Where voice becomes offering.
Where silence becomes sanctuary.
Where the gods and goddesses rise from within.
All voices welcome. No experience necessary.

Dharma Talk
2025-10-10 17:00 - 19:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Welcome Om Temple, 173 Huguenot Street, New Paltz, NY, 12561, United States
Together we’ll explore what makes Tibetan Buddhism unique, how it connects with other Buddhist traditions, and why it’s often misunderstood as a “religion.” Most of all, we’ll open into the Dharma as a living path of wisdom, compassion, and awakening.

The Rhythm of Receive and Release
2025-10-25 15:00 - 17:00 (America/New_York) | Welcome Om Temple, 173 Huguenot Street, New Paltz, NY, 12561, United States
Join us monthly in vibrational community and healing.
Together we will follow the rhythm of the In Breath and the Out Breath as we receive sound healing on the inhale and then express through percussive instruments on the exhale.
Brenda Cemelli musician, singer, therapist, and ritualist will lead and co-lead this experience. The circle itself creates the energy and flow. You are welcome to bring percussion instruments and are especially encouraged to bring drums. Sound bathing will be seated, though you may bring something to recline if you wish.

Welcome to A Sounding, a weekly gathering at Welcome Om, an open field for exploring our voices and instruments as living threads of creation.
Together let’s find the edges of dissonance and harmony, curiosity and surrender, and allow sound to lead us back to wholeness.
This is not performance. It’s an invitation to drop the idea of what sound should be and remember that there is no out of tune, no wrong note, only the wild symphony of life finding its rhythm again.
We’ll begin with the rolling Oṁ and move into interactive play with sound and vibration, weaving our magic together through listening, expression, and spontaneous co-creation.
Come as you are, musician, seeker, sound lover, or shy singer.Bring your voice, your instrument, your heart, and your wonder.
Fridays at 10am, Venus DayWelcome Om Temple(New Paltz, NY)
There is no right way, only the way of coming home to your sound.Welcome OM.

2025-11-15 11:00 - 12:00 (America/New_York) | Welcome Om Temple, 173 Huguenot Street, New Paltz, NY, 12561, United States
Sing. Receive. Remember.
Om… we begin in remembrance.
This is a temple gathering devoted to the Goddess, a space to receive, to sing, and to be sung.
Bhajan is the art of devotional song, simple melodies offered from the heart. Sometimes it unfolds as call and response, sometimes through deep listening, resting in the current of sound itself.
Tara Samadhi shares her personal śākta practice through voice, harmonium, and mantra, guiding us into the vibration of the Divine Mother. You are invited to rest, hum, or join the song, all ways are welcome.
Together we return to the living pulse of love that moves through all things.
Welcome Om.✨ A recurring temple gathering every Saturday at 11 AM
Bring warmies, blanket, mug for tea, and an open heart.

Resounding Devotion SoundShop w/ Tara Samadhi
2025-11-23 17:00 - 19:30 (America/New_York) | Euphoria Yoga Woodstock, 99 Tinker Street, Woodstock, NY, 12498, United States
There is a sound in you that is unlike any other, come remember the one who sings you.
Beloved ones, come as you are, with your open heart and your trembling, tender, untamed sound. This is a space for the ones who have been told to be quiet, for the ones who were shamed for singing off key, for the ones who fear being too much or not enough. This is for you.
Here we remember.
Through mantra and bija we return to the living current of sound, the primordial pulse that births creation and sets the soul free. We invoke the Goddess to sing through us, to rise through our breath, to move through our bodies as vibration, prayer, and play.
Resounding Devotion is not a performance, it is a remembering. It is where we dissolve the edges of right and wrong and come home to the raw beauty of our true voice.
Let us sound ourselves awake.
Let us remember that our sound is the liberating force of the world.
Euphoria Yoga Woodstock
November 23rd @ 5pm
