The Ananda Gandharvas
are a group of musicians, singers and songwriters
from Ananda Ashrama in La Crescenta, California. The actual
members and number of musicians may vary from time to time
but the Ananda Gandharvas came into being when the Jizo Peace Center
asked one of the musicians to organize and lead the music
for the First Annual Veteran's Day Peace Chant at the Yoga
Kingdom Sanctuary in Pasadena.
Since
this was not officially an Ananda Ashrama Choir function
we chose a name to represent our little peace band. "Ananda Gandharvas"
are Sanskrit words that loosely mean "celestial singers of bliss." Something we strive for!
We
have since released two CD's which can be found in our Music
Store.
The Ananda Gandharvas will accept engagements and record cd's as they
are inspiried to, for the purpose of promoting peace, healing,
and higher consciousness on our beautiful planet.
