Click HERE to listen to a live version of the Lalita Invocation beautifully led by Kirtan Leader Institute coach/teacher Dawnia Dresser. Recorded from the audience, so it’s little rough. However, I think you’ll catch the energetic vibe as she invokes Lalita, the goddess of Beauty. Lalita is the creator of the universe, and both fully spiritual and fully sensual. I like to call her the Divine-est Mother. Vocal harmony by KLI instructor Robyn Broyden. Cello solo by the supremely talented James Hoskins.
