Anandita Basu

Anandita Basu was introduced to Sahaja Yoga meditation at a young age and followed her heart to develop her musical talents to help others attain inner peace through music and meditation. Her unique voice and style of singing qawwali has made her popular all over the world opening the hearts of thousands and inspiring joy and peace where ever she goes.  Fresh from her tour of Brazil, Anandita will also hold free concerts in Seattle, Kamloops and Richmond.

This concert is part of a worldwide celebration of the 100th Anniversary of the birth of the Founder of Sahaja Yoga Meditation, Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi. Shri Mataji was born on the Spring Equinox, March 21, 1923 in Chhindwara, India and started Sahaja Yoga in 1970. For over 50 years the method of meditation she devised has helped thousands of people create peace and balance in their lives. This concert is a tribute to her life, in appreciation for the work she did in establishing Sahaja Yoga in over 70 countries.
