Pilgrimage, kirtan on the road, dhikr in motion, a Name under the breath on the way to work: chanting is not owned by the cushion. Walking gives the body a baseline rhythm that a sitting mind often has to invent.

A practice that can only live in ideal conditions will not survive your actual life.

Can You Chant While Walking?
