You arrive at Avata’s quiet courtyard as late-afternoon light softens Kathmandu’s city edge. A low hum of traffic fades behind a gate; inside, a small garden breathes—bamboo leaves whisper, a courtyard wall holds the warmth of the day. Participants set down mats and bolsters while a facilitator arranges singing bowls and a bronze gong. The first strike is a physical nudge: sound moving through the air and into the body, inviting a slow, inward pace.
