# **MYSTICISM THROUGH POETRY**

## SUN. FEB 9TH, 7PM-9PM AT MYSTIC, SF DOGPATCH (address with ticket)

#### **A poet is someone who can pour light into a cup,** **then raise it to nourish your beautiful, parched holy mouth.** **~ Hafez**

## During this 2-hour class, oshan anand will share poetry from Zen, Taoist, Sufi, Sikh, Hindu, Tantric, Islamic, Christian, and indigenous traditions, with biographical, historical, philosophical, and mystical context.

#### **Come early (6:30pm) and stay after (until 10pm) for free Gongfu Tea service.**

### **Why Mystical Poetry?**

#### Mysticism is the direct experience of our divine nature through ecstatic practice. A defining quality of mystical experience is its ineffability—it transcends language. Yet, it is exactly this impossible alchemical task which mystical poetry seeks to achieve - to lead us to a mystical experience, through symbolism, layering of meaning, density, transgression, alchemy, and magic.

#### Mystical experiences can dissolve the ego, expand perception, nurture peace, and wake us up to our interconnectedness, leading to enhanced well-being, health, creativity, compassion, and a deeper sense of meaning and purpose.

### **oshan anand**

#### oshan anand has been writing and reading poetry since childhood, and has been a lifelong student of diverse mystical traditions.

#### From 2009-2012 oshan hosted Open Heart Poetry, a weekly poetry night at his San Francisco teahouse, Om Shan Tea.

#### Later, while serving a 7½ year prison sentence for psychedelics, oshan designed this course on mystical poetry, which he taught to over 100 inmates.

#### oshan is a professional [tea ceremonialist](https://oshananand.medium.com/oshan-anand-teamaster-e3e7cda08c44), interior designer, digital designer, performance poet, DJ, and producer of Bay Area events: [World Folk Jam](https://worldfolkjam.com/), [Folktronika](https://www.folktronika.com/), [Midwinter Magic](https://www.ticketfairy.com/event/midwintermagic/), [BeHereTao](https://www.beheretao.com/) and [Heartform](https://www.heartform.com/).
