The Global Mala Project is a worldwide effort spearheaded by Shiva Rea, Sean Corne, Michael Franti, and yogis, yoga studios, performers and activists around the world. The Second Annual DC Global Mala is set to coincide with the Fall Equinox and UN International Peace Day on the 21st of September, 2008.
The inaugural DC Global Mala, in September 2007, was a phenomenal success—raising over $12,000 for Trees for the Future, and bringing together 500 participants to salute the sun, take in a dharma talk, and chant and sing at kirtan.
