The Mariposa Museum, 26 Main St. in Peterborough, will host a free program Wednesday, April 23, from 6 to 7:30 p.m. featuring the Gaia Shabad, a prayer for corn, grain and rain, rooted in Sikh tradition. The event will be led by Gwir and Abhai Raj Llewellyn, who have shared a meditative music practice since 2012.
The Gaia Shabad reflects a time of drought and community prayer that led to renewal of the land. The practice evolved into langar, a shared meal served at every Sikh Gurdwara.
The Llewellyns, who perform as Sat Purkh, have recorded 11 albums of sacred music and draw from Sikh gurbani and other traditions.
