What's On: Free Peace Concert

Durba from Mount Eden

We warmly invite you, your families and friends to join us for an evening of enchanting and deeply peaceful music on this Friday evening, November 4th at 7pm.

The ‘Concert of Inner Peace’ Australia and New Zealand concert tour will feature Eastern, Western, classical and contemporary music by the popular Czech musicians 'Agnikana and Friends' (www.agnikanasgroup.cz/en/).

The singers and musicians, who are travelling from the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Austria and Switzerland, constantly draw praise for their captivating manner, powerful presence and the spiritual depth and purity so evident to all who attend their performances.

The group specialises in the compositions of Sri Chinmoy (1931-2007), a musical and spiritual luminary whose 23,000 compositions, offered globally in over 700 Peace Concerts, have profoundly influenced many contemporary musicians and established him as one the most prodigious composers in history.

‘Sri Chinmoy’s sublime spiritual mastery reveals through music the infinite vastness of the universe as an intimate sanctuary of the soul’ Free Spirit Magazine wrote.

“He has such a tremendous and fantastic creative urge!” India’s greatest sitarist, Ravi Shankar commented.

“Sri Chinmoy’s music is a vehicle for the highest spiritual energy. It is very healing, an experience very deep within my heart and far beyond words” maestro flutist Paul Horn said.

The free concert will be in the Fickling Convention Centre 546 Mount Albert Road Auckland on Friday evening, November 4th at 7pm.

Please come along for a night of enjoyment. We would love to see you there. If you would like to attend kindly call or text Jogyata 022 188 7432 or by obtaining tickets from

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
