About Meditation

"Be mentally anchored in that which alone is changeless in this changing world: God"

Central to Paramahansa Yogananda's teachings are scientific techniques of concentration and meditation that lead to the direct personal experience of God. These yoga methods quiet the mind and make it possible to withdraw one's energy and attention from the usual turbulence of thoughts, emotions and sensory perceptions. In the clarity of that inner stillness, one comes to experience a deepening awareness of God's presence as inner peace and divine bliss.

Weekly services

Paramahansa Yogananda once said, "Meditating together increases the degree of Self-realization of each member of the group by the law of invisible vibratory exchange of group magnetism." Join us in the inner peace and well being of spiritual fellowship.

"The proximity of others' spiritual vibrations has the power of raising your own. Meditating with other devotees thus helps you to quicken your evolution. They inspire you on your climb up the ladder of Self-realization; and you, by your example, can also be helpful to them."

— Paramahansa Yogananda
