Babaji's Interest in the West
Babaji speaking to Sri Yukteswar during the1894 Kumbha Mela in Allahabad:
"East and West must establish a golden middle path of activity and spirituality combined. India has much to learn from the West in material development; in return, India can teach the universal methods by which the West will be able to base its religious beliefs on the unshakable foundations of yogic science.
"You Swamiji have a part to play in the coming harmonious exchange between Orient and Occident. Some years hence I shall send you a disciple whom you can train for yoga dissemination in the West. The vibrations there of many spiritually seeking souls come floodlike to me. I perceive potential saints in America and Europe, waiting to be awakened." ~Paramahansa Yogananda Autobiography of a Yogi Page 343 |

This service will begin with a prayer, inspirational reading and a chant. Periods of meditation will be broken on the hour with chanting. We will be practicing the SRF Healing Technique at the end of the service.
We have initiated a security measure of locking the front door at 10 minutes after the top of the hour. So each hour the front door will be unlocked for 10 minutes beginning at the top of the hour.
There will be a sign on the front door announcing this.
Please enter and exit, and use the rest rooms on the hour during chants so as not to disturb others.
