Human life is beset with sorrow until we know how to tune in with the Divine Will, whose 'right course' is often baffling to the egoistic intelligence.

Guided Meditation Services

Guided Meditation Services will begin Saturday, May 4th

The first Saturday of each month will be a three hour Guided Meditation Service.

Guided Meditations offer a unique opportunity for our members to incorporate the benefits of a long meditation in a group setting which strengthens the vibrations for all participants. Many students find that Guided Meditations inspire them to perform the techniques more faithfully and with deeper concentration. To receive the most benefits of this service one is encouraged to attend all three hours. 

Please enter and leave on the hour.

No details of the techniques will be given by the leader. If you wish to get the techniques of meditation as taught by Paramahansa Yogananda you must subscribe to the SRF Lessons.
