Attuning to Yogananda
Not scheduled at this time.
January 5 is the birthday of Paramhansa Yogananda, the avatar who brought yoga to America in 1920. In 1946 Yogananda published his Autobiography of a Yogi, a book that has sold over 4 million copies and started many millions of readers on their own spiritual journey.
During this weekend—you will:
- Experience the presence of Yogananda through his writing, his voice, stories of the Master, and meditating with his holy relics.
- Introspect and discuss how to make him more deeply part of your life and how to tune in to his inner guidance.
- Learn and practice his Energization Exercises and the Hong-Sau technique, which he called “India’s greatest contribution to the world.” You will be introduced to the path of Kriya yoga, which Yogananda was sent to the West to share.
- Enjoy Sunday Service led by Swami Kriyananda’s spiritual heir, Nayaswami Jyotish, and his wife, Nayaswami Devi.
- Discover the power of keeping Yogananda’s presence in your heart and mind, and see doors open for new solutions and greater harmony in your life.
Please add a night or two of Personal Retreat to your weekend in order to join in Ananda Village's celebration of Yogananda’s birthday, the evening of January 5.
