The Expanding Light Retreat, Northern California

Devotees outside the NEW Temple of Light, Ananda Village

Dear Friends,

Now is the time. Make the commitment. Make your move.

Ananda has completed its first 50 years now. Hearing from the pioneers who have dedicated their lives to finding God and sharing how to find God was inspirational. Listening to the ways in which the teachings of this path are serving the Creator and the world gives us hope.

It only works individually if we take the steps ourselves. Is there something you are waiting for, before you commit yourself to spiritual growth? Take a step now. Growth happens wherever you are, whenever you decide. Be happier tomorrow. You don't have to be perfect. But you do want to be growing. This affirmation may help.

“God's light is within us, around us, and everywhere. With His grace, I will make my heart a temple of light, that I may become a beacon of blessings to all I meet.”

Blessings to you,
Nityananda

Nayaswami Nityananda

50th Anniversary Event was a Great Success

In July, almost 900 of our nearest and dearest came together at Ananda Village to celebrate our 50th anniversary, and to launch our new Temple of Light. The entire week was extraordinary and filled with grace.

See a video of a flyover of our new Temple of Light.

How wonderful that in these challenging times, Ananda raised its energy to build a Temple designed to be a beacon of light and love into the world. And chose to celebrate and further share 50 years of service. Swami Kriyananda guided us well.
