- This event has passed.
Yogananda’s tradition of a day of meditation celebrating the “Spiritual Christmas” before celebrating the “Social Christmas” has become the heart of Ananda’s Christmas season.
This is a day dedicated to communion with Christ Consciousness, a profound opportunity for an inner experience of the Divine. Though it’s length may seem intimidating, you may be surprised at how easily the soul welcomes long periods of deep quiet. Chanting, music, and inspirational readings and recordings carry you along. The 8 hours literally fly by.
We invite you to join us. Even if you are unable to stay for the full day, the blessings we receive when we put out a little extra effort are enormous! The more people who come to meditate together, the stronger we feel each other’s support for deep meditation.
