MONTHLY EVENTS
Purification Ceremony 1st Sunday, 11:00-11:15am
FIRE CEREMONY – A purification ceremony to help the spiritual aspirant release negative energy and attract positive energy. We gather around a small fire, chanting the Gayatri Mantra and the Mahamrimunjaya Mantra while pouring ghee (symbolic of our devotion) and tossing rice (seeds of our past karma) into the fire. Participants are invited to burn a small piece of paper containing their spiritual intention.
Long Meditation (1.5 hrs) , 1st Sunday, 12:45-2:15pm
LONG MEDITATION – Lead by Ananda Minister Kyle Mcdonald. P. Yogananda counseled sincere meditators to have at least one longer meditation per week in addition to what they practice daily. He said a longer meditation serves as an opportunity for the spiritual aspirant to dive deeper into the silence within where true intuition is experienced. Practicing in a group is also a valuable opportunity to meditate with those who have more experience.
Healing Prayer Circle, 3rd Sunday, 12:30-1:30pm
HEALING PRAYER CIRCLE– We use the Divine Will Healing techniques taught by Paramhansa Yogananda. Guided Prayers, Affirmations, Visualizations and other healing techniques – helps in opening the hearts and minds of all who participate and bring many blessings to those who receive. Everyone is welcome! Learn More

Ananda Espanol: Ejercicios de Energetización haga clic aquí
Ejercicios de Energetización: En el capítulo 27, del libro Autobiografía de un Yogui, Paramhansa Yogananda escribe: “Comprendiendo que el cuerpo del hombre es como una batería eléctrica, concluí que podría recargarse de energía directamente por medio de la voluntad. Ya que ninguna acción, grande o pequeña, es posible sin voluntad, el hombre puede aprovechar su motor primario, la voluntad, para renovar los tejidos corporales sin aparatos costosos, ni ejercicios mecánicos.” En este curso aprenderás estos ejercicios.
