Sunday Mornings at 10 AM ~ In-Person and Online
Truth is one and eternal. Realize oneness with it in your deathless Self, within.” Thus begins our weekly reading from Swami Kriyananda’s Rays of the One Light, which offers commentaries on the Bible and the Bhagavad Gita based on the teachings of Paramhansa Yogananda.
The minister then offers an inspirational talk, exploring the ideals from the reading—including soul-expansion through meditation, selfless service, and devotional self-offering. The services incorporate prayer, chanting, and music to awaken the inner joy of the soul.
This is followed by The Festival of Light—a poetic ceremony celebrating the journey of the soul to Self-realization.
