Sunday Service with Dharmadas and Nirmala: Deeds vs Intentions

“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.

This Week’s Topic: Deeds vs Intentions

Salvation is found in the spirit, not the letter of the law. We find fulfillment and freedom through openness to higher consciousness and through expressing that higher reality in our actions.

Join Dharmadas and Nirmala this Sunday as they share with us about the Spirit that is needed on the path.

While our services are available both in person and online, attending in person often creates a deeper spiritual experience. Whether you join us online or in our temple, all are welcome on this journey of self-awakening.
