Those who live in tune with the attractive force of divine love achieve harmony with nature and their fellow beings, and are attracted to blissful reunion with God.
—Paramahansa Yogananda

The auspicious occasion of the birthday of Paramahansa Yogananda is the context for this on-site retreat at CSE headquarters. Reflections on his life and teachings will guide our exploration of how divine love can inspire, support, and direct us to live a holy life—a life that is truly blessed, purposeful, and soul-satisfying. As he said, “Why not live in the highest way?”

The retreat begins Friday evening with chanting, meditation, and a devotional service. Saturday will include practical teachings for spiritually conscious living from the universal path of Kriya Yoga that you can begin implementing right away as well as meditation instruction and practice. The retreat will conclude with worship on Sunday morning.
A vegetarian lunch will be provided on Saturday.
