“Untying the cord of breath which binds the soul to the body, Kriya serves to prolong life and enlarge the consciousness to infinity. The yoga method overcomes the tug of war between the mind and the matter-bound senses, and frees the devotee to reinherit his eternal kingdom.” — Paramhansa Yogananda

Free Screening Finding Happiness
2018-04-29 12:00 - 13:30
Watch Ananda’s Award Winning Movie “Finding Happiness” With Us
Sunday April 29th
12 noon – 1.30 PM

The World in Crisis

Economic collapse, government gridlock, climate disasters, senseless violence, pervasive corruption. Protests, anger, disillusionment, despair.
Against this background, fictional journalist Juliet Palmer, an investigative reporter specializing in stories that expose corruption, receives an unusual (and unwanted) assignment from her boss at Profiles magazine: she’ll visit a spiritual community in northern California that has developed alternative solutions to the world’s problems for nearly half a century. While at Ananda World Brotherhood Village, she’ll interview its visionary founder.
With a fair portion of skepticism and a dash of curiosity, Juliet embarks on a professional and personal journey that will open her eyes and change her life.
Filmed on location at the Ananda communities in California, Italy, and India, Finding Happiness follows Juliet as she talks with the real residents of Ananda, who answer her questions and welcome her to a reality she had never imagined possible.

The Art of Spending Quality Time with God
2018-04-20 16:00 - 2018-04-22 14:30
“…The yogi, retiring alone to a quiet place, should try to unite his little self with the Supreme Self.
… It would be a great aid to [most aspiring yogis] in their sadhana (spiritual practice) if they could spend some time—a week or two, or even longer—every year, and at least one day a week, in seclusion.”— from The Essence of the Bhagavad Gita, Explained by Paramhansa Yogananda, as Remembered by Swami Kriyananda
