Thursday, May 10, 8:00 p.m. Swami Sri Yukteswar Birthday Commemoration Service
Paramahansa Yogananda said, “Celebration of the birthday of a God-realized soul...is a deeply spiritual occasion on which the vibrations of blessing from an illumined master are stronger than on other days in the year, because in the astral world, also, a celebration is taking place. Devotees who attend...with the right attitude will reap spiritual benefits and will find their high resolutions strengthened."
In commemoration of the birthday of our paramguru, Swami Sri Yukteswarji*, we will have a special Service in the Temple. All are welcome.
It is customary to bring a flower symbolizing devotion, and a monetary offering in gratitude to the SRF line of Gurus and their teachings. Flowers will be available on a donation basis outside the Temple from 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
*The guru of Paramahansa Yogananda. To read more about Swami Sri Yukteswar, visit SRF's main site here.
