Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda--Last Birthday

Picture the New Year as a garden you are responsible for planting. Sow the seeds of good habits in this soil and weed out worries and wrong actions of the past.

~Paramahansa Yogananda

Paramahansa Yogananda Birthday Commemoration Service

January 5, 2026 @ 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm

In our Chapel


Our service will begin at 8pm – 9pm. The doors will be open at 7:30 pm.


Commemoration services for the SRF gurus are deeply spiritual occasions. The chapel will be open one-half hour before the service begins. Please bring a flower offering as a symbol of devotion to God and Paramahansa Yogananda. Please do not smell the flower but save its fragrance as part of the gift meant for God. Please also bring a donation in a sealed envelope as a symbol of loyalty and faithfulness to the cause of SRF. Your donation will be used by SRF for sharing the sacred teachings of Self-Realization Fellowship with other truth seekers.


It is a long-standing tradition in SRF temples and ashrams that a cake will be prepared for Guruji and partaken of at the end of his Birthday Service. Our Group will be participating in this tradition.

Service Times for Dallas Fort Worth Meditation Group

 

Group meditation is a castle that protects the new spiritual aspirants as well as the veteran meditators. Meditating together increases the degree of Self-realization of each member of the group by the law of invisible vibratory exchange of group magnetism. 

~Paramahansa Yogananda
