Paramhansa Yogananda’s Birthday Celebration

  • Ananda Temple 2171 El Camino Real Palo Alto, CA United States (map)

Special Sunday Service, Join us in person or on Livestream

Join us for a special Sunday service celebrating Paramhansa Yogananda's birthday, an auspicious occasion to attune to his spiritual magnetism. A divine guru such as Yogananda awakens all souls to their inherent potential, offering spiritual gifts to those who seek his guidance. On this day, we express our gratitude for his presence in our lives.

In lieu of our usual Sunday service, this morning program will include music, chanting, meditation, and inspirational talks, culminating in a special ceremony to honor Yoganandaji. Everyone is invited to participate by offering an affirmation or vow as a "birthday gift" to the great yoga master.

Newcomers and truth seekers who are not disciples of Yogananda may place a flower on the altar first—either a favorite flower from home or one provided—followed by disciples and students who have made pledges to Yogananda and his teachings.

There is a way for everyone to participate so do come and receive the gift of a Master’s heightened presence on the day of His birth
