If you would like to visit the Encinitas Hermitage where Paramahansa Yogananda resided, spent much time in deep, divine communion with God, and wrote Autobiography of a Yogi, please note that it will open 12:00-2:00 p.m. today. Please visit encinitastemple.org and click on “Make reservations to visit SRF Hermitage.”
Our Temple Meeting takes place this Tuesday, February 17, from 7 – 8:30 p.m. at the main Temple. The meeting begins with a short inspirational talk followed by a half-hour meditation, Temple updates, Q&A on Temple matters, and an Autobiography of a Yogi study class given by the minister. This meeting is open to all.
Saturday, February 21, is our monthly Day of Service. Please join us, beginning at 8:30 a.m. with a half-hour meditation led by the minister in the main Temple. We then meet on the patio and have the opportunity to volunteer in the cleaning, gardening, or maintenance group. At 11:40 a.m., we will have another meditation with the minister before enjoying a delicious vegetarian lunch at noon. This is a wonderful way to make new friends while serving at our Temple. Please note that families are welcome to participate, and children will be guided in some fun activities.
There will be a memorial service for longtime SRF devotee, Wes Noel, at the main Encinitas Temple this coming Saturday, February 21, at 2 p.m. All are welcome to attend.
