There will be a reception at the San Elijo Nature Reserve Center in Cardiff immediately following the Memorial service. Her sister Trish Ryan and family warmly invite all who would like to attend.

Our Temple Meeting takes place this Tuesday, March 18, 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, and an Autobiography of a Yogi study class given by the minister. All are welcome.

We are happy to announce that the new personal retreat program in Encinitas is now open. The retreat, with accommodations adjacent to the Encinitas Ashram Center grounds, provides an opportunity for personal meditation, study, and reflection along with group meditations and inspirational services at the Encinitas Temple and the J Street Chapel.

Retreatants will also have access to the meditation gardens and be able to visit the Encinitas Hermitage. For more information, and to register online, please visit https://encinitastemple.org/retreat/ or call the Retreat Office at 760-753-1811.

You’re in for a special treat at this year’s Movie Night – a triple feature! First, we will watch some clips from a prior Youth Retreat held in 2004 at the blessed SRF Lake Shrine, followed by a full Encinitas Halloween puppet show held on the ashram grounds in the early 2000’s entitled, “A Star is Born.” Finally, the main feature, The Life of Paramahansa Yogananda: The Early Years in America. 

This event is free, and no reservations are required! So, mark your calendars for Saturday, March 29, 6 – 7:30 p.m. at the J Street Chapel. We look forward to seeing you there!
