Welcome to the Seattle Center of SRF

Welcome to the Seattle Center of Self-Realization Fellowship which serves families and friends in the greater Seattle area through weekly devotional and meditation services. The Seattle Center is a branch of Self-Realization Fellowship, a worldwide, non-profit religious organization founded by Paramahansa Yogananda in 1920 to teach scientific techniques of meditation that lead to a direct, personal experience of God. The Center is open to the public for services and special activities. You are invited to attend our services and welcome to stop by our information table to find out more about our activities.
