Announcements for July 14, 2024
The 2024 SRF World Convocation begins today, where we can find spiritual renewal and divine fellowship through a weeklong immersion in Paramahansa Yogananda’s “how-to-live” teachings and meditation techniques, guided group meditations and kirtans (devotional chanting). Starting this evening at 7:30 pm, we will be streaming the evening classes and meditations in our chapel. All are welcome to attend those.
For the full Convocation schedule, please visit convocation.yogananda.org. A schedule for the Convocation streamed talks and meditations at our Center is available at the Information Table and on our Center’s website as srfseattlecenter.org.
While it was previously published that the three hour morning meditation on Saturday 7/20 was canceled, we are happy to announce that due to volunteer availability, we will be able to hold the meditation service. There will be energization exercises at 9:40 a.m., followed by meditation from 10 am to 12:45 p.m on July 20. This will be followed by the 1pm class from the LA Convocation which will be shown on screen in our chapel.
