Jesus Christ showed us that not only He could be resurrected, but so can we. With great selflessness, He allowed Himself to be killed to demonstrate that even when our bodies die it doesn’t mean our Self (or soul) dies. He appeared to others after his bodily death to make clear His essence was still alive. We will contemplate with Swami Vimalananda this great truth and give our humble thanks to Jesus for his ultimate selflessness.

Surya will introduce the great festival of liberation and the profound rituals and ceremonies of Passover. Passover, or Pesach in Hebrew, is one of the Jewish religion’s most sacred and widely observed holidays. We will open a discussion about the holy day’s mystical and practical significance in Jewish, Christian and Yogic traditions. There will be time for personal sharings. Snehan Born will complete the program with an interfaith ritual to the Light.

Satsang, is a special time for us to come together as a community. In Sanskrit, Sat means truth and Sangha means community. Satsang offers an opportunity to come together to share spiritual teachings. The philosophy of Integral Yoga is explored, often through an informal discussion. Although spiritual paths may diverge, the act of sharing spiritual teachings with others is inspiring and creates a solid foundation for continued practice.

People of all faiths are welcome.
