Satsang: Sri Swami Satchidananda’s Mahasamadhi
Online | By donation $0, $5, $10, $15
Please register in advance, a Zoom link and passcode will be provided via confirmation email.The Mahasamadhi program is to commemorate the date on which Swami Satchidananda left his body 21 years ago. On this date we gather annually to reflect on his life, his teachings, and his service; and to celebrate all the transformations we experienced as we walk the path of Integral Yoga.
The program will start with a puja, to invoke Swamiji’s presence and honor his life.
Satsang, 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.
