This offering reflects continued commitment of YSS to Paramahansa Yogananda’s ideal: “In being of spiritual, mental, and material service to others, you will find your own needs fulfilled. As you forget self in service to others, you will find that, without seeking it, your own cup of happiness will be full.”
Guided by this vision, the society serves the needy across India through its ashrams, kendras, and mandalis.
