Devotees should strengthen their realization of Divine Will through prayer, through God-communion in meditation and through spiritual company.
— Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda
With immense joy we announce that the Yogoda Satsanga Sadhanalaya – Rajahmundry was inaugurated on the eve of Krishna Janmashtami on Saturday, August 24, 2024.
This event included group meditations, a special 6-hour meditation, commemoration to honour the avirbhav of Bhagavan Sri Krishna, and review of meditation techniques such as Hong-Sau, Aum, and Kriya Yoga. It also offered a blessed opportunity for an in-depth guidance in the YSS meditation techniques for YSS Lessons students. YSS sannyasis were available for counselling devotees.
The Sadhanalaya located on the sacred banks of the Godavari in Dowleswaram will be available for those sadhaks who would like to stay in the ashram atmosphere to pursue their sadhana in the midst of like-minded devotees for days, weeks, or even months at a stretch.
