Welcome to the Coimbatore Retreat of Yogoda Satsanga Society of India (YSS). Paramahansa Yogananda founded YSS in 1917 to make available the ancient scientific teachings and meditation techniques of Kriya Yoga for achieving all-round success, well-being, and a direct personal experience of God.

YSS has several locations spread throughout the country, meant exclusively for retreats. These locations, situated amidst nature and serene surroundings, far from the hustle and bustle of noisy city life, provide an ideal setup for retreatants to relax and go deep into their sadhana and be closer to their true Self.

Sincere sadhaks get a wonderful opportunity to withdraw their attention from the ceaseless activity of everyday living and focus it on the inner silence, thereby drinking the nectar of God’s peace and bliss. They can come for the retreat to rest and to find inspiration and spiritual renewal. Or to seek answers to questions or solutions to problems that can be resolved only by deep reflection, understanding, and inner guidance.

Additionally, retreatants may also avail themselves of the library facilities during their stay, offering an opportunity to borrow Paramahansa Yoganandaji’s bestselling spiritual classic Autobiography of a Yogi and other YSS publications and deepen their attunement with the Divine through the soulful study of the timeless teachings of the great guru.
