Yogoda Satsanga Dhyana Kendra – Chennai

Tamil Nadu

Group meditation is a castle that protects the new spiritual aspirants as well as the veteran meditators. Meditating together increases the degree of Self-realization of each member of the group by the law of invisible vibratory exchange of group magnetism.

— Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda

Welcome to the Chennai Meditation Centre 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 more than 200 centres across India to help all truth-seekers experience the power of group meditations and to share in spiritual fellowship.

YSS publications, the wisdom gems from Paramahansa Yogananda including the spiritual best-seller Autobiography of a Yogi, are available at our centres and on our Online Bookstore.
