Five-week series • May 1st - May 29th

Great spiritual teachers offer a wealth of wisdom and guidance to those who observe them with openness. It is through that receptivity that we  are able to deepen our understanding of spiritual Truth.

In this 5-week series, we will honor the life and teachings of one such teacher, Swami Kriyananda, a direct disciple of Paramhansa Yogananda.

Swami Kriyananda's enduring legacy of kindness serves as a beacon for our personal and spiritual growth. Through his wisdom and example, we are reminded of the profound impact of living our lives dedicated to principles of compassion, generosity, devotion and attunement. 

Throughout the series, long-time devotees of Ananda Palo Alto will share intimate stories and experiences of the invaluable lessons they learned from Swami Kriyananda.

Through their observations and direct experiences, we will explore the practical applications of his teachings in daily life, offering insights and inspiration for our own spiritual journeys.

As we reflect on Swami Kriyananda's teachings, writings, and the communities he helped establish, we witness the living embodiment of his vision for a spiritually awakened world rooted in love, joy, and harmony.

Join us in celebrating his life and legacy, and discover the timeless wisdom that continues to guide and inspire us today.

Each evening will led by various disciples who spent time with Swami Kriyananda or were deeply touched by him in some way.
