Friday evening, 7 pm • also available on livestream

Join us for an evening of sacred chanting on the holy occasion of solstice. Swami Sri Yukteswar Giri honored these moments of shift in the sun’s course with sacred chanting and fellowship with devotees. We will continue the tradition on this day, starting with a large Indian dinner (just like the ones he served at his ashram) at the community and then Kirtan at the Ananda temple.

Chanting has the power to transform and uplift the soul, and to open the heart. It is a blessing for ourselves and for the world. Most chants are simple, easy to learn and sing along with. Words are mostly in English and chants written by Paramhansa Yogananda or Swami Kriyananda. Words will be provided.
