Dear Friends,
Please join our Devotee2Devotee group in commemorating the 2018 Mahasamadhi of Paramahansa Yogananda.
Event: https://www.facebook.com/events/1563677853750153
We are honoring our beloved Guru by posting our devotional thoughts, favorite photos, and inspirational quotes from the Self-Realization / Yogoda Satsanga Society of India publications and talks. Our event will take place from March 7th – March 13th, 2018.
Please Note: 
WE ARE USING PARAMAHANSA YOGANANDA’S SRF/YSS TEACHINGS ONLY
For a detailed biography of Paramahansa Yogananda, and excerpts from his writings, please visit the official SRF website: http://www.yogananda-srf.org/
PLEASE READ PURPOSE AND GUIDELINES ~~ During this Guru commemoration event, we may each choose from all the SRF/YSS sources that talk about Paramahansa Yogananda whatever appeals to us at any time during the event.
SPIRITUAL PURPOSES OF THIS EVENT and TYPES OF POSTS TO SHARE
Our teachings say that the commemoration dates of our Gurus “ARE PARTICULARLY AUSPICIOUS; THEN, SPECIAL BLESSINGS FLOW FROM THE GREAT ONES INTO RECEPTIVE HEARTS.” One way we can make our hearts more receptive is to READ about the Guru from our SRF/YSS teachings during the days leading up to these special dates. On this event page we may want to share quotes, photos, SRF/YSS related chants and videos, etc. We may also share photos of our personal altars, or video of chants we have made.
Also, Swami Smarananandaji suggests bringing in the Gurus into our MEDITATIONS around their commemoration dates; for instance, he says before the dates for Christ, he brings in Christ for those few weeks, and for Janmashtami, Bhagavan Krishna. So we may want to bring in Sri Yukteswar into our personal meditations—another way to tune in to the holy vibrations!
SRF/YSS quotes only, please
Jai Guru
