SUMMARY:Easter Retreat Weekend\, 3-5 April
DESCRIPTION:“Easter and the Life of Christ According to Yogananda” \n \n“Bless us\, O Christ\, that from this moment we use our inner sense to follow all the mental\, moral\, and spiritual laws by which we can resurrect our souls from the enthrallment of cosmic delusion into the everlasting freedom of God-contact.” – Paramhansa Yogananda\n \nSaints frequently live their lives so as to set examples of right behavior for all mankind; even more so with avatars. Join us this weekend as we study and learn from the life\, teachings\, crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ\, one of the five great avatars of our path. \n“The Resurrection gives not only the comforting reassurance that heaven does exist\, but that love and joy are\, in the end\, more powerful than hatred. Thus\, and very fittingly\, the Crucifixion and the Resurrection together dramatize the two essential conditions for knowing God: willingness to face for His sake any test that comes; and faith to accept it with love and courage\, firm in the knowledge that all things pass\, whereas God’s love is ours forever.” – Swami Kriyananda \n\nGood Friday 3 April \n4:00-5:00 pm    Arrivals & registration\n5:00                 Chai\n6:00-7:00          Meditation at Swami Kriyananda’s house\n7:00                 Dinner\n8:00-9:00          Welcoming & orientation \nSaturday 4 April \n7:00-9:00 am    Energisation & meditation\n9:00                 Breakfast\n11:00-12:45 pm Video: Swami Kriyananda’s Oratorio “Christ Lives”: life of Christ told through music\n1:00-2:00          Lunch\n3:30-5:00          Panel: Lessons from the Life & Teachings of Christ\n5:00                 Chai\n5:45-7:00          Energisation & meditation\n7:00                 Dinner\n8:00                 Video: Easter satsang by Swami Kriyananda (Gurgaon) \nEaster Sunday 5 April \n6:30-8:30 am     Easter sunrise meditation with Yoganandaji\n8:45-10:00        Easter breakfast\n10:00-10:30      Spiritual egg hunt\n11:00-12:30 pm Panel: Resurrection: The Art of Re-Inventing Yourself \n12:30               Purification ceremony\n1:00-2:00          Easter lunch and farewells \n\n \nGUIDELINES TO START PLANNING YOUR RETREAT:\nTo find out more about our accommodation click here https://anandameditationretreat.in/accommodations/  and look at your options to recharge yourself with us through this experience! \nFor easy ways to find out how to get here visit – https://anandameditationretreat.in/directions/ \nTips: Bring comfortable clothing suitable for yoga & meditation.

SUMMARY:Kriya Initiation with Nayaswami Haridas
DESCRIPTION:““Practice Kriya night and day. It is the greatest key to salvation. Other people go by books and lesser practices\, but it will take them incarnations to reach God.” – Paramhansa Yogananda \n\n\nKriya Yoga \n \nSpiritual masters usually empower some of their close disciples to carry on their tradition\, even during their own lifetime. For example\, it is mentioned in the Bible\, “Jesus himself baptized not\, but his disciples.” John 4:2. This Kriya technique has been transmitted through the same sacred initiation ceremony that was performed by Babaji for Lahiri Mahasaya\, passed down through the disciples of Lahiri Mahasaya and onward through their disciples to succeeding generations. Paramhansa Yogananda had also authorised a number of his close disciples to give Kriya initiation on his behalf\, one being Swami Kriyananda. Paramhansa Yogananda’s teachings have put the technique of Kriya Yoga into the wider context of a yogic lifestyle. Educational centres and communities based on this lifestyle have been developed in the United States\, Europe\, and India by his direct disciple Swami Kriyananda. \nSwami Kriyananda has also trained devotees in the teachings of Self-realisation\, helping them to prepare for and receive Kriya\, each student according to his own capacities and pace. In recent years Swami Kriyananda authorised some members of the Ananda Sangha to give Kriya initiation in Yogananda’s name. \n\n\nJoin us for this blessed initiation in receiving or renewing the Kriya Yoga technique with Nayaswami Haridas (Authorized by Swami Kriyananda to give Kriya Yoga Initiations). \n \nAbout Nayaswami Haridas: \nNayaswamis Haridas (and his wife Nayaswami Roma) are the spiritual directors of Ananda Bangalore. A disciple of Paramhansa Yogananda and student of Swami Kriyananda for over 30 years\, he is is among the founding members of Ananda India and has directed the Delhi\, Lucknow and Calcutta Meditation Centers.  Nayaswami Haridas is a Kriyacharya and he has conducted meditation workshops  and  retreats extensively throughout the US\, India and Singapore. \n\nFor more details on bookings\, accommodation and any information contact retreat@anandaindia.org / 09011069792. \n\n \n\n“Kriya Yoga directs energy lengthwise around the spine\, gradually neutralizing the eddies of chitta. At the same time it strengthens the nerves in the spine and brain to receive cosmic currents of energy and consciousness. Yogananda stated that Kriya is the supreme yoga science.” \n—Swami Kriyananda\, The Path
