Paramahansa Yogananda founded Self-Realization Fellowship in 1920 to disseminate definite scientific techniques of meditation. Sydney Centre is part of Self-Realization Fellowship, a worldwide non-profit organization with international headquarters in Los Angeles, California.
In his Autobiography of a Yogi Paramahansa Yogananda gives an in-depth explanation of the scientific basis of Kriya Yoga, one of the most powerful and advanced meditation techniques ever available to truth-seekers.
The advanced techniques of meditation, including Kriya Yoga, Hong-Sau and Aum are taught in Self-Realization Fellowship Lessons — unique step-by-step instructions in Raja Yoga, the 'royal' or highest path of Yoga.
Paramahansa Yogananda said the advanced meditation techniques, Kriya Yoga, Hong-Sau and Aum, taught by SRF, will enable one to awaken the mind's unlimited power and to experience peace, love and ever deepening awareness of the Divine.
The universal teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda offer a science of spiritual exploration, one that enables us to create for ourselves spiritually harmonious lives, and to contribute to a more compassionate and peaceful world.
All who came to our anniversary celebration enjoyed viewing many displays of photographs and artefacts from 55 years of the Sydney Group of Self-Realization Fellowship. On display were some treasured original letters from Paramahansa Yogananda to Sydney devotees which were of special interest. [more...]
