“Peace fills my body; peace fills my heart and dwells within my love; peace within, without, everywhere .” — From an affirmation by Paramahansa Yogananda

16/02/2023

After a five-day immersion in the teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda, all those who have joined together for this special programme will look forward to holding on to that tangible feeling of Divine Presence — blessings that are the hallmark of such a Sangam. In the closing programme, Swami Chidanandaji will share inspiration on how to carry the Sangam home and how to follow the sadhana given by Paramahansaji to live a truly balanced life and experience an intimate relationship with the Divine.

Swamiji's talk will be preceded by a period of devotional chanting.

Thursday, February 16
9:30 a.m. – 11 a.m. (IST)

“Often we continue to suffer without making an effort to change; that is why we don't find lasting peace and contentment. If we would persevere we would certainly be able to conquer all difficulties. We must make the effort, that we may go from misery to happiness, from despondency to courage.” — Paramahansa Yogananda

"One should forgive, under any injury. It hath been said that the continuation of the species is due to man’s being forgiving. Forgiveness is the might of the mighty.”

With these words, the Mahabharata emphasizes how supremely vital it is to forgive our wrongdoers. The person who forgives experiences a cleansing and refreshing freedom. This class emphasizes how practising the divine quality of forgiveness is more beneficial for the one who forgives than the one forgiven, while opening the doors to inner peace and tranquility.

We invite you to join us for a live-streamed discourse by Swami Smaranananda Giri on this topic during YSS Sangam 2023:

Paramahansaji says: “To be calmly active and actively calm — a Prince of Peace sitting on the throne of poise, directing the kingdom of activity — is to be spiritually healthy.” This talk sheds light on how we can cultivate peace, and remain ensconced in it, by meditating deeply and holding on to the after-effects while faithfully performing our duties. Also, by making a conscious mental effort to be in tune with the divine at all times, and by sending out thoughts of love, goodwill, and harmony, we can fortify our inner sanctuary of peace.
