05/31/2026

We welcome you to our Ananda Sangha House in the spirit of community support for whatever your spiritual aspirations may be! Transform with us! (You can join us online as well if you can’t make it in person)

Sunday Satsang at Ananda is inspired by the meditation tradition of the East and the ancient teachings of mystical Christianity, with inspirational readings from both the Bible and the Bhagavad Gita. Service usually includes purification, chanting, affirmations, and meditation as well.

On the second Sunday of each month we invite one of Ananda’s most prominent teachers and leaders from around the world to join us online and share with us. We still come together in person and do the first part of the satsang as our traditional Sunday service with chanting, affirmations and readings and then at 11:00am we spend the last hour online with our special guest.

This week Dana Lynne Andersen join us from Ananda Village, CA.

About Our Guest

Dana Lynne Andersen is an internationally acclaimed multimedia artist, writer, and teacher whose work bridges creativity, consciousness, and spiritual awakening. With a Master’s Degree in Consciousness Studies from John F. Kennedy University, she has spent decades using art as a catalyst for transformation, exhibiting and teaching across three continents. Her paintings—vibrant, luminous, and cosmically expansive—have appeared on book and journal covers worldwide, including artwork commissioned by Swami Kriyananda for The Essence of the Bhagavad Gita.

Deeply connected to the Ananda lineage, Dana has created transformative art and consciousness studios at Ananda Village and later founded the Awakening Arts Academy in Assisi, Italy and Oregon—centers dedicated to uplifting humanity through inspired creativity. Her pioneering approach, known as Transformative Arts, blends movement, imagery, somatic exploration, and intuitive expression to awaken the higher Self. Dana continues to teach internationally, offering workshops and training that reveal creativity as a spiritual path and a powerful force for personal and collective evolution.

The Science of Yoga focuses primarily on techniques that work with the energy body and expand consciousness through various practices, including pranayama, hatha yoga, and meditation. That’s the yogi’s bag of tricks to realize our Divine connection. But in the beautiful prism of God’s creation there is an innate creativity like a kaleidoscope of different variations on the one theme, or like a flower that morphs when it is planted in a slightly different soil.  

This creative reactivity within new environments in a spiritual sense is the manifestation of the arts through each individual soul’s expression. When we are in that flow, we are alive to bring forth our God-given talents into the world and to literally allow the Divine Mother to experience Her joyful Self through us in uniquely beautiful ways. Swami Kriyananda brought clarity to this truth:

“Creativity is fundamental to the spiritual path. To grow spiritually, you must give of yourself; first to God, and then, as He inspires you, to God in others. The devotee’s constant prayer must be, ‘Lord, help me to serve You better.’ When you ask God to work through you, all work—whether artistic or mundane—becomes creative, because spirit is ever-new!”

The expression of creativity, especially when we consciously tune into a Divine flow, effortlessly increases our energy, concentration and thus our ability to feel the many aspects of the Divine (most assuredly joy, love, and peace). It enhances our lives in wondrous ways AND we are able to share and expand God’s blessings to all. The arts can become a universal bridge to higher consciousness no matter what religion one identifies with (or not!)
 
This upcoming weekend May 29-31, Ananda in Texas has a Once in a Blue Moon opportunity to truly explore the realm of creativity through the lense of spirituality. Don’t miss out! There are two opportunities: a taste of possibilities on Friday night, and a joyful immersion on Saturday. We hope to see you and share in the joy!

Together in joyful, creative flow,
Ananda in Texas
