Listen to these Kirtan Chants


 

“Self-realization is the knowing — in body, mind, and soul — that we are one with the omnipresence of God; that we do not have to pray that it comes to us, that we are not merely near it at all times, but that God’s omnipresence is our omnipresence; that we are just as much a part of Him now as we ever will be. All we have to do is improve our knowing.”

— Paramahansa Yogananda —

Day of Service (May 19) 
This is a great opportunity to meet fellow devotees, and to serve God and Master. By helping to keep our temple beautiful, you will in turn feel energized and inspired. The opening meditation begins at 10 a.m. A delicious vegetarian lunch will be served at 1:20 p.m. 

Story Night (May 19)
This Story Night, on Saturday evening beginning at 7:00 p.m., will give all of us a chance to look back through our lives and find some of the most inspiring and spiritually touching moments. Through writing, small group sharing and listening, and hearing from those who wish to share with the whole group you will get a new taste of the personal nature of the spiritual path.

Young Adult Meeting (May 20)
This month, the Glendale Temple Young Adult Group has arranged for a special visit to Mother Center on May 20th. We will have a social gathering with light refreshments in the Glendale Temple small chapel after the Sunday service.  We will go to Mother Center together afterwards, followed by a lunch gathering nearby. This will be a joint event with Hollywood and Lake Shrine young adults, so you will have the chance to meet more spiritual friends. We hope to see you all there.  

For more information about this event, and to join the Glendale Temple Young Adult mailing list, please email:  glendaleyag@gmail.com 

Sunday Fellowship (May 27)
All are welcome in the social hall after the service. You will be delighted by the treats our chefs surprise us with each month and by fellowship with spiritual friends old and new.

Welcome to

The Glendale Temple is the result of a generous gift to SRF and to all truth-seekers. Everyone is welcome to attend our weekly public lectures, meditations, Sunday School classes for children, and other events aimed to disseminate the timeless teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda and help us create spiritually harmonious lives, and a more compassionate and peaceful world.
