The art and science of raja yoga as taught by Paramhansa Yogananda and as developed by Ananda’s founder (and direct disciple of Yogananda), Swami Kriyananda is an ever-expanding circle of wisdom and practicality. The classes listed here are just a few of the topics that we offer. Some are offered regularly and others just once in a while.
Wisdom of the Rishis:
Commentaries on the Christian Bible, the Bhagavad Gita, Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, the Rubaiyat, and the timeless revelations of India’s sages are specialities of Ananda. Each Sunday at the Festival of Light Service our readings and talk compare selections from the Bible and the Bhagavad Gita.
Yoga in Daily Life:
A discussion and discovery group focuses on MATERIAL SUCCESS THROUGH YOGA PRINCIPLES based on a 26-part course written by Swami Kriyananda. Metaphysical healing classes and special classes on the healing power of the chakras (subtle energy centers of the astral body) are offered as well.
Classes in how to play the Indian harmonium (musical instrument) are offered in Bothell and at East West Bookshop in Seattle. Even vegetarian cooking classes are given from time to time (at Ananda Community, in Lynnwood).
