When a great soul leaves the body a great wave of spiritual blessings is released, filling and elevating all those who open themselves to receive it.
During this extra-special, rich and joyful long weekend, we will tune in together with Swamiji and his living legacy, which continues to flourish. Above all, we will tune in to the power of divine light that filled, animated and guided his life.
Swami Kriyananda's presence will become more and more alive in your heart through:
- the touching stories of those who were close to him
- the music
- the ceremonies
- the long meditations
- the kirtans
Various meditation groups and friends from around the world will participate.
It is a time not to be missed with several surprises: for example, you will be able to participate in a Sunday ceremony where Swami Kriyananda himself speaks.
It will be a unique celebration. We look forward to seeing you here.

When we learn to serve with the right attitude, this is a spiritual practice and is called Karma Yoga. The daily practice of Karma Yoga is a joyful and practical spiritual discipline that will benefit every aspect of your life.
