Mahasamadhi Meditation and Kirtan
March 7, 2026 @ 4:00 pm – 8:00 pm PST
Blue Lotus Temple. Free, all are welcome!
On this day in 1952 (and on March 9, 1936) two Self-realization avatars (Paramhansa Yogananda and his guru, Swami Sri Yukteswar, espectively) left their human forms in a super-conscious act of devotional self-offering.
We celebrate not only their ascension but that of great saints of East and West, for we too are destined by our effort and guru’s grace to achieve moksha: soul freedom in God.
Tentative schedule:
- 4 p.m. Chanting and meditation
- 6 p.m. comfort break
- 6:30 p.m. – 8 p.m. Kirtan, inspiration, readings and ceremony.
