Commemoration services for the SRF gurus are deeply spiritual occasions. The chapel will be open one-half hour before the service begins. Please bring a flower offering as a symbol of devotion to God and Paramahansa Yogananda. Please do not smell the flower but save its fragrance as part of the gift meant for God. Please also bring a donation in a sealed envelope as a symbol of loyalty and faithfulness to the cause of SRF. Your donation will be used by SRF for sharing the sacred teachings of Self-Realization Fellowship with other truth seekers.

It is a long-standing tradition in SRF temples and ashrams that a cake will be prepared for Guruji and partaken of at the end of his Birthday Service. Our group will be participating in this tradition.
