As we approach Easter it brings a sense of joyful expectation to recall that this holiday has, as Paramahansa Yogananda explained, not only great historical meaning in relation to the life of Jesus Christ as an incarnation of the Divine, but also profound significance for our own aspirations of being able to resurrect the latent divine consciousness within ourselves.

This year marks the 100th anniversary of Paramahansa Yogananda conducting the first Easter sunrise service held at the SRF International Headquarters (Mother Center) in 1925. We are happy to announce that on Sunday, April 20, SRF/YSS President Brother Chidananda will lead a special Easter sunrise service livestreamed from the Mother Center.
