If you are learning Kriyayoga meditation at Yog Fellowship Temple, you are experiencing unity between East and West.

But what is East and West? As Guruji Swami Shree Yogi Satyam teaches: "Try to find East, West, South and North within first." These are not only directions on a map β€” they are within our own head and spine, the Brahma Danda, the very axis of our being.

The back, the spine, the medulla, the Bhrumadhya (point on forehead between eyebrows) are the East and North, the source of knowledge.

And the force that unites it all? That is what Guruji calls Christ Consciousness, the same power that holds the electron and proton together in every atom, "present in radiations, energy waves, in all atoms and molecules, everywhere, within me and you."

With every breath, life force flows toward the East and North through the spine. When we keep our awareness on the posterior aspect of the body from head to toes, we begin to feel this flow consciously. We are not merely doing exercises. We are learning, as Guruji says, "how to send Life Force towards the East and towards the North and realize unity within and around."

This is the practical science Mahavatar Babaji commissioned Swami Sri Yukteswar Giri to share with the world, written in the Holy Science to show, as clearly as possible, that there is an essential unity in all religions.

It is what Guruji Swami Shree Yogi Satyam continues to bring to all of us today.

Join us every Sunday at 10:00 am.

Forty-three years ago today β€” May 10, 1983 β€” Dr. Manwel Bedessee founded Yog Fellowship in Kitchener, Canada. That same year, Guruji Swami Shree Yogi Satyam began his sacred mission in India. This shared founding year was no mere coincidence; it laid the spiritual groundwork for Kriyayoga's role in uniting East and West in the 21st century.

May 10th carries yet another blessing: It is the birth anniversary of Kriyayoga Master Swami Sri Yukteswar Giri, whose vision of East-West unity deeply inspired Dr. Bedessee. Through the grace of God, Guruji, and the Self-Realized Masters, Yog Fellowship stands today as a living tribute to that vision.

Yog Fellowship exists to make Kriyayoga meditation available to all who seek it. Trusting in the unfailing guidance of the Masters, we move forward with faith and devotion. We warmly invite you to join us and experience the spiritual vibration of our Centre.

Today, January 5, is the birth anniversary of Sri Sri Paramhansa Yogananda. From Yogananda's Spiritual Diary on this day:

"If I don't see you, remember I am working for you in some other place. My seeing you all the time will not necessarily help you. You will receive more by meditating deeply and regularly. I am not here only to help you in this life, but in the beyond also".

As we welcome the New Year, we offer heartfelt gratitude for our Kriyayoga meditation community. During a December snowstorm, devotees gathered for a mini-retreat, coming together in shared practice, devotion, and fellowship. Sincere thanks to Saraswatimata for lovingly leading the Kriyayoga meditation practice and organizing the vegan lunch. May this year deepen our devotion and inner awakening, remembering those we hold in prayer.

Dear Friends,

We are pleased to announce that our Saturday, December 13th Kriyayoga Meditation mini-retreat has been expanded into a full weekend program. Most notably, three evening meditation sessions have been added, with Guruji Swami Shree Yogi Satyam joining us remotely if connectivity allows.

The Saturday morning mini-retreat will feature guided Kriyayoga practice using recorded teachings and we will join the regularly scheduled 9:00 am EST Zoom session with Guruji depending on his schedule and connectivity. Our regular Sunday morning practice at YFT will also continue as usual.

At this time of the year, Kriyayoga reminds us that the true meaning of Christmas is the awakening of Christ-consciousness within and the realization that God is omnipresent inside each of us. Through sincere practice of Kriyayoga Meditation, we experience ever-new knowledge, peace and joy. We look forward to sharing this spirit together throughout the weekend.

Please find the complete weekend schedule below.

We warmly invite you to participate in this special Christmas Kriyayoga weekend.

With gratitude,
Yog Fellowship Temple
