UPF California

UPF California Join Universal Peace Foundation NA California (UPFCal) in our mission for global peace through Meditation and Yoga.

As a committed non-profit, we aim to bring inner peace and harmony to 1% of the world with our foundational practices. Whatever we do, we search for the end result of happiness. No matter how hard we try, happiness cannot be found through the outside world. One has to dive deep within to find the source of happiness That source is nothing but inner pure consciousness. UPFNA is one of the very few

organizations in the world guiding people to inner happiness through Kundalini yoga and meditation. Kundalini energy is nothing but oneโ€™s own pure consciousness energy. UPFNA was incorporated formally as a non-profit organization in 2005, informally from 1998, with the view to teach yoga and meditation to the public. UPFNA The ultimate aim of the organization is to spread the universal peace through individual peace/inner peace by practicing the Kundalini Meditation. When an individual is peaceful within, the family is happy. When families are happier, the society, nation and gradually the whole world becomes peaceful and blissful. When an individual gains inner peace and persists in that state, one realizes that one is neither the gross body nor the subtle mind but is actually the inner pure bliss. This state is called enlightenment which frees one from the bondage of desires based on body and mind and attains true freedom within. The bliss that is experienced when one is in the state of pure consciousness is indescribable.

๐ŸŒ• Celebrating Guru Purnima 2024 ๐ŸŒ•

Join us in honoring the sacred festival of Guru Purnima, a day dedicated to expressing gratitude to our Gurus who enlighten our paths with wisdom and love.

๐Ÿ•‰๏ธ Significance of Guru Purnima ๐Ÿ•‰๏ธ
Guru Purnima is a day to acknowledge the invaluable role of the Guru in our spiritual journey. It is a time to reflect on the blessings and guidance we receive from our spiritual teachers, who help us navigate the complexities of life and lead us towards liberation.

๐Ÿ™
At the heart of Guru Purnima is the profound relationship between the Guru and disciple. During Dhiksha (Initiation), the Guru absorbs the past sins and karmas of the disciple, imparting true spiritual knowledge. This sacred bond fosters a deep love and reverence for the Guru, who liberates the disciple from the cycles of birth and death.

๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ Path to Peace and Enlightenment ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ
Our Gurus teach us meditation to attain real peace of mind, true self-knowledge, eternal happiness, and liberation from karmas. By following their guidance, we develop a true love for God and a deeper understanding of our purpose.

๐ŸŒŸ Gurumahanโ€™s Sathsang Live ๐ŸŒŸ
Celebrate this auspicious day with us by joining Gurumahanโ€™s Sathsang live on 20th July 2024 at 06:30 AM PST. Tune in Live on YouTube

โ€œOh Guru, you are father, mother, brother, friend,
knowledge and wealth.
You are to us everything and God of all Gods.โ€

What a Weekend! ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŒŸ We wrapped up an unforgettable 4-day advanced meditation and yoga retreat at the stunning Land of Medicine Buddha in Soquel, CA with our beloved GuruMahan. ๐ŸŒฟโœจ

From the break of dawn, we embraced the tranquility with early morning meditation sessions, followed by nourishing, delicious meals ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ. Our yoga sessions ๐Ÿง˜โ€โ™€๏ธ energized us, while deep relaxation ๐Ÿ’ค and intense meditation ๐Ÿง˜โ€โ™‚๏ธ guided us to new depths. The Chakra activations were powerful, and our hearts were opened through deep conversations. We danced ๐Ÿ’ƒ, laughed ๐Ÿ˜‚, and shed tears of joy ๐Ÿ˜ข, forming bonds that will last a lifetime.

Our Q&A sessions with GuruMahan were profound, offering insights into life and the universe ๐ŸŒŒ. Meanwhile, the children thrived in their own yoga camp, making friends and learning new skills ๐Ÿง˜โ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿง˜โ€โ™€๏ธ, allowing parents to fully immerse themselves in the retreat experience.

โœจ What is Inner Awakening? โœจ
Inner Awakening is a transformative journey that aims to unlock your inner potential and elevate your spiritual consciousness. This process involves awakening the core bio-vital life force energy, which lies dormant at the base of your spine. Through specific practices and guidance, this energy is activated and directed upwards, passing through key energy centers, or chakras, along the spine to the brain.

Chakra Activation: This energy is guided through three primary chakras:
๐ŸŒŸ Ajna (Third Eye) Chakra: Located between the eyebrows, this chakra is the seat of intellect and intuition, leading to higher wisdom and enhanced manifestation power.
๐ŸŒŸ Mooladhara (Root) Chakra: Situated at the base of the spine, this chakra grounds the energy and boosts physical strength and endurance.
๐ŸŒŸ Sahasrara (Crown) Chakra: Found at the top of the head, this chakra connects the practitioner to cosmic energy, bringing supreme peace and bliss.

๐ŸŒŸ Why Attend? ๐ŸŒŸ
Feeling stressed? ๐Ÿง˜โ€โ™‚๏ธ Find inner peace and balance.
Struggling with clarity? ๐Ÿค” Gain mental clarity and make better decisions.
Lacking energy? ๐Ÿ’ช Rejuvenate your physical vitality and health.
Seeking purpose? ๐ŸŒŒ Deepen your spiritual connection and discover your true potential.
