God’s light is within me and around me.
With the sword of faith in my hand, with the love of God in my heart, I am a warrior of light.

Advent –
The Coming of Christ Consciousness
Advent is a time of preparation for the coming of the Christ Child. There are many advent traditions and rituals that have been passed down through the ages by the faithful, but what can we learn about preparing for Christ if we look through the eyes of a yogi?
Using the teachings of Yogananda and some fun and inspiring observations of the players in the Christmas story, we will explore how we can learn from their example and open our hearts to the newborn babe who offered the path to freedom and union with God.
