Grateful Gatherings is a global nonprofit organization founded by Br. Rast to empower others to live a meaningful life through living gratefully.
As a minister for Ananda, I saw this opportunity for sharing gratitude together in a group as harmonious with the path of Kriya yoga and the teachings of Paramhansa Yogananda.
“I will find something each day for which to give thanks, and thus form the habit of gratitude for all the good gifts the Father has bestowed upon me.” Affirmation from Paramhansa Yogananda
“In observing people I’ve noticed that the capacity to be grateful is a mark of spiritual refinement. I don’t mean the capacity to express gratitude but to feel it.
Many people express gratitude outwardly, but the real expression of appreciation is not in words but from within. This kind of inner appreciation, which is a feeling of love, is tantamount to attuning yourself to the Divine.” Swami Kriyananda
We start meeting Tuesday October 20th 10 am to 11:30
Meetings will be monthly, on the 3rd Tuesday.
Each month we will have a topic to meditate on and share in conversation with each other. Our first topic will be : “Living Gratefully as a way of life.”
Please contact me directly if you are interested in participating in these Grateful Gatherings with our Senior Sangha group. Once you register with our group you will have access to material to read and study.
With gratitude,
