Sunday Bulletin
With music that lifts our spirit, and inspired thoughts that awaken and raise us to new heights, what power of soul will arise within us?
On this Easter Sunday, our music-filled service will share the devotional offerings of the Tuesday Brass Quintet and Golden Lotus Temple Bell Choir. All are welcome.
"Our daily living may enslave our consciousness in the outer world and enchain our cognitive perception. Mind tends to become overfilled with finite thoughts and to be buried under the debris of finite concepts. When awakened from that entombment, soul is resurrected from the grave of ignorance into the light of inherent wisdom. That is the true meaning of Easter as the mystics have realized and revealed."
—Swami Premananda
“Love partakes of the soul itself. It is of the same nature. Like it, it is a divine spark; like it, it is incorruptible, indivisible, imperishable. It is the point of fire which is within us, which is immortal and infinite, which nothing can limit and nothing can extinguish.”
― Victor Hugo
“The resurrected soul lives, figuratively speaking, pure, and tender as a lily, and yet strong and fearless, loving and joyous as the Spring which bursts upon us with its bountiful, astonishing beauty.”
—Swami Kamalananda
“Every morning the day is reborn among the newly-blossomed flowers with the same message retold and the same assurance renewed…”
—Rabindranath Tagore
