The audio service “True Vision” will be offered by Srimati Karuna on Sunday, May 17, 2020.

Many of you were able to join us at the eve of this year on December 31st for our New Year's Eve Music and Meditation. You may recall that the response to that gathering was extraordinary. We had more people here in our Church for that beautiful hour of music and meditation than we had even anticipated. A large number of the people came to our Golden Lotus Temple for the first time. It was an inspiring and moving experience to realize the hunger for spiritual expression on a day that is usually observed in a more social and celebratory fashion. It gave us great hope for the new year.

You may also remember my prayer and remarks for that occasion in which I shared a message of 2020 as a year of "Perfect Vision," not with the eyes of sensory vision but with that of inner vision. None of us could have known then that this year would be met by a most "inward" practice of literally staying home and staying inside. This response by not only our country but every country on this earth has been met with countless challenges but also creative and visionary opportunities.

Let us reflect on this "true vision" of the oneness of life with all of its struggles and joys and the meaning that it carries for each of us. It is our responsibility and blessing in the life of yoga.
