Altars

“Silence is the altar of spirit.” -Paramhansa Yogananda

Dear Beloved Community,

Yogananda reminds us that while the truest altar resides within our astral spine, in-home altars hold significant power on our spiritual journey, invoking devotion, inspiration, and heart expansion.

Our altars symbolize our inner attunement, influencing our energy and mood as we interact with them over time. They transcend mere physical objects to become gateways to the transcendent realms of consciousness.

Maybe your altar contains photos of the Masters, or beloved keepsakes from a spiritual pilgrimage, a candle that focuses your attention to the Light, a simple flower or elements of nature whispering tales of the Divine beauty all around us… Perhaps your altar is a special tree. The possibilities are endless!

Let’s inspire one another by sharing images of our altars. This is NOT an in person event. If you’d like to contribute a photo of your altar, please send it along with a message to [email protected] Your submissions will be shared within our community via newsletter.

With love and light, Chela

Deadline to submit photo:  May 15th, 2024. Everyone is encouraged to participate!
