Inspiration, Devotion, and Community—A Gathering in Divine Joy
“God is nearer than the near; dearer than the dear — knowable as the closest friend.” -Paramhansa Yogananda
You are warmly invited to Ananda Thousand Oaks’ nondenominational Sunday Services, where all truth-seekers and spiritual aspirants are embraced in a community of joy and devotion.
Ananda services include music, a brief meditation, an uplifting talk based on the timeless teachings of Paramhansa Yogananda, and the transformative Festival of Light ceremony—a sacred reminder of our oneness with the Divine, offering insights that will resonate deeply within your soul. Whether you are exploring meditation for the first time or searching for deeper spiritual truths, our doors are open to you.
At Ananda, our services are devotional and free from dogma. If traditional church services have left you uninspired, you will find Ananda services are gatherings for spiritual inspiration and high consciousness. Come gather for upliftment and fellowship – stay after for light refreshments and community.
In the words of Yogananda, “Your religion is not the garb you wear outwardly, the thoughts and beliefs in which you enclose yourself. Your religion is the garment of Light you weave around your heart.” Together, let us weave a garment of Light that unites us all.
Dates & Time: Ananda offers Sunday Services on the first Sunday of each month from 9:30 am – 10:45 am. Stay after for light refreshments and community.
Cost: While Sunday Services are offered on a donation basis, we deeply appreciate any contribution you feel inspired to give, either online HERE or in the basket during the service collection. Ananda is a self-sustaining, nonprofit, nondenominational organization dedicated to spiritual growth and community, rooted in the teachings of Paramhansa Yogananda. Your generous donations help us keep our doors open.
All are welcomed.
