Self-Realization Fellowship

Self-Realization Fellowship is a worldwide, non-profit religious organization founded by Paramahansa Yogananda in 1920 with International Headquarters in Los Angeles, California. The Charlotte Meditation Circle is a group of devoted local members of Self-Realization Fellowship.

 

The teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda offer scientific techniques of meditation that lead to a direct, personal experience with God. These lessons contain techniques of recharging the body, concentration, meditation, and a more evolved technique known as Kriya Yoga. These lessons enhance balance in both material and spiritual life.

 

The Chapel is open to the public for services and special activities. You are invited to attend our services - as shown in the Calendar listed - to learn more about the teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda and our regularly scheduled activities. As an introduction, we suggest that you read Paramahansa Yogananda’s Autobiography of a Yogi. Copies of this spiritual classic are available in all major bookstores, public libraries, now available online.
