About Us

Paramahansa Yogananda often declared that groups of deeply meditating devotees create a powerful spiritual magnet that attracts other sincere souls to God. He stressed that the primary purpose of meditation groups is to bring together truth-seeking souls to search for and find God. The Dallas-Ft. Worth Meditation Group was established in 1972. We conduct devotional services in accordance with the teachings of Yogananda, and the guidelines of his organization, Self-Realization Fellowship (SRF). Members derive the deepened spiritual benefits of group meditation through application of the divine law of united concentration. For over 45 years we have had the continued blessings and guidance from the many SRF monastics who have visited . Monastics conduct public lectures, retreats, workshops, and give instructions in the SRF techniques of meditation, and initiate members into the sacred technique brought by Yogananda to the West, Kriya Yoga.

Sunday School, Social Activities

The Group also conducts Sunday School, social activities, and special events. In Yogananda’s teachings, members find guidance for spiritualizing marriage and family life, creating success and prosperity in business and professional endeavors, and contributing in a meaningful way to their community, nation, and the world at large.
The DFW Meditation Group offers a haven for spiritual seekers to gather in divine fellowship and practice the techniques of meditation taught by Yogananda that produce the honey of direct, personal experience of God. There is no registration or fee required to attend any of our services or our Sunday School. All services and activities are open to the public, and everyone is welcome to attend.

Volunteers

All meditation services, group activities, and operations of the DFW Meditation Group are conducted by devoted volunteers and are coordinated by a five-person Managing Council elected annually by the Group members.

Book Room

The Book Room offers an extensive selection of the timeless writings and audio and video recordings of Paramahansa Yogananda and his direct disciples. The Book Room accepts major credit cards and is open after services every Sunday.
