Welcome to the website of the Montreal Meditation Circle of the Self Realization Fellowship (SRF).
The mission of the SRF, as defined by the founder, Paramahansa Yogananda, is to spread among all nations the knowledge of precise scientific techniques for personal and direct experience of God.
The Montreal Meditation Circle is made up of the members and friends of the SRF. Its activities are open to the public. Regular meditation services are held on Wednesdays from 7 to 9:30 p.m. and Sundays from 10 a.m. to noon. These services take place in a room at Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes Church, at 650 4th Avenue, in Verdun.
As an introduction, we suggest the book Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda, one of the world’s most acclaimed classics of spirituality, which has touched the hearts and minds of millions of people around the world.
The Online Meditation Center allows you to participate in a meditation group from home when it is not possible to go in person to an SRF meditation center.
The SRF lessons are unique in Paramahansa Yogananda’s written work in that they provide detailed instructions on the yogic techniques of meditation, concentration, and energization that he taught, including Kriya Yoga.
