Welcome to the Ananda Janaka Foundation!
The Ananda Janaka Foundation is a non-profit foundation dedicated to the support of Ananda Worldwide through Estate Gift Planning.
Ananda is a global movement based on the teachings of Paramhansa Yogananda, who showed how everyone can realize God in their daily lives as a tangible, loving reality.
By including the Ananda Janaka Foundation in your will, trust, IRA or other estate planning, you are supporting the future of Ananda.
In divine friendship,
Parvati Hansen

Probate & Your Estate Planning
Once a person dies their estate (whatever they own at the time of their death) has to be settled. Probate enters into the picture if the total value of their estate is over a certain amount, an amount that varies in each state. In California that amount is currently $166,250. So you can see that even if you simply own a home, your estate may need to go through the Probate process.

Ananda Remembers
A Memorial Website for the Ananda Spiritual Family
Ananda Remembers is a place to remember individuals who have been part of the Ananda spiritual family. These include people who have lived in the Ananda communities and those who have been connected to one of our Centers or meditation groups. It also includes those who have simply had a meaningful spiritual connection with Ananda during their lifetime. We invite you to take a look at Ananda Remembers!
