A true yogi may remain dutifully in the world; there he is like butter on water, and not like the easily-diluted milk of unchurned and undisciplined humanity. To fulfill one’s earthly responsibilities is indeed the higher path, provided the yogi, maintaining a mental uninvolvement with egotistical desires, plays his part as a willing instrument of God.Paramhansa Yogananda

Testimonials

Jyotish and Devi's talks surpassed all expectations. I'm returning home with a deeper communion with God and a renewed commitment to extend my daily meditation. The uplifting environment of Ananda Village is so inspirational, as are all the residents. It is truly a privilege to visit at any time, but Inner Renewal Week was special to me.

Just being able to feel enveloped in the energy of the event even though participating remotely is a demonstration in and of itself that space and separation are illusions. Indeed we are one in God. We just have to improve our knowing of this amazing reality. Thank you to all the wonderful speakers who shared so generously of their experiences on the path. Their stories inspire us all to keep trying!

A pivotal week for me. Inspirational morning meditations and talks were followed by deeply calm afternons, which allowed neeed insights to percolate. The vibration of The Expanding Light makes it probably the easiest place on earth to open your heart to God!

Every year I look forward to IRW as the time to renew my commitment to God and Guru, and deepen my connection with them. I feel I am lifted from my every day concerns to deepen the relationship with Master and Divine Mother that is my reason for being. It’s also a time to appreciate what a blessing it is to be a part of the Ananda community and feel our support for one another as our Guru intended. Thank you Master, thank you Swami, thank you presenters, and all gurubais. Jai, Guru!

I've been coming here over 20 years, and Inner Renewal Retreat is hands down my new favorite time to visit Ananda.

What a joy to be here at the Expanding Light for Inner Renewal Week. Being here, meeting new and old soul friends, learning together, growing in inspiration and devotion together has truly been a gift. Thank you to all who’ve put their energy into this life-changing retreat
Kendra J.
This week was inspirational, uplifting, and perfectly orchestrated to my day. Meditation in the mornings, talks that were recorded I could listen while working or after work, chanting/meditation or satsanga in the evening. The talks were helpful by being focused throughout the week on a general topic. I really felt like my practice deepened this week and my need for spiritual community was definitely met. I love having a retreat in place!!
