What time will this be in my time zone?

The organizer lists the event in Eastern Time (America/New_York) and runs it for two hours. Use the Add to Google Calendar or iCal/Outlook options on the event page to convert it automatically to your local time zone.

Is there a cost or ticket required to attend?

The organizer's page doesn't mention a ticket price or registration requirement, only the Zoom link at csaretreat.org. Check that site for current details about access or any donation suggestions before the day.

What should I read beforehand to understand the context?

Yogananda's Autobiography of a Yogi is the best-known introduction to his life, and it includes his account of the final years of his teaching. Reading it is not required, since the event is a meditation. It may deepen your sense of why the day is observed.

À propos de cet événement

Description

This online meditation marks the mahasamadhi of Paramahansa Yogananda, the passing observed each year by students of Kriya Yoga. It is a two-hour guided session on Zoom, open to anyone drawn to this tradition and to sitting with others in meditation on this occasion. It is led by Marty Wuttke, spiritual director of the Center for Spiritual Awareness in Lakemont, Washington.

What to Expect

The session runs from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm Eastern and is held live on Zoom. Marty Wuttke guides the full two hours of meditation. It stands alone as a special event, not as part of a longer program or enrollment sequence. Because it is online, there is no travel involved, and you can sit from wherever you have a quiet space.

FAQ

The session is led by Marty Wuttke, Spiritual Director of the Center for Spiritual Awareness (CSA). The organizer describes it as a special event meditation lasting two hours.

Mahasamadhi is the term for a yogi's conscious final exit from the body, and this event marks that of Paramahansa Yogananda, author of Autobiography of a Yogi. Yogananda is the teacher whose lineage CSA's spiritual path is rooted in. The organizer's page presents the event as a meditation in his memory rather than a lecture or class.

The event is held on Zoom, and the organizer lists http://csaretreat.org as the link. Open that page ahead of time so you know where to find the connection details. The event is online only, with no in-person attendance listed.

It is a two-hour meditation, which is longer than a typical weekly sit. The organizer does not publish a detailed schedule, so I can't say how it divides between silence, guidance or chanting. If you're not used to long sits, arrange a comfortable seat you can stay in.
