At the heart of Self-Realization Fellowship is a dedicated monastic order founded by Paramahansa Yogananda. &nbsp; Self-Realization Fellowship monks and nuns serve the society&rsquo;s worldwide spiritual and humanitarian work in many capacities &mdash; from publishing the writings and recordings of Paramahansaji and his direct disciples, providing spiritual counsel, and conducting temple services, retreats, and lecture tours, to maintaining the buildings, meditation gardens, and ashrams; overseeing the distribution of the SRF Lessons and books; and fulfilling many administrative, office, and other duties required for carrying on the work of an international religious organization. &nbsp; However, the principal calling of every Self-Realization Fellowship monk and nun is to grow daily in pure love and longing for God &mdash; surrendering all lesser desires of the ego so that God becomes the all-consuming Reality of his or her existence, every moment, every day, until final liberation in Spirit is achieved.

Brother Chidananda, president and spiritual head of Self-Realization Fellowship/Yogoda Satsanga Society of India, will give a special talk to SRF/YSS members and friends worldwide at the close of the 2021 SRF World Convocation. As all who have attended Convocation look to carry back into their daily lives the enrichment, solace, and profound insights from Paramahansa Yogananda’s “how-to-live” teachings — and hold onto the warmth and support of their united efforts — Brother Chidananda will share inspiring and practical thoughts on how to follow the sadhana (spiritual discipline) given by Paramahansaji to gain the deepest awareness of the Divine’s love and protection.
