The Phoenix Temple will host a Southwest Regional Retreat on the weekend of April 5 at the Redemptorist Renewal Center at Picture Rocks in Tucson.
The retreat will focus on the teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda; with extended periods of silence, group energization, meditation, classes, and satsanga. It is open to all Self-Realization Fellowship lesson students and Kriyabans.
The Redemptorist Renewal Center is located high in the Sonoran Desert foothills northwest of Tucson. RRC will provide comfortable guest rooms, vegetarian meals, views of the Sonoran Desert, and is the site of ancient Hohokam petroglyphs.
Registration begins March 1st and will continue until all space is filled (usually about three weeks). A flyer containing registration information and a registration form can be printed from the link on this page. The flyer can also be found in the free literature displays at the Phoenix Temple. Before and after the Sunday Services in March you will find a table set up on the patio where a volunteer can answer questions and register you. Registration forms can also be mailed in. Payment may be made by check or cash.
We suggest that you get your registration in as soon as possible as space at the retreat fills up quickly, especially the single rooms.

Friday night meditations are led by either a meditation leader, a monastic or the Kirtan group. This meditation, from 7-9 pm, is designed to be accommodating to both new and experienced meditators. The first hour will have two shorter periods of silent meditation, broken by chanting at 7:30 pm and 8 pm. The second hour will be silent from approximately 8:10 pm until the end of the meditation at 9 pm. The Energization Exercises will be held in the parking lot beginning at 6:40 pm. Please enter or leave the meditation during the periods of chanting so as not to disturb others.
