This temple is a branch of Self-Realization Fellowship, founded by Paramahansa Yogananda in 1920 to disseminate the scientific method of Kriya Yoga Meditation.
Self-Realization Fellowship 
If you want to know more about Self-Realization Fellowship and the Kriya Yoga meditation techniques, the best introduction is to read Autobiography of a Yogi, published in 1945 by Paramahansa Yogananda.

You may want to explore the SRF Mother Center site, and sign up for bi-weekly SRF Lessons, or read about the aims and ideals of Self-Realization Fellowship.

The Phoenix temple regularly conducts public lecture services on Sundays at 10:00AM. Please refer to our our lecture schedule. Everyone is welcome.

You are welcome to submit a prayer request for yourself, your family, or friends. Monastics as well as lay members pray for those in need and for our world family as a whole.
