Paramahansa Yogananda founded SRF in 1920 for the purpose of disseminating Kriya Yoga, an ancient/definite scientific technique for attaining a direct personal experience with God through meditation. Through Paramahansa Yogananda’s writings, including his bestselling book, Autobiography of a Yogi, he has introduced truth-seekers all over the world to India’s age-old philosophy of Yoga and its time-honored tradition of meditation.

The universal teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda offer a science of spiritual exploration – one that enables us to create for ourselves spiritually harmonious lives, and to contribute to a more compassionate and peaceful world. The Fellowship is dedicated to promoting a greater understanding and harmony among the world’s various religions by teaching the fundamental principle of religion: how to commune personally with God.

“Awake: The Life of Yogananda” was released in 2014. This award winning documentary on the life and teachings of the great master is available at the SRF Bookstore, YouTube, iTunes and Google Play.
