The Ananda Meditation Retreat was a truly enriching and life-changing experience for me! The grounds/gardens are beautiful, the teachers are wonderful and the community is warm and welcoming. I highly recommend this retreat to anyone who is looking to bring more peace and joy into their life. I can't wait to go back!
The Ananda Meditation Retreat was founded in 1968 by Swami Kriyananda, and the guided programs we offer are based on the teachings of his guru, Paramhansa Yogananda. People from all faiths and backgrounds are welcome here.
The Meditation Retreat began as a small retreat center, the first actual focus of what has now blossomed into a global movement to help spiritual seekers realize God in their daily lives as a tangible, loving reality.
The magnetic energy of the Retreat has intensified and expanded over the past several decades. Individuals meditating and living here have greatly added to the profound sense of peace and stillness that pervades the land. The beauty and presence of the Divine is tangibly felt by all who come here.
