Our Spiritual Heritage
Our spiritual lineage is rooted in the teachings of Paramhansa Yogananda, whose teachings have inspired millions to seek a direct experience of God through meditation and balanced spiritual living. To carry this vision into daily life, his direct disciple Swami Kriyananda founded Ananda Village in 1968 as the first of Yogananda's World Brotherhood Communities. Today, Ananda continues to share these transformative teachings, helping people awaken inner joy, expand their consciousness, and live with greater purpose and harmony.
