On this day in 1948, Swami Kriyananda, the founder of Ananda, met Paramhansa Yogananda in Los Angels and became his disciple. At his guru’s request, for 65 years and until the day of his passing, Swami Kriyananda devoted himself tirelessly to lecturing, writing, counseling, and guiding many students worldwide. His talks, his music, and his many books have touched the lives of millions. Despite his amazing accomplishments, Swami Kriyananda used to say, “I want to be known as a good disciple.”

Let us follow his footsteps as disciples of the great avatar, Paramhansa Yogananda.

Join us for this online kirtan to celebrate his discipleship anniversary and to offer our deep gratitude for his divine friendship.
