Yogoda
Satsanga Society of India (YSS) is a non-profit religious organisation
founded by Paramahansa Yogananda in 1917. In 1920, he carried India’s
sacred soul liberating science of Raja Yoga to the West where,
in Los Angeles, California, U.S.A., he established the international headquarters
of Self-Realization Fellowship (SRF). YSS/SRF is devoted to the spiritual
upliftment of mankind. Paramahansa Yogananda dedicated his life to awakening
in the hearts of all a deep love for God. He opened the door of his teachings
to all persons regardless of race, caste, or religion, and showed them
the way, through scientific Raja Yoga techniques of meditation, to realise
the Divine and live an ideal balanced life.
