2026 Community Day
With Clear Light Community
July 3 - 5, 2026
Clear Light Community Day: Living in Paramahansa Yogananda’s Spirit of World Brotherhood
“…Master laid out my work and pointed out just what he wanted me to do, and foretold what would happen…”
~Yogacharya reflecting on Paramahansaji’s World Colony vision
All are welcome to join us as we celebrate our blossoming World Brotherhood Community! The extraordinary vision of Paramahansa Yogananda and Yogacharya Oliver Black laid the very foundation upon which our community of spiritual seekers is being built.
Each year, we gather as a community to reflect, reconnect, and explore how this sacred vision continues to unfold in our lives and in the growth of Clear Light. Community Day offers a special opportunity to come together in fellowship, learn more about our ever-evolving community, and share in the inspiration of what is yet to come.
This year’s gathering will include meaningful opportunities for connection, fellowship, and learning. A special highlight of the weekend will be a guided tour of several Clear Light Community homes. Participants will gather at the Wheelhouse for a brief welcome and introduction before touring three community residences and learning more about life within the community. The tour will conclude with refreshments and fellowship, providing time to connect with friends, neighbors, and fellow spiritual seekers.
We hope you will join us for this uplifting weekend of inspiration, friendship, and joyful community spirit.
