In the Grace of Divine Mother 2025

A Spiritual Living Retreat

“We can worship God as Father, but we can also worship God as the Divine Mother—for Mother is closer than the Father.” – Paramahansa Yogananda

We invite you to this 3-day weekend to deeply immerse yourself in the sacred presence and mystical experience of the Divine Mother, through Paramahansa Yogananda’s path of meditation, devotion and chanting. There will be an opportunity to experience a traditional Kali Puja, which Paramahansa Yogananda performed regularly during his youth (as described in the book Mejda). Before going to America, he performed his very last Kali Puja, but his inner communion and devotion to Her never ended—even in America, Yoganandaji spoke often of Divine Mother, and composed many chants to Kali such as Blue Lotus Feet, Thousands of Suns, Receive Me On Thy Lap, Om Kali and more. Tune into the ecstatic love that Paramahansa Yogananda—and many other great Masters—experienced with the Divine Mother, who is both our eternally loving mother and the Cosmic Mother. Learn about this ancient theology of the Motherhood of God, and develop your own personal relationship with Her. Led by Naren K. Schreiner and Lopamudra Bose, who are both trained in India’s traditional worship of Divine Mother, this retreat is an opportunity to join other devotees in the serene and beautiful land of Song of the Morning, and draw ever nearer to the Divine Mother.
