Song of the Morning Community
Spiritual communities are places where people live together in the spirit of cooperation and friendship, dedicated toward a common goal. Located on the property is our Clear Light Community, where residents support one another in a balanced life that is joyous and God-centered. Song of the Morning’s spiritual community is rooted in Paramahansa Yogananda’s vision of world brotherhood communities around the globe. He specifically directed his disciple Yogacharya Oliver Black to establish a spiritual retreat where one day one of these communities could flourish. The Clear Light Community at Song of the Morning sprang from these loftiest of human goals passed on to us from Yogananda. Today, this vision is a reality!
