"The Vishwa Dharma religion is not meant for a group of people at a particular epoch and country; the Universal Religion is open to all, in any condition, time or place..." -Gurudev
 
 










A cordial invitation to take an active part in the experience of a fresh approach to an ancient religion...
 
The Congregation Program is an extension of the loving and growing Vishwa Dharma Mandalam family. Through the Congregation Program, participants have the opportunity to establish a close relationship with the organization and to practice sadhana under the guidance of Swami Ramakrishnananda’s senior disciples. We meet on one Sunday each month in our Manhattan temple from 2-5pm to explore deeply different aspects of sadhana and the spiritual path. Some of these topics may include: japa, Vedic chanting and philosophy, meditation, Bharatanatyam, study of sacred scriptures, and other forms of learning and spiritual practice.
 
This is a unique opportunity to learn more about Gurudev's approach to Hinduism, strengthen your spiritual practice, enjoy sadhu-sangha, and to become closer to Gurudev. The congregation also receives monthly email updates on upcoming events, service opportunities, website updates and the latest wisdom from Gurudev.
 
 
 "Authentic religion is not only about building taller and larger temples, but elevating and making greater the souls of its believers; not only about increasing the number of its followers, but expanding their hearts." -Gurudev
