Description

Founded in 1950 by Paramahansa Yogananda, the site was established as an open haven dedicated to peace, meditation, and interfaith harmony. Across the landscaped grounds, visitors encounter quiet greenery, a distinctive windmill chapel, and designated silent spots for self-guided meditation. Maintained by welcoming volunteers, it offers an unhurried setting designed around reflection, complete with regular Sunday morning services.
