SRF How-to-Live retreats in Encinitas

Encinitas was one of Yogananda's most beloved places: here is the Hermitage where he wrote much of Autobiography of a Yogi, beside gardens on the Pacific cliffs. Self-Realization Fellowship runs its How-to-Live retreat centre in this setting, silent retreats intended, in the teacher's words, as a dynamo of silence where one may be recharged by the Infinite. Guests join the monastics for morning and evening meditation and may attend classes and receive spiritual counselling. There are personal retreats as well as conducted weekends with a more concentrated schedule on the teachings and techniques.
