We welcome you to this website of the Minneapolis Meditation Group (MMG) of Self-Realization Fellowship (SRF). SRF is an international nonprofit religious society founded in 1920 by Paramahansa Yogananda. The society is dedicated to carrying on the spiritual and humanitarian work that he began—seeking to foster greater harmony and understanding among those of all races, religions, and nationalities, and introducing to truth-seekers all over the world his universal teachings on the ancient science of Yoga.
SRF offers many online resources for meditators accessible from their homepage, including recorded meditations, kirtans and inspirational talks by monastics. In particular, many MMG members regularly participate in the SRF Online Meditation Center.
In addition to our regular Saturday and Sunday services we offer the following special events and services:
