“If anything disturbs your peace, practice having faith that divine grace is already actively at work restoring wholeness and well-being.

Then make any necessary adjustments in harmony with that insight.”

Celebrate with BLC! Thriving in Grace and Gratitude
Acharya Paula Vandana Whang-Ramos

"We should begin to build world unity…There should be centers of meditation
all over the world, where devotees come together to commune with God…
Such temples, dedicated to the one God that all religions worship,

should be built everywhere. I predict that this will come about.”
~Paramahansa Yogananda,
Man's Eternal Quest p. 14. 52

On November 6, 2014, Yogacharya O’Brian blessed into being the Blue Lotus Kriya Yoga Meditation Center in Gilroy, CA. For the past 12 years, BLC has freely offered Kriya Yoga and Superconscious Meditation to sincere seekers of inner peace and wholeness. But the spiritual wind beneath the wings of BLC runs much deeper than the activity of the past 12 years.

Blue Lotus Center was birthed from the vision, energy, and intention of our beloved Spiritual Teachers who came before, Mahavatar Babaji, Lahiri Mahasaya, Swami Sri Yukteswar, Paramahansa Yogananda, Mr. Roy Eugene Davis, and Yogacharya Ellen Grace O'Brian. The spiritual heart of BLC is based on the unity, inclusion and realization of all beings as diverse emanations of this One Source, commonly referred to as God. Blue Lotus Center continues to serve in the stream of grace and gratitude for our beloved Spiritual Teachers, still committed to our soul freedom, even today.

On November 11th, join us at BLC for a special gathering to honor our Teachers and to celebrate Oneness, unity, and soul freedom for all. Receive inspiring teachings from these Wise Ones and participate in a special ritual to offer our gratitude for the Teachers and the Teachings that continue to bless us. Learn how we can thrive in this stream of divine grace and gratitude in the coming year. All are welcome.

Join us at BLC for meditation, spiritual study, and contemplation. Gift yourself time to receive and remember the presence of divine wholeness emanating through your mind/body right now. Blue Lotus Kriya Yoga Meditation Center welcomes sincere seekers from all backgrounds. Beginning and experienced meditators from all traditions are welcome at all gatherings.
