I read the book "Autobiography of a Yogi", by Paramahansa Yogananda as suggested by Roy Eugene Davis . I felt completely, "at home" with those writings and I undertook Kriya Yoga as my spiritual path. This along with my earlier years of spiritual awakenings have given me a very deep awareness of God. Over the years I have held classes in meditation, including many for college students who seemed to be very hungry for truth that could be directly experienced. Currently I have workshops, lectures, retreats and consulting being offered locally as well as in various states throughout the year.(please see the Events page for more information). Small group gatherings are sponsored by those desiring to hold a meditation or full day workshop in their home. Please see the Contact Us page to inquire.

Roy Eugene Davis

When he was 18 years of age, he read Paramahansa Yogananda's Autobiography of a Yogi and immediately sensed a spiritual connection with Yogananda and the kriya yoga tradition. In December 1949, he traveled to Los Angeles, California, to meet his guru (teacher) and was accepted for monastic discipleship training.   Mr. Davis was ordained by Paramahansa Yogananda in 1951 and was appointed as the minister of the Phoenix, Arizona, Self-Realization Fellowship Center in March 1952. In late 1953, aware of a need to learn to live effectively in the secular world, he withdrew from the organization--but not from his relationship with the kriya yoga tradition or his commitment to serve. After 2 years in the U.S. Army Medical Corps at Fort Riley, Kansas, he began his mission as an independent teacher. Since then, he has taught in more than 100 cities in North America and in Japan, Brazil, Europe, West Africa, and India. Read more at:  www.csa-davis.org

THE BENEFITS CAN BE HEALTH   

AND TOTAL FREEDOM   

As a spiritual being, you do not need to be a helpless effect of causes external to your essential (spiritual) nature. Avoid thinking that your mental, emotional and physical conditions, personal relationships or routine circumstances are solely the result of causes over which you have no control. It is unwise to think or say that you are unable to choose how to experience your life. Never affirm that you cannot help yourself to increased wellness and functional freedom. At the core of your being, you are whole and free. Nurture spiritual growth. Read reliable philosophical literature, especially the writings of enlightened people. Meditate regularly until your awareness is established in superconscious tranquillity, and learn to live with a sense of purpose in your life. Know why you do what you do. You will then more easily be self-motivated and goal-directed. We were not born into this world to suffer, to continually cope with challenging conditions, or to struggle to survive. Suffering is due to lack of understanding and inappropriate living. We are here to learn about ourselves and the universe, unfold our innate soul abilities and capacities, live successfully, and be agents of divine purposes. Always start and end your day with these words:   

My enlightened awareness energizes my mind, enlivens my body, and it is the primary cause of my harmonious, supportive, personal relationships and environmental conditions. I always perceive accurately, think clearly, act wisely, and experience orderly events and circumstances in all aspects of my life. I am peaceful and happy.
