Meaning of SRF/YSS and ‘Church of All Religions’

Yogoda Satsanga Society/Self-Realization Fellowship ~ One organization, One meaning

Paramahansa Yogananda chose for the name of his organization in the West (his international society) a distinctive translation of the name he had given to the society in India—Yogoda Satsanga.  “Yogoda” (a word he himself had coined) means “that which the science of yoga imparts,” and “Satsanga” means “association with God, with Truth, with good people.”  He translated this name as “Self-Realization Fellowship,” and explained:  “Through Self-realization we have fellowship with God, and in that fellowship, we give divine friendship to truth-seekers in all religions.”vancouver
