Who we are
Service, practice, and a welcome for the local community
Seva is selfless service. Dharma is a life lived in balance with the people and the world around us. The mission holds those two together: a steady inner practice, and useful help close to home.
The work follows Neo-humanism, the view that respect reaches past one’s own group, toward people, animals, and the natural world. Meditation and yoga here are taught in the Ananda Marga tradition.
-
Seva
Food sharing, relief, and a practical hand for neighbours who need support.
-
Practice
Meditation, postures, and breathing, taught so a newcomer can begin.
-
Community
Kiirtan, study, and time spent together at the local centres.
What we do
Key activities and services
Four strands of the same work: care for the body and mind, and care for the people living around the centres.
Disaster relief
When flood, fire, or sudden hardship hits, volunteers organise practical aid for the people affected.
Education
Yoga, breathing, and classes on a balanced life. The sessions are arranged for beginners as well as regular students.
Social welfare
Narayana Seva: meals prepared and shared with neighbours who need them, along with other local welfare.
Community gatherings
Devotional singing, short talks, and collective meditation at the Cranbourne and Kingston centres.
