We want to continue these live satsangs without health risk or disruption to Swamiji.

Please abide by the following guidelines:

* Please be respectful of neighbors when coming in and out of the Ashram.

* Outside the Ashram gate and in the Jyoti parking lot will be a wonderful place to catch up with fellow devotees.

* The Ashram gate will be opened at 5:15 pm. To avoid interruption during meditation, gates close at 5:30 pm.

* In order to create a reverent atmosphere, please practice Mouna (silence) while inside Swamiji’s Ashram grounds.

* Turn off cell phones before entering the Satsanga Hall.

* For Swamiji’s protection (and yours) N95 masks are required while indoors.

* Walking around the Ashram garden is not permitted until further notice.
