We warmly invite you to join us for a special satsang with Swami Amritaswarupananda Puri, Amma's most senior disciple. The topic of Swamiji's satsang will be "Coping in an Uncertain World" and will include a satsang talk, bhajans, prasad, and more. After satsang, a delicious vegetarian meal will be available for non-retreat participants for a modest donation afterwards. 

In addition to this program, Swamiji will conduct a two-day retreat at MA Center Chicago Sat - Sun, Aug 23-24. Click here to learn more. 

Swamiji will be visiting MA Center Chicago as part of a 10-city tour of the US this summer. For more information about Swamiji's tour please click here
