We celebrate both the unity and diversity of all peoples and spiritual paths through the interfaith ministry services we provide.

About
In 1980, Sri Swami Satchidananda, assisted by Rev. Jaganath Carrera, founded the Integral Yoga Ministry. This new ministry created a pathway for non-monastic Integral Yoga students who wished to deepen and formalize their commitment in dedicating their lives to the service of others. Inspired by the selfless example of the Integral Yoga sannyasis (monks), the first group of twenty-two ministers was ordained in July 1980.
