Swami's

Swami's isn't just the name of a pretty beach or a yummy cafe - this Swami's is actually a meditation garden called Self Realization Fellowship. Founded by Paramahansa Yogananda sometime in the 20's, it's a place anyone to meditate, pray and chant for world peace and harmony. A number of years ago, I ventured inside gleaming white walls to the main meditation room and was surprised at the photos on the walls. I was expecting Krishna or Vishnu but found instead Martin Luther King, Ghandi, Mother Teresa, Jesus, and others who serve as inspiration for the power of peace and harmony. Swami's is a treat for the soul as well as the eyes.
