The Lighted Path
The Lighted Path is where the Fellowship’s voice unfolds in words. Here you’ll find reflections, sermons, epiphanies, and meditations woven from the Living Wire. Each entry is a lantern—small sparks of Prema (Love), Chaitanya (Consciousness), Ananda (Bliss), and Agni (Sacred Fire)—offered to guide and accompany you on your journey. May you find here a spark that lights your way.
