About Your Minister
My name is Reverend Sushumna Dinah Pemberton, and I would like to share a little about myself with you. I was ordained a OneSpirit Interfaith Minister. I am a Minister who is still on a journey of learning and discovery, exploring all that there is to understand about the profound mystery of life, particularly through the lens of God’s Divine Presence and Guidance. I often find myself pondering why I was chosen to be a Minister, but I trust and believe that there is a much greater purpose behind my calling…
I am based in Manchester, UK. I am the founder and driving force behind the unique initiative known as Reclaiming Your Virginity. With over 15 years of dedicated experience in the field, I am a qualified Person Centred Counsellor who is deeply committed to helping others navigate their unique personal journeys toward empowerment, healing and self-discovery.
I have a BA Honours in Leadership and Management in Children Services and an MSc in Consciousness, Spirituality & Transpersonal Psychology specialising in Creative Transformation.
I have experience with liaising with multiple agencies and working with adults, couples, families, children and young people. I am empathic listener and committed to guiding and accompanying individuals in their search for God’s Love and to accept themselves for who they are.
Reverend Sushumna Dinah Pemberton commits herself to the Sushumna Chapel Values, Ananda’s 12 Precepts, Ananda Spiritual Ethics and the BACP Ethics Guidelines for good working practice and to promote integrity in her work, spiritual practice and personal development as a OneSpirit Minister.

The Great Masters
Throughout Sushumna Chapel, you will see an altar or pictures of five Great Masters of Self-Realization who we pray to, who help inspire and guide us on our spiritual path. Their images remind us that we can experience God-Consciousness and God’s Love when we offer ourselves to them as our Divine Friends.
Paramhansa Yogananda developed deep relationships with each Master where he displayed their pictures in all of his Self-Realisation Centres and Churches. Swami Kriyananda also did the same for all of Ananda Sangha Worldwide Centres and Ananda Village. You can find more information about the Masters below and in Paramhansa Yogananda's book Autobiography of a Yogi.
As Sushumna Chapel is inclusive and welcomes all faith paths we also invite the God of your understanding and the language of your heart.
