About the Author

Hailed as "the father of Yoga in the West", Paramahansa Yogananda is regarded as one of the great spiritual figures of our time. Born in India on January 5, 1893, he devoted his life to helping people of all races and creeds to realize and express more fully in their lives the true beauty, nobility, and divinity of the human spirit. After graduating from Calcutta University in 1915, Yogananda took formal vows as a monk of India's venerable monastic Swami Order. Two years later, he began his life's work with the founding of a how-to-live school since grown to twenty-one educational institutions throughout India where traditional academic subjects were offered together with yoga training and instruction in spiritual ideals. In 1920, he was invited to serve as India's delegate to an International Congress of Religious Liberals in Boston. His address to the Congress and subsequent lectures on the East Coast were enthusiastically received, and in 1924 he embarked on a cross-continental speaking tour. Over the next three decades, Paramahansa Yogananda contributed in far-reaching ways to a greater awareness and appreciation in the West of the spiritual wisdom of the East. In Los Angeles, he established an international headquarters for Self-Realization Fellowship, the nonsectarian religious society he had founded in 1920. Through his writings, extensive lecture tours, and the creation of Self-Realization Fellowship temples and meditation centers, he introduced hundreds of thousands of truth-seekers to the ancient science and philosophy of Yoga and its universally applicable methods of meditation. Today, the spiritual and humanitarian work begun by Paramahansa Yogananda continues under the direction of Sri Daya Mata, one of his earliest and closest disciples and president of Self-Realization Fellowship/Yogoda Satsanga Society of India since 1955. In addition to publishing his writings, lectures and informal talks (including a comprehensive series of Self-Realization Fellowship Lessons for home study), the society also oversees temples, retreats, and centers around the world.

Of all of Master's recorded talks, this is one of my favorites. With such love, empathy, charm and enthusiasm, Guruji talks about removing physical, mental and spiritual suffering by its roots so there is no recurrence. I could listen to him talk for hours on end. His voice never gets repetitive and tiring for me. Each time I listen to his talks, I learn something new that I didn't realize before.

Yoganandaji speaks from the heart. Wherever you are on the spiritual path you will find something in this talk that will help you live a happier, more spiritual life.

I always find Yogananda's words to be very pertinent and helpful in dealing with everyday issues. I have been a follower of SRF for many years.

Not only is this CD full of rich wisdom and guidance, but that the Seeker gets to hear the actual voice of a saint (Yogananda) in moder times - is priceless. His voice is full of courage, strength, and clarity. Just hearing it helps one to rise above one's own personal obstacles. It enlives you with his own power.
