"The Need for a Guru" - The Essence of the Bhagavad Gita Explained by Paramhansa Yogananda

Part 3 - http://www.crystalclarity.com/product.php?code=BEBPB The Essence of the Bhagavad Gita Explained by Paramhansa Yogananda as remembered by his disciple, Swami Kriyananda. This book shares the profound insights of Paramhansa Yogananda, author of Autobiography of a Yogi, as remembered by one of his few remaining direct disciples, Swami Kriyananda.

This revelation of India's best-loved scripture approaches it from an entirely fresh perspective, showing its deep allegorical meaning and also its down-to-earth practicality. The themes presented are universal: how to achieve victory in life in union with the divine; how to prepare for life's "final exam," death, and what happens afterward; how to triumph over all pain and suffering.

Swami Kriyananda worked with Paramhansa Yogananda in 1950 while the Master completed his commentary of the Bhagavad Gita. At that time Yogananda commissioned him to disseminate his teachings world-wide. Kriyananda has in his lifetime lectured, taught, and written over one hundred books based on Yogananda's teachings.

The Essence of the Bhagavad Gita is available from Crystal Clarity Publishers.

What a beautiful man!

[ancientchilde]

This man has dedicated his entire life to serving his guru....and has gone through many, many obstacles....although (BECAUSE) he is a flawed human being who has never given up and continues to serve no matter what others may think of him, he is a tremendous inspiration and guiding light to me. Thank you, Swamiji, for helping me so much when i was first setting forth on this path.

I'll answer your questions via email. This is personal stuff.

How has the gita helped you. I am a 22 year old male and I am at a point in my life right now where I need something to guide my life and influence me.

My father died when I was very young and I know I need direction. Wioll the gita help?

What can I do?

[frigitar]

I have a couple of questions, please.

Is this not against Paramhansa's request to not talk about him in front of atheists? I mean youtube has a lot of visitors who do not like to believe in this way of thought.

And secondly, is it ok to not believe in miracles till one truly sees for themselves? And does something like childbirth qualify as a miracle? Or should we look for something truly illogical and out of normal etc...

Thank you.. I have found this channel at a good time in life :)

[sadhaka7]

Thank you for this explanation..it makes more sense now than yesterday. Drop by drop the teachings are coming more clear and the path is more real

Clouds become beautiful before the sunset, when the sun is shining on them. Human beings become beautiful when the inner sun of God's light shines through them. And the simile holds well after the sunset too, for behold those same clouds then. They become gray, or even black,

and lose their beauty altogether!
