"Death: The Final Exam"- The Essence of the Bhagavad Gita with Swami Kriyananda

Part 53 - Chapter 2, Stanza 27. 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.

@chromakey84 i have not seen a ghost but i have experienced a ghost.When i was 16 i heard a ghostly noise in my bedroom.It was a very loud deep breathing noise which lasted for 10 seconds.It really scared me i was just about to go to sleep when i heard it and put the pillow over my face out of fear and wouldnt move.I was so afraid to look.I have no other explanation for it other than a ghost because the sound appeared from nowhere then it dissapeared.I was alone in my room.

@TheOverfiendDj That is a great question.. Have you seen a ghost? Or well experienced one?

Hi Swamiji nice talk :) what about Ghosts? Are ghosts the spirits of people trapped on this earth?
