Thank you SRF for these recently posted short videos. They are much easier to watch and share. Your posting these videos is like distributing 'online prasad'. Please post lots of them so that the amrit (divine nectar) of Yogananda's love can reach a larger part of untouched humanity.
Ma's words are healing and reassuring,to our minds and hearts. ..Thank you Ma to help us understand our endless link with Guruji and with those whom we love 🙏
Thank you, I offer you and the Elementals, the Powers of Nature and Cetatian Nation INEFFABLE, Limitless Love and Kindness, Marvelous Ascended Master Eternal Youth, Beauty, Inexhaustible Strength, Stewardship, Energy, Indestructible Health, Joy, Humor and Ever-Expanding Perfection, Prosperity, and expanding Thy Glory to all forever!
But aren't we reading books too? And the SRF lessons? How do we know when the Guru teaches us WITHOUT the written word? For example, I would love to have someone really teach me how to improve the practice of the techniques. But the Guru is not here in person to provide such instruction. And having a monastic give the instructions is not the same. Where is the "one on one" training if the Guru is no longer in tbe form? Legit question. Are we like the person who performs open heart surgery by reading a book?
Good question. Paramahansa Yogananda answered this in the Autobiography of a Yogi: "A question I sometimes hear is this: “Is it true, as certain organizations state, that yoga may not be successfully studied in printed form but should be pursued only with the guidance of a nearby teacher?” In the Atomic Age, yoga should be taught by a method of instruction such as the Self-Realization Fellowship Lessons, or the liberating science will again be restricted to a chosen few. It would indeed be a priceless boon if each student could keep by his side a guru perfected in divine wisdom; but the world is composed of many “sinners” and few saints. How then may the multitudes be helped by yoga, if not through study in their homes of instructions written by true yogis? The only alternative is that the “average man” be ignored and left without yoga knowledge. Such is not God’s plan for the new age. Babaji has promised to guard and guide all sincere Kriya Yogis in their path toward the Goal. Hundreds of thousands, not dozens merely, of Kriya Yogis are needed to bring into manifestation the world of peace and plenty that awaits men when they have made the proper effort to reestablish their status as sons of the Divine Father."
