- How many different lives and forms we have had! Swami Kriyananda gives us much to consider. The other world he says is much closer to us than we realize. We come and go into the next world - the astral world. Affirm your soul connection and don’t dwell on the past or your errors.
Our higher desires can lift our energy and consciousness and bring us to a better world when we leave this one. Lower material desires hold us to the world and we have to return to this world time and time again to fulfill them. This world is a school. Its purpose is to elevate the students and not the students’ purpose to change the school.
ABOUT SWAMI KRIYANANDA
In 1948 at the age of twenty-two, Swami Kriyananda (J. Donald Walters) became a disciple of the Indian yoga master, Paramhansa Yogananda. Yogananda is best known for his spiritual classic, *Autobiography of a Yogi*. In his book he recalls his experiences growing up in India and his life in America. He writes of meeting the great spiritual master Babaji, and how Babaji reintroduced the life changing meditation technique of Kriya Yoga. He tells of his life with his guru, Swami Sri Yukteswar Giri, of his guru Lahiri Lahiri Mahasaya, and his meeting with Anandamoy Ma. He tells about his experience in cosmic consciousness (samadhi) and his trips to see many of the saints in India and his trip to the Kali temple.
Yogananda moved to America and developed the energization exercises and taught the meditation techniques of Hatha Yoga and especially Kriya Yoga. He founded Self Realization Fellowship and spoke often of the need for world brotherhood colonies.
At Yogananda’s request, Swami Kriyananda devoted his life to lecturing and writing, helping others to experience the living presence of God within. He taught on four continents in seven languages over the course of 65 years. His talks, his music, and his many books have touched the lives of millions. An advocate of simple living and high thinking, his more than 150 books emphasize the need to live wisely by one’s own experience of life, and not by abstract theories or dogmas. A composer since 1964, Walters has written over 400 musical works. His music is inspiring, soothing, and uplifting.
He taught meditation to thousands and has initiated many into the life changing technique of Kriya Yoga. His books and teachings on spiritualizing nearly every field of human endeavor include business life, leadership, education, the arts, community, and science. He wrote extensive commentaries on the Bible and the Bhagavad Gita, both based on the teachings of Paramhansa Yogananda. He is known as the “father of the intentional communities movement,” which began in the United States in the late 1960s, fulfilling Yogananda's dream.
He founded the first of what are now 10 Ananda communities worldwide in 1967 near Nevada City, California. Other Ananda communities have developed over the years to include Ananda Palo Alto, Ananda Sacramento, Ananda Portland, Ananda Seattle, Ananda Los Angeles, Ananda Assisi in Italy, and Ananda India near Delhi and Pune. Each community has a spiritual focus (a teaching center and temple) and a community (homes where members live). More than 1,000 people live in these intentional spiritual communities. Swami Kriyananda’s example of inspired leadership was the reason for Ananda’s success. He uplifted and encouraged people through personal example, spiritual counseling, writing, lecturing, music, and prayer. He trained the current Ananda leaders in much the same way: free from egoic motivation, always placing the spiritual needs of others foremost in all decisions. He was a patient and sensitive teacher, allowing people to learn by experience, and never placing institutional needs ahead of the needs of an individual. “People are more important than things” is one of the foremost guiding principles of Ananda. And “Where there is adherence to dharma [right action], there is victory,” is another.

I met Swami Kriyananda over 40 years ago when Ananda was just getting established. Visited his house along with many others and did satsang together. Swamiji liked to play new songs he wrote on the piano. Later we corresponded over the years. Nothing but fond memories.
When my son was 2 years and eating his lunch in a high chair; he called my name and he told me he picked me to be his mother but didn't pick his father. He then said it was ok with his dad because they are friends now. He said I was the best mother in any lifetime!!😍I am so grateful to have him with me again.
Beautiful!
Wow
Wonderful talk by Swami. The song at the end a prayer. 💖🙏🏵
2:39 go with trust and love
4:12 dont dwell on what you've done wrong
Thank you for this. This really inspires me to let go of past memories. Past dark experiences. Do you know what times I have been cheated by other human beings. I need to let that go. It was just a dream. It was a bad dream bad dream is over. And I’m feeling really good right now. Things have worked out fine for me.
Hi 62orBetter, very glad to hear! Many blessings to you.
Will you let those people who have cheated and betrayed you back into your lives??
His videos are amazing,people need to be more aware of him
Heartiest gratitude🙏
Entertain pure desires that uplift the soul.
His world views is on point. You inspire others
5:45 I was just considering this the other day, but in terms of “I don’t think I’d want a road named after me when I die”, thinking about all the thousands, maybe millions of people who would constantly be uttering my name, or even cursing my name if there were heavy traffic or something. No thanks! Lol
I wish I could have met him! Magical...
I said that same thing to my 12 year old daughter and she told me, " You can meet him in spirit!"
First!!

I can explain. My english is weak. If u want to go to higher astral world u can't go with only practice meditation.meditation helps us to go. At certain level after u reach that level u concentrate on sound that are coming from your inside. That sound pulls you on tenth door or third eye higher astral world .after u reach then your journey begin with your guru. You have initiation.if u want to go in higher reelm
ok so tell me how to reach astral world
I do it during sleep.. wake up between 3.30 am -5.30 am and then go back to sleep.. sleep comfortably,keep your mind and thoughts clear,just focus on breathing,slowly you will reach there,you ll be consious
@@501yogesh really? is it stable or do u get lost in the dreams? because everytime i vivid dream its always changing but im able to remain concious for a good while before i get lost in the dreams.
@@theself999 no it's not dream,it's real,you literally separate your soul from the body,this is where we go after death.
The only difference is that in astral projection you can return back whenever desired.
@@501yogesh also imma set alarm to 3am and do it, also when i wake up at that time do i directly go back to sleep do i stay up for lile 20 to 30 min and then go back to sleep, and jus meditate?
@@501yogesh also will how will meditating separate ma soul?
After the early body dies the soul lives an can go to other planets earth is just one I never want to come back to earth humans are deceitful an eivked
The middle spritual lady singing want ,look like Daya mata: Tamilar Malaysia
Hello. Is the astral universe much bigger than the physical universe? Blessings
Yes, Yogananda said it's much bigger. And then the causal universe is even bigger.
@@AnandaWorldwide Thank you very much for answering me. I suppose that are a lot of great things to discover only in the astral plane, since the astral world is so big. I've heard that the astral plane might be trillions and trillions times larger the the physical universe. All the best.
@@adrianmarchis5852 yes you are right, in the astral realm you are in the place where you can do limit less things, there are no limitations in the astral realm, you can do anything you want but the main question is, even though many people knows about astral projection, even though they do it, still they don't know about the God, they don't know about our existence, why is it that we are not able to communicate with the God or atleast with the spirits who knows about the reality of our existence, I don't understand and this makes me feel very bad, atleast we have the right to know that we are safe after our death or in the next world, I don't care about anything but yaa everyone should be safe, there should not be good or evil in the next world. If there is hell kind of a thing I can't bear it weather I am going in it or any one else, I just hope and wish that everyone stays happy and joyful forever in the next life.
South india first he spoke correct
The way Yogananda presented his music was a miles ahead of yours. Otherwise Namaste.
