Paramahamsa Yogananda Pořadí knih (chronologicky)

Toto je poprvé, co autentický hinduistický jógin sepsal příběh svého života pro západní čtenáře. Jógánanda v něm vylíčil se živými podrobnostmi řadu let svého duchovního výcviku u mistra podobného Kristovi, Srí Juktéšvara z bengálského Šrírámpuru, a odhalil fascinující a málo známou etapu moderní Indie. Jemné, ale pevné zákony, na jejichž základě konají jógini zázraky a dosahují sebeovládnutí, jsou tu vyloženy s vědeckou jasností. Najdete tu barvité kapitoly o autorově návštěvě u Mahátmy Gándhího, Sira Džagadíščandry Bosého a Rabíndranátha Th ákura.Část pojednávající o Jógánandových zkušenostech ze Západu zahrnuje kapitolu o jeho velkém příteli Lutheru Burbankovi i zprávu o autorově pouti v roce 1935 do Bavorska k setkání s Terezou Neumannovou, úžasnou stigmatizovanou katoličkou. Po založení střední školy s jógickým výcvikem v Ráňčí v Indii přijel Jógánanda v roce 1920 do Ameriky jako indický delegát na Mezinárodní kongres náboženských liberálů. Hodně přednášel po Spojených státech a v cizině a je zakladatelem Ústavu jógy v kalifornském Encinitas. Jógánanda je absolventem Kalkatské univerzity; píše nejen s nezapomenutelnou upřímností, ale i s břitkým vtipem.

In this unprecedented masterwork of inspiration, Paramahansa Yogananda takes the reader on a profoundly enriching journey through the four Gospels. Verse by verse, he illumines the universal path to oneness with God taught by Jesus to his immediate disciples but obscured through centuries of "how to become like Christ, how to resurrect the Eternal Christ within one's self." Never before available in its entirety, this landmark work by one of the most revered spiritual teachers of our time transcends divisive sectarianism to reveal a unifying harmony underlying all true religions. A groundbreaking synthesis of East and West, it imparts the life-transforming realization that each of us can experience for ourselves the promised Second Coming -- awakening of the all-fulfilling Divine Consciousness latent within our souls. Yogananda said, "In titling this work The Second Coming of Christ , I am not referring to a literal return of Jesus to earth. He came two thousand years ago and, after imparting a universal path to God's kingdom, was crucified and resurrected; his reappearance to the masses now is not necessary for the fulfillment of his teachings. What is necessary is for the cosmic wisdom and divine perception of Jesus to speak again through each one's own experience and understanding of the infinite Christ Consciousness that was incarnate in Jesus. That will be his true Second Coming."

In this book Paramahansa Yogananda offers prayers and affirmations that beginners and experienced meditators alike can use to awaken the boundless joy, peace, and inner freedom of the soul. Includes introductory instructions on how to meditate. An encouraging guide that teaches us through our own experience how to spiritually enrich our everyday life.
