Description
"Some people say: "The Western man cannot meditate." That is not true. I gave Kriya Yoga initiation to [Rajarsi Janakananda) shortly after I had met him; and since then I have never seen him when he was not inwardly communing with God.""...A Westerner has stepped forth to show the world the worth indaily life of yoga training. Through him the lives of many...will be profoundly changed and turned toward God."-Paramahansa YoganandaWhen James J. Lynn first met Paramahansa Yoganandain 1932, he was a self-made millionaire who had risen from a poverty-stricken boyhood to become one of the most suc- cessful businessmen in America. Yet, as he later recounted: "I was a totally frustrated man. I had thought money could give me happiness, but nothing seemed to satisfy me. I lived in a state of nervousness, a state of strain, an inward state of uncertainty."That meeting with Paramahansa Yogananda transformed the life of this great American disciple, later known as Rajarsi Janakananda. He began practicing Yoga under the Master's direction, and his rise to spiritual eminence was as meteoric as his material advancement had been. "I have learned to live by inward joy," he declared. Paramahansa Yogananda often spoke of his exalted spiritual stature, and would say to the other disciples, "I hope you will all follow his saintly example." ISBN:0876120192
