    Yama and Niyama: “How-to-Live” Skills for Inner Strength and Freedom | Brother Chidananda

    Nov 4, 2022 #ParamahansaYogananda #Yogananda​ #Patanjali Brother Chidananda dives deeply into the subject of yama and niyama, the spiritual rules comprising the first two steps in the Eightfold Path of Yoga of Patanjali (enumerated in the Yoga Sutras). Brother Chidananda shares wisdom from Paramahansa Yogananda and his guru, Swami Sri Yukteswar, on how these simple but powerful rules form the true basis for successful practice of meditation. These same universal laws in the yamas and niyamas, Paramahansa Yogananda explained, are found in the scriptures of all great religions of the world; and when we decide to make use of them daily they become a powerful force on our journey to soul freedom. As Brother Chidananda says, these spiritual rules are not our masters but our servants, and he or she is their master who obeys them — creating thereby a solid and enduring foundation on which to build our spiritual lives, and ultimately attain liberation. This talk was given at the 2011 SRF World Convocation; Brother Chidananda became president and spiritual head of Self-Realization Fellowship/Yogoda Satsanga Society of India in 2017. Brother Chidananda mentions at one point an article by Sri Daya Mata, third president of SRF/YSS, which appeared in an issue of Self-Realization magazine. By subscribing to this magazine, founded by Paramahansa Yogananda in 1925, you also have access to an extensive online library of articles from Yogananda and his direct disciples, such as Sri Daya Mata and others, as well as unlimited listening to all the talks released as audio with the magazine: https://bookstore.yogananda-srf.org/p...

    Oct 21, 2022 #ParamahansaYogananda #Yogananda​ #InnerPeace Brother Anandamoy (1922 – 2016), a much-loved and respected minister of Self-Realization Fellowship, explains how we can get beyond too much thinking about the future by concentrating instead on the true source of security to be found in communion with the Divine.  He points out that this earth is not our home, but rather a school in which we are to learn that we are immortal souls and play our roles in this drama of creation from that divine and joyful perspective. This talk was given at the 1983 SRF Convocation at the Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles. During this talk on the teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda, Brother Anandamoy often refers to Yogananda as “Master,” one who is master of himself, a soul that is one with the Divine and able to guide others on the spiritual path. The Self-Realization Fellowship Lessons were established by Paramahansa Yogananda as a home-study course providing his personal instruction in the meditation techniques and teachings needed to achieve balanced living and to discover our blissful soul-nature.

The person who forgives experiences a cleansing and refreshing freedom.

    Streamed live on Nov 13, 2022 • #ParamahansaYogananda #YSS #kriyayoga Self-Realization Fellowship sannyasini Draupadi Mai shares wisdom from the teachings of Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda in her talk on: “Kriya Yoga: Quickening Our Human Evolution.” She begins with a quote by Yoganandaji — “The purpose and goal of Yoga is to regain the lost paradise of soul consciousness by which man knows that he is, and ever has been, one with Spirit.” Draupadi Mai explains that by the specific practice of the sacred science of Kriya Yoga, we can regain that lost paradise of soul consciousness, and by reclaiming our forgotten divinity we can also free ourselves from the fear and suffering that this world of inconstancies brings—and find safety in the ever-new joy of changeless Spirit. “Paramahansa Yoganandaji says that yoga is not only a means for God-communion, but self-transformation; we must consciously attempt to purify unwanted behaviours to prepare us for higher states of realization,” Mai said, explaining how we can anchor our consciousness in our true nature, so we can express our soul qualities of peace, harmony, intuitive insight. Referring to the definition of yoga by the ancient Indian sage Patanjali: “Chitta Vritti Nirodha,” or the cessation of the whirlpool of thoughts and emotions that ceaselessly arise within us, Mai explained: “By Kriya Yoga meditation, the mind and emotions become calm and undisturbed….Then we can also view situations and people with clarity; respond respectfully and clearly to the challenges we face or the activities we engage in; and in all situations to live a dharmic life making wise choices that align with right living.” This discourse was live-streamed on the closing day of a three-day spiritual programme at YSS Ranchi ashram on Sunday, November 13, 2022. *** To attend an upcoming discourse by SRF sannyasini Brahmani Mai, please visit https://yssi.org/BrahmaniMai-Talk *** Learn more about the “Yogoda Satsanga Lessons,” Paramahansa Yoganandaji's home-study course on the science of meditation and art of balanced spiritual living: https://yssi.org/lessons To read Paramahansa Yogananda's “Autobiography of a Yogi”: https://yssi.org/AoY To learn more about how to participate in YSS online group meditations and see the full calendar of events for the YSS Online Dhyana Kendra: https://yssi.org/OnlineMeditation-Cal... *** For the latest content from YSS: https://yssi.org/Eventshttps://yssi.org/YouTubehttps://yssi.org/Books *** #YogodaSatsangaSociety​#HowToLiveWisdom#ParamahansaYogananda#YSS#SelfRealizationFellowship#yogameditation #kriyayoga #evolution

    The Need for a True Guru in One's Life | How-to-Live Inspirational Satsanga | Swami Smaranananda Giri

    Streamed live on Jul 4, 2020 #Yogananda #Guru #YogaMeditation The satsanga includes an opening prayer, a chant, a period of silent meditation, and an inspirational talk by Swami Smaranananda Giri on “The Need for a True Guru in One's Life.” It concludes with praying for all, the practice of Paramahansa Yogananda's healing technique, and a closing prayer. * * * A common man has a limited understanding of the need for a true guru on the spiritual path, and indeed for life itself. Swami Smaranananda shares insights into this topic during the talk. - The guru is the speaking voice of silent God. Also, the guru is the awakened God, awakening the sleeping God in the disciple. The guru creates equality with himself in the disciple. Hence the need for a true Guru in our lives. - A true guru who attained God-consciousness attunes himself with Bhagavan Krishna or Patanjali or Chaitanya or Christ and absorbs the real meaning of their teachings and guides us accordingly. - Even avatars and great ones like Lord Ram, Bhagavan Krishna, Adi Shankaracharya, and Saint Kabir had gurus. That is the spiritual law. - Swamiji also explains, through examples, that a devotee need not necessarily be in the physical presence of a guru to receive guidance - one may do so through devotional and mental attunement. * * * In his “how-to-live” teachings, Paramahansa Yogananda has given to people of all cultures, races, and creeds the means to free themselves from physical, mental, and spiritual inharmonies — to create for themselves a life of enduring happiness and all-round success.

    Mar 30, 2024 #Yogananda #KriyaYoga #spirituality In this talk titled “Making God the Companion of Our Lives,” based on Paramahansa Yoganandaji's How-to-Live teachings, YSS sannyasi Swami Pavitrananda Giri encourages us to develop such love for God that in our every thought He becomes our constant companion. Swami Pavitrananda provides practical guidance and suggestions on how we can cultivate the habit of looking upon God as a friend both in our meditations and in all of our mundane activities — such as our work and personal chores, our daily commute, taking meals, and so on. He also mentions one of the ways to bring God into our thoughts and into our lives, as shared by Yoganandaji: “When you mentally utter the word ‘God,' and keep on repeating that thought within, it sets up a vibration that invokes the presence of God.” By cultivating the friendship of God, we receive an incomparable joy that can transform our lives, helping us navigate its varied challenges to become happy and successful.
