To facilitate the spread of his how-to-live teachings worldwide including the spiritual principles and meditation techniques of Kriya Yoga Yogananda founded Self-Realization Fellowship (SRF) in 1920 and established the headquarters for his work in Los Angeles, California, shortly thereafter. Join us for each new episode of "The Wisdom of Paramahansa Yogananda."Self-realization is the knowing in body, mind, and soul that we are one with the omnipresence of God; that we do not have to pray that it come to us, that we are not merely near it at all times, but that God's omnipresence is our omnipresence; that we are just as much a part of Him now as we ever will be. All we have to do is improve our knowing. Paramahansa Yogananda Language: en-us Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Spirituality Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it |
