Paramahansa Yogananda lessons on meditation and spiritual living

What is the real purpose of our life on earth?

Throughout the ages, the mystics, saints, sages, and yogis have all given us the same answer: to develop a personal relationship with God — one that connects us with Spirit in our everyday lives. Spiritual living is a practical approach to developing that relationship.

"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 comes 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."

— Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda

Paramahansa Yogananda has shown that all the knowledge, creativity, happiness, and security we are looking for is right within us, the very essence of our being.

To fully realize this — not just as an intellectual philosophy but as an actual experience that brings strength and understanding into every area of our lives — is what the Kriya Yoga teachings of Yogoda Satsanga Society of India/Self-Realization Fellowship are all about.
