The Wisdom Stories Series from the Teachings of Paramhansa Yogananda They enter into our consciousness, captivating our imagination with interesting characters and fantastic storylines. Beneath the surface, they recount the age-old human drama with circumstances and plots not so very different from our own. Certainly parallels, and more importantly lessons, can be drawn that continue to instruct, and to change the way we live and relate to one another. This second volume in the WISDOM STORIES SERIES picks up where volume one left off, with stories shared by the great yoga master Paramhansa Yogananda (author of the best-selling spiritual classic title Autobiography of a Yogi) and his close, direct disciple, Swami Kriyananda. These stories have been told for generations, imparting universal values of compassion and understanding, virtue, dharma (right action), and the ability to relate to another’s reality. About The Wisdom Stories Series Each story is followed by a “wisdom gem,” shedding light on such spiritually central topics as courage, unconditional love, faith, and wisdom. Whether you are a teacher, parent, student, or devotee, these stories are an excellent resource to turn to again and again for inspiration, sharing, and personal study.Excerpt from...Stories from India, Volume Two by Paramhansa Yogananda Introduction The research for Stories from India by Paramhansa Yogananda unearthed many wonderful tales that continue to inspire, offer deep insights, and overall, entertain our hearts and lives. It is our joy to offer to you this second volume. Stories are a powerful teacher. They enter into our consciousness, captivating our imagination with characters and fantastic story lines. Beneath the surface, they reveal the age-old drama of humankind with circumstances and plots not so very different from the times we live in today. Certainly parallels, and more importantly lessons, can be drawn that continue to teach and change the way we live, the way we relate to one another. I have met many people from around the world, reared on traditional stories unique to their culture. These stories have imparted lifelong traits of compassion and understanding, virtue, dharma (right action), the ability to relate to another’s reality. As a universal medium they reach into the hearts of all God’s children — young and old — delivering timeless truths in ways easy to digest and assimilate. Perhaps, more than anything, this is why Paramhansa Yogananda enjoyed sharing stories and why his direct disciple, Swami Kriyananda, did the same through his lectures, satsangs and many books. Such stories allowed people to relax, be fully present and receptive, and understand truths and subtleties they might otherwise have missed. Certainly these stories opened doors of understanding and continue to do so. For your pleasure and reference, we have cataloged these stories according to their predominant spiritual quality in addition to the typical Table of Contents by title. It is our hope that you enjoy these stories, take the time to be with them, and share them with your friends in the company of the master storyteller himself, Paramhansa Yogananda, in your own heart. Boundless Blessings,Nayaswami Maria Humility The Most Humble God Ages ago, Saint Bhrigu of India had a desire to find the most humble form God had ever taken. He wandered all over the Himalayan Mountains and the holy places in search of some incarnation of God he could accept as a guru. But, since he wished an example of humility to follow, he determined that the God must have this attribute. He met many Saints, whom he questioned as to where he could find such a god-guru. After a strenuous search, he found that all the Saints that he met gave him the names of the same three forms of God, Brahma, Shiva, and Vishnu, who was then incarnated as Krishna — and assured him that one of them was sure to be the right one. Saint Bhrigu heard that Brahma could create anything, Shiva could destroy anything, and Krishna (Vishnu) could preserve anything from annihilation, for they represented the creative, destructive, and preservative principles active in all Creation. Bewildered as to who was the humblest and greatest of the three, he conceived a queer plan to test them. His great powers, gained through meditation, enabled him to leave his body and find God, in the form of Brahma, on the astral plane. Without much ceremony of introduction, in a very disrespectful manner he began to criticize him. “Hey, Brahma, what is the matter with you? Why don’t you stand up and greet me when I come?” Brahma inwardly was astonished at the audacity of this mortal man and retorted: “Do you know to whom you are talking?” “Yes sir,” said Bhrigu, “of course, I know that I am talking to that despicable God who is the creator of vermin, plagues, mosquitoes, diseases, criminals, and all ugly things in Creation. Why don’t you reform yourself and create only good things?” Brahma was beside himself with wrath and threateningly replied: “Get back to earth before I convert you into a stone by the gorgon gaze of my will.” Saint Bhrigu laughed at him and left, saying: “O no, you cannot hate me or make me into a stone, for God and I are One.” Brahma suddenly awoke from his error and apologized. Then Bhrigu said: “I forgive you Brahma, but I am disappointed not to have found in you what I wanted to see.” Then Bhrigu repaired to Shiva, who was seen getting ready to meditate on all the things beyond their prime that must be brought to an end. As soon as Shiva’s form met the gaze of Bhrigu, the Saint shouted savagely: “Hey, Shiva, you Grand Cosmic Killer, why don’t you stop shattering worlds, murdering innocent babies, and inventing ingenious death-dealing devices? Why don’t you cease destroying the beautiful and useful things and beings of the earth and get busy annihilating the wicked things?” Shiva could not believe his ears, that a mortal man like Saint Bhrigu could be so audacious and free with his speech. He shouted: “Shut up, or I will reduce you to ashes with the burning magnetism of my Spiritual Eye.” Saint Bhrigu derisively retorted: “Fine use you will make of your Spiritual Eye. Go ahead, I dare you to burn up the God in me, you Grand Killer!” Shiva remained paralyzed with anger and speechless at the awakening words of Saint Bhrigu, who soon melted away from his sight, saying: “Oh, what a disappointment you are.” At last, almost despairing because he could not find the world’s most humble God, he skeptically resorted to the third God — Vishnu, who controlled the preserving principle of the Cosmos. But this time he stayed on earth and sought out the prophet Krishna — in whom these great powers were manifesting. Saint Bhrigu found Prophet Krishna sound asleep on a sofa in his palace. He stood there watching the halo of peace radiating from the prophetic face of Krishna. Then, unable to think of any way to test him, in a fit of emotion Saint Bhrigu kicked Krishna on the chest, shouting: “You sleeping fool, wake up, see who is here.” Krishna awakened with the sweetest, most undismayed, loving smile, and quickly picked up the kicking foot of Saint Bhrigu, and while massaging it, he said gently: “Ah, my Lord Bhrigu, is your foot hurt?” Saint Bhrigu, beside himself with simultaneous visitations of remorse and joy, cried out: “I have found him. I have found him. O, Prophet Krishna, Thou art the world’s most humble Being, even as God is. Thou art, O Krishna, the greatest, the most humble form of God. You can teach me. I accept you as my Guru. Will you accept me?” And Krishna accepted Bhrigu as his disciple. Wisdom Gem Now, dear friends, you realize that if you want to know the greatest of all Beings, the wisest in the Cosmos, our God, you must be humble, for the humble man makes a charming altar for God in himself, and establishes his altar of humility in every heart that he meets. — by Paramhansa YoganandaContents Introduction xi Humility The Most Humble God The Three Gods and the Lord of Gods 10Sustainer of the Universe 16 Faith The Fisherman and the Hindu Priest 21God Alone 25 Right Action (Dharma) The Reward of Virtue 31The Story of a Man Who Was Healed by Suggestion 38 Self-Control Sadashiva Takes a Vow of Silence 43The Saint Who Ate Fire 45Spiritual HappinessThe Himalayan Musk Deer 53The Philosopher’s Stone 55 Non-Attachment A Fearful Disease 65The Man Who Wouldn’t Be King 67The Wishing Tree 73The Woman Who Loved God as Her Son 77The Power of Delusion 82The Man, the Donkey, and the Boy 85The Farmer Who Dreamed His Sons Were Killed by a Cobra 88 Truthfulness Guru (Preceptor) Nanaka 93The Saint Who Went to Hades Speaking Truth 97 Devotion The Story of Sri Chaitanya 109Radha, the Greatest of the Gopis 113 Willpower The Holy Squirrel 119The Bandit and the Bull 124 Wisdom Getting Out of Delusion 133Six Blind Men and the Elephant 135That Moral Backbone 140 Indices Index: Stories Listed by Their Spiritual Qualities 145Index: Spiritual Qualities Listed by Their Stories 152 Bibliography 158 About the Storyteller — Author Paramhansa Yogananda 160 Further Explorations 163

Scientific Healing Affirmations is a beloved classic book of the great yoga master, Paramhansa Yogananda (1893-1952), author of Autobiography of a Yogi. This is a reprint of the original 1924 classic by Yogananda: a pioneering work in the field of self-healing and self-transformation. Yogananda explains that words are crystallized thoughts, and have life-changing power when spoken with conviction, concentration, willpower, and feeling. This book offers far more than mere suggestions for achieving positive attitudes. Yogananda explains in simple language how affirmations can recreate us—physically, mentally, and spiritually. He offers us more than mere suggestions for a positive attitude, showing us how to impregnate our words with spiritual force. This little book will be a treasured companion on the road to realizing your highest, divine potential. Added to this text are over fifty of Yogananda’s well-loved “Short Affirmations,” taken from issues of East-West and Inner Culture magazines from 1932 to 1942. This little book will be a treasured companion on the road to realizing your highest, divine potential. Man's word is Spirit in man. Words are sounds occasioned by the vibrations of thoughts. Thoughts are vibrations sent forth by the ego or soul. Every word that leaves your mouth ought to be potent with genuine soul vibration. The words of most people are lifeless because they are spoken automatically, without being impregnated with soul force. Too much talking, exaggeration, or falsehood is like shooting bullets out of a toy gun, without the gunpowder. That is why the prayers or words of such people do not produce any desired changes. Every word you utter must represent not only Truth, but also some of your own realized soul force. Words without soul force are like husks without the corn. Words that are saturated with sincerity, conviction, faith, and intuition are like vibration bombs, which can explode the rocks of difficulties and create the change desired. Avoid speaking unpleasant words, even if they are true. Sincere words or affirmations repeated understandingly, feelingly, and willingly are sure to move the omnipresent Cosmic Vibratory Force to render aid in your difficulty. Appeal to that Force with infinite confidence, casting out all doubt. If your affirmations are spoken with disbelief, or while looking for the desired result, your attention is deflected from its mark. You should not sow the vibratory prayer seed in the soil of Cosmic Consciousness and then continually pick it out to see if it has germinated into the desired result. —Paramhansa Yogananda, excerpt from Scientific Healing Affirmations, Crystal Clarity PublishersContents 3 Spiritual Power of Man’s Word 5 The God-Given Power of Man 8 Mental Responsibility for Chronic Diseases 11 What Cures? 12 Cure According to Temperament 16 Two Factors in Healing 17 Faith More Important Than Time 19 Classification of Healing 21 To Prevent Physical Disease24 To Prevent Mental Disease 25 To Prevent Spiritual Disease 27 Evaluation of Curative Methods 31 Consciousness and Vibration 33 Difference Between Matter and Spirit 36 Body and Consciousness Created by Man in the Dream State 37 World Illusion 39 Underlying Unity of Medical and Mental Cures 41 Danger of Blind Denial of Matter 43 The Body as Materialized Vibration PRACTICING AFFIRMATIONS 47 The Different States of Chanting 49 Superconsciousness—Not Unconsciousness 50 Physiological Centers 52 Value of Different Methods of Cure 54 Individual and Group Directions 58 Preliminary Rules to Be Observed Before Affirmations 60 General Healing Affirmation 66 Short Affirmations 69 Thought Affirmation 70 Will Affirmation 71 For the Development and Right Guidance of Reason and Cure of Dull Intelligence 73 Reason Affirmation 74 Short Affirmations 76 Wisdom Affirmation 79 Short Affirmations 82 Success Affirmations (for Healing of Unsuccess Consciousness) 84 Material Success Affirmation 86 Short Affirmations 88 Spiritual Success 89 Spiritual Success Affirmation (for Healing the Soul’s Ignorance) 90 Short Affirmations 92 Healing Others 93 Psychological Success Affirmation 95 Affirmation for the Eyes 98 Physical Exercise for the Stomach 99 Exercise for the Teeth 100 For Regulating Sex Force 103 For Curing Bad Habits 105 Freedom Affirmation 106 Short Affirmations

Conversations with Yogananda This is an unparalleled firsthand account of Paramhansa Yogananda and his teachings, written by one of his closest students. Yogananda is one of the world's most widely known and universally respected spiritual masters. His Autobiography of a Yogi has helped stimulate a spiritual awakening in the West and a spiritual renaissance in his native land of India. More than half a century ago, in a hilltop ashram in Los Angeles, California, an American disciple sat at the feet of his Master, faithfully recording his words, as his teacher had asked him to do. Paramhansa Yogananda knew this disciple would carry his message to people everywhere. Kriyananda was often present when Yogananda spoke privately with other close disciples; when he received visitors and answered their questions; when he was dictating and discussing his important writings. Yogananda put Kriyananda in charge of the other monks, and gave him advice for their spiritual development. In all these situations, Kriyananda recorded the words and guidance of Yogananda, preserving for the ages wisdom that would otherwise have been lost, and giving us an intimate glimpse of life with Yogananda never before shared by any other student. These Conversations include not only Yogananda's words as he first spoke them, but also the added insight of an intimate disciple who has spent more than 50 years reflecting on and practicing the teachings of Yogananda. Through these conversations, Yogananda comes alive. Time and space dissolve. We sit at the feet of the Master, listen to his words, receive his wisdom, delight in his humor, and are transformed by his love.

Conversations with Yogananda This is an unparalleled firsthand account of Paramhansa Yogananda and his teachings, written by one of his closest students. Yogananda is one of the world's most widely known and universally respected spiritual masters. His Autobiography of a Yogi has helped stimulate a spiritual awakening in the West and a spiritual renaissance in his native land of India. More than half a century ago, in a hilltop ashram in Los Angeles, California, an American disciple sat at the feet of his Master, faithfully recording his words, as his teacher had asked him to do. Paramhansa Yogananda knew this disciple would carry his message to people everywhere. Kriyananda was often present when Yogananda spoke privately with other close disciples; when he received visitors and answered their questions; when he was dictating and discussing his important writings. Yogananda put Kriyananda in charge of the other monks, and gave him advice for their spiritual development. In all these situations, Kriyananda recorded the words and guidance of Yogananda, preserving for the ages wisdom that would otherwise have been lost, and giving us an intimate glimpse of life with Yogananda never before shared by any other student. These Conversations include not only Yogananda's words as he first spoke them, but also the added insight of an intimate disciple who has spent more than 50 years reflecting on and practicing the teachings of Yogananda. Through these conversations, Yogananda comes alive. Time and space dissolve. We sit at the feet of the Master, listen to his words, receive his wisdom, delight in his humor, and are transformed by his love.

Start and end your day with a gem of inspiration with these carefully chosen excerpts from The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam Explained, Autobiography of a Yogi, TheEssence of the Bhagavad Gita, and more! One day, as I was deeply concentrated on the pages of Omar Khayyam’s Rubaiyat, I suddenly beheld the walls of its outer meanings crumble away. Lo! vast inner meanings opened like a golden treasure house before my gaze. — Paramhansa Yogananda Moments of Truth, Volume One: Excerpts from The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam Explained is the first in a series of small books of excerpts from the teachings of Paramhansa Yogananda, as set forth in his own books and in those of his close disciple, Swami Kriyananda. The gems of wisdom in this little volume are taken fromYogananda’s commentaries on The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, considered by Westerners a celebration of earthly pleasures, but widely recognized in the East as a work of profound spirituality. Yogananda’s commentaries are a true scripture in their own right. These selections have scripture’s power to change your consciousness, and your life. From the book: “Behold this one flaming truth: All life is fleeting. Cling to that understanding, and seek, then, within yourself that which alone endures.”Moments of Truth, Volume One Excerpts from The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam Explained By Paramhansa Yogananda Edited by Swami Kriyananda ( J. Donald Walters) Introduction This book contains nuggets of wisdom excerpted from one of the great works of modern times: The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam Explained, by Paramhansa Yogananda. The excerpts here contained are not from the poem itself, but from the commentary. They are words to live by: wise insights by one of the great spiritual figures of our times that have the power profoundly to change people’s lives. As Yogananda explains in The Rubaiyat . . . Explained, Omar Khayyam’s work is deeply spiritual; it is not, as most Westerners believe, a poem in praise of earthly pleasures. Taking the inner meaning of this work to ever greater depths, Paramhansa Yogananda produced one of his own deepest and most profoundly moving spiritual works. — Swami Kriyananda The Excerpts Stanza 6—God is Eternal Silence. To those who love Him purely He speaks through the voice of silent intuition. Stanza 7—Waste not these few, precious earth years. The bird of life has but a short arc of time to fly. Soon — ah, how sadly soon! — it will slip its earthly form and vanish into the Infinite. Stanza 9—Odiscerning one! rise above life’s dualities, above the endless gradations of relativity. Lo! every plan for success, so wantonly embraced; every looming disaster, so fearfully denied — all have as their sum total: zero! What are they but fictions — fleeting mind-children in life’s constantly changing dream. Ignore them!

Hope for a Better World! In these turbulent times when wars, religious strife, stifling bureaucracy, and urban decay threaten our very humanity, reducing us to social statistics, a fresh approach to the creation of a truly viable society is desperately needed. In this intellectual tour de force J. Donald Walters analyzes with deep insight the views expressed by many of the great thinkers in the West, including Plato, Copernicus, Machiavelli, Malthus, Adam Smith, Charles Darwin, Karl Marx, and Sigmund Freud. He studies their conceptions and misconceptions about the individual’s relation to himself and to society. He shows where their influence has proved adverse, then offers deeply considered, fresh alternatives. Walters urges the reader to resist the hypnosis of “intellectual authority.” Seek the key to a happy and fulfilled life, he says, in personal integrity. In his last chapter he draws on his own experience in developing cooperative communities. He describes how they can encourage a commonsense way of life, deepen human relationships, and inspire people to fulfill their own higher potentials. Hope for a Better World! offers compelling solutions to many of the challenges that face humanity today. Indeed, it succeeds—originally and excitingly—in offering real hope for a better world.Contents Preface 1. The Utopian Dream 2. Copernicus: Center, Anyone? 3. Machiavelli and Social Governance 4.

Paramhansa Yogananda came with a world-redeeming message and brought great souls to help him make it known. One of those great souls was Swami Kriyananda. Many times, Yogananda told Kriyananda, “You have a great work to do.” After his death, Yogananda’s chief disciple, Rajarshi Janakananda, repeated the commission: “You have a great work to do, and Master will give you the strength to do it.” What was it like to work with a soul whose entire energy and consciousness were dedicated to the service of his guru? Nayaswami Padma writes: “My time with Swami was precious beyond the ability of words to express…. Every moment in his presence was a moment when I felt closer to God.” With this book, Nayaswami Padma shares the priceless blessings of her many interactions with a great direct disciple of an avatar, a world teacher who was one with God. Swami’s words are not only profound, they are practical and help guide us in all areas of our life.

Material Success Through Yoga Principles Are you satisfied with your life as it is? Do you want to keep pushing forward, armed only with grit and determination? Or would you like to learn how to align your will with the power of the universe? This book can transform your life at its core. This is the opportunity that stands before you now. Material Success through Yoga Principles is in a sense, an autobiography of perseverance and loyalty to principle until success is achieved.

Many people, Paramhansa Yogananda said, fail to succeed in life for lack of what he called “spiritual adventurousness.” Successful people are those who have the imagination, and the courage, to embrace new ways of doing things, even if others scoff, or turn away.Contents Introduction Lessons: 1.

SONGS OF THE SOUL Original Writings of Paramhansa Yogananda Paramhansa Yogananda is best known for his Autobiography of a Yogi, a book that he said the Lord Himself commissioned him to write, in response to a silent call among many souls for a “practical religion” that would enable them to know the Divinity that dwells in their own hearts and souls. Those who met Yogananda were overwhelmed by the magnetic power of his love. Saints and sages recognized him as one of their own. Sri Ananda Moyi Ma, Ramana Maharshi, Sri Rama Yogi, and Mahatma Gandhi—these and many other great souls perceived in him an avatar, God incarnated with the power to redeem not only a few close disciples but a vast flock who would be transformed by his divine ray. “As a bright light shining in the midst of darkness, so was Yogananda’s presence in this world. Such a great soul comes on earth only rarely, when there is a real need among men.” – The Shankaracharya of Kanchipuram, spiritual leader of millions of Hindus. Though divinely tasked with bringing a practical teaching, Yogananda preferred to express his wisdom not in dry intellectual terms but as pure, expansive feeling. To drink his poetry is to be drawn into the web of his boundless, childlike love. Nor was his vision limited to this earthly plane – in one moment his Songs of the Soul invite us to join him as he plays among the stars with his Cosmic Beloved. Then they call us to discover that portion of our own hearts that is eternally one with the Nearest and Dearest. Like his famous Whispers From Eternity, this volume is a bubbling, singing wellspring of spiritual healing that we can bring with us everywhere. (Also included is the addition of five poems not included in the original, 1923 edition.)Contents for Songs of the Soul Part I They Are Thine Consecration Soul Is Marching On Thou In Me Thy Call One That’s Everywhere Whispers Too Near In Me Evasion Thy Cruel Silence One Friend I Am Here Where I Am Flower Offering The Tattered Dress A Milk-White Sail Thy Secret Throne Methought I Heard a Voice For Thee and Thine The Harvest The Splinters of Thy Love PART II Eternity Wake, Wake My Sleeping Hunger, Wake!

The Hidden Story of the Mahabharata reveals a treasure trove of practical spiritual wisdom that most people miss. Woven subtly into this compelling tale of dharma, righteous action, is a profound inner teaching, and Paramhansa Yogananda’s insights bring it to life, pointing the way to true happiness and inner freedom. Nayaswami Gyandev’s riveting storytelling takes you deep into this beloved saga, from its celestial origin to its surprising ending. Occasional explanations from Yogananda never break the story’s magical spell. Instead, they make it highly personal by addressing such down-to-earth topics as: The battle within each spiritual seeker What our ultimate victory really depends on How to know whether an action will lead to true happiness Essential qualities to develop for growth How to avoid the countless traps of desire and attachment Navigating the subtleties of right and wrong action The crucial role of will power and how to increase it Countering the ego’s clever ways of holding us back Why and how we must overcome even good habits How personal effort fits with divine grace The Hidden Story of the Mahabharata has everything you love about this timeless scripture—and more.The Hidden Story of the Mahabharata Table of Contents Preface 5 Introduction 7 Divine Prologue 9 The Loves of His Life 11 Generations 15 Seeds of Destiny 22 Dawn of Conflict 27 The Way of a Disciple 33 Kshatriya Prowess 41 Escape from Fire 49 Turning Point 55 Better Times 63 The Game of Dice 71 Into Exile 80 Higher Realms 87 Plans and Counterplans 93 The Twelfth Year 100 Hiding in Plain Sight 108 One Too Many 115 Lengthening Shadows 123 Final Efforts for Peace 131 The Bhagavad Gita 138 Bhishma’s Glory 146 Solitary Heroes 154 The One Lie 161 The Long-Awaited Duel 169 A Vow Fulfilled 177 Terror at Midnight 185 Reunions 191 The Grandfather’s Wisdom 197 Farewells 205 The Descent of Consciousness 214 Excerpts from the Unabridged Mahabharata 219 Humor in the Mahabharata 223 Glossary of Characters 227
