In this series, Keshava will share with us his own experiences with Swami Kriyananda, as well as draw on The New Path, Swamiji’s description of the years he spent with his guru, Paramhansa Yogananda. This podcast is filled with stories and lessons that all disciples of Yogananda would treasure.



Affirmations are powerful tools for changing habits and transforming yourself. They are positive, dynamic words that help you tune into the truth of your own higher nature. By using affirmations you are training your mind to move toward that higher reality, to stay uplifted and see the opportunities.



The purpose of chanting is to quiet the mind and prepare it for meditation. Chanting has the power to bring all who practice it with deep attention a feeling of divine response. Yogananda said devotional chanting is the highest form of art because it leads to attunement with the Cosmic Vibration.
