Man's Eternal Quest: Collected Talks And Essays On Realizing God In Daily Life: 1

by Paramahansa Yogananda

Man's eternal quest is a book about god: about god's place in man's life, in his hopes, will, aspirations, accomplishments. Life, man, achievement all are but manifestations of the one omnipresent creator, as inseparably dependent on him as the wave is dependent on the ocean. Paramahansa yogananda explains why and how man was created by god and how he is immutably a part of god and what this means to each one personally. Realization of the oneness of man and his creator is the whole essence of yoga. An understanding of man's inescapable need for god, in every aspect of living, removes the other worldliness from religion and makes knowing god the basis of a scientific and practical approach to life.table of contents:healing by god's unlimited powerthe university of yogagod as light & joyeven-mindedness in a world of changereincarnation: the soul's journey to perfection

Dedicar tiempo a la lectura de las enseñanzas recopiladas en las obras de Paramahansa Yogananda es, sin lugar a duda, la mejor y más rentable inversión en pro de nuestro crecimiento interior y desarrollo espiritual. Pero el tiempo de lectura no tendrá valor alguno si no pasamos a la acción, a la práctica. Me quedo con muchas cosas pero especialmente con estas sabias palabras de Yoganada:

"No es aquello que lees lo que te aportará liberación, sino la aplicación que das a lo que lees. En efecto, la salvación se alcanza con la práctica, no con la teoría; con la realización, no con la creencia ciega".

Opened my mind to God beyond the common concept

Yogananda was a God-Realized yogi that came to America to bridge the gap between the Wester doctrine of Christianity and Eastern Hinduism. He approaches the idea of God in a practical, scientific, yet metaphysical way. Must read for anyone feeling lost spiritually.
