Paramahansa Yogananda
“Roam in the world as a lion of self-control; see that the frogs of weakness don’t kick you around.”
Paramahansa Yogananda

Paramahansa Yogananda
“Man's conscious state is an awareness of body and breath. His subconscious state, active in sleep, is associated with his mental, and temporary, separation from body and breath. His superconscious state is a freedom from the delusion that "existence" depends on body and breath. God lives without breath; the soul made in his image becomes conscious of itself, for the first time, only during the breathless state.”
Paramahansa Yogananda, Autobiography of a Yogi

Paramahansa Yogananda
“Millions of people never analyze themselves. Mentally they are mechanical products of the factory of their environment, preoccupied with breakfast, lunch, and dinner, working and sleeping, and going here and there to be entertained. They don’t know what or why they are seeking, nor why they never realize complete happiness and lasting satisfaction. By evading self-analysis, people go on being robots, conditioned by their environment. True self-analysis is the greatest art of progress.”
Paramahansa Yogananda

“Read a little. Meditate more. Think of God all the time.”
Paramahansa Yogananda

Paramahansa Yogananda
“If religion means primarily God-consciousness, or the realization of God both within and without, and secondarily a body of beliefs, tenets and dogmas, then, strictly speaking, there is but one religion in the world, for there is but one God.”
Paramahansa Yogananda, Science of Religion
