This episode covers the last part of chapter 11 from: “Joy was within me as I boarded...” to the end of the chapter. 

Summary: 

A beautiful end to a lively chapter – and yet so much to unpack! The variegated ways in which three devotees look to Mukunda – Paramahansa Yogananda is very revealing: Jitendra’s changeable spiritual enthusiasm contrasted well with Pratap’s strong convictions and Ananta’s willingness to change the course of his life in an instant.
