Awake Minute 24: Wait, was that my Guru?


Listen Later

This minute depicts the monumental moment from the life of Paramahansa Yogananda: the meeting with his Guru Sri Yukteswar. We take the time to really set the scene to ensure maximum impact: discuss his difficult time in the ashram with Swami Dayananda, the receipt and disappearance of mysterious astral Amulet. The artistic cinematography of that moment is discussed, and the reasons for the intriguing omission of certain elements from the Autobiography vs the film.
Have you ever had a sign, a sign that tells you the way you should go at certain pivotal moments of your life? We pondered this Alchemist-esque metaphysical conundrum.
