Awake Minute 26: The Brahmachari Life


Listen Later

Life in Sri Yukteswar's hermitage for Mukunda (Paramahansa Yogananda) was hard work! In this episode we discuss what it would have been like to live the brahmacharya life of an aspiring yogi, striving to know God. Even though Sri Yukteswar had a disciplinarian style of teaching, there were plenty of fascinating stories over the ten-year period Mukunda spent in the hermitage, till the time he joined the ancient swami order.
