Swami Kriyananda was often present when Yogananda spoke privately with other close disciples, when he received visitors and answered their questions, and when he was dictating and discussing his writings. His book, Conversations with Yogananda, shares many of these gems from Yogananda, allowing us, too, to receive his wisdom, delight in his humor, and be transformed by his love. Ananda's teachings are based on those of Paramhansa Yogananda as expressed by his disciple, Swami Kriyananda, the founder of Ananda.
