August 16, 2023 Perseverance: Secret of Spiritual Success | How-to-Live Inspirational Series | Brother Nakulananda
Jun 26, 2020 #ParamahansaYogananda #Yogananda #perseverance
SRF minister Brother Nakulananda explains how the secret for success on the spiritual path lies in developing a “never give up” attitude: “We will be delving into the subject of perseverance and having that indomitable will and determination to accomplish whatever we set out to do in our lives; and in particular to be determined to seek God, to love God, until we have that final union with God”
He points out that the highest goal in life is to experience the Divine within ourselves, and that to do so requires persevering until we reach that sacred goal. Citing numerous examples of spiritually successful individuals, most notably Paramahansa Yogananda, he explains how we can develop #perseverance and our desire for realization—despite all the tests of life—through practical spiritual methods such as:
• Understanding the purpose of life
• Using affirmations as a means to know the divinity and strength of your true nature as a soul
• Faithfully practicing scientific yoga meditation techniques, as those found in the SRF teachings
“The scientific way of entering the superconscious state is by the methods of life-force control I am giving to you,” Brother Nakulananda quotes #Yogananda as saying about the pranayama (life-force control) techniques taught in the SRF Lessons. “If you faithfully practice these techniques and meditate deeply, I prophesy you will never give it up.”
In this talk, which was recorded at the SRF Encinitas Temple in May 2020, Brother Nakulananda quotes from Yogananda’s commentaries on the Bhagavad Gita (“God Talks With Arjuna”) and the New Testament (“The Second Coming of Christ”) to show their underlying unity and emphasis on actual experience of God. And in drawing examples from the lives of saints, Brother Nakulananda tells us that we too can follow in their footsteps and achieve our own Self-realization.

August 15, 2023 Kriya Yoga: Science of Spiritual Living for the Modern Age | How-to-Live Inspirational Service | SRF/YSS President Brother Chidananda
Jun 19, 2020 #SRFConvocation #Yogananda #YogaMeditationSRF/YSS President Brother Chidananda shares how the comprehensive science of Kriya Yoga—which includes the specific technique of Kriya Yoga as well as the other meditation techniques taught by Paramahansa Yogananda—works in a systemic way to “reverse the searchlights of the senses” away from matter so that we can discover the bliss of the Divine within ourselves.
As Brother Chidananda states in his talk, “An understanding of the basic principles of this comprehensive science helps a great deal in the practice of not just the Kriya technique proper, but also the Energization Exercises, the Hong-Sau Technique of Concentration, and the Aum Technique of Meditation, all of which are part of this interrelated science of yoga meditation.”
#Yogananda explains that “the little searchlights of our mind’s attention and of the five senses ordinarily are focused on imperfect matter….Man’s attachment to matter keeps the soul confined to the bodily prison and prevents it from finding freedom with God in the realm of eternal bliss. The ego attempts to satisfy through material channels the soul’s constant, insatiable longing for God.”
This talk was recorded at the 2016 SRF World Convocation in Los Angeles, a year before Brother Chidananda became the fifth president of Self-Realization Fellowship, the organization establised by Paramahansa Yogananda in 1920 to disseminate his teachings on #KriyaYogaMeditation worldwide.
Brother Chidananda points out that progress on the spiritual path begins from the very moment we start to feel what Paramahansa Yogananda described as “the soul’s constant, insatiable longing for God.” Brother Chidananda illustrates the incredible power of the science of Kriya Yoga for mastering the ego-principle, which allows us to realize the innate Joy of the soul—even in this modern age.

August 14, 2023 True Devotion: Living in God’s Presence Moment to Moment | How-to-Live Inspirational | Service Brother Vishwananda
Jun 12, 2020 #SRFConvocation #ParamahansaYogananda #LivingInTheMoment SRF minister Brother Vishwananda discusses how we can more quickly and effectively achieve the ultimate goal of human life—Self-realization, oneness with the bliss of God—by understanding what devotion truly is and practicing it daily as we learn to “live in the moment.” He explains:
“Very few people understand what the purpose of life is. But our guru, Paramahansa Yogananda, has told us: The purpose of life is to find God. If we can cling to this one thought alone, how our lives will change! That thought gives perspective and power of direction to every aspect of our lives. We now have a measure for our every thought, feeling, and action: is this taking me closer to God, or is it taking me away from God? This reflects the real meaning of yoga: It is not just practice of techniques that we perform a few times per day and then go about our lives. It is a way of life that impacts us on all levels—physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.”
Recorded at the 2012 SRF World Convocation, Brother Vishwananda states how wonderful it is to be at the #SRFConvocation—a weeklong immersion in the #KriyaYoga teachings of Yogananda—with SRF students from all over the world, gathering to set aside “all thoughts and cares of the world, the challenges that we all may be facing in our day-to-day lives, and just focus on loving God.”
Brother Vishwananda reminds the audience of words spoken by SRF’s fourth president, Sri Mrinalini Mata, earlier in the Convocation week, in which she pointed out that Convocation experience, though soon to come to and end, could serve as a beginning of a lasting and deeper awareness of and true devotion to the Divine. (This talk by Mrinalini Mata was published as “Filling the Vessel of Your Life With God’s Love” in the Winter 2012 and Spring 2013 issues of Self-Realization magazine.)
To learn about this year’s 2020 Convocation, which is open to the public free of charge and will take place entirely online, please visit: https://yogananda.org/srf-world-convo...
Topics discussed in #TrueDevotion include:
• The purpose of life
• The importance of living in the moment
• Making you relationship with God and Guru personal
• Yama-niyama—the first two steps in Patanjali’s Eightfold Path of Yoga, extolled in his Yoga Sutras, as the foundation of the spiritual practice of meditation
In his “how-to-live” teachings, Paramahansa Yogananda has given to people of all cultures, races, and creeds the means to free themselves from physical, mental, and spiritual inharmonies — to create for themselves a life of enduring happiness and all-round success.

August 13, 2023 Finding a Unity Deeper Than Race, Color, or Creed | SRF/YSS President Brother Chidananda
Jun 5, 2020 Addressing the current situation in America and around the world of widespread protests against racial injustice and divisiveness, Brother Chidananda, president of Self-Realization Fellowship/Yogoda Satsanga Society of India, explains: “Racial prejudice and injustice are a disease in human hearts and minds—in the hearts and minds of any of us who won’t make a home for God within us.” He continues, “In most countries around the world we see that they are infected also, to one degree or another, with discrimination, with hatred, based on either race, color, and certainly in many places, religion.”
Brother Chidananda extols the efforts all those who are using their talents and capabilities to help others improve their lives, as well as to uplift our society and world. He especially encourages everyone following meditation-based spiritual teachings to be true peacemakers—that by producing peace first within ourselves through meditation, we can then radiate that peace to others through spiritual actions.
“My prayer is twofold,” Brother Chidananda says: “I pray that all of us listen with respect and urgency to the words of our era’s good-hearted reformers—the social and political uniters of all races and religions. And from that profoundly spiritual act of listening to each other, then let us seek to discern the best way to translate noble ideals from words into tangible actions that promote healing.
“But even more than that, I pray that our most heartfelt words in this divisive time reach out to the Divine: to the very Source and Fountainhead of all that is good, true, and ennobling in our nature.”
Brother Chidananda also leads a meditation preceded by a prayer calling on the Divine to teach us “how to listen, feel, and take wisdom-guided action to alleviate…suffering and race-based injustice.”
In speaking of Paramahansa Yogananda’s great love for his adopted country America, Brother Chidananda tells of the Guru’s insight into not only the good karma that American has established for itself but also the karmic ties of injustice to African Americans and Native Americans that must be broken in order to move forward.
Brother Chidananda closes his message with powerful words from Paramahansaji’s book Where There Is Light.

August 12, 2023 Finding Spiritual Balance in Your Life | How-to-Live Inspirational Service | Sister Priya
May 29, 2020 #Yogananda #YogaMeditation #BhagavadGitaSRF minister Sister Priya shares her insights into how to find spiritual balance in our lives with meditation as the foundation. In this talk, recorded at the 2000 SRF World Convocation in Los Angeles, she also discusses how we can allow the problems of life to drive us closer to God; the importance of forgiveness in our finding balance; and the power or prayer to bring about change in ourselves, our lives, and the world.
The SRF/YSS path of Kriya Yoga meditation—taught by Paramahansa Yogananda in the SRF/YSS Lessons—is a comprehensive system for balanced spiritual living. As Sister Priya points out, “Regular meditation will always be primary among the SRF requirements for a balanced and spiritual life. Our guru, Paramahansa Yogananda, never spoke of the essentials without stressing meditation.”
She tells us that it is regular meditation, especially Kriya meditation, by which, in Yogananda’s words, “Men and women, one by one, escape from creation’s prison of duality as they awaken to consciousness of their inseverable divine unity with the Creator.”
But in addition to meditation, the spiritual aspirant looking for true happiness must also consider how to make one’s whole of life balanced. And this is where Sister Priya stresses the comprehensive and universal nature of the spiritual discipline, or sadhana, to be found in the “how-to-live” SRF/YSS teachings: “[Paramahansa Yogananda’s] sadhana is suitable both for householder and renunciant seeking freedom in God, because it includes this beautiful balance of regular meditation, of service to God in others, plus rest, recreation, and exercise. Everything in moderation.”
At the beginning of this talk, Sister Priya also speaks of the hope she feels after having just visited a SRF summer youth program: “If children like this…represent the future of SRF and the future of the world, I think we have less to worry about than we thought. They radiated such purity and yet such depth, gentle spiritual strength.”

August 11, 2023 The Liberating Power of Affirmation | How-to-Live Inspirational Service | Brother Prafullananda
May 22, 2020 #Yogananda #KriyaYoga #YogaMeditationSRF minister Brother Prafullananda explores how seekers after highest consciousness can use the power of affirmation, as an adjunct to Kriya Yoga meditation, to achieve their highest material and spiritual goals.
He explains that by incorporating the science of affirmation into our daily spiritual practice — as explained in Paramahansa Yogananda’s “how-to-live” teachings — we can transform body and mind by using the potent force of the subconscious and even more powerful superconscious mind. It is the superconscious mind that, in Yogananda’s words, “hides behind the restlessness of conscious life and the fanciful dream state and memories of subconscious life, and knows everything, not by reason or sense perception, but by God-given intuition, the direct all-knowing power of the soul.”
As Brother Prafullananda points out, affirmations are vocalized statements of truth, repeated over and over to ourselves, until the meaning is incorporated at our highest level of spiritual consciousness. This talk shows how you can use this profound science to reach the ultimate Goal: understanding and fully embracing the Divine within yourself.
This discussion on the science of affirmation includes deep truths found in the following of Yogananda’s works: “Scientific Healing Affirmations,” “Autobiography of a Yogi,” “Metaphysical Meditations,” Whispers from Eternity,” “God Talks With Arjuna: The Bhagavad Gita,” and “The Second Coming of Christ: The Resurrection of the Christ Within You.”
As part of the meditation included in this talk, Brother Prafullananda leads everyone in a chant from Yogananda’s “Cosmic Chants,” which affirms our expansive nature as individual souls—“I Am the Sky”:
“I am the sky, Mother, I am the sky,
I am the vast blue ocean of sky.
I am a little drop of the sky—
Frozen sky.”

August 10, 2023 Taking Shelter in God | How-to-Live Inspirational Service | Brother Satyananda
May 16, 2020 #Yogananda #Stillness #RajaYogaSRF minister Brother Satyananda explores how to understand the idea of “Taking Shelter in God” in Paramahansa Yogananda’s Kriya Yoga teachings. When the trials of life suddenly encroach on us, do we seek inner peace in meditation: “are we putting first our fear, or are we putting first our faith?”
Brother Satyananda explains that seeking the protective shelter of the Divine is a choice we can all make, just as we would choose to seek shelter from a storm. If we take shelter in God with devotion, we can, in Paramahansaji’s words, “become established in supreme peace and find eternal freedom in Him.”
This inspirational service, which was recorded at the SRF Lake Shrine Temple in Pacific Palisades, California, begins with Brother Satyananda leading a period of meditation preceded by chanting. The chant, “At Thy Feet,” is from Paramahansa Yogananda’s book “Cosmic Chants”:
“Listen to my soul song,
Listen to my heart song!
In secret, in my soul,
I will gather blossoms for Thee.
Dipping them in devotion,
I will lay them at Thy feet.”
At the close of this opening meditation, he leads a group practice of chanting Aum, reminding everyone: “Out of formless Cosmic Spirit there flows a great song. It flows into creation. It sustains all of life. It flows through us. It flows around us. It is known as the Aum, the Amen, the Amin. Saints and sages of all great religions have declared it as the voice of God. We can feel God’s cosmic word as we chant Aum together over and over again.”
This inspirational service draws from Paramahansa Yogananda’s commentaries on the Bhagavad Gita, “God Talks With Arjuna,” and his commentaries on the teachings of Jesus in the New Testament, “Second Coming of Christ.”
In his “how-to-live” teachings, Paramahansa Yogananda has given to people of all cultures, races, and creeds the means to free themselves from physical, mental, and spiritual inharmonies — to create for themselves a life of enduring happiness and all-round success.

August 09, 2023 God’s Nature in the Mother | How-to-Live Inspirational Service | Sister Draupadi
May 8, 2020 #Yogananda #KriyaYoga #unconditionalloveIn the SRF inspirational service “God’s Nature in the Mother,” SRF nun Sister Draupadi discusses the Mother aspect of the Divine, and explains that by applying Paramahansa Yogananda’s teachings, we help our families live in a higher age of understanding and spiritual balance. She further affirms that as parents deepen their own relationship with God, they also guide the lives of children with ever-increasing love and acceptance.
At the beginning of this service given at the SRF International Headquarters in Los Angeles, Sister Draupadi reads from the “Second Coming of Christ” and “God Talks With Arjuna,” Paramahansa Yogananda’s commentaries on the New Testament and the Bhagavad Gita, respectively.
After describing the ennobling instruction given to children before they entered householder life in the Golden Age of ancient India, she points out that we are truly blessed in our present time to have the Kriya Yoga teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda — which we can apply in our lives in order to live in a higher age, right now. “All of us who have embraced Paramahansa Yogananda’s teachings are actually following the teachings of Vedic India,” Sister Draupadi affirms.
She conducts a period of divine communion and guided meditation, which includes a chant to God as Divine Mother, from Paramahansaji’s book of chants, “Cosmic Chants”:
“Engrossed is the bee of my mind
On the blue lotus feet of my Divine Mother.
Divine Mother, my Divine Mother!”

August 08, 2023 Facing Life’s Challenges With Courage and Faith | How-to-Live Inspirational Service | Brother Nakulananda
Apr 24, 2020 #Yogananda #YogaMeditation #FaithIn this online inspirational service conducted at the Self-Realization Fellowship Encinitas Temple, SRF minister Brother Nakulananda speaks about “Facing Life’s Challenges With Courage and Faith.”
After beginning the service with a guided meditation, Brother Nakulananda explains how we can face all of life’s challenges through applying Paramahansa Yogananda’s scientific Kriya Yoga teachings on meditation and balanced spiritual living and how-to-live principles:
“Our Guru [Paramahansa Yogananda] has given to us so much in his vast teachings—in his lectures, his writings, his recordings, his how-to-live principles, the techniques of meditation—showing us the supreme purpose for which we are here on earth, and how to achieve that goal of God-realization, which is our divine birthright, our divine heritage.”
He also cites the counsel of Sri Daya Mata—one of Yogananda’s earliest and closest disciples, and the third president of SRF/YSS—who explains that nothing in this world is stable: everything is changing except God, and that “lasting peace can only come from within, from attunement with God.”
Brother Nakulananda explains that by becoming anchored in God through meditation and right activity, “we are not only helping ourselves, but we are also helping our family and our friends and our loved ones just by our example of the calmness and the evenmindedness that we are exemplifying in our daily lives.”
He again quotes Daya Mata: “The more you fix your consciousness in the reality of His presence within you, the more you will learn, as stated by Master, ‘to stand unshaken midst the crash of breaking worlds.’ Established in the evenmindedness of soul consciousness and the constancy of God’s presence, you will not only be able to keep your own head high in times of crisis or tragedy, but also to give strength and comfort to others and to the world through the spiritual consciousness emanating from your uplifting thoughts, actions, and prayers.”
In concluding his talk, Brother Nakulananda quotes solacing insight that Paramahansa Yogananda gives in his Autobiography of a Yogi concerning the promise that the SRF teachings on Kriya Yoga hold for not only this moment but the unfolding future:
“The blessed role of Kriya Yoga in East and West has hardly more than just begun. May all men come to know that there exists a definite, scientific technique of Self-realization for the overcoming of all human misery!”
In his “how-to-live” teachings, Paramahansa Yogananda has given to people of all cultures, races, and creeds the means to free themselves from physical, mental, and spiritual inharmonies — to create for themselves a life of enduring happiness and all-round success.
