Your Eternal Bliss with Swami Kriyananda

MP3 Download

For more than sixty years Swami Kriyananda has been a disciple of the revered Paramhansa Yogananda. As a young man the Swami came to understand that logic and intellect would never lead to happiness, and from his first encounter with Yogananda knew he had found his true spiritual path. Now he shares personal stories of the great teacher's wisdom, humility, and humor, and offers insights each of us can use to find the love and bliss that are available to us all. He explains, "Everybody wants two things in this universe: one, to escape pain, and the other to find happiness. The happiness that they're seeking is a little glimpse of the bliss of their own being. The goal of life is to know bliss. The bliss, when you find it, is so intense that nothing else matters to you. And you know that you'll have that bliss for all eternity and never get tired of it." This fascinating conversation is an opportunity to experience the presence of a man who emanates the energy of bliss and love - just listening will help you recognize your own.
