Editions
Choose a specific edition for more informationDescription
'People need, now more than ever, to understand the relevance of Christ's teachings to their daily lives and to present-day understanding of the universe. Indeed, spiritual truths ought to be more far-reachingly relevant to our lives than materialistic science can ever hope to be.'
'My purpose in writing this book is to present the teachings of Jesus Christ as they were proclaimed by one of the great saints and spiritual masters of our own times, Paramhansa Yogananda.'—Swami Kriyananda, Revelations of Christ
Yogananda’s main mission was to demonstrate the underlying unity between the original teaching of Christ and those of Sri Krishna. His commentaries, written from 1925 until 1951, together with Swami Kriyananda’s book, Revelations of Christ, are the basis of this program.
In this program Jesus and his teachings come alive: practical, relatable, uplifting, guidelines for actually knowing and communing with God. Taught by Ananda’s senior teachers, these topics will be discussed:
- The true purpose of religion: inner communion
- Christ Consciousness: Son of God, Son of Man
- Unceasing prayer: How to pray and get answers
- How to worship God in Spirit and in Truth
- Does Satan exist?
- The spinal highway: karma, chakras and reincarnation in the Bible
- The serpent power:
- The need for a personal Savior
- The promise of immortality
- Mystical meaning of the parables

When we learn to serve with the right attitude, this is a spiritual practice and is called Karma Yoga. The daily practice of Karma Yoga is a joyful and practical spiritual discipline that will benefit every aspect of your life.

"The Bhagavad Gita is a spiritual map that can guide us along the spiritual path, so that we can learn to act in the world without emotional involvement".
The Bhagavad Gita, literally “Song of God”, is a poem in verse, written about 4000 years ago, and is the most beloved of the scriptures that India has transmitted to us. It tells us about a battlefield and, this battle, in the splendid commentary that Paramhansa Yogananda offers of this song, is nothing but an allegory of the internal conflict between the materialistic instincts of man and his intense desire to achieve union with the Divine.
This course will accompany us towards the profound understanding of the teachings contained in this poem. Come happens to Prince Arjuna, even in our life crises and doubts, anxieties and worries sabotage our actions, our Thoughts, our heart but, between its pages, you can find the answers to all the questions and the infinite whys of existence.
