How Paramhansa Yogananda Changed the World
(by Swami Kriyananda, direct disciple)
Paramhansa Yogananda was a towering giant among saints—one of those few who come from age to age, having been sent by God with the divine mission of guiding mankind out of the fogs of delusion into the clear light of divine understanding.

🔑 Meditation Tip from Yogananda

The effects of meditation are profound, even when practiced for just a short time each day. In the beginning, don’t force yourself to sit for long periods. Instead, strive for depth in your meditations.

The monkey mind takes time to tame, but consistency is key. It’s better to meditate for 5 minutes every day than 3 hours once a month. Focus on what you can commit to daily and gradually increase the length of your meditation over time.

A daily meditation practice is the best investment you can give yourself. The fruits of resilience, peace of mind, inner joy, and deep connection with your soul may not be immediate, but they will gradually ripen with the watering of your daily efforts. 🌿✨
