Swami Kriyananda

The Road Ahead (eBook, ePUB)

Based on World Prophecies of the Famed Indian Mystic Paramhansa Yogananda

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The Road Ahead is an exploration of the Paramhansa Yogananda's predictions about the future of our planet. Yogananda's initial impact on Western culture was truly impressive. His lasting spiritual legacy has been even greater. His Autobiography of a Yogi, first published in 1946, helped launch a spiritual revolution in the West. Translated into more than fifty languages, it remains a best-selling spiritual classic to this day.

Originally published by Swami Kriyananda in 1973, the book discusses what Yogananda's predictions could mean in our lives and how we can best approach the challenges that face us. While Yogananda's predictions are sometimes dire, The Road Ahead ultimately looks forward with expansive solutions to whatever upheavals this world brings. This re-release has a new foreword written by Nayaswami Jyotish and Nayaswami Devi, the global leaders of Ananda Sangha Worldwide.

Autorenporträt

Swami Kriyananda

Swami Kriyananda is a man of wisdom and compassion in action, truly one of the leading lights in the spiritual world today. Lama Surya Das, Dzogchen Center, author of Awakening the Buddha Within

A prolific author, accomplished composer, playwright, and artist, and a world-renowned spiritual teacher, Swami Kriyananda (19262013) referred to himself simply as close disciple of the great God-realized master, Paramhansa Yogananda. He met his guru at the age of twenty-two, and served him during the last four years of the Master's life. He dedicated the rest of his life to sharing Yogananda's teachings throughout the world.

Kriyananda was born in Romania of American parents, and educated in Europe, England, and the United States. Philosophically and artistically inclined from youth, he soon came to question life's meaning and society's values. During a period of intense inward reflection, he discovered Yogananda's Autobiography of a Yogi, and immediately traveled three thousand miles from New York to California to meet the Master, who accepted him as a monastic disciple. Yogananda appointed him as the head of the monastery, authorized him to teach and give Kriya Initiation in his name, and entrusted him with the missions of writing, teaching, and creating what he called world brotherhood colonies.

Kriyananda founded the first such community, Ananda Village, in the Sierra Nevada foothills of Northern California in 1968. Ananda is recognized as one of the most successful intentional communities in the world today. It has served as a model for other such communities that he founded subsequently in the United States, Europe, and India.
