Self-Realization Fellowship sannyasini Draupadi Mai shares wisdom from the teachings of Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda in her talk on: “Kriya Yoga: Quickening Our Human Evolution.” She begins with a quote by Yoganandaji — “The purpose and goal of Yoga is to regain the lost paradise of soul consciousness by which man knows that he is, and ever has been, one with Spirit.” Draupadi Mai explains that by the specific practice of the sacred science of Kriya Yoga, we can regain that lost paradise of soul consciousness, and by reclaiming our forgotten divinity we can also free ourselves from the fear and suffering that this world of inconstancies brings—and find safety in the ever-new joy of changeless Spirit. “Paramahansa Yoganandaji says that yoga is not only a means for God-communion, but self-transformation; we must consciously attempt to purify unwanted behaviours to prepare us for higher states of realization,” Mai said, explaining how we can anchor our consciousness in our true nature, so we can express our soul qualities of peace, harmony, intuitive insight. Referring to the definition of yoga by the ancient Indian sage Patanjali: “Chitta Vritti Nirodha,” or the cessation of the whirlpool of thoughts and emotions that ceaselessly arise within us, Mai explained: “By Kriya Yoga meditation, the mind and emotions become calm and undisturbed….Then we can also view situations and people with clarity; respond respectfully and clearly to the challenges we face or the activities we engage in; and in all situations to live a dharmic life making wise choices that align with right living.” This discourse was live-streamed on the closing day of a three-day spiritual programme at YSS Ranchi ashram on Sunday, November 13, 2022. *** To attend an upcoming discourse by SRF sannyasini Brahmani Mai, please visit https://yssi.org/BrahmaniMai-Talk *** Learn more about the “Yogoda Satsanga Lessons,” Paramahansa Yoganandaji’s home-study course on the science of meditation and art of balanced spiritual living: https://yssi.org/lessons To read Paramahansa Yogananda’s “Autobiography of a Yogi”: https://yssi.org/AoY To learn more about how to participate in YSS online group meditations and see the full calendar of events for the YSS Online Dhyana Kendra: https://yssi.org/OnlineMeditation-Cal... *** For the latest content from YSS: https://yssi.org/Eventshttps://yssi.org/YouTubehttps://yssi.org/Books *** #YogodaSatsangaSociety#HowToLiveWisdom#ParamahansaYogananda#YSS#SelfRealizationFellowship#yogameditation #kriyayoga #evolution
