Omschrijving

The Seeds of Light Series, Volume OneThe first edition of our new "Seeds of Light" series, which consists of inspiring articles written by the great spiritual Master, Paramhansa Yogananda.

In 1920, he left India, traveling to a foreign culture, America, to spread the ancient wisdom of Self-realization. Nobody at that time knew anything about yogic science, and he had to start from zero, which was undoubtedly a daunting task.

However, Yogananda swept the West with his highly successful lecture tours ("campaigns," as he called them). The yogic message spread everywhere. That is why he is often called "the father of yoga in the West" today.

After five years, in 1925, he started publishing his magazine, East-West, later Inner Culture. As one reads on its cover, it was dedicated to "Spiritual realization; development of body, mind, and soul; practical metaphysics; and Hindu psychology."

In these magazines, Yogananda offered his enlightened message in short and long articles on all sorts of topics. The book you are reading contains a selection of these articles: those in which the Master focused on happiness, which is both a creative art and a concrete science, and it can be felt despite all our life difficulties. The art, for example, is this: "Happiness comes, not by helplessly wishing for it, but by dreaming, thinking, and living it in all the moods and actions of life."

You are reading unedited, authentic, pure material from these precious early magazines. It is as if the young Yogananda were talking directly to you, without any filter.

Enjoy the gift of Yogananda's luminous teachings, which are truly "Seeds of Light."
