Paramahansa Yogananda: Three Paths to Cosmic Consciousness | Nirvikalpa Samadhi

Samadhi is a joyous experience, a splendid light in which you behold the countless worlds floating in a vast bed of joy and bliss. Banish the spiritual ignorance that makes you think this mortal life is real. Have these beautiful experiences for yourself in eternal samadhi, in God. Auroras of light, skyfuls of eternal bliss will be opened to you.

All great teachers declare that within this body is the immortal soul, a spark of That which sustains all. He who knows his soul knows this truth:

“I am beyond everything finite; I now see that the Spirit, alone in space with Its ever new joy, has expressed Itself as the vast body of nature. I am the stars, I am the waves, I am the Life of all; I am the laughter within all hearts, I am the smile on the faces of flowers and in each soul. I am the Wisdom and Power that sustain all creation.”

THE SRF LESSONS

The SRF Lessons teach you how to live a balanced and successful life by awakening your connection to the Divine. The SRF Lessons are a transmission of sacred knowledge that will uplift and transform all aspects of your life: a progressive, home-study program teaching meditation techniques and the essence of spirituality handed down through a renowned lineage of yoga masters — Mahavatar Babaji, Lahiri Mahasaya, Swami Sri Yukteswar, and Paramahansa Yogananda — and available to you.

The Lessons were originated by Paramahansa Yogananda. At the core of his teachings is a powerful system of meditation techniques: the Kriya Yoga science of meditation. This ancient science of the soul—to which millions have been introduced by Autobiography of a Yogi and other books by him—provides powerful methods for awakening higher spiritual consciousness and the inner bliss of divine realization.

From the very first Lesson, you receive definite methods by which you can experience the benefits of meditation immediately.

While building a solid foundation for deep meditation, you will learn three powerful techniques taught by Paramahansa Yogananda as necessary first steps in the comprehensive spiritual science of Kriya Yoga: Energization Technique and Exercises, Hong-Sau Technique of Concentration and Aum Technique of Meditation.

Your being has two sides— one visible, the other invisible. With open eyes you behold objective creation, and yourself in it. With closed eyes you see nothing, a dark void; yet your consciousness, even when dissociated from form, is still keenly aware and operative. If in deep meditation you penetrate the darkness behind closed eyes, you behold the Light from which all creation emerges. By deeper samadhi, your experience transcends even the manifested Light and enters the All-Blissful Consciousness—beyond all form, yet infinitely more real, tangible, and joyous than any sensory or supersensory perception.

"God is not hiding from you. You're hiding from God"
That hit me hard.

[mdkaifraza]

came here after reading his book 'The Autobiography of a Yogi '😊

7:53 I saw this during a NDE. Blessings to all seeking truth. May God's love cover you.

Prayer to find sincere souls to be your companions. Many fall for trickery in spirituality but the most important thing is our connection to God, we are here to remember divine love. To devote our entire life to God, beyond forms and names, to come together in pure devotion. Humble souls on the path waking up for worship and connect with God, I salute your beautiful heart. May we attract many on this authentic and unconditional path. Thank you for putting this out there ❤

great wisdom here...absorb it...and some day you will KNOW it!

[seelenschimmer]

The slow reading / listening is key to let this sink in ... as with all spiritual texts. Thank you. May be even slower and “with the soul”, as Samaneri Jayasara reads – she’s wonderful.
