Story Book 702: 🧡 PARAMAHANSA YOGANANDA (1893–1952)

The monk who introduced millions of people to meditation, Kriya Yoga, and the science of self-realization.

Born on 5 January 1893 in Gorakhpur, India, as Mukunda Lal Ghosh, Yogananda showed a deep spiritual longing from childhood.

While most children dreamed about worldly success, Mukunda searched for something greater:

✨ The direct experience of God.

At the age of 17, he met his guru, Sri Yukteswar Giri, a meeting that transformed his life forever.

Under his guru’s guidance, he mastered meditation, discipline, and the ancient science of Kriya Yoga.

🌍 In 1920, he traveled to America.

At a time when very few people in the West understood yoga or meditation, Yogananda shared India’s spiritual wisdom in a simple, practical, and scientific way.

📖 His famous book,
“Autobiography of a Yogi,”
has inspired millions of readers worldwide and remains one of the most influential spiritual books ever written.

💡 What did he teach?

• Meditation is the key to inner peace.
• God can be experienced directly.
• All religions lead to the same Truth.
• Self-discipline creates freedom.
• Love, service, and spiritual growth bring lasting happiness.

His teachings continue through:
✅ Self-Realization Fellowship (SRF)
✅ Yogoda Satsanga Society (YSS)
✅ Kriya Yoga practitioners worldwide

✨ Lesson for Today:

In a world full of stress, distraction, and noise, Yogananda reminds us:

“Change yourself, and you change the world.”

The greatest journey is not outward.

It is inward.

🙏 Peace begins within.
