“In superconsciousness you will behold everything clearly at last as it truly is. The jivan mukta, through visions, may work out the karma of an entire lifetime in one meditation. If he reincarnates, he may even do so simultaneously in several bodies, in order the more quickly to work out his past karma.”
—Paramhansa Yogananda, The Essence of Self Realisation

“When you give all personal emotions to Divine Mother and your love becomes unconditional, then Divine Mother will come to you; and if you once feel in your heart that Infinite love—which is the source of the love of the father and the mother, the love of the mother for the child, and the love of the lover for the beloved—then you will know that you are immersed in the love of God. When you want shelter, or forgiveness, think of God as the Divine Mother.”
—Paramhansa Yogananda
