This course, designed specially for those who have taken kriya yoga initiation, will go in-depth into Swami Kriyanandaji’s book of Yoganandaji’s teachings, The Essence of Self-Realisation.
“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
