Autobiography Chapter 14, Part 2: Paramahansa Yogananda describes Samadhi

This episode covers the next part of chapter 14: “Poor boy, mountains cannot give you what you want...” to “...Aum, the vibration of the Cosmic Motor.”  Summary:  Sri Yukteswar grants Paramahansa Yogananda the pinnacle of human experience: Samadhi. But is it Savikalpa or Nirvikalpa? Has he experienced glimpses of this before? Guruji splits the experience in subtle but distinct steps, which are explained in more detail in other writings, so we take readings from God Talks with Arjuna (Bhagavad Gita) and the Second Coming of Christ to supplement this episode. This is one of the most significant sections of the book.  0:00 Summary of previous episode and chapter; 1:52 Instant gratification; 12:05 Reconnecting...; 24:15 Expansion; 39:53 The source; 1:05:30 Looking head to the next episode.  Links discussed in this episode:  https://youtu.be/IGdWdIE5aDk?si=PU45Ux1Wh4z4KMfp  Homework for next episode— Read, absorb and make notes on the next part of chapter 14 from: “Suddenly the breath returned to my lungs...” to “...endeavoring to convey a glimpse of its glory.”  #autobiographyofayogi  #autobiographylinebyline  #paramahansayogananda Autobiography of a Yogi  awake.minute Self-Realization Fellowship Yogoda Satsanga Society of India #SRF #YSS
