Autobiography Chapter 32, Part 3: Yogananda’s beloved India

from Yogananda Podcast · host Chris, Lauren, Mike & Priyank

This episode covers the next part of chapter 32 from: ““Yogananda,” he said with unusual gravity...” to “... vital to man’s happiness and to a nation’s longevity.” Summary: Swami Sri Yukteswar's profound prophecy and teachings about the Dwapara Yuga (atomic age) and the need for global unity make up the core of this episode. We explore the significance of Lahiri Mahasaya’s prediction that an account of his glorious life would be written 50 years after his passing, which came true with the 1945 publication of Yogananda's Autobiography of a Yogi - autobiography. We also examined the concept of a "League of Human Hearts" as an alternative to the League of Nations or United Nations, emphasising that true peace requires recognising humanity's common divine heritage rather than just intellectual understanding. The discussion also covered India's enduring civilisation through centuries of foreign rule, with references to the biblical story of Sodom and Gomorrah to illustrate how the presence of righteous souls can protect a nation from destruction. 0:00 Prior Episode; 2:23 The Prophesy; 14:00 The Atomic Age and Cosmic Law; 28:45 The League of Human Hearts; 33:30 India’s answer to imperturbable and enduring existence; Homework for next episode— Read, absorb and make notes on the last part of chapter 32 from: “Very scanty information about the life of Lahiri Mahasaya and his universal doctrine…”  to the end of the chapter. #autobiographyofayogi  #autobiographylinebyline  #paramahansayogananda Autobiography of a Yogi awake.minute Self-Realization Fellowship Yogoda Satsanga Society of India #SRF #YSS
