Awake Minute 16: Dr Lewis, the first western Kriyaban

Paramahansa Yogananda arrives for the Congress of Religious Liberals and delivers his landmark talk entitled “The Science of Religion”. He naturally attracted devotees (perhaps from previous lives) such as Dr and Mrs Lewis (pictured). We review other scenes and discussion topics including Sigmund Freud, the re-conceptualisation of divinity and the book of Revelations. A mixed bag, if ever there was one. 2:09 Sigmund Freud and the re-conceptualisation of God; 17:35 Universality of Gurujis teachings; 23:43 Congress of Religious Liberals; 27:50 Dr and Mrs Lewis and Sister Yogamata; 34:30 Yogananda lecturing, finding God in the spine; 41:33 Seven Churches, Chakras and the Gospel of Thomas; 52:15 Video of Guruji speaking on stage; of Revelations.
