Paramahamsa Prajnanananda
Did you know that the Himalayas, the world’s tallest mountains, are also present within your own body? Did you know that the stars and all the galaxies are reflected in your inner sky? Did you ever realize that there are hundreds of rivers coursing through our nervous system and that the most powerful river of all lies untapped?

von Paramahamsa Prajnanananda
What are the obstacles that confront us? Where do they come from? How can we overcome them? To be victorious on the spiritual path, we must overcome the obstacles that prevent us from realizing our true potential. Most of us perceive that obstacles stem from difficult circumstances or people, but a yogi perceives things differently. A yogi knows that the source of every obstacle is rooted in our own thoughts and feelings. To achieve spiritual growth and win the sacred battle of life, we must make every effort to identify our inner obstacles and vanquish them. The Story of the Eight Obstacles is a spiritual handbook that speaks to the heart. This beautiful book by Paramahamsa Prajnananandaji helps us take an honest look at the eight inner obstacles, or nooses that bind us; it teaches us the practical skills we need to conquer them to be free. Although we all face different circumstances, Paramahamsaji’s penetrating insight reveals that the obstacles we confront are the same.

Rabinarayan Das
What does it mean to do sadhana? How and where must it be done? Who is it for? What are the essential qualities that every sadhaka must have? Many aspire to follow a spiritual path, but there are a select few who have the real desire to go much deeper in their practice. In this book, spiritual luminary Shri Rabinarayan Das Babaji reaches out to those who aspire to turn their total attention to the Divine as well as those who have already embarked on their journey but who perhaps are in need of a little direction. In this book, the author takes a step-by-step approach to explaining the sadhana path, and does so with the fiery and perfectionist passion that he was so lovingly known for. In doing so, he underlines the nature and the importance of the guru–disciple relationship and why determination, strength, loyalty, and total surrender are essential on the part of the sadhaka. Shri Rabinarayan Das Babaji (1930–2011) was one of the foremost disciples of Shri Shri Thakur Abhirama Paramahamsa Deva and the founder of Shri Abhiram Trust, Odisha.

Paramahamsa Prajnanananda
Paramahamsa Prajnanananda calls the Mahabharata the greatest spiritual book ever written. No other scripture captures the essence of Truth as completely and powerfully as this unparalleled masterwork. Within this work of infinite knowledge is found a rare and priceless jewel, the Bhagavad Gita. The Bhagavad Gita narrates a battle between cousins, the Pandavas and the Kauravas, which is the battle between good and evil, a battle that rages in the minds and hearts of all human beings. Join the incomparable master Paramahamsa Prajnanananda as he leads us on a sacred journey to the temple door, the Bhagavad Gita, the soul of the Mahabharata. Through the master’s insightful commentary, we can acquire an intimate and in-depth understanding of the characters in this timeless epic and what they mean for our lives. This knowledge can inspire us to be victorious in our holy battles to reclaim the divine kingdom within. Like the Mahabharata, this commentary is one of a kind; it is an amazing, microscopic examination of our tendencies and desires and of the fallacy of the mind.

Paramahamsa Prajnanananda
Over the past few decades, the word „karma“ quietly made its way into the mainstream vernacular of modern Western culture. Once considered an Eastern concept, the karmic law is now generally accepted by both religious and non-religious masses as a universal and systematic law that automatically delivers the consequences of good or bad actions. Although the concept of karma is no longer foreign in the West, its intricate workings remain elusive. Are there different kinds of karma? How do our actions create karma? How is karma carried to the next life? Can we be free from the bondage of karma? The fascinating subject of karma opens the door to an infinite number of unanswered questions. But take heart! In this rare and essential handbook, The Law of Karma, the Kriya Yoga master, Paramahamsa Prajnanananda, skillfully explains the often misunderstood inner workings of this dynamic law. He gives us the tools we need to break free from the karmic prison.

Relationships begin with knowledge, grow with understanding and ripen through love. A successful relationship brings about completeness in life and allows us to develop harmoniously physically, emotionally, intellectually and spiritually. While we live in a changing world we should multiply our relationships based on love and oneness, but retain awareness that nothing is permanent except the immortal self.

We see the puppets dance, but often forget that the string puller orchestrates the movements. It is the body’s dance we see, but the soul is at play within. Casual observers often ignore this truth and consider the body as the ultimate manifestation of reality. Such gross misunderstanding is the cause of all suffering. A spiritual seeker through the step-by-step teaching and gradual unveiling from a divine guide, realizes that an individual is not the body, but the soul free from all boundaries and one with the eternal Creator, God. This is the path towards real freedom from all suffering.

Paramahamsa Hariharananda
Since ancient times scriptural wisdom has been the polestar of humankind. The message of the scriptures is universal; not meant for one particular race or nation, or even subject to space and time. Scriptural verses are self-revealing and illuminating, each one like a multifaceted crystal, shimmering with beauty when held to the sun. However, just as a treasure is often hidden, so, too, is the inner meaning of these gems of Truth; thus, the scriptures are often misinterpreted and misunderstood by the general population. Those who know and understand these truths are the realized saints and sages. They are the sun that reveals the true beauty of the crystal. Within the pages of this book, ‚The Beauty of Scriptural Wisdom‘, we are given the opportunity to explore the profound inner revelations of the great yogi and spiritual master Paramahamsa Hariharananda and share his deep insight into the hidden truth within the scriptures.

You will want to read and reread this beautiful and inspiring booklet time and time again, especially during such times when you lack direction or need encouragement in your spiritual practice.

Swami Shriyukteshwar Giri is still one of the most respected and accomplished masters known today. It can easily be stated that few men have ever been blessed to play such a pivotal role in the spiritual evolution of humanity as he. His life’s message was to awaken human beings to the Truth that the primary goal in life is spirituality rather than chasing after fleeting pleasures. As a master and guru, he was renowned for his strict discipline and rigorous training, which molded the lives of many prominent disciples, most notably Paramahamsa Yogananda. His spiritual mission continued with yet another of his devoted disciples, Paramahamsa Hariharananda. Swami Shriyukteshwar Giri was the epitome of poise and dignity, and his exemplary life and inspiring teachings continue to serve as a polestar for seekers on the spiritual path.

In India, from time immemorial, the importance of a master in human life has been emphasized. A healthy student-master relationship results in gratitude towards the teacher and ultimately results in anchoring in the truth. The classic Sanskrit text “Shree Shree Guru Gita” deals with the contribution that a master makes to the spiritual development of the seeker. Of course, the duties of a student towards his teacher are also described. The helpful explanations of one of India’s most popular spiritual writings come from Paramahamsa Prajnanananda and Lahiri Mahasaya, the great Householder yogi.

The Gurutantra is an ancient text that has for the most part remained unknown throughout the ages, even in India. Millennia ago its lofty verses were memorized and chanted; later they were recorded in written form. The Gurutantra is a rare handbook for those on the spiritual path. It offers deep insight and practical guidance with regard to loving and serving the guru in order to achieve spiritual success. No doubt, especially in modern times, the guru’s role is clouded by misunderstanding and confusion; many people fall prey to adoring the guru’s human form rather than following his or her teachings. Paramahamsa Prajnananandaji, realizing the need for making this text available, carefully translated it from its original Sanskrit into English. Undoubtedly, his profound love and gratitude toward his own guru–preceptor, Paramahamsa Hariharanandaji, inspired this important work. The guru plays an indispensable role in the lives of students, but this text reminds us that we must first understand our role in this relationship if we want to be successful.

Shri Sanyal Mahashaya was one of those rare beings who lived as he believed. The story of this esteemed master of the great Kriya Yoga lineage is a story of hope, encouragement, and inspiration for all.

Within ourselves, we all cry out for the freedom that comes from realizing the truth of our divine nature. Countless paths lead to this truth, but whichever path is chosen, the necessary qualities to tread it remains the same. Path of Knowledge: Talks on Acharya Shankara’s Tattva Bodha provide a clear and concise outline of what is required to achieve freedom and immortality. It illuminates the eternal message of achieving moksha „” liberation in this life. Archarya Shankara’s original commentaries encapsulated the very essence of Vedantic thought and infused new life into a philosophy that had become misunderstood and stale. Vedanta is Truth, and Truth is beyond religion, culture, space, and time. Acharya Shankara’s teachings are for everyone, for any path, for any time. Paramahamsa Prajnanananda’s commentary is profound and thought-provoking as well as highly practical. We become keenly aware of Paramahamsaji’s love for Acharya Shankara as he gently takes us by the hand and guides us along the path of the venerable master’s thought, clearing obstacles along the way. This skillful step-by-step journey leads us to the coveted goal, the realization of the Self, our true identity.

„What is started by me has to be completed by him.“ These words were used by the omniscient guru Paramahamsa Hariharananda regarding his young disciple, long before he made him a monk, years before he was designated as his chosen spiritual successor.
Many years ago a young spiritual aspirant known as Triloki Dash began an apprenticeship with Paramahamsa Hariharananda, the eminent Kriya Yoga master. These two exceptional beings gave their utmost to each other; ultimately, they would both guide others along the path of realization. This book is filled with Paramahamsa Prajnanananda’s private memories of his life under the guidance of his beloved Gurudev. He shares with us the world of his early youth and training. We glimpse his journey as a seeker. We hear the stories about his life-changing transformation. We enjoy a rare, candid view into the life of a disciple who achieved spiritual realization by obediently following his teacher’s footsteps, and who was able to reach his true potential.
The best way to master a skill is to learn from one who has already mastered it. Paramahamsa Prajnananandaji was the exceptional apprentice who became a master and his master’s successor.

People chase after many things searching for lasting happiness and contentment. Fame, wealth, power, possessions — all these are fleeting; hence, once attained, they leave us unsatisfied and unfulfilled. Where does lasting happiness lie? Ages ago in ancient India a great king sat at the feet of Avadhuta, a naked sage, and asked that very question. He sensed that the incomparable sage had found the secret to attaining the happiness that he so desperately sought. “How did you achieve your knowledge? Who is your guru?” asked the eager king. When Avadhuta answered, the soul of the story began. Paramahamsa Prajnanananda lovingly narrates the simple yet thought-provoking tale of Avadhuta and his twenty-four gurus. This tale helps us discover that the secret to true happiness is linked to our perception of the world. When viewed through the eyes of innocence and wonder, the entire world can become a magical classroom, abounding with teachers at every turn.

Through the practice of the divine and immortal Kriya Yoga, he not only sanctified his life, but was able under the guidance of his master Mahavatar Babaji to spread the teaching and practice of Kriya Yoga throughout India, and through his disciples, throughout the world. Through Lahiri Mahasaya’s company and blessings, many worldly people were able to transform the aimless voyage of their lives into one of perfect communion with God. The history and influence of his sixty-seven years on this earth continue to inspire and rekindle divine impulses within spiritual seekers, even today.

With the passage of time, the real meaning of Tantra was misunderstood. From a highly evolved spiritual science Tantra was demeaned as a tool for magical or occult power or an enhancer of sensual enjoyment. Tantra is none of these. It is an ancient discipline that provides a vast learning, a deep understanding of life, and a methodology to attain Self-realization. In Tantric meditation, inner bliss can be obtained by arousing energy latent in humankind, and uniting it with Shiva. Tantra uplifts consciousness in order to embrace the cosmic spirit.

Paramahamsa Hariharananda cautioned his students to proceed carefully because “the spiritual path is very slippery.” The journey to God is fraught with pitfalls, traps, endless sensual enticements, and creations of the mind. We can only marvel at the remarkable men and women who have courageously attained the realized state. How were they able to avoid the hazards that lead to spiritual downfall? The masters who choose to share their experiences are spiritual inspirations; their teachings nourish students’ growth. A realized one, a guru, is a divine alchemist who guides the transformation of seekers from mortal human beings to the realization that they are immortal souls. Paramahamsa Hariharananda, the illustrious modern-day sage, was such a master. In the Company of My Master, Volume One, is the first in a series of diaries that contain the priceless teachings of Paramahamsa Hariharananda. These teachings are taken from the personal notes of his foremost disciple and successor, Paramahamsa Prajnanananda, who shares many of the teachings that helped him achieve the pinnacle of realization. We learn how to live spiritual lives, achieve Self-realization, and serve God’s creation. We learn about day-to-day practical spirituality. This book is a roadmap for traveling on the journey to the truth: we are God in human beings and human beings in God.

Humility is perhaps the least understood, but the most important, of all virtues. No good quality can be deemed a virtue unless it is grounded in humility. When seekers of Truth lack humility, they stand still on the path of spiritual growth. If we are not humble, our good qualities are nothing more than fodder for the false ego — the ego that prevents us from knowing who we really are. In this small but thought-provoking book, Humility: The Stepping Stone to Spirituality, Paramahamsa Prajnananandaji dispels misperceptions often associated with humility. We learn how and why humility creates invincible strength. We learn that it is not a weakness as many believe it to be. Through deep spiritual insight and his own experiences the master clearly outlines the steps that must be taken to cultivate humility. Anyone who practices what Paramahamsaji teaches will reap the supreme bounty that can only be harvested by one who is humble.

Paramahamsa Prajnanananda
No bond is more enduring, no love more everlasting, than the bond between the guru and the disciple. Under the guru’s omniscient guidance, a disciple travels swiftly and safely on the path of inner illumination. The „Guru Paduka Stotram“ is a poignant and heartfelt hymn by Swami Bharati Krishna Tirtha, the former Shankaracharya of Puri and the sannyasa guru of the renowned Kriya Yoga master Paramahamsa Hariharananda. Within the pages of this book, Paramahamsa Hariharanandaji’s worthy disciple and successor, Paramahamsa Prajnanananda, discusses this hymn of adoration dedicated to the guru. The words of this hymn are captivating and inspiring, as it beautifully describes the role of the guru““preceptor in the lives of spiritual seekers. Indeed, the role of the guru in the life of a disciple is unparalleled. The master becomes both mother and father to a disciple, caretaker of his or her soul, so it is said that one without a guru is an orphan. To a disciple, nothing is more sacred than the master, and nothing is more precious than to humbly sit at the master’s feet; indeed, even the sandals that grace the guru’s feet are deemed holy. This commentary eloquently describes how the devotional practice of guru paduka, worshipping the sandals of the guru, is a beautiful way to strengthen one’s love and cultivate humility, two keystones for spiritual growth.

Most of us will agree that life is as we make it. But do we consider how we make our lives? Do we spend our days criticizing and finding fault in others? If so, how does this tendency affect us? What far-reaching and enduring effect does it have on the lives of those we criticize? In the modern world, the internet and social media have become a favorite outlet for the faultfinding tendency. This has contributed to the destruction of love and fellow-feeling among families, cultures, and countries. The faultfinding tendency is a double-edged sword: Often camouflaged as “just telling the truth” or “frankness,” it is a weapon that often injures both the wielder and the victim. In this helpful and enlightening little booklet, dedicated to the Yogavatar of Love, Paramahamsa Yoganandaji, the great Kriya Yoga master Paramahamsa Prajnananandaji explains the negative effects of faultfinding and offers practical insight into overcoming this destructive tendency. He shows us why happiness will elude us until we eradicate it from our lives.

Driven by an unrelenting desire for nectar, the butterfly flies from one flower to the next. When it discovers the one that holds the sweet treasure, it gently alights, becoming completely still, as it blissfully enjoys the nectar. Similarly, our restless mind is like the fluttering butterfly, going here and there in a constant pursuit to find the sweetness of happiness and peace – but it is only when we become absorbed in meditation and prayer and the mind is still and tranquil that we will enjoy the divine nectar. Transform your mind through meditation and prayer and your life will be transformed. It will become peaceful, full of love, and complete. This divine life is always at our hand – if we really want it.

To live each moment in ecstatic bliss and love seems an impossible dream. But for those who fully immerse themselves in the practice of bhakti, love and devotion for God, this dream can become a reality. When God is your only desire and the true beloved in your heart, the yoke of life becomes lighter, and the phantom shackles of the world will fall away. The beauty of bhakti is its simplicity. It can be practiced by anyone, anywhere, regardless of culture or faith. The only requirement is a willingness to open your heart to the boundless and unconditional love of God; then, you will manifest love during every thought, word, and action. Ultimately, you will attain union with the Divine. This declaration is affirmed by the celestial Sage Narada in the immortal Bhakti Sutra of Narada. Paramahamsa Prajnanananda’s beautiful commentary on this timeless sutra, Eternal Love: The Bhakti Sutra of Narada Explained, provides us a priceless opportunity to become spiritual benefactors of the great master’s immense understanding of bhakti. This understanding can only be attained by one who has experienced union with the Divine through love. With insightful antidotes and practical wisdom, Paramahamsaji teaches us how to seamlessly integrate the spiritual principles of one of India’s most beloved and ancient sutras with life in the modern world.

Paramahamsa Prajnanananda
The word ‚mother‘ is not just said with the lips, it is also said with the heart. The mother was our first link to a strange and unfamiliar world, and a constant source of tender care and compassion. No wonder that blessed word evokes such a sense of comfort and love in the heart of the listener. But where did the mother get her angelis qualities, and what is this mysterious concept known as motherhood? Is it simply a label bestowed on a woman who nurtures and raises children? Or is there more to this notion than meets the eye? Divine Motherhood is an enlightening and fascinating exploration into the multi-faceted, multi-dimensional concept of the divinity of motherhood. Paramahamsa Prajnanananda approaches this subject with the unparalleled sensitivity and reverence of one who intimately knows the mother’s most profound secrets. Although the divinity of motherhood has been virtually ignored in the West for centuries, the yogis of India have long understood Her significance. Under Paramahamsa Prajnanananda’s loving direction, we quickly discover that to see the Mother in the outer world is not enough, we must also find the Mother within.
