Synopsis

This extraordinary book is the spiritual autobiography of a realized Master, Swami Muktananda. In it he describes his own journey to Self-realization. He reveals the process of transformation that he experienced under the guidance of his Guru, Bhagawan Nityananda, from his initiation in August 1947 to his final attainment of enlightenment nine years later. Imbued with the authority of Swami Muktananda's achievement, this intimate and powerful portrait of his life is a testimony to the power of his devotion. The story of Swami Muktananda's yoga journey on the Siddha Yoga path provides a guide to seekers who aspire to the same goal. The new edition contains many new photographs.

About this title

Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.:

There are so many things inside the human body. If, even once, man could discover his body in meditation, truly he would benefit a great deal from it. Who knows what there is in this body! There are so many chakras just in the head, so many different springs welling with nectar, so many clusters of nerve filaments, so many kinds of musical harmonies, so many different fragrances; there are rays from so many different suns, abodes of so many different deities. Though all this is inside him, man, tragically caught in his delusion, indulges himself in the arid world outside.
