This newly revised and expanded edition of this life-changing book commemorates Swami Kriyananda’s 60th year of discipleship to Yogananda. It includes a new cover and introduction and special sections not published in the original. Seventy years ago, a young American of thirteen dedicated himself to a search for truth. He at once rejected the values to which he’d been raised: prosperity, security, social acceptance and worldly ambition. But where lay the answers? He began with science; proceeded to social reform and then sought self-transformation through the arts. Each path he tried led to a dead end. At last he realised that the only force in history that has done any lasting good is religion. In a moving chapter of this book he describes how he agonised over the question, ‘What is God?’ The answer he received led him at last to Autobiography of a Yogi, and, thence, to its author, Paramhansa Yogananda, whom he accepted as his guru. The rest of the book is the only extant, complete account of what it was like to live in close proximity to that great man of God - one who, our author deeply believes, was destined to bring major changes to the world.
Here, the teaching, the message, and the life of Paramhansa Yogananda are illuminated in a way that makes it possible for us to not only easily access his timeless wisdom, but - through the living example of one of Master’s most devoted disciples - actually apply Eternal Truth to our present-day life. It is impossible for me to think of a greater gift that humanity could receive at this critical time… - Neale Donald Walsch, author of Conversations with God
The New Path is a beautiful account of the experience of working with a great master. It’s a book to be treasured for the breadth and depth of its portrayal of one of the great saints of our time as well as the devotion of its author. -Swami Chetanananda, Director, Nityananda Institute, author of The Breath of God
