Swami Kriyananda: Lightbearer

The Life and Legacy of a Disciple of Paramhansa Yogananda

De: Asha Nayaswami

Narrado por: Asha Nayaswami

In the early 1970s, Swami Kriyananda asked Asha to start taking notes for the book he knew she would someday write. He explained himself to her in a way he did to only a few others. Since then, she has stayed in constant contact with him, as a devotee, friend, personal assistant, and eventually, a spiritual teacher in her own right.

It's a rare gift to live with a true teacher. Experience it for yourself, as Asha brings you into meetings, conversations, personal counseling, living rooms, classrooms, long walks, meetings, and meditations.

Swami's life was a triumphant life, but not an easy one. Plagued by ill-health, financial challenges, and years of bitter estrangement from fellow disciples, his life story is told in the struggle as well as the victory. A great soul incarnates to awaken faith in our own spiritual potential. Asha writes, "A great wave of Divine Light is sweeping over the planet. If you tune in to that Light, you, too, will become an instrument of that Light."

This first-hand account of life with Swami Kriyananda is more than a biography. It's a guidebook for spiritual living, a path of light that all may follow. And it's a labor of love by Asha that has been 44 years in the making.

It’s beautiful

An amazing life given in service to God and Guru! A perfect life of discipleship.

A walk down Swamiji's life with Ashaji.

This is an inspirational book that throws light on aspects of Swamiji's life that are lesser known. Ashaji's narration brings those words a special quality. I read the book and listened to the audiobook parallely. Swamiji's blessings are palpable in the book. A must read for all truthseekers.

Amazing!

Asha tells Swami’s story with such insight and devotion. It was an immense pleasure to follow her narrative and Ananda Sangha’s footsteps.

Wonderful and inspired story of a great yogi!

Nayaswami Asha's account of Swami Kriyananda was filled with so much love! I felt like I could feel the love, divine friendship, and devotion of Swamiji for his great Guru Parmhansaji. I will always cherish this account of this great soul ❤.

Unforgettable

I LOVED this book. In Audible Asha's Voice is pleasing to the ear. When writing this I've heard it 3x..."the message came through"......

Many gifts

I recommend this book to anyone of Ananda or anyone who is interested in reading about the life of someone on the path to union with God. To learn so many details of someone so dedicated and talented is a gift to me along my path. I am not close geographically to anyone who follows Paramhansa Yogananda, yet while I listened to this book, I felt very close to Swami Kriyananda. His humanity and growth in his understanding and expression of his discipleship is a story one would not want to miss. At the beginning of the book, it may seem too detailed or repetitive, but stick with it and the joy and wisdom to be gained is great.

Inspiring

A must read for those of us who enjoy the work of this great soul.

Amazing story of an amazing Man

This book is read by the author and close friend of Swami Kriyananda. His life was extraordinary and beautifully told by the author. This book captured me and I finished it in less than two weeks. I didn't want it to end. And finally some detailed perspective on what SRF had been doing to Ananda all those years by someone with a front row seat.

One Avatar, Two Phenomenons

The Avatar, of course is Paramahansa Yogananda and, the Phenomenons are Swami Kriyananda for his staggering amount of work he left for us all... his writing, music and speaking. Nayaswami Asha is a phenomenon for her devotion to Master and Swamiji but, also for her unbelievable memory and verbal facility to but it into communicative understanding for all of us who may not

a must-read for any Paranahansa Yogananda follower

I always knew that the self realization was not the same after Master passed the second book they did of autobiography of a yogi was awful!
Changing things around.
any.
one that would do that could not have Masters best interest at heart.
