Listen "Achieving Spiritual and Material Success"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, SRF monk Brother Achalananda conveys wisdom from Paramahansa Yogananda on how we can find the greatest success and fulfillment in both our inner and outer endeavors.Within each one of us lie divine powers — such as willpower, positive thought, and initiative — that enable us to achieve our noblest pursuits. When we continually practice these in our daily lives, while striving to attune with the Divine Will through meditation, we can build a truly successful life — one centered in the happiness and security of the soul.In this talk Brother Achalananda refers to Yogananda, guru and founder of Self-Realization Fellowship/Yogoda Satsanga Society of India, simply as “Master,” being a reverential way to address one’s guru and signifying a soul who has achieved full self-mastery. This talk was recorded at the 1995 SRF World Convocation in Los Angeles.You can help more people find and benefit from Yogananda's practical wisdom by rating and reviewing this podcast.
