Oswald Pereira in this book captures both the essence of the autobiography and Yogananda\u2019s core teachings. The author analyses the autobiography in the first part of the book, while in the second part, he evaluates Yogananda\u2019s philosophy of universalism, unity and oneness of people and of religions and discusses the parallelisms between Krishna and Christ\u2019s teachings, Kriya Yoga\u2019s scientific technique of God-contact, and various other aspects of God. He compares Sri Ramakrishna and Swami Vivekananda\u2019s philosophy of universalism with that of Yogananda. Yogananda\u2019s metaphysical gyan helps us to renew God-contact and rediscover the joy within. His philosophy of universalism and oneness is also very relevant in today\u2019s environment of communal disharmony and discord.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":10042,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_cat":[79,69,71],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-10038","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-biographies","7":"product_cat-new-arrivals","8":"product_cat-non-fiction","9":"pa_book-author-oswald-pereira","11":"first","12":"instock","13":"shipping-taxable","14":"purchasable","15":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.crisscrosssolutions.in\/Vitasta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/10038","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.crisscrosssolutions.in\/Vitasta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.crisscrosssolutions.in\/Vitasta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.crisscrosssolutions.in\/Vitasta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10038"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.crisscrosssolutions.in\/Vitasta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10042"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.crisscrosssolutions.in\/Vitasta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10038"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.crisscrosssolutions.in\/Vitasta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=10038"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.crisscrosssolutions.in\/Vitasta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=10038"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
