Silence isn’t just golden; it is divine. Silence is inherently sacred. It is multidimensional, vast, and eternal. Unfortunately, in our social media-driven lives most of us know little about it. In the outer world, silence can lead us to better communication skills and stronger relationships. In the inner world, it can lead us to communion with God. There is no greater teacher than silence. In the holy classroom of silence, all of life’s secrets are revealed.

In this amazing, one-of-a-kind book Paramahamsa Prajnanananda teaches us the importance and impact of practicing silence. Few of us realize the value of silence, how it can lead to self-mastery, and how it can accelerate spiritual growth. Practicing silence is not escapism; it connects us to life at its deepest level. When we enter the temple of silence, we are not escaping from life; instead, we are learning how to live to the fullest.

The life and teachings of Lahiri Mahashaya.

While leading an ordinary life amidst every sort of adversity possible to the worldly man, Lahiri Mahasaya was able to reach the apogee of Self-realization. Through the practice of the divine and immortal Kriya Yoga, he not only sanctified his life, but was able under the guidance of his master Mahavatar Babaji to spread the teaching and practice of Kriya Yoga throughout India, and through his disciples, throughout the world.

The ancient technique of Kriya Yoga was rediscovered in the nineteenth century by Lahiri Mahasaya. A husband and father, he nonetheless led an exceptional spiritual life.

In this book Swami Prajnanananda Giri tells us a little about the mysterious Himalayan yogi known as Mahavatar Babaji, who re-introduced Kriya Yoga to modern times through his desciple Lahiri Mahasaya in 1861. 

From their first pilgrimage to the Himalayan Mountains, Paramahamsa Prajnanananda and Swami Brahmananda formed a bond of friendship that would serve them both as a source of strength and support in their pilgrimage through life. Their complementary natures and uniformity of mind brought them together in their love and devotion to Gurudev Baba Hariharananda and their service in bringing Kriya Yoga to the world.

For over twenty years, their friendship was the personification of Kriya principals: spiritual growth, love without attachment or expectation, and selfless service to God, masters and humanity. The story of their friendship is an inspiration to all and conveys invaluable lessons for both practical life and progression on the spiritual path.

Ages ago in ancient India a great king sat at the feet of Avadhuta, a naked sage, and asked that very question. He sensed that the incomparable sage had found the secret to attaining the happiness that he so desperately sought. “How did you achieve your knowledge? Who is your guru?” asked the eager king. When Avadhuta answered, the soul of the story began.

Paramahamsa Prajnanananda lovingly narrates the simple yet thought-provoking tale of Avadhuta and his twenty-four gurus. This tale helps us discover that the secret to true happiness is linked to our perception of the world. When viewed through the eyes of innocence and wonder, the entire world can become a magical classroom, abounding with teachers at every turn.

This commentary on the beautiful and heartfelt prayer of Queen Gandhari (found in the Prapanna Gita) awakens us to the significance of expanding our concept of God. The divine relationship is not only uplifting and fulfilling; it is also enlightening.

The new expanded edition of this much-loved book offers stories and insights not previously included.

We often pursue the goal of Self-realization without understanding what is needed to attain it. The scriptures tell us that we must purify the mind to succeed on the spiritual path. But what does that mean, and how do we accomplish it?

Although the Amritabindu Upanishad is a minor Upanishad, its message is vital: Success on the spiritual path only comes through continuous perseverance and practice. One must make a sincere effort to rise above the play of the mind. The Amritabindu Upanishad is a masterpiece of spiritual wisdom, and the insightful commentary of Paramahamsa Prajnanananda complements it beautifully. Paramahamsaji has an extraordinary ability to interpret the Truth expounded in scriptures in a way that is relevant to modern times. Seekers on the path will find this book invaluable. It addresses many common and sometimes complex problems and misconceptions that we face on the journey to Self-realization.

Durga Saptashati, also known as the Chandi or Devi Mahatmya, is an ancient scripture with 700 verses that extol the power of the Divine Mother in battle. Paramahamsa Prajnanananda beautifully explains how the raging battles actually demonstrate the love of the Mother. In this three volume commentary, he describes the nurturing power of the Mother, marveling over how She simultaneously wakens the sleeping child, disciplines the restless one, and uplifts the one seeking liberation.

Shri Gurudev Paramahamsa Hariharanandaji often stressed the critical role that environment and culture play in our lives. Maintaining a loving and calm inner environment is first and foremost when it comes to spiritual advancement. However, we cannot ignore the impact and influence that people and places have had on our evolution. This remarkable book is far more than a loving tribute to our beloved Shri Gurudev; it is a tribute to everyone and everything that helped shape his character and life.

In writing this book Paramahamsa Prajnananandaji honours a few of the important people and places in his beloved Master's life. He also teaches us about the attitude of love and respect we so desperately need. Our beloved and humble Shri Gurudev achieved the pinnacle of realisation. As we quickly discover, every day of his life was a tribute to everyone who helped him achieve it.
