Centuries ago, Shri Adi Shankara roamed the length and breadth of India with a group of sincere devotees, propagating the message of Advaita Vedanta, the belief that the atman (the soul) and God are one. 

A Rosary of Questions and Answers: the Prashnottari of Acharya Shankara is a series of fundamental questions about the nature and reality of life, questions that were posed to the master by some of his most devout devotees.

To enhance a seeker’s understanding, Paramahamsa Prajnanananda, offers his enlightening and thought-provoking commentary on this spiritual masterpiece. 

In this marvelous book based on the teachings of Swami Swatmarama Yogindra, the fifteenth century author of the Hatha Yoga Pradipika, a classical text on yoga, we learn that a yogi is someone who has mastered the art of living. We discover that “yoga” is a small word for an immense state of being.

In his commentary on Swami Swatmarama Yogindra’s work, Paramahamsa Prajnananandaji explains that we can do this through the sincere practice of detachment from weaknesses and attachment to good qualities.

This book is a treasure for those seeking a way to bring practical spirituality into daily life. By following the great sage’s straightforward instructions, success on the spiritual path is surely within our reach. This simple, concise, and practical manual on yoga provides guidance and inspiration.

Among India’s most notable spiritual personalities perhaps no one has captured the hearts and imaginations of seekers as fondly as the incomparable Devarshi Narada. Stories of his illustrious life and teachings can be found as far back as the ancient Vedas, as well as in many later spiritual texts. Those familiar with this great being know that his contribution to human evolution is incomprehensible. As we read the many accounts of the sage’s life, we find that he could be just as vulnerable as we are. At other times he was a mystical, magical time traveller who navigated through dimensions to deliver messages between earth and heaven.

To live each moment in ecstatic bliss and love seems an impossible dream. But for those who fully immerse themselves in the practice of bhakti, love and devotion for God, this dream can become a reality. When God is your only desire and the true beloved in your heart, the yoke of life becomes lighter, and the phantom shackles of the world will fall away. The beauty of bhakti is its simplicity. It can be practiced by anyone, anywhere, regardless of culture or faith. The only requirement is a willingness to open your heart to the boundless and unconditional love of God; then, you will manifest love during every thought, word, and action. Ultimately, you will attain union with the Divine. This declaration is affirmed by the celestial Sage Narada in the immortal Bhakti Sutra of Narada. 

Most of us will agree that life is as we make it. But do we consider how we make our lives? Do we spend our days criticizing and finding fault in others? If so, how does this tendency affect us? What far-reaching and enduring effect does it have on the lives of those we criticize? The faultfinding tendency is a double-edged sword: Often camouflaged as “just telling the truth” or “frankness,” it is a weapon that often injures both the wielder and the victim.

In this helpful and enlightening little booklet, dedicated to the Yogavatar of Love, Paramahamsa Yoganandaji, Paramahamsa Prajnananandaji explains the negative effects of faultfinding and offers practical insight into overcoming this destructive tendency. He shows us why happiness will elude us until we eradicate it from our lives.

Humility is perhaps the least understood, but the most important, of all virtues. No good quality can be deemed a virtue unless it is grounded in humility. When seekers of Truth lack humility, they stand still on the path of spiritual growth. If we are not humble, our good qualities are nothing more than fodder for the false ego — the ego that prevents us from knowing who we really are.

In this small but thought-provoking book, Paramahamsa Prajnananandaji dispels misconceptions often associated with humility. We learn how and why humility creates invincible strength. We learn that it is not a weakness as many believe it to be. Through deep spiritual insight and his own experiences the master clearly outlines the steps that must be taken to cultivate humility.

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.

A series of talks on the topic of anger, given by Paramahamsa Prajnanananda at the 2017 Sydney retreat.

Karma is a universal and systematic law that automatically delivers the consequences of good or bad actions.
Are there different kinds of karma? How do our actions create karma? How is karma carried to the next life? Can we be free from the bondage of karma? This fascinating subject opens the door to an infinite number of unanswered questions. In this rare and essential handbook, Paramahamsa Prajnanananda skillfully explains the often misunderstood inner workings of this dynamic law. He gives us the tools we need to break free from the karmic prison.

Many aspire to follow a spiritual path, but there are a select few who have the real desire to go much deeper in their practice. In this book, spiritual luminary Shri Rabinarayan Das Babaji reaches out to those who aspire to turn their total attention to the Divine as well as those who have already embarked on their journey but who perhaps are in need of a little direction.

The author takes a step-by-step approach to explaining the path of sadhana, and does so with the fiery and perfectionist passion that he was so lovingly known for. In doing so, he underlines the nature and the importance of the guru–disciple relationship and why determination, strength, loyalty, and total surrender are essential on the part of the sadhaka.

“Kriya Yoga is a scientific technique. It is the easiest, quickest, simplest technique for God-realization.” These were the heartfelt words of Paramahamsa Hariharanandaji, the renowned Kriya Yoga master who tested and proved the effectiveness of this transformational technique for himself. He devoted his life to tirelessly propagating the message of Kriya Yoga for the advancement of a disillusioned humanity.

This book outlines the various stages of Kriya yoga, their techniques and effects.

To be victorious on the spiritual path, we must overcome the obstacles that prevent us from realizing our true potential. Most of us perceive that obstacles stem from difficult circumstances or people, but a yogi perceives things differently. A yogi knows that the source of every obstacle is rooted in our own thoughts and feelings. To achieve spiritual growth and win the sacred battle of life, we must make every effort to identify our inner obstacles and vanquish them.

This book teaches us the practical skills we need to conquer these obstacles that bind us; to be free.
