description: A remarkable collection of Yogananda's words of wisdom has been lovingly recorded by his direct disciple, Kriyananda. As Kriyananda writes in the introduction to the book, "After I'd been with him (Yogananda) a year and a half, he began urging me to write down the things he was saying during informal conversations". The Essence of Self-Realization includes nearly 300 of these sayings, rich with spiritual insight. The scope of this book is vast -- it offers as complete an explanation of life's true purpose, and the way to achieve that purpose, as may be found anywhere. Just a few of the 20 chapter titles include: -- The True Purpose of Life-- On Meditation-- How to Pray Effectively-- The Law of Karma; The Lesson of Reincarnation-- Ways in Which God Can Be Worshipped
