Guest guest Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 Dear Friends, On the auspicious occasion of Diwali, I wish to present a gift to all Members of this Forum .Please visit the link given below to read the book "Autobiography of a Yogi" This book is for all whether Hindu,Moslem or Catholic. every one will benefit from the same. http://www.anandaindia.org/freeonline/books/ay/contents.html The Essence of this Book in a small extract from Chapter 26. "The astral system of a human being, with six (twelve by polarity) inner constellations revolving around the sun of the omniscient spiritual eye, is interrelated with the physical sun and the twelve zodiacal signs. All men are thus affected by an inner and an outer universe. The ancient rishis discovered that man's earthly and heavenly environment, in twelve-year cycles, push him forward on his natural path. The scriptures aver that man requires a million years of normal, diseaseless evolution to perfect his human brain sufficiently to express cosmic consciousness. One thousand Kriya practiced in eight hours gives the yogi, in one day, the equivalent of one thousand years of natural evolution: 365,000 years of evolution in one year. In three years, a Kriya Yogi can thus accomplish by intelligent self-effort the same result which nature brings to pass in a million years. The Kriya short cut, of course, can be taken only by deeply developed yogis. With the guidance of a guru, such yogis have carefully prepared their bodies and brains to receive the power created by intensive practice. The Kriya beginner employs his yogic exercise only fourteen to twenty- eight times, twice daily. A number of yogis achieve emancipation in six or twelve or twenty-four or forty-eight years. A yogi who dies before achieving full realization carries with him the good karma of his past Kriya effort; in his new life he is harmoniously propelled toward his Infinite Goal.

Guest guest Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 Dear Bhaskar, I obtained my first copy (Autobiography of a Yogi) in the early '70's. Have had several copies since as I was in the habit of giving them away. I also have the book on cassette (read by actor, Ben Kingsley). Unfortunately I haven't managed to find the time to re-read the book (or listen to the tapes) for some years now. Best Wishes, Mrs. Wendy http://JyotishVidya.com jyotish-vidya ___ - "Bhaskar" <bhaskar_jyotish (AT) (DOT) co.in> <jyotish-vidya> Saturday, October 21, 2006 9:17 PM DIWALI GIFT Dear Friends, On the auspicious occasion of Diwali, I wish to present a gift to all Members of this Forum .Please visit the link given below to read the book "Autobiography of a Yogi" This book is for all whether Hindu,Moslem or Catholic. every one will benefit from the same. http://www.anandaindia.org/freeonline/books/ay/contents.html The Essence of this Book in a small extract from Chapter 26.
