Hi this is my 1st post,
While reading MBT i recalled chapter 43 from 'AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A YOGI' - 'The Resurrection of Sri Yukteswar', i never fully understood that chapter when i was reading that book two years back, i read it again today and it blew my mind..

http://www.ananda.org/autobiography/#chap43

I dont have words, if you've gone through MBT going through the aforesaid chapter will untie a few knots like never before.
This book was written in 1946 by Paramhansa Yogananda, the subject matter can easily be discredited as supernatural or imaginative mambo jambo, but the sheer complexity of ideas and concepts and their coherence with MBT is amazing, so much so that intuitively i know its true..

what do you say..

Love
Nitin

Hello nitin :)

I think it's your second post :p

Thanks for linking the chapter, I just read it. It's very beautifully written, and like you, I see the connection with MBT and are able to decipher the metaphors.

My intuition also says it's true, and it gives great joy to know of the unimaginable potentials of consciousness, our own consciousness.

See you all in the Sea of Bliss, One Cosmic Ocean :)

nitin,

Thanks for posting that link. I have not seen that book for over 55 years. I only have a memory of the title and having read it, not of the contents. I did not know it was available on line.

Ted

Hi specialis_sapientia & Ted,
Iindeed, its my second post, but the first one was only a reply to a member, im glad you liked it and the fact that we both have similar views on this matter, if you dont mind please help spread this link in the forum, the intent is to make more data available to people who are in doubt (Though at the end of the day its only a mind exercise but it helps people in understanding the credibility of the subject at hand) Thanks for your reply.
Love Nitin

Nitin: That was a great read thanks for posting the link.

Ted, that text makes it sound like the cosmic soup kitchen has a five star rating, or better.

I am reading this now too Nitin. Thanks very much for sharing this fabulous resource. Prohamansa Yogananda writes so vividly.
