Solving the Mystery of Life Path to Self Mastery SB

Few books can claim to hold the answers to life’s greatest questions. In Solving the Mystery of Life, Paramahansa Yogananda not only reveals the meaning and purpose of life, but also clearly explains the spiritual laws by which yogis attain self-mastery, and provides methods and principles to attain true and lasting happiness. From one who solved the mystery of life himself, Yogananda explains the divine laws at work in the universe and how to live in harmony with them.

Yogananda’s talks and classes in the earliest years of his mission were recorded only intermittently. When Sri Daya Mata (who later became president of Self-Realization Fellowship) joined his ashram in 1931, she undertook the task of faithfully recording Yogananda’s hundreds of lectures, classes, and informal talks so that his wisdom and inspiration could be preserved in their original power and purity for generations to come.
