A Vedantic Interpretation of the Gospels by Sri Yogananda Parts 1 & 2

I'm very pleased to find the cassette that had these 2005 episodes on it. I didn't think I would. Here I enjoy a conversation with Swami Chidananda, one of the main editors that worked intensely on the Gospel commentaries written over the span of many years by Paramhansa Yogananda. The noted Hindu mystic saw the Judeo-Christian scriptures through a Vedantic lens that is quite close to that of some sects of the ancient Gnostics. I'm speculating, of course; but I get the idea that if Emerson or Thoreau had access to the pages of this book ("The 2nd Coming of Christ") they might say, "Yes! That's what Jesus was trying to say!"

It was an honor to speak to Chidananda. Aside from being a wonderful person in his own right, in 2017 he assumed the presidency of Self Realization Fellowship, becoming the spiritual successor to Yogananda.
