After a lengthy examination, the optometrist smiled and announced that my eyes were perfectly healthy. “I think,” she said, with a newly neutral expression, “it’s a brain issue.”
I heard a melody in my head and the words of Yogananda, paraphrasing Jesus: “Who is my brother, who is my sister, who is my mother, save he who loves God?”
Rajarshi Janakananda, Paramhansa Yogananda’s chief disciple, was just at the point before he attained the highest enlightenment, when suddenly his meditations became filled with darkness.
Was there a divine message, I wondered when, 15 feet up a utility pole repairing phone service at Ananda Village, I saw a rainbow in a beautiful blue summer sky?
"I lost sight of you for a few incarnations, but I shall never lose sight of you again." Losing sight of disciples should be on the "prohibited" list of any handbook for a guru!
by Swami Kriyananda, recorded 2012 at Ananda Italy
Christ came to show us how we have the potential to be like Him. The resurrection symbolized in Easter is that each of us try to start anew every day, with every breath.
