The Story Behind the Story
My Life of Service Through Writing

Description

In this book, you'll step "behind the scenes" and explore the inspirations that led Swami Kriyananda to write all of his books (now numbering more than 80), from his first book, Yours—the Universe!, printed on a mimeograph machine, to his most recent books such as Conversations with Yogananda, a world-wide bestseller printed on three continents.

Paramhansa Yogananda started Swami Kriyananda on the path of writing when he told his young disciple: "Your work is writing, edition, and teaching."

Swami Kriyananda explains that he has always seen Yogananda's teachings as the hub of a wheel, from which spokes reach out in all directions to provide valuable insights for all aspects of life. As Kriyananda says, "I set out to write books that would demonstrate how life lived at every level could be given deeper meaning: how one could succeed at anything he wanted, and attain any goal he set for himself. The simple rules of life Yogananda gave to the world can help everyone to achieve the universal goal of all life: happiness."
