Students on Continuing Your Studies


Dear Student,

Now that you are about to complete your study of the 18 basic Lessons, you have the
following options for continuing your study and spiritual progress:

You may now apply for initiation in Kriya Yoga.


• Information on how to apply is enclosed. (See the “Personal Report to the Yogoda
Satsanga Sakha Math, Ranchi.”)
• You can study Lessons 17 and 18 while waiting for response on your Kriya
application.
• Once your application is approved, you will receive the special series of Kriya
Yoga Lessons (after Lesson 18).
If at this time you do not wish to apply for Kriya, we recommend that you continue to
study the Lessons you have already received, from the beginning, to absorb their teach-
ings more thoroughly and deepen your practice of the basic and auxiliary techniques.
Remember, as Paramahansaji said in Lesson 2:

“All techniques and principles of the Yogoda Satsanga teachings have been thor-
oughly tested by practical application. By studying the Lessons again and again,
and by conscientiously applying them, you can test these truths in the laboratory of
your own consciousness and prove them in your own Self-realization.”

Supplement Lessons and


Satsanga With Paramahansa Yogananda Series
Information about subscribing to the Supplement Lessons and the Satsanga With
Paramahansa Yogananda series (described in “An Overview of the Yogoda Satsanga
Lessons in Self-realization”) will be sent to all students of the new Lessons closer to their
release dates in 2020.

The Supplement Lessons contain material intended by Paramahansa Yogananda for


students and Kriyabans of the YSS path, but which was not required to be studied prior
to receiving Kriya Yoga initiation. They include material previously published in earlier
editions of the SRF/YSS Lessons (1925 through 1956 editions) as well as much new mate-
rial from unpublished talks and writings of Paramahansa Yogananda. These valuable
instructions from the writings and classes of Paramahansaji will expand on the how-to-
live principles and meditation techniques you have already received, and provide a wealth
of new guidance, inspiration, and supplementary techniques.

Whether you continue your spiritual journey as a student of the basic Lessons or as a
Kriya Yoga member, we suggest you subscribe to Yogoda Satsanga magazine, a quarterly
publication of lasting value and inspiration, featuring articles by Paramahansa Yogananda,
his close disciples, and other inspirational material to support and enhance your spiritual
advancement. The magazine, as well as our free eNewsletter (available by subscribing on
our website), will help you to stay connected with YSS and receive news of our activities
and offerings.

We wish you the greatest success in your spiritual endeavours, whatever step you de-
cide to take next on the path of Self-realization.
