One Life Versus Reincarnation

Paramahansa Yogananda

The eighth in our Collector’s Series of recorded talks by Paramahansa Yogananda offers the opportunity to join the beloved author of Autobiography of a Yogi as he speaks informally in 1949 to the congregation of the Self-Realization Fellowship temple he founded in Hollywood, California. Paramahansaji explains that each soul is given innumerable opportunities for salvation in the grand progression of spiritual evolution through many lives: “Eternal hades is impossible!” he assures us. Nevertheless, he counsels, it is in our highest interest to make the effort in this present incarnation to attune our free will and actions with the eternal laws of divine happiness. Why wait, when the infinite joy and fulfillment of God-consciousness can be ours in this lifetime?
