About this series

The Wisdom Stories Series from the Teachings of Paramhansa Yogananda

They enter into our consciousness, captivating our imagination with interesting characters and fantastic storylines. Beneath the surface, they recount the age-old human drama with circumstances and plots not so very different from our own. Certainly parallels, and more importantly lessons, can be drawn that continue to instruct, and to change the way we live and relate to one another.

This second volume in the WISDOM STORIES SERIES picks up where volume one left off, with stories shared by the great yoga master Paramhansa Yogananda (author of the best-selling spiritual classic title Autobiography of a Yogi) and his close, direct disciple, Swami Kriyananda. These stories have been told for generations, imparting universal values of compassion and understanding, virtue, dharma (right action), and the ability to relate to another’s reality.

About The Wisdom Stories Series

Whether you are a teacher, parent, student, or devotee, these stories are an excellent resource to turn to again and again for inspiration, sharing, and personal study.

In that openness, heart and mind make connections the intellect alone may miss. He told these tales to illustrate the spiritual and practical truths he was teaching. It is not enough to be inspired by spiritual truths. We must be able to apply those teachings to our daily lives. Each story is followed by a “Wisdom Gem,” illuminating spiritually vital topics such as Right Action, Courage, Unconditional Love, Faith, and Wisdom—an enjoyable way to explore and reflect on these universal principles.

Paramhansa Yogananda (1893–1952) was a yogi and guru, best known for introducing millions of Westerners to meditation and yoga through his book, Autobiography of a Yogi. Yogananda was born in Gorakhpur, India, to a religious family. He was taught the way of the yogi and spiritual discipline, and upon graduating from Calcutta University in 1915, became a monk in India’s monastic Swami Order. In 1920, after receiving a spiritual vision, Yogananda traveled to the United States to teach Kriya Yoga to Westerners. He founded the Self-Realization Fellowship and continued to teach in America and India.
