Additional Text by Swami Kriyananda
The Path
is a fascinating story of one man’s search for the truth. J. Donald
Walters (also known as Swami Kriyananda) recounts how as a young man he
examined and discarded as false many of the promises offered by modern
society. Gradually he realized that lasting human happiness comes not from
outer success, but from deepening spiritual awareness. Eventually his
searching brought him to the door of one of the spiritual giants of this
century, Paramhansa Yogananda. Discounted price
(for students in this course)
$12.00.
