In the science of yoga meditation India has given the answer to how to find Him. I traveled through that land. I sat at the feet of a true master. I am not only convinced that God is, but I give you my testimony of His presence. If you heed my words, from your own realization you too shall someday say that God is. You shall know I tell you the truth. - Paramahansa Yogananda.

If I tell you of a wonderful fruit I have found, and describe it to you in detail every day for a year without ever giving you a taste of it, you won’t be satisfied. Hearing about truth cannot relieve the soul’s hunger....You must hunger so deeply for God that you will seek Him out in earnest. - Paramahansa Yogananda.

You don’t realize how much you miss God, because you have never known Him. Once you do contact Him, no power on earth will be able to turn you away from Him. My only wish is to give you a glimpse of God, because having Him, no other gain is greater. - Paramahansa Yogananda.

I don’t come here to give you sermons, but to give you those truths that I garner from the garden of my experience....What I give to you I want you to realize for yourself through your own personal communion with God. Nothing can match that understanding. - Paramahansa Yogananda.

The great purpose behind this movement is to give people their own Self-realization. When people will realize that it is their duty and privilege to know God, then a new era will come on earth. - Paramahansa Yogananda.
