Autobiography Chapter 20, Part 4: Parvati Shankari

Yogananda Podcast

This episode covers the large footnote at the end of chapter 20.

Summary:
A footnote dedicated to the divine mother in the form Parvati, her consort Shiva and his numerous exalted devotees. Why does Paramahansa Yogananda hint at the significance of these being rather than stating it clearly for us? We share our personal experiences and insights on Kailash, the types of pilgrims it attracts and share our reflections on the chapter using Guruji’s affirmations.
