Paramahansa Yogananda

Paramahansa Yogananda inaugurated the custom of holding an all-day Christmas meditation at the international headquarters of his society, Self-Realization Fellowship, to experience the true meaning of Christmas — the awakening of the Christ Consciousness (the universal cosmic intelligence of Spirit everywhere present in creation). He is the author of The Second Coming of Christ: The Resurrection of the Christ Within You (Self-Realization Fellowship, www.yogananda.org). Reprinted with permission.
