“I saw her first through a series of French doors. . . . At once and every time I saw her again during the days to come—even in semi-darkness, when I couldn't distinguish her features—I understood anew Yogananda's words when he wrote of the blessings that flow from the mere sight of a saint. There was no mistaking it. I was beholding a truly divine being." —Swami Kriyananda, describing Anandamayee Ma, Visits to Saints of India Dear John, Even though Paramhansa Yogananda was born a fully-liberated master, he spent much of his youth seeking the company of saints. Like his guru, Swami Kriyananda did the same. From 1958–62 and 1972–73, Kriyananda traveled to India visiting a number of saints, including: Anandamayee Ma, Yogi Ramiah (Sri Rama Yogi), Swami Muktananda, Swami Narayan, and Sathya Sai Baba. Kriyananda’s experiences are chronicled in Crystal Clarity’s latest book, Visits to Saints of India: Sacred Experiences and Insights. Like the visits to saints described by his great Guru’s classic Autobiography of a Yogi, Kriyananda’s story is a transformative journey, a deeply spiritual pilgrimage. “Yet,” as he explains, “it has become a journey and a pilgrimage also for an increasing number of truth seekers today.” Through Kriyananda’s experiences, the reader will be transported to the sacred land of India, to the hallowed presence of the saints Kriyananda visited, and will discover a powerful and deeper connection with India and its holy ones.

WHAT OTHER AUTHORS ARE SAYING “The stories from Visits to Saints of India are especially moving since they are told by a saint, Swami Kriyananda, about his visits with other saints. This book takes the reader into the timeless vibration of divine love, as we witness saints communing with saints. The blessings and inspiration one experiences through Kriyananda’s stories are deeply profound, at times indescribable, and continues to deepen days after reading it.” —Eric Munro, author of Love Breathing: Experience Divine Joy with Every Breath You Breathe “What a thrill to read Visits to Saints of India! Even while taking in the very first paragraphs, as they begin to describe Swami Kriyananda’s visit with the great woman saint Anandamayee Ma, you will find yourself, as I did, thoroughly mesmerized and drawn into his experiences during each episode of his meetings with some of India’s greatest spiritual beings. Paramhansa Yogananda said, ‘If you want to be a saint, mix with the saints!’ This book is an excellent vehicle for enhancing your own life’s pilgrimage to spiritual freedom.” —Savitri Simpson, teacher and author of Chakras for Starters, The Meaning of Dreaming, and the Treta Yuga Trilogy “Western readers have long been enchanted by tales of meetings with Indian gurus, yogis, and saints. When well told, such stories can be a form of divine transmission, and never more so than when recounted by a natural teacher who logged decades of spiritual practice and spent crucial years in the presence of a legendary master. That is what makes this book of sacred memories a unique and valuable addition to any spiritual aspirant’s library.” —Philip Goldberg, author of American Veda and The Life of Yogananda “In Visits to Saints of India, Swami Kriyananda shares his experiences as he visits with the holiest saints of India. The reader gains access to their conversations and experiences the profound blessings “that flow from the mere sight of a saint.” A treasure of an experience for the armchair pilgrim.” —Colleen Heater, author of The Pilgrim's Italy: A Travel Guide to the Saints Or to learn more about Visits to Saints and this offer click here. “I feel Kriyananda’s divine presence and that of the saints he visited as I read his words. This book inspires, uplifts, and allows me the opportunity to peep into his mind and consciousness and to feel the blessings he receives in the presence of those great saints.” —Vanamali Devi, author of The Hindu Way of Life and The Play of God. “Swami Kriyananda’s engaging account brings us along with him into the sacred heart of India, through meetings with its hallowed saints. With unabashed self-honesty, he guides us into the depths of their consciousness. I will reread Visits to Saints of India many times, and I encourage you to do the same. This book is a spiritual pilgrimage.” —Lila Devi, founder of Spirit-in-Nature Essences, author of From Bagels to Curry and other works “Swami Kriyananda’s narrative of original stories describing his visits to Indian saints was a literary high point for me. He has a gift for capturing the essence of great souls.” —Nischala Cryer, author of The Four Stages of Yoga and Reflections on Living 30 Years in a Spiritual Community “It is rare and refreshing to see a saint’s detailed account of his private visits with other saints. Reminiscent of Paramhansa Yogananda’s classic Autobiography of a Yogi, Swami Kriyananda’s fascinating tales sparkle with the spiritual wisdom shared by his hosts, as well as his own insights into their lives and teachings. It is a delightful and inspiring read. —Nayaswami Gyandev McCord, PhD, author of Spiritual Yoga: Awakening to Higher Awareness “A beautiful and inspiring introduction to the spiritual depth of the Indian culture.” —Naidhruva Rush, author of Change Your Magnetism, Change Your Life Or to learn more about Visits to Saints and this offer click here. |
