Swami Chidananda Giri, president and spiritual head of Yogoda Satsanga Society of India/Self-Realization Fellowship, encourages devotees to delve deeper into the meaning of shravana, the transformative art of listening to the teachings of the Guru.
Swami Chidanandaji says that when “heard” with receptivity and attunement, Paramahansa Yogananda’s teachings become wisdom embers that remain active in the disciple’s consciousness, springing to life whenever guidance, strength, or clarity is needed in daily life. The Guru’s words challenge disciples to rise above mortal consciousness, actively cultivate the supreme desire for God, and meet the divine halfway. This spiritual discourse was given at the dedication of the newly renovated auditorium of Yogoda Satsanga Sakha Math in Ranchi, officially named “Shravanalaya” (a place of listening) in February 2025.
