Part 13/Final - Autobiography of a Yogi | Ruchi Shukla |

I welcome you all to the last video on the book session, Autobiography of a Yogi. And friends…like the previous videos, we will see today too, how keeping faith and trust in the Divine is quintessential for living.
The year was late 1936 and it was Christmas time. We know that as a ritual, gifts are presented on this day, and Yogananda…he had collected presents from wherever he traveled during his trip to India.
He bought a sari of golden Banarasi silk for sister Gyanamata, who was in charge of Mt. Washington centre during Yogananda’s absence.
And for his another beloved disciple, Mr. Dickinson…Yogananda gifted him a silver cup. And the moment Mr. Dickinson was given this silver cup, he couldn’t believe that he was being presented with this esteemed gift. On seeing the silver cup, recalled that part of his life…which till date Mr. Dickinson, had not shared with anyone. And friends…his story is absolutely amazing and incredible…

Yogananda had often voiced this prediction: I will not die in bed, but with my boots on, speaking of God and India. On March 7, 1952, this prophecy was fulfilled.

Before this life is snatched away friends, make the Infinite visible to you now. Don’t put off your search for God until your old age, or hope to somehow reach Him when you die. A thief is a thief before sleep; after sleep, he is a thief still. Similarly, we don’t become angels, or we don’t merge with that Divine consciousness, when we die. We are the same after death as before. So, now is the time to find Him. And when He comes, we will know such joy, such love, bliss, wisdom, and such understanding, which we have not known before!
