We are happy to announce the release of the audiobook version of The Science of Religion, in which Paramahansa Yogananda reveals the common pursuit of lasting happiness that underlies all spiritual and material striving — and describes the universal path to that goal accessible to everyone, regardless of their faith.

The Science of Religion is an amplification by Paramahansaji of his maiden speech in America in 1920. Since its publication, and decades before today’s popular interest in the science of happiness, this book has been introducing readers to the profound understanding Paramahansaji brought to the world from India — a concept that is ancient and yet entirely suited for our modern age — that the purpose of life is to permanently remove suffering and to know oneself as Spirit, “the fountainhead of Bliss.”
In clear, simple language, Paramahansaji describes how Yoga — India’s science of the soul — can lead anyone to experience that Bliss for themselves. “If the methods here suggested are learned and earnestly practiced,” he explains, “you will know yourself to be a blissful spirit and will realize God.”
With the release of the audiobook edition, read by SRF monk Brother Jayananda, we invite you to discover — or revisit in a new format — this profoundly concise explanation of the common goal of all true religions and how to attain it.

Available on Audible, Apple, Kobo, and many other audiobook retailers. Also available for streaming on Spotify and libraries.

I like the way brother Jayananda narrates, he has such a perfect voice for this. I have the original book, but this is wonderful for traveling or if you’re doing other things and want something uplifting to listen to while you’re doing things.
