Brother Chidananda: Paramahansa Yogananda’s Advice About World Predictions (video)

October 05, 2022

“I make one prediction now: The world is not going down to destruction,” Paramahansa Yogananda said at a talk in 1948 at a dinner in honor of Mahatma Gandhi. “So don’t be frightened. Believe in your Father. He will protect you if you remember His ideals, if you keep faith in Him.”

In this excerpt from the talk “Attuning Our Lives With God’s Plan,” Brother Chidananda, president and spiritual head of Self-Realization Fellowship/Yogoda Satsanga Society of India, counsels us on what it means to have such faith; and suggests that we hold on to a positive attitude and the far-reaching and balanced wisdom to be found in Paramahansaji’s teachings.

This full talk, and many more from SRF’s Online Weekly Inspirational Service Series, can be found on our Video & Audio Teachings Library.
