Learning the art of living in this world without giving up the divine image of calmness and joy in which God has created you — that is the mystery of life you have to solve. And that is what Yoga teaches.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Solving the Mystery of Life, the fourth volume in the Collected Talks and Essays series presenting Paramahansa Yogananda’s timeless wisdom on realizing God in daily life, will be released this June. We invite you to pre-order a copy today.

Like its predecessors (Man’s Eternal Quest, The Divine Romance, and Journey to Self-realization), this new anthology brings you the personal counsel and enlightened perspectives Paramahansa Yogananda shared extemporaneously in lectures and classes on the universal path of yoga and how to live triumphantly and with the greatest understanding.
Featuring nearly 40 talks given over a period of three decades, Solving the Mystery of Life offers answers to those seemingly unanswerable questions such as: Why are we here? What is our destiny, and how can we control it? What is God, and if God is good why is there evil in this world? How can we experience greater joy and security no matter what challenges we face?
From one who has solved the mystery of life himself, Paramahansa Yogananda lays out the divine laws at work in the universe — reminding us that we are in essence immortal beings with infinite potential.
Whether you’re new to Paramahansaji’s teachings or a longtime follower, this book is a treasure trove of wisdom to illuminate your spiritual journey.
Solving the Mystery of Life will be available in hardback, paperback, and ebook editions.
