Inspiring
A simple and inspiring little book....God is everywhere and in your heart....know that you can talk to god anytime...its all inside you!

Recommended for aspiring spiritual seekers!
It is a mistake to think that this book deals with lofty spiritual ideals. "How you can talk with God" is in fact a highly practical book. All those souls who doubt that it is possible to talk with God should read this book and apply the basic principles contained here.

Throughout history, there were many souls who revealed that it is possible to have a conversation with God. Recent examples are Yogananda, Neale Donald Walsh and other saints in India. An atheist may view this book with scorn but if one follows the teachings here, the so-called atheist would be having a daily conversation with God! God is indeed the most approachable and understanding being in the cosmos and by studying the life of the author, one will find that Yogananda was ALWAYS in conversation with the "Soul of souls". In short, this book is recommended to ALL spiritual seekers of ALL faiths.

IF YOU DON'T STRIVE TO DO AS HE SAYS, YOU MAY GET SPARED
The guru inspired people to talk to God - in particular his "Divine Mother", the concept he most often used. The Hindu monk taught she would respond if -- -IF - - and then he gave the conditions. They included a 24 hours concentrated, uninterrupted vigil to implore God Mother to talk to you. Nearly nobody can stay "focused" like that - and besides there are degrees of uninterruptedness, and freakish teachings in other places too. Good yoga, by contrast, is based on letting go of the constructs by contemplating - going inwards mentally. That is a process that is violated by frantic begging for visions -

That sort of practice has unwholesome effects, as noted in more than one follower. One thing is the disappointement to harvest when God Mom does not deign to appear to talk with you - this time either, and so on - in a circus of dualism-based "guru help" in getting nowhere.

Some have gotten awfully disappointed, but only by taking him seriously! Others, religious folks, who just dip into the master's stuff, may get saved from very real dissappointments and embarrassments - enough to mar a monk, it seems.
