Who is the Self in Self-Realization?
July 7, 2026 @ 7:30 pm – 9:00 pm PDT
Superconsciousness is the term Paramhansa Yogananda coined in describing the Self. Derived from Advaita Vedantic teachings but not including the need for devotion, the Self of Self-realization cannot be easily defined but can be intuitively known.
In this class series with Nayaswami Hriman we explore the many facets and ways to experience this Self of Self-realization. There are many stages of realization and an infinite number of attributes of its experience.
We will use Yogananda’s creative visualizations, his concentration technique of Hong Sau, chanting, and entering the inner silence to awaiting the coming of the Light.
