The portrayal of Younganada as a reluctant missionary is correct; he was a monk who wanted a simple life in service to God. The film portrays: his life, the linage of Kriya Yoga, his efforts to present a way to our inner divinity and the challenges of trying to get a message across in a completely foreign culture. No dogma, other than possibly "Seek ye first the kingdom of God", is presented. A solid mechanism for spiritual evolution was made available through his efforts. In watching this, it's very easy to think Yogananda egotistical. Actually, he wasn't, he was just profoundly devoted, and didn't realize the distain modern audiences could feel toward a spiritual authority figure. A warm, moving and inspiring portrayal of a man who endured ignorance and loneliness in order to offer a mechanism for spiritual communion.
It met my expectations and then some. I am really into him right now...it was inspiring! The sound of his voice, the things he says "the brain and spinal cord are the alters of God" ...how absolutely awesome is that????
Wonderful documentary on the life of the great saint Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda.
beautiful !!! highly recommended !!!
