Scientific Healing Affirmations (Annotated)
Enriched Edition. A Yogic Guide to Mind-Body Healing Through Concentrated Thought, Prayer, and Spiritual Self-RealizationBy Paramahansa Yogananda
Length2h 46m
About this audiobook
Scientific Healing Affirmations presents Paramahansa Yogananda's concise method for uniting thought, will, and divine awareness in the service of bodily and spiritual well-being. Written in a lucid, devotional, and practical style, the book frames affirmation not as mere optimism but as disciplined concentration rooted in yogic psychology. Its brief instructions and prayer-like formulas belong to the early twentieth-century encounter between Vedanta, New Thought, and modern therapeutic language, yet retain the metaphysical seriousness of classical Indian spirituality. Yogananda (1893–1952), the Indian monk who brought Kriya Yoga to the West and founded Self-Realization Fellowship, wrote from a lifetime of meditative practice under the guidance of Sri Yukteswar and from his experience teaching Western audiences. His insistence that spirituality could be "scientific" reflects both his Hindu monastic training and his desire to speak to an age increasingly shaped by psychology, medicine, and empirical ideals. Readers interested in contemplative healing, the history of modern yoga, or the literature of practical mysticism will find this volume illuminating. It is best approached not as a substitute for medical care, but as a disciplined spiritual manual: a compact guide to aligning speech, imagination, and faith with the deeper powers of consciousness.
