New Book Release

Revelations of Christ, Proclaimed by Paramhansa Yogananda, presented by his disciple Swami Kriyananda. Book launched in Los Angeles, CA in 2007. More information at www.crystalclarity.com
 Short review: This book was partly written as a response to the "fictionalization of Christianity" presented in the world-famous novel "The Da Vinci Code."  Kriyananda makes the case that the complete truth of Christ is neither based in fundamentalist Christian dogma nor in contrived intellectual attacks by modern scientists and writers such as Dan Brown. The truth of Christianity as given by Paramhansa Yogananda? One should perceive and believe in the consciousness of Jesus Christ, which lives within every soul. This is a great work by a great modern yogi, Swami Kriyananda. -J.S.B., Ananda Grand Junction.
