Hints of Laughter, Hints of JoyThe Wisdom of Swami Kriyananda, Direct Disciple of Paramhansa Yogananda

This book shares many pearls of wisdom gleaned from forty-three years of the author’s friendship with Swami Kriyananda, a direct disciple of Paramhansa Yogananda.

Yogananda charged Kriyananda to complete a ＂great work＂ on his behalf, one that included the founding of eight communities that have thrived for over fifty years now. The Master envisioned such communities as a model for cooperative spiritual living in the age unfolding before us, and predicted that they would spread ＂like wildfire.＂

Nayaswami Padma worked closely with Swami Kriyananda in a variety of community leadership positions. In this book she shares some of the joys and lessons learned through those many adventures, lessons that will prove invaluable not only to those living and serving in such settings, but to all those who seek to grow spiritually, and to dedicate their lives to living by the highest principles-and in joy.
