Synopsis "The Seventh Life: What I Learned Editing, Researching, and Republishing Yogananda's Praecepta (in English)"
This book is a result of my efforts researching, editing, and republishing Yogananda's seven steps of "Your Praecepta." Those efforts were happy because I was able to make available to the public what had, throughout my forty years of Self-Realization Fellowship membership, been available only by snippets and quotes. Those efforts however forced me to confront, understand, digest, and re-conceptualize my understanding of the guru-disciple relationship.An extensive reference section with many original documents, handwritten letters, and eye witness accounts is included in the Appendix. Some handwritten materials of the Appendix are hard to read in published size, so it has been placed on the website http: //amanuensis.us/page305.html rather than be published in this edition.This book celebrates not only Yogananda's life, but that of three of his closest assistants, Dr. Basu Kumar Bagchi (formerly Swami Dhiranandaji, and Sri and Srimati Nerode. The result is a reading of the meaning of Krishna's Bhagavad-Gita teaching that God alone is the Doer in this drama of life.
