    About this ebook

    “Man’s word is Spirit in man…” — Paramahansa Yogananda 

    This groundbreaking book reveals the hidden laws for harnessing the power of concentrated thought — not only for physical healing, but to overcome obstacles and create all-around success in our lives.

    Long before the use of affirmations was embraced in diverse mainstream settings as hospitals, recovery programs, sports arenas, and corporate suites, Paramahansa Yogananda understood and taught the deep spiritual principles that make this ancient scientific tool so powerfully effective.

    Includes comprehensive instructions and a wide variety of affirmations for healing the body, developing confidence, awakening wisdom, curing bad habits, and much more.

    Paramahansa Yogananda

    Paramahansa Yogananda (1893-1952) es mundialmente reconocido como una de las personalidades espirituales más ilustres de nuestro tiempo. Nació en el norte de la India, y en 1920 se radicó en Estados Unidos, donde enseñó, durante más de treinta años, la antigua filosofía y la ciencia de la meditación yoga, originarias de la India, así como el arte de vivir en forma equilibrada la vida espiritual. Fue el primer gran maestro del Yoga que vivió y enseñó durante un prolongado periodo en Occidente. Él viajó extensamente impartiendo conferencias en Estados Unidos y en el extranjero, disertando en auditorios de las más importantes ciudades, que registraban siempre un lleno total, y en los cuales revelaba la unidad fundamental que existe entre las grandes religiones del mundo. A través de la célebre historia de su vida, Autobiografía de un yogui, y de sus originales comentarios sobre las escrituras de Oriente y Occidente, así como por medio del resto de sus numerosos libros, él ha inspirado a millones de lectores. Self-Realization Fellowship —la organización internacional que Paramahansa Yogananda fundó en 1920 con el fin de diseminar sus enseñanzas en todo el mundo— continúa llevando a cabo su obra espiritual y humanitaria.

      About This Book

      When Paramahansa Yogananda first introduced, more than seventy years ago, the principles and techniques presented in Scientific Healing Affirmations, the discoveries that have since made mind/body healing a household word were still decades away. Throughout those years, this pioneering work has taught hundreds of thousands of readers basic skills of directly accessing and applying the remarkable healing power hidden in every human being—skills now finding their way into mainstream medicine through the converging vision of physics, psychology, neuroscience, and spirituality.

      It was during a 1924 series of lectures in Portland, Oregon, that Paramahansa Yogananda presented for the first time to the public his teaching on the science of affirmation and divine healing. From then on, prayer affirmations—along with fascinating explanation of the scientific and spiritual principles that make them effective—became a feature of many of his lectures and class series on yoga philosophy and meditation, which were attended by capacity audiences in major cities all over the United States. An article in the Washington Post, January 17, 1927, described one such occasion:

      "More than 5,000 persons, several of them prominent locally, joined in chanting the slow, sonorous ritual of the scientific healing services conducted by Swami Yogananda, Indian teacher, metaphysician and psychologist, and founder of several Yogoda centers in this country, last night at the Washington Auditorium.

      "The slow incantation ended with several prolonged repetitions of ‘I am whole, for Thou art in me,’ the word [Aum] toward the last, prolonged for more than a minute….

      The Swami explained that the power of the healing was drawn by concentration, devotion, and faith of affirmation from the Cosmic Spirit, or God, by himself, and transmitted to the audience on the vehicle of vibrating sound, which he declared caused a chemical change in the body cells, and a new ordinance of the cells of the brain, provided, of course, that the recipient of the vibrating waves concentrate properly and was imbued with devotion.

      Thy faith hath made thee whole. Paramahansa Yogananda often quoted these words of Jesus Christ, pointing out that one’s inner receptivity is vital in effecting healing. The Cincinnati Enquirer, October 16, 1926, quoted some of the author’s own words on the healing power of chanting and affirmation:

      "Before an untrained audience of 3,000 in Carnegie Hall, New York, and before an almost similar crowd in the Soldiers’ Memorial Hall, Pittsburgh, without any rehearsal I started chanting and asked the audience to follow with me. During the chantings or affirmations I ask my audience to relax and understandingly chant affirmations of health, prosperity, and spiritual realization….

      "The saints of India from very ancient times
