Swami Kriyananda on LIFEChanges With Filippo
 
Swami Kriyananda is one of the world's foremost experts on meditation, yoga, and spiritual practice. He has authored more than 140 books and composed over 400 pieces of music. Kriyananda is a member of the Club of Budapest, where he serves along with the Dalai Lama, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Mikhail Gorbachev, Elie Wiesel, Jane Goodall, Peter Gabriel, and other leaders of the planetary evolution of consciousness.



A prolific and internationally regarded author, speaker, accomplished composer, playwright, artist, and world-renowned spiritual teacher, Swami Kriyananda refers to himself simply as a humble disciple of the great spiritual leader Paramhansa Yogananda.



Our audience will have a rare and unique opportunity to bask in the wisdom of a revered spiritual leader seldom accessible to the public. Swami Kriyananda is the last still-teaching direct disciple of Paramhansa Yogananda--world famous spiritual leader and author of Autobiography of a Yogi.



Swami Kriyananda will expound on the teachings of Yogananda.



There are times when a human being, though perhaps not remarkable in himself, encounters some extraordinary person or event that infuses his life with great meaning, recalls Kriyananda. My own life was blessed with such an encounter in 1948. I met a great, God-known master whose constant vision was of eternity. His name was Paramhansa Yogananda. He was from India, though it would be truer to say that his home was the whole world.



For the last four years of Yoganandas life, the young disciple absorbed his gurus teachings and wisdom, and committed his life to furthering the Masters vision and message. Yogananda appointed him as head of the monastery, authorized him to teach in his name and to give initiation into Kriya Yoga, and entrusted him with the tasks of writing and developing what he called world brotherhood colonies.



And for the last 60 years, Kriyananda has done just that.



Kriyanandas books and audios have sold more than 3.5 million copies worldwide and have been translated into 28 languages. He is the author of more than 140 books on a variety of topics, including leadership, education, creativity, and moral values. His bestselling titles include Awaken to Superconsciousness, God is for Everyone, Conversations with Yogananda, Meditation for Starters, The Art of Supportive Leadership, The New Path My Life with Paramhansa Yogananda, Money Magnetism, The Essence of Self-Realization, Affirmations for Self-Healing, Education for Life, and his bestselling Secrets gift books. He has written extensive commentaries on the Bible and the Bhagavad Gita.

Life Changes Show with Filippo Voltaggio
Show Host
Filippo Voltaggio

Come and join the conversation about what's going on and what we can do together about it, with it, and for it. We have the choice, we have the power. We can do magic if we just believe!

A show about the changes going on in us, to us, around us, and because of us. Therefore, it's technically a show about "Everything," only with a how to make it better, see it better, be better.

In the show, there is talk about, and with, people who have either been through major changes, are helping others with major changes, or people who are changing the world for the better in a major way.

The show is a one-hour talk show format with a monologue by the host, a 30 minute interview with a guest of note, capped by a "Producer's Wrap" segment, in which Filippo and Co-Host Mark Laisure, and sometimes surprise guests, bring it all home for the listeners in a sometimes humorous and sometimes touching, but always entertaining conversation.
