Guru Poet – Paramahansa Yogananda

Posted by Linda Sue Grimes Apr 17, 2009

Paramahansa Yogananda’s poetry complements his teachings by dramatizing the plight of the devotee who has chosen to journey to the realization of his/her spiritual self.

The following articles offer commentaries on three of the great yogi’s poems from his seminal work, Songs of the Soul. Each of these three articles has received the Editor’s Choice Award.

Yogananda's "The Human Mind": Cities of Thoughts

January Poet - Paramahansa Yogananda: "The Screen of Life"

Yogananda’s "Vanishing Bubbles": Mayic Evanescence

I am in the process of composing a commentary for each poem in Paramahansa Yogananda’s Songs of the Soul. I have completed about forty commentaries, all of which have appeared here in Poetry at Suite. For a list of all the commentaries thus far completed, please visit Other Yogananda Articles.
