- Self-Realization Fellowship monk Brother Sevananda discusses how to put into practice Paramahansa Yogananda's counsel on rising above life’s challenging circumstances:
“If you make up your mind that you are going to control your circumstances by living according to spiritual laws, then by the power of those laws your circumstances will adjust themselves accordingly.”
This deeply encouraging talk was recorded at the 2019 SRF World Convocation in Los Angeles.

I first listened to this talk live in 2019 as a new student of SRF lessons and back then, I didn’t know how to answer Brother’s question, are we letting life’s circumstances control us? I listened to it again when it was recently released and my answer was a resounding no. A few weeks later, I listened to it again, and this time, the answer was a resounding yes. It seems to be a constant battle, and on this day, I was loosing that battle. Self-control, devotion and the techniques - all those I had. But, I realized that not reading the lessons was taking me away from Guru. Read, re-read and continue to read the lessons - it is just like Master going to his guru’s ashram and listening to him, meditating with him. Thank you Brother, thank you Guru.
Awesome… yep constant battle all the time
Brother Sevananda's talks are all outstanding. The way he delivers Master's messages really speak to my heart and soul. Very grateful to him and all who made this upload possible! Jai Guru
Thankful to Self Realization Fellowship. Thank you Brother Sevanandaji for this inspiring service. Master Paramahansa Yogananda and Daya Mata are deathless immortals beings one with God. It's a heart touching story that the devotee received a call from our beloved Daya Mata. Even though she was meditating in her room her Omnipresent consciousness knew passing of his wife. In the same way she is conscious of our lives also. We are not alone. So comforting are the words of Lord Krishna. May God and Guru bless us all. Jai Guru Jai Ma 🙏🏻 💖
Brother, may be Brother Premamoy one day call you a Saint. Jai Guru 🙏🏻 🙏🏻
Superb! What a great sense of humour you have, Brother!! Thank you for this wonderful talk...

Stellar talk/speech
Pranam Swamiji. Love listening to your videos. Your humour is icing on the cake. The one and only time that I met you was when you had come to Cuttack. One day I'll have that good fortune again. May God and gurus bless you forever. Jai Guru.
I was blessed to hear this ..guru Guru..God..us ..we are not but for their grace n then we really aren't there at all..we are light..
This is so appropriate to the current situation of the world may Guru bless us all Jai Guru 🙏
Immense gratitude for these words. Thanks to you and all monks and nuns.
We are so fortunate to have the super hero monks and nuns who gave their lives to God and Guru and can then give us help in our own journey.
Dear Brother Sevananda,
I enjoyed this talk so much, I had to listen twice.
Thank You. Jai Guruji Jai Ma 🙏🏼ॐ💙💜ॐ🌍🕊ღ
This was awesome! And well needed…i love that ‘be of good cheer ‘. 7 years ago when I started my brain tumor adventure Bro. Ritananda to;d me to ‘hold onto the Guru ’. It is so so comforting to know that Guru is with me. Jai Guru 🕉
Jai Gurudeva Paramhansa Yogananda Ji. 🙏. 💐
Well, this was great timing. Some circumstances came up that were beyond my control as I was listening to this talk. I observed myself feeling ruffled, then all of Guruji's teachings kicked in. I purposely calmed myself, drawing my energy to my spine and brain and considered your three points: self-control, devotion, pranayama. I silently thanked the cause (person) who displayed the inconsiderate behavior that provided the circumstance to practice self-mastery. I was victorious. Guruji and Brother Sevananda and Daya Ma, thank you for this perfect timing of spiritual support! By the way, I'm 29, plus shipping and handling.
Beautiful and I thank you...the last sentence is perfect... and ❤
Your words helped me too Marquerite!
Same for me! Last night, something came up for me and BOY, I better remember to meditate and have gratitude!
I’ve been sleeping on the thought of what I need, in regards to meditation.
And today.., I must dive deep and remember,? Or fall!
Just sincerely thank you!
Peacehug

Jai Guru. I listen many times. Everytime, it empowers the soul, clarity better. More relaxing, esp after challenging times, i prefer to dive into the inspirational talk, even before thinking of resting in any other way. Very lively. Thank you Brother and all at our SRF/YSS ashrams for channelising our Divine Gurus voice through all of you.
