Part-2: My Master Swami Jnanananda Giri, Great Kriya Yoga Guru of the Himalayas, giving satsanga, spiritual talk and singing kirtan. Swamiji gives satsangs daily at sunset for one hour. Guru of Swami Jnanananda was Swami Atmananda Gir, childhood friend of Paramahansa Yogananda, and head of Yogananda's organization in India,Yogoda Satsanga Society, while Yogananda was in the West, until early 1960's when YSS was re-organized. Swami Atmananda's Guru was Swami Kebalananda Giri, Sanskrit tutor of Yogananda and highly advanced Kriya Yoga disciple of Lahiri Mahasaya. After reading Autobiography of a Yogi in 1952, Swami Jnanananda walked to India and joined YSS, staying there until his Guru left the body in 1964. Afterwards he retired to Himalaya.I came to him in 1993, with recommendation from H.H. Swami Chidananda, President of The Divine Life Society. After spending many years with regular visits to Swami Jnanananda from my residence in Sivananda Ashram, Rishikesh, he directed me to also give Kriya Yoga Initiation to others.
