Talks by Nayaswami Kriyananda
If you want to be a true nayaswami, get rid of the very capacity to have desires, emotional ups and downs, and attachments — the sense of “I.”

If we haven't yet achieved Samadhi, we should strive to live as if we had.
—Nayaswami Jyotish
We are gathered today on a very sacred occasion. The vows we are taking are between us, individually, and God. Let us be fierce and determined in our divine resolution to live for God alone.
—Nayaswami Jyotish
