Dear Mattia,

Joy to you! Anything you want to improve takes desire, focus and concentration.

Pray for the desire to improve your study habits, your focus and your concentration. Ask God to work through you while you study. And make the time you spend studying a special time for you to commune with the Divine. Offer your studying to God.

Yogananda's ideals for education

Mansi
India

Question

Has Paramhansa Yoganandaji written any book on education?

Nayaswami Pranaba

Ananda Village

Answer

Dear Mansi,

Although Yogananda did not specifically write a book on education, he put into manifestation many of his ideas regarding this important topic. One of his first endeavors in India was starting a school.

However, his disciple, Swami Kriyananda, brought together Yogananda’s ideas on education and presented them in the book, Education for Life. This is probably the best resource on this topic.
