Answer

Dear Rajesh,

There are many ways to start a spiritual quest and many types of spiritual quests. The type of quest will help to determine the way to start. If you are meaning, how do I find God?, my way was to find a teacher that taught me meditation. Meditation means to me finding my inner Self, my soul, which is that part of God that we all have. This is why I’ve been drawn to finding Self-realization and drawn to Swami Kriyananda, a direct disciple of Paramhansa Yogananda. Yogananda as you know wrote, Autobiography of a Yogi, a great spiritual classic. If you have not read it and want to start on a spiritual quest, do start there.

Joy to you, Seva
