Paramahansa Yogananda links
- The Self Realization Fellowship
- The Self Realization Fellowship was founded by Paramahansa Yogananda.
- Ananda
- A worldwide movement based on the teachings of Paramhansa Yogananda and founded by Swami Kriyananda, a disciple of Yogananda.
Mantra:
Shanti means peace.
Sant Mat
...Sant Mat means "Spiritual Teachings."
My internet research shows that there's more than one guru claiming this path as lineage.
Baba Gurinder Singh of Radha Soami Satsang Beas is one of them, and Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj of The Science of Spirituality is another.
The split between the two organizations happened after the passing of The Great Master, Baba Sawan Singh. There seem to be other gurus claiming this lineage but I haven't found them online yet.
The Path of the Masters
The Path of the Masters - The Science of Surat Shabd Yoga (The Yoga of the Audible Life Stream)
Amazon Price: (as of 07/09/2009)
Radha Soami links
- The Science of Spirituality
- Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj's organization. You can download videos, introductory texts, and more. Many of the videos are in the Hindi language but there are some available in English. Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj was educated as a scientist in the USA and worked for twenty years prior to becoming a guru. His master was Kirpal Singh.
- Radha Soami Satsang Beas
- Baba Gurinder Singh's organization has distribution rights for "The Path of the Master" and many other books. His master was Maharaj Charan Singh. Radha means soul, and Soami means Lord... so the term "Radha Soami" means "Lord of the Soul".

Are real gurus found on YouTube?
...that is the question!
According to the Wikipedia page on gurus, a guru "is a person who is regarded as having great knowledge, wisdom and authority in a certain area, and who uses it to guide others." I believe all these people qualify as gurus.
Here you can listen to what Dattatreya SivaBaba has to say about YouTube:
Prophecy on YouTube: How to take advantage of YouTube
Datta gives a prophecy on the YouTube. It is going to dominate industry particularly film and music and how can you take advantage of YouTube.

Swami Chidvilasananda
...one of many female gurus.
She seems to be concerned with having some privacy... and I remember long ago when the Internet first got popular she wasn't encouraging her followers to use it. Now, however, she's got a website for Siddha Yoga. You can find her photograph there.
- Siddha Yoga
- Siddha Yoga is a path of meditation with the goal of self realization.
A site that will help you find a guru online
- Gurus Feet
- This is an excellent social networking site for followers of all gurus, and for people who are seeking information about gurus online.
You can listen to gurus on internet radio
- Spiritual Radio Show - The Gateway to Eternity , Internet Radio for spiritual wisdom and awakening with spiritual music
- The "The Gateway to Eternity" show is a channel for the spiritual teachers to provide their wisdom, teachings and blessings. The show also has guests who are working for the upliftment of humanity.
My decision about which guru to follow...
...not a real cop out but something similar.
I'm serious about creating my own spiritual path, but my life has never been conducive to taking long journeys to see gurus, or spending hundreds of dollars on the right to be included in special instructional meetings wherein I could be blessed with the touch of a living guru, or anything else costing money. Besides having financial limitations I had five children to raise, and didn't have the means to leave them with someone else while I pursued my spiritual enlightenment.Nevertheless, I have pursued spirituality in various forms all my adult life, and now feel blessed by a dream about Paramahansa Yogananda. I am reading his autobiography now, and learning all I can from the gurus online. I recently wrote a blog article that expresses my feelings even more: Prayer for Manifesting Peace by Paramahansa Yogananda.
I know there are many other gurus online, but I can't name them all at one time. I'll add to this page when I learn more. You're welcome to contact me about your guru if you want to recommend one. Just leave a message below in my guestbook.
