I am a Roman Catholic and I maintain that there is much to learn from
Eastern ways. I firmly believe there is a healthy lesson to be learned
from meditation in saying our prayers. I do not particularly feel
comfortable evangelizing Christianity to Hindus as I believe Hinduism is
a sacred and holy religion unto itself. By, the way, can anyone here
point me to any web pages that refer to Yogananda?? I found Autobiography
Of A Yogi" extremely inspiring. Thank you in advance!
