This was amazing! Donna de Lory

Congratulations. Vinnie Marino

Such a film is already an indication of the depth of the change that has occurred since those early years, dated from the late 1940s.

The film was terrific – I loved getting to see and hear from so many illustrious yoga teachers.  Terry S.

Last night was a grand event! Larry Payne

Great event last night! Renee

Thank you so much for making that film.  I felt quite uplifted and inspired by the film and the Q&A afterwards.  I drove home filled with joy. Lisa L.

Highly, highly recommend it. Very inspiring. Yogamint

What a wonderful film and evening that was. Our whole group came away very inspired by what we experienced. Thanks so much for what you've done. Swami L.

The movie premiere was spent with such good company, was truly enjoyable and very inspirational.  Thank you for making such a great documentary film. Amal D.

As the (apparently) old man of yoga in Los Angeles I would like to pay my sincere compliments to you all for everything I observed at the event last evening in Santa Monica. As most of you know, I began teaching in Los Angeles over sixty years ago on behalf of my Guru, Paramhansa Yogananda. I was thrilled, last evening, to see how greatly the consciousness in this city ("the Benares of America," as Master called it) has matured. The audience response showed a thrilling increase of appreciation for everything. The teachers were respectful of one another and obviously competent, and also sincere, in their desire to help others rather than merely to be teachers.
Johannes, that such a film could even be made was already an indication of the depth of the change that has occurred since those early years, dated from the late 1940s.

I was deeply moved, perhaps most especially by the evolution from those "this will fill your hips, girls" days.

Thank you for letting me participate in this event, I felt that I, too, learned from it. Why add that I would still like to see more devotion in the yoga movement? Things are certainly moving in that direction. I am so glad, also, that I was able to develop the system that I have called "Ananda Yoga." People are becoming wholesomely aware of the interactive influence which exists between body and mind. Indeed, this awareness seems to be developing more strongly here in Los Angeles, even, than in India.

With love and blessings,

Swami Kriyananda
