The present work is well portrayed in the author's own words.
"In 2011 I discovered Kriya Yoga, the science of Divine Self-realization of Mahavatar Babaji's lineage, through the esteemed guru Paramahansa Yogananda. In 2012 I did my initiation in Florida, USA, at the Institute Kriya Yoga, founded by another luminary of the same lineage, Hariharananda. From then on I underwent an incredible transformation, experiencing life in its divine essence, provided by regular Kriya practice. These perceptions, which opened me to a new dimension, also filled me with an ecstatic love, which made me overflow with the poems printed in this work.
The photographs depict the beauty, harmony and perfection of nature, pointing to attributes of the Creator. It was in this spirit that I captured them. Under each of the photographs, I have annexed the sentences of Paramahansa Yogananda, all of which are of deep spiritual significance and extracted from his published works by the Self-Realization Fellowship. This gives each of the images the support of yogic wisdom, for God is this: Beauty, Harmony, Perfection and Wisdom.
Two sides of the same coin: Self and existence, God perceived and God lived, Spirit and nature, poetry and photography."
