About this book

The Master Said is an early collection of sayings, anecdotes and spiritual counsel by Paramhansa Yogananda, author of Autobiography of a Yogi. Originally issued shortly after his death, the book gathers teachings remembered and recorded by his disciples, with an emphasis on devotion, meditation, self-discipline and direct spiritual realization.

This copy is the second printing of the 1952 first edition, published by the Self-Realization Fellowship in 1953. It retains the scarce original illustrated dust jacket.
