"Man is a soul, and has a body. When he properly places his sense of identity, he leaves behind all compulsive patterns. So long as he remains confused in his ordinary state of spiritual amnesia, he will know the subtle fetters of environmental law. --AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A YOGI by Paramahansa Yogananda, Chapter 16 |

| In Hindu mythology, Brahma (God the Creator) rides upon a swan -- the symbol of spiritual discrimination. The Indian ecclesiastic title of "Paramahansa" means "highest swan" and indicates the greatest level of self-mastery possible. Only very rarely is the mantle bestowed by a true God-realized guru to a qualified disciple, one who has similarly attained this ultimate grace of soul freedom. | |||||||||||||||||||
