[.ca] Why God Permits Evil and How to Rise Above It (ISBN 0876124619)

Divine Will and the Choice of Love Peace and Forgiveness:
The deeply moving words of truth from Paramahansa Yogananda show us all how God endowed us with free will, so that we may come to learn, know, feel, practice, and act with love and peace. This little gem and treasure of a book is as great and as big as the cosmos with Divine truth, which will illuminate your mind, and speak to your soul. It teaches us to go within, and discover our own Divine God-Self within, where we CA N prevail in peace in our world, once we each choose to individually. It is then that the world will know peace collectively. HIGHLY Recommended to discover your own Divinity within. Deserves 10 Stars! Barbara Rose, author of, 'Individual Power' and 'If God Was Like Man'

A very thought-provoking, uplifting viewpoint:
How refreshing to hear a level-headed, non-dogmatic exposition on an eternally "hot" topic. This yogi makes a lot more sense to my heart than ninety-nine percent of the stuff I was brought up hearing.

A Beacon of Hope in the Dark:
I learned much from this book. It explained how to rise above any suffering I have experienced, and brought me a lot of hope contrary to how I was raised. This is a wonderful book of the few I recommend that will speak to your soul and teach you how to overcome adversity. An excellent read and highly beneficial for all. Most Highly Recommended!

To our dear friend the Satanist:
First, this is not a Christain book. Second, your parageim doesn't work because of free will. Satan chose to rebell( see I will set my throne, I will become greater then God, ect.)therefor he was not created evil, therefor God is not evil but good. Gee, I destroyed your argument in one sentence!

Comfort for my heart and head:
Compassion, loving the doer of evil, turning toward the light... It is wonderful that Yogananda shows how the tragedies of the world deserve our compassion - and also our dedication to renewing our own connection to the Light. He doesn't deny all the pain of living in a human, fallible world - but he offers a compassionate view of The Divine - and Its call to work our way out (and love our way out) of the pain of a material existence. The rational mind may balk when it sees no explanation for the suffering and evil that exists in The Creator's Universe. This little volume offers revolutionary insight - for more see Yogananda's Autobiography of a Yogi. Give Peace a chance. Give Love a chance. Find, in a genuine EXPERIENCE of God, the love that changes your whole world.
