The Second Coming of Christ is a posthumously published non-fiction book by the Indian yogi and guru Paramahansa Yogananda (1893–1952).[1] With commentary on passages from the four Gospels.[2] The full title of the two-volume work is The Second Coming of Christ — The Resurrection of the Christ Within You - A revelatory commentary on the original teachings of Jesus.

Plot

The book tells the story of Christ’s life in chronological order. His birth, his travels, his ministry, his parables, his death, and his resurrection.[3] And discusses a link between Kriya Yoga and the teachings of Jesus Christ.[2]

{{Quote|"to reveal the complete harmony and basic oneness of original Christianity as taught by Jesus Christ and original Yoga as taught (...) and to show that these principles of truth are the common scientific foundation of all true religions."[3]|Paramahansa Yogananda}}

Emergence

Yoganandas left India in 1920 for America and give his first speech at the Congress of Religious Liberals. He stayed here until his death in 1952. During this time he gave more than 150 talks [4] and wrote articles, many about the Christian Gospels. He also announced that he would be giving weekly classes in Boston that would consist a half-hour exposition of the Bhagavad Gita, a half-hour exposition of the Gospels, and a half-hour discourse demonstrating their fundamental unity. After establishing a magazine, he began publishing a series of articles on the Gita and another series on the Gospels, which latter even then he called The Second Coming of Christ. Then, during his last four years, he withdrew into seclusion to work on his writings. Yogananda wanted them collected and printed in a book, but found that a tremendous amount of editing was needed, so that was not done. When he died, he left an extensive body of work—public lectures and classes that had been recorded stenographically by Sri Daya Mata, along with three decades of his original writing. The editors, to whom he had conveyed his wishes for this vast volume of material, compiled and integrated it into The Second Coming of Christ.[5][6]

Editions

In 1979 the Amrita Foundation of Dallas Texas printed a three-volume set of the magazine articles that had been edited.[7]

2004 Self-Realization Fellowship published a two-volume edition of The Second Coming of Christ,[11] that had been greatly augmented by the addition of much material on the Gospels that had been gathered from many of the Master’s other talks and writings. It was compiled and also edited by Mrinalini Mata, the past President of SRF.[6][8][9]
