Easy Journey to Other Planets

Easy Journey to Other Planets
By His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami

It is said that the perfect yogi can relinquish his body at death and journey, at the speed of mind, to antimaterial planets far beyond the limits of the material universe. Encompassing the systems of sankhya, astanga and bhakti, this absorbing publication treats the science of yoga, particularly in its application to out-of-body travel.

Easy Journey to Other Planets was one of the earliest small books available at the onset of The Hare Krishna Movement.  The following is a link for a free download of  the original edition that Srila Prabhupada printed in India before he ever came to the USA.  Just click on link at bottom of post.

From the Preface of the book:

A living being, especially civilized man, has a natural desire to live forever in happiness. This is quite natural because, in his original state, the living being is both eternal and joyful. However, in the present conditioned state of life, he is engaged in a struggle against recurring birth and death. Therefore he has attained neither happiness nor immortality.

The latest desire man has developed is the desire to travel to other planets. This is also quite natural, because he has the constitutional right to go to any part of the material or spiritual skies. Such travel is very tempting and exciting because these skies are full of unlimited globes of varying qualities, and they are occupied by all types of living entities. The desire to travel there can be fulfilled by the process of yoga, which serves as a means by which one can transfer himself to whatever planet he likes–possibly to planets where life is not only eternal and blissful, but where there are multiple varieties of enjoyable energies. Anyone who can attain the freedom of the spiritual planets need never return to this miserable land of birth, old age, disease and death.

One can attain this stage of perfection very easily by his individual effort. He can simply follow, in his own home, the prescribed method of bhakti-yoga. This method, under proper guidance, is simple and enjoyable. An attempt is made herein to give information to the people in general, and to philosophers and religionists in particular, as to how one can transfer oneself to other planets by this process of bhakti-yoga-the highest of all yogic processes.

    One of my most favorite books. Back in 2000 I received a copy in the mail from Yasodanandan prabhu. It was in the same shape as the one posted. Very poor quality. I asked a very dear old friend of mine if he could replicate the book in it’s original exact form on his computer. He said he would try. Some few weeks later he have me a CD with the complete original book on it that looked EXACTLY like the original. I offered him a good some of money for his efforts and he refused. On the second offer he accepted. I sent the CD to Gupta at KBI and he was not only grateful he was astonished. I received a large free case of the books in the mail when they came out and distributed them all.. It is now out of print. I asked Krsna Path why they didn’t post a complete clean new copy and of course I got no answer. Much of that type of non communication nonsense going on these days.

    I have since located an original perfect copy from that case I received all those years ago. I am now going to have it professionally scanned and put into a digital file for distribution. Then you may print your own. If you want a copy then you will have to contact this web site to start with. I will let them know when it is done and hopefully they will inform you all.
