| Description: |
In 1946, Paramahansa Yogananda (January 5, 1893–March 7, 1952), published his life story, Autobiography of a Yogi, which introduced many westerners to meditation and yoga.[1] It has since been translated into 25 languages, and the various editions published since its inception have sold over a million copies worldwide.[2]nnThe book describes Yogananda's search for a guru, and his encounters with leading spiritual figures such as Therese Neumann, the Hindu saint Sri Anandamoyi Ma, Mohandas Gandhi, Rabindranath Tagore, Nobel Prize-winning physicist Sir C. V. Raman, and noted American plant scientist Luther Burbank, to whom it is dedicated

rupa wrote 401 Days Ago (positive) 1Yogananda’s style is almost childlike, engaging, and gentle like his smile on the cover of the book. He draws from an array of sources like the Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, Indian mythology, the Bible, Paradise Lost and his own experiences. He recounts his stay in a hermitage under a certain Swami Dayananda who rebukes Yogananda’s inability to control hunger1 point -
scba wrote 401 Days Ago (neutral) 0The portions describing his tutelage under Sri Yukteshwar are the most interesting. Yogananda takes us through his own educaton, rewarding us handsomely in the process. Something that has stayed with me indelibly is an episode where a fly on Yogananda’s thigh irritates him. Instinctively, he raises his hand to swat it dead but stops realizing his vow of non-violence. Sri Yukteshwar tells him to proceed because, he says, Yogananda had already killed it in his mind.1 point -
amrita wrote 401 Days Ago (neutral) 0Autobiography of a Yogi is not merely a book but an experience written by perhaps the last of the renowned mystics of the previous century. If book sales is an indicator of popularity, it is one of the top-selling books of all time and has been translated into 18 languages around the world. If you want to read it as just another autobiography, it might show you more just a glimpse into another world that still exists.1 point -
debolina wrote 426 Days Ago (neutral) 0Everything you do should be done with peace. That is the best medicine for your body, mind, and soul. It is the most wonderful way to live. — Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda1 point -
debolina wrote 426 Days Ago (neutral) 0No matter what his present state, man can change for the better through self-control, discipline, and following proper diet and health laws. Why do you think you cannot change? Mental laziness is the secret cause of all weakness. — Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda1 point
