AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A YOGI - Paramahamsa Yogananda

In the year 2003, my guru, Adv. P.K. Vishnu Nampoothiry, gave me a copy of this book to read. The book is an introduction to the ancient science of Yoga and its time - honoured tradition of meditation.
It gives detailed accounts of the author’s childhood experiences, eternal quest for enlightenment and encounters with many saints and celebrated spiritual personalities of East and West. He gives astonishing first- hand descriptions of miracles he witnessed and explains the importance of 'Kriya Yoga',the path to self realization. This book answers most of our spiritual and existential questions and inspires one to be less materialistic and more focused on union with God.
If you are on the spiritual path, this book is a must read.

[It has been translated into 20 languages and selected as ‘One of the 100 best Spiritual books of the Twentieth Century’]
