The real life of Yogananda : the story of the yogi who became the first modern guru
Goldberg, Philip, 1944-2018
Books, Manuscripts
Ninety-seven years after his arrival in the United States, and sixty-five years after his death, Paramahansa Yogananda remains the best known and most beloved of all the Indian spiritual teachers who came to the West. His influence is unsurpassed, because of the durability of his teachings and the institutions he created or inspired (more than 600 centres worldwide), and mainly because of his landmark memoir, Autobiography of a Yogi. That text has sold millions of copies since its publication in 1946, but there are huge gaps in the story it tells. With this book, readers will have a complete and compelling account of Yogananda's remarkable life, in all its detail, nuance, and complex humanity.
