Description

When Autobiography of a Yogi first appeared in 1946, it was acclaimed as a landmark work in its field. The New York Times hailed it as "a rare account". Newsweek pronounced it "fascinating". The San Francisco Chronicle declared, "Yogananda presents a convincing case for yoga, and those who 'came to scoff' may remain 'to pray." Today it is still one of the most widely read and respected books ever published on the wisdom of the East.

This audio edition, featuring Academy Award winner Ben Kingsley's masterful narration, contains the complete text of Paramahansa Yogananda's life story, an absorbing account of a singular search for Truth. Yogananda describes his experiences with modern-day saints and illuminated masters of India, and presents a definitive introduction to the whole science and philosophy of Yoga.

One of the best books of all time

Yes this is one of the best books of all time. Not because it was so well written by yogaNanda and not because I love Yoga, but because it has a gripping tale which is a remarkably true one, about an incredible life of an incredible soul.

This hypnotic tale combined mysticism with astrology and Yoga teachings and well it is very serious in parts it also has lots of comedic parts and also basically tells how the universe works through the teachings of many of Yoga’s masters.

It may answer many of your questions to the mysteries of life and the universe. It did mine and now I can’t wait to read his other books as well.

I was so sorry when it was over as I don’t know if he could match the magic in his other books but I’m sure I will learn much.

Some of the material goes into so much detail that I am going to go over the paperback version as well because it is too difficult to entirely assimilate when somebody is reading it quickly as such material is very deep.

That is more in the latter part of the book when his guru, after he has passed from this plane, teaches him the mysteries of the universe. Earlier when he was alive the guru teaches him about astrology and I will need to go over that in the paper back as well but otherwise with Ben Kingsley The narrator it was a pleasure listening to this book daily and I couldn’t stop until it was done.

Years ago I started the paper back and it was so long I couldn’t finish it even though it was great so this audiobook was a godsend and in 10 days while listening to it driving an hour a day I was done!

And now that I have it to keep I will probably listen to it once a year at least!

Sometimes we are asked if we could choose one famous person we would like to meet in our lifetime and sit down and have a conversation with them he wouldn’t be.

Mine would probably be yogaNanda

A Must Read for Everyone

I've read this book years ago but was so delighted to be able to sit back, relax and allow the beautiful voice of Ben Kingsley to transport me to destinations in days of yore. I will never tire of this story and learning about the incredible life of Paramahansa Yogananda.

fairy tales mixed with contradictory theology

as a person who accidentally entered enlightenment path (i didnt meet any magical guru), I find this book of a very little value. This book is aimed at people who never exeperienced a state of samadhi and feeling desperate to get a taste of it. The author put lots of smoke in this book. Here is the reality. Samadhi gives you piece and focus. Also because it is triggered by shakti rising, it makes you sexually attractive and driven to procreate life. Finally, you will see the god if yo look deep intobyorself contradictory to what the author stated.

Wonderful

I’m sad that I never knew of this book until now. I will likely come back to it many times. Also, can Ben Kingsley just narrate all books from now on?

Inspiring

I liked the journey in which swami Yogananda explores himself and faith in energy. Stories of great people in history like Mahatama Gandhi and Guru Rabindranath Tagore who followed the spiritual path in same but different way are inspiring.
