Autobiography of a Yogi

One of the world’s most acclaimed spiritual classics.

2021 marked the 75th anniversary of Paramahansa Yogananda’s Autobiography of a Yogi.

As the life story of Paramahansa Yogananda — who is often referred to as the Father of Yoga in the West — this book has touched the hearts and minds of millions around the globe. Translated into over fifty languages, it has served as an ambassador for India’s ancient science of yoga, introducing countless readers to the methods for attaining God-realisation that are India’s unique and lasting contribution to world civilisation.

Hailed as a masterpiece from its first appearance in print in 1946, the book was honoured in 1999 as one of “100 Best Spiritual Books of the Century.” Today, this story of a life of unmistakable greatness continues its success in opening to the public a realm of liberating spiritual knowledge previously accessible only to a few.

‘Autobiography of a Yogi’ is an excellent introduction to the teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda.

It is available from bookstores, on-line or at our Sunday meetings as are numerous other SRF publications/DVDs/CDs.
