The Biography of Paramahansa Yogananda (Yogi)

De: Jasmine Sood

Narrado por: Russell Newton

Yogananda was born in Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh, India, to a devout family. According to his younger brother, Sananda, from his earliest years young Mukunda's awareness and experience of the spiritual was far beyond the ordinary. In his youth he sought out many of India's Hindu sages and saints, hoping to find an illuminated teacher to guide him in his spiritual quest. In 1910 Yogananda's seeking after various saints mostly ended when, at the age of 17, he met his guru, Swami Yukteswar Giri. He describes his first meeting with Yukteswar as a rekindling of a relationship that had lasted for many lifetimes.

Not the autobiography

This story wasn’t the book I thought I ordered. I thought it was odd because a friend had highly recommended it and it wasn’t very interesting. It was a mere recounting of places and people. Not very interesting to me. Maybe this book would be more interesting to someone who is already a follower and know more about him. I want to read the autobiography.
