A Top 100 Spiritual Book of the Twentieth Century

This audiobook is read by a direct disciple, Swami Kriyananda. It is read from the original 1946 first edition of the Autobiography of a Yogi written by Paramhansa Yogananda.

The Autobiography of a Yogi is one of the best-selling Eastern philosophy titles of all-time, with millions of copies published. Yogananda's masterpiece has been named one of the greatest and most influential books of the twentieth century.

This highly prized verbatim reprinting of the original 1946 edition is (unlike other publishers' editions) free from textual changes made after Yogananda's death.

Yogananda was the first yoga master of India whose mission brought him to live and teach in the West. His firsthand account of his life experiences in India includes childhood revelations, stories of his visits to saints and masters in India, and long-secret teachings of yoga and Self-realization that he first made available to the Western reader.
