The experiences of Yogananda are well worth reading; from his boyhood - interacting with his family - to his meeting his spiritual teacher, a man named Yuketswar. (The names are often difficult at first). Yogananda writes well and before you know it, you're at the end, wishing there were more. There are also lots of photographs inserted at the right spots, and they make the reading experience more vivid and enjoyable. I used to read this book every year, along with various books of Thomas Merton. Both were deeply spiritual, but also jovial, men.
I have bought several ov these books here and plan on purchasing more, whether from this source or others. It is an enlightening autobiography that inspires spirituality to all creeds and beliefs. I give Them to people I feel need it, pretty much all My Family and Friends.

I'd seen this book around for 40 years but I guess I wasn't ready for it until recently. His autobiography reads like a novel but it's really about one getting closer to God or Spirit or whatever you wish to call It. No self proclaiming or Dogma, just encouragement and guidance. If you have not drunk the Kool-Aid of churchianity, this book could change your life.
