-
Stories of miracles and mystical experiences—levitation, bilocation, spontaneous healings—emphasizing the depth of yogic possibilities.

His founding of the Yogoda Satsanga Society in India (1917), and the Self‑Realization Fellowship in the U.S. (1920), through which he popularized Kriya Yoga and Eastern spirituality in the West .

About the Author
Born Mukunda Lal Ghosh in Gorakhpur, Yogananda was an Indian yogi, spiritual teacher, and pioneer in bringing yoga and meditation to the West. Initiated under the name Yogananda by his guru Sri Yukteswar in 1915, he was later honored with the title Paramahansa (“supreme swan”) in 1935.
He founded the Yogoda Satsanga Society of India in 1917 and Self‑Realization Fellowship in the U.S. in 1920—organizations that continue to spread his teachings . Autobiography of a Yogi has sold millions of copies, has been translated into 45+ languages, and in 1999 was named one of the 100 Most Important Spiritual Books of the 20th Century.
Yogananda’s influence is far-reaching—affecting spiritual seekers, public figures like Steve Jobs, George Harrison, and Virat Kohli—and inspiring countless individuals through his blend of spiritual insight and practical wisdom
