Anyone who has read and loved Autobiography of a Yogi will be delighted to find this treasure of personal experiences and heartfelt remembrances of Paramhansa Yogananda by three of his direct disciples. Stories from Yogananda?s family members, Hare Krishna Ghosh and Meera Ghosh, who became disciples as teenagers, take the reader on pilgrimage to India to the sacred places and miraculous moments shared with this great yogi. The stories of Margaret Bowen Deitz transport one to Yogananda?s ashram in California and his time living with devotees in America. These accounts, whether humorous or miraculous, casual or divine, bring to life the experience of being in Yogananda?s presence. They give insight into the profound love with which he guided each individual. Yogananda was not only one of the greatest yoga masters of our time, but he was also an avatar?an incarnation of the divine. First-hand experiences from close disciples are a true gift that can help us tune into his vast nature. At the same time these delightful stories will touch your heart and uplift your spirit. \n
1893-1952 Hailed as the father of Yoga in the West,? Paramahansa Yogananda is regarded as one of the great spiritual figures of our time.

Through his best-selling classic, Autobiography of a Yogi, and his numerous other books, he has introduced millions throughout the world to the spiritual principles of yoga meditation and the universal truths underlying all world religions.
