Publisher's Synopsis
Millions of spiritual seekers consider Paramhansa Yogananda's Autobiography of a Yogi their Gita or Bible of self-realization―a journey to discover our body, mind and soul's oneness with God's omnipresence. Oswald Pereira in this book captures both the essence of the autobiography and Yogananda's core teachings. The author analyses the autobiography in the first part of the book, while in the second part, he evaluates Yogananda's philosophy of universalism, unity and oneness of people and of religions and discusses the parallelisms between Krishna and Christ's teachings, Kriya Yoga's scientific technique of God-contact, and various other aspects of God. He compares Sri Ramakrishna and Swami Vivekananda's philosophy of universalism with that of Yogananda. Yogananda's metaphysical gyan helps us to renew God-contact and rediscover the joy within.
