About:
Paramahansa Yogananda (1893 –1952) was an Indian monk, yogi and guru who introduced millions to the teachings of meditation and Kriya Yoga through his organization Self-Realization Fellowship (SRF) / Yogoda Satsanga Society (YSS) of India.
Yogananda was the first major Indian Yoga teacher to settle in America. His long-standing influence in the American yoga movement, and especially the yoga culture of Los Angeles, led him to be considered by yoga experts as the "Father of Yoga in the West."
Autobiography of a Yogi: In 1946, Yogananda published his life story, Autobiography of a Yogi. It is regarded as one of the Most Important Spiritual Books of the 20th Century. The Book has been an inspiration for many people including George Harrison, Ravi Shankar and Steve Jobs.
