Paramhansa Yogananda: A Biography
Sintesi dell'editore
Paramhansa Yogananda’s classic Autobiography of a Yogi was more about the saints Yogananda met than about himself - in spite of the fact that Yogananda was much greater than many he described. Now, one of Yogananda’s few remaining direct disciples, Swami Kriyananda, author of award winning book The New Path, tells the untold story of this great spiritual master and world teacher: his teenage miracles, his challenges in coming to America, his national lecture campaigns, his struggles to fulfill his world-changing mission amid incomprehension and painful betrayals, and his ultimate triumphant achievement.
Kriyananda’s subtle grasp of his great guru’s inner nature reveals Yogananda’s many-sided and extraordinary greatness. Includes many never-before-published anecdotes.

La vita di un vero Avatar
è commovente ascoltare la vita di un Maestro Spirituale autorealizzato letta da un suo discepolo diretto che grazie a questo incontro ha trasformato la sua vita e ci ha mostrato praticamente come raggiungere l'autorealizzazione in questa vita. Grazie Swami, grazie Ananda Edizioni e grazie Nandini

Kriyananda's Memoirs
If you could sum up Paramhansa Yogananda: A Biography in three words, what would they be?
Almost good,but
What was one of the most memorable moments of Paramhansa Yogananda: A Biography?
Yogananda's early years before he was a teaching master show him to be extraordinary in a way that the Autobiography does not. He could be humorous as well as humble. And yes, there were 'miracles' I had not heard about.
How could the performance have been better?
Kriyananda's voice is scratchy (God bless him) and not pleasant to listen to. He should dictate it to someone else to read
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Definitely not. The information is good coming from a man who knew him personally, and is well worth hearing, so i did soldier through it, and would recommend doing so. A little at a time
Any additional comments?
Good listen

Life story and recollections
This is an overview of Paramhansa Yogananda's life and includes material which is not present in the Autobiography of a Yogi. Many stories and recollections here can be found in the author's other works such as The New Path; the beauty of this work is the context in which the author has tried to set the various events in the life of Paramhansa Yogananda. He also talks about their Spiritual path, Sanatan Dharm and Yogananda's universal teachings. the author is an old man and has read the book himself so the voice is not youthful however, the energy and sincerity which he brings in his voice cannot be substituted by a professional.

Good book, needs a different narrator
It is great to have a complementary Yogananda biography, and there are some lovely nuggets of wisdom in it also. The drawback is the narration, it is great to hear the book from the voice of the author; however, his health impedes him from properly delivering it...in this case, probably better to have someone else read it.
