years ago when i was just in the beginning stages of studying snd practicing yoga, i encountered his autobiography and was captivated by his rendition of his experience of cosmic consciousness. at the time, it inspired me to continue on the path of self discovery. later i read works by two of his close students norman paulsen and swami kriyananda, that mirrored a lot of who yogananda was in his day to day life. it was in looking at his photograph that i found how a strikingly pure radiant light shone through his entity and spoke louder than anything written verbally.
