Autobiography of a Yogi is at once a beautifully written account of an exceptional life and a profound introduction to the ancient science of Yoga and its time-honored tradition of meditation. Profoundly inspiring, it is at the same time vastly entertaining, warmly humorous and filled with extraordinary personages. With engaging candor, eloquence, and wit, Paramahansa Yogananda tells the inspiring chronicle of his life: the experiences of his remarkable childhood, encounters with many saints and sages during his youthful search throughout India for an illumined teacher, ten years of training in the hermitage of a revered yoga master, and the thirty years that he lived and taught in America. Also recorded here are his meetings with Mahatma Gandhi, Rabindranath Tagore, Luther Burbank, the Catholic stigmatist Therese Neumann, and other celebrated spiritual personalities of East and West. The author clearly explains the subtle but definite laws behind both the ordinary events of everyday life and the extraordinary events commonly termed miracles. His absorbing life story becomes the background for a penetrating and unforgettable look at the ultimate mysteries of human existence. Selected as "One of the 100 Best Spiritual Books of the Twentieth Century", Autobiography of a Yogi has been translated into more than 30 languages, and is regarded worldwide as a classic of religious literature. Several million copies have been sold, and it continues to appear on best-seller lists after more than sixty consecutive years in print. Self-Realization Fellowship's editions, and none others, include extensive material added by the author after the first edition was published, including a final chapter on the closing years of his life.
The original text of Yogananda's classic introduction to Eastern mysticism.
An artifact of a true master with otherworldly experience.
After stumbling upon this book I soon realized it was by no accident. Circumstances in my life had led me to seek God about how to deal with them, as I had done for the last 36 years. This time God's response was different. He was determined to draw me closer to him than ever before, and to change my way of seeing and dealing with him and my life concerns and life in general. He wanted me to know his loving ways towards me and all his creation, his sweet expressions of himself all around. The encounter and reading of this book is a small but critical part of this leg of my spiritual journey. And if you're seeking a closeness with God, wanting to hear his voice and learn from him, this book will give you insight and direction. My spiritual expression through my Judaic-Christian points of view have not been challenged by this book. Instead, I've found a deeper understanding and an appreciation for the foundational aspects of my religion. Read it and be blessed.
Anyone who is on a spiritual path, must read this book! IT is life changing

The making of autobiography of a yogi.
The writing of the work had been prophesied long ago. One of the seminal figures in the renaissance of yoga in modern times, the revered nineteenth-century master Sri Sri Lahiri Mahasaya , had foretold: “About fifty years after my passing, an account of my life will be written because of a deep interest in yoga that will arise in the West. The message of yoga will encircle the globe. It will aid in establishing the brotherhood of man: a unity based on humanity’s direct perception of the One Father.”
Many years later, Lahiri Mahasaya’s exalted disciple Swami Sri Sri Yukteswar related this prophecy to Sri Sri Yogananda.
In the book’s final chapter, Paramahansa Yogananda writes:
“God is Love; His plan for creation can be rooted only in love. Does not that simple thought, rather than erudite reasonings, offer solace to the human heart? Every saint who has penetrated to the core of Reality has testified that a divine universal plan exists and that it is beautiful and full of joy.”
It is our hope that you will find your own soul opening to a deeper faith in the transcendent Truth of India’s sages. And that faith sustains you through trials, and in the pursuit of true happiness and fulfilment.

Baseball slugger Aaron Judge hit an American League-record 62 home runs for the New York Yankees in 2022.

One of the largest men ever to play Major League Baseball, Aaron James Judge showcased his jaw-dropping power by hitting a rookie record 52 home runs for the New York Yankees in 2017. Following a few injury-plagued seasons, he riveted the sports world by smashing an American League-record 62 home runs in 2022. The superstar athlete also devotes time to helping children through his ALL RISE Foundation.
Judge is listed at 6'7" and 282 pounds, making him one of the largest players in Major League Baseball history.
Judge was born on April 26, 1992, in Linden, California.
Judge was adopted by schoolteachers Wayne and Patty Judge the day after he was born. His biological parents and ethnic background are publicly unknown, though he is described as being "biracial." Wayne and Patty also have an adopted older son, John.
Raised in a tiny northern California town previously known for its annual cherry festival, Judge has always stood out for his exceptional size.
The combination of premier physical gifts and a strong work ethic helped Judge become a three-sport star at Linden High School. During his senior year, he set school records with 17 touchdowns and 969 receiving yards for the football team; averaged 18 points and 12 rebounds per game in basketball; and produced a .500 batting average to go with a 0.88 ERA for the Mother Lode League-champion baseball team. Away from the playing fields, he served on the student council for two years and volunteered at his local church.
By the end of high school, Judge rebuffed opportunities to play football for Stanford University, UCLA and Notre Dame in order to focus on baseball. And while he was picked in the 31st round of the 2010 Major League Baseball draft by the Oakland Athletics, he elected to continue his education and amateur development at California State University, Fresno.
Judge performed well in his first two seasons for the Fresno State Bulldogs, earning selection to the All-Western Athletic Conference Team both times. However, his massive in-game power had yet to materialize, as he hit just six home runs over that time.
Things began to change after Judge’s sophomore year when he dazzled the competition with his gargantuan hits in the summer Cape Cod League, which brought together the nation’s top collegiate players. That year, he also won the TD Ameritrade College Baseball Home Run Derby.
Back at Fresno State , Judge earned all-conference honors for the third straight season after posting an impressive .461 on-base percentage with team highs in home runs (12), doubles (15) and RBIs (36). Afterward, he was the 32nd overall pick of the 2013 draft selected by the New York Yankees, who sealed the deal with a $1.8 million signing bonus.
Held out of the remainder of the 2013 season because of a quadriceps injury, Judge hit well in the lower levels of the Yankees organization the following year. His steady progression led to an appearance in the 2015 All-Star Futures Game, and by the close of the season, he was with the organization's top minor league team, the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders.
After batting .270 with 19 home runs in 93 games for the RailRiders in 2016, Judge was summoned to join the Yankees in the Bronx that August.
Wearing the unusually large jersey number 99 , Judge kicked off his Major League career in impressive fashion by homering in his first two games for the Yankees. However, opposing pitchers soon figured out his weaknesses, and Judge's batting average fell to .179 by the time an oblique injury ended his 2016 season in September.
Judge didn’t play his first full MLB season until 2017, when he came roaring back with 10 early home runs to earn the American League Rookie of the Month Award for April. By May, after fans began arriving at games in judges' robes and wigs, the team erected the " Judge's Chambers " in Yankee Stadium behind the superstar's customary position in right field.
Popular well beyond New York City, Judge accumulated the most All-Star votes of any American League player after an outstanding first half season. He seized the moment by winning the Home Run Derby against several other top sluggers.
After seeing the strikeouts pile up during a rough August, Judge rebounded to smash Mark McGwire's rookie record of 49 home runs in late September. He finished the year with a league-leading 52 home runs, 128 runs and 127 walks, numbers that resulted in a unanimous AL Rookie of the Year selection and a second-place showing for the Most Valuable Player Award.
After blasting 25 home runs in the first half of 2018 to earn his second straight All-Star berth, Judge hit a home run off Washington Nationals ace Max Scherzer in the midsummer showcase. However, he sustained a fractured wrist after getting hit by a pitch in late July, knocking him out of action until the final weeks of the season.
A left oblique strain limited the slugger to just 102 games in 2019, although he still hit 27 home runs and earned a Wilson Defensive Player of the Year Award for his strong defense in right field. The following year, he hit seven home runs in his first 10 games after MLB's COVID-delayed start to the season, only to be derailed by a strained calf that twice forced him to the injured list.
Judge finally turned the page in 2021 by remaining healthy, save for a midseason bout of COVID. A slight dip in his power numbers was offset by a decrease in strikeouts and his improved contact skills, or his ability to make contact with the ball at bat. This was highlighted by the game-winning single that propelled the Yankees into the playoffs on the final day of the regular season. Overall, Judge hit a then-career best .287 in 2021, along with 39 home runs, resulting in his second Silver Slugger Award and a fourth-place finish in the MVP voting.
Entering the final year of his rookie contract, Judge made headlines in April 2022 by rejecting a seven-year, $213.5 million contract extension from the Yankees—an offer that fell well below the exorbitant salaries paid to fellow superstars like Mike Trout and Mookie Betts.
It appeared to be a wise bet as the slugger started launching home runs at a rate rarely seen in the game's history. He slammed 12 homers in May, 11 in June and another 13 in July, becoming the runaway winner in the All-Star voting with almost 400,000 votes more than runner-up Mike Trout. And while the Yankees struggled during the midsummer months, Judge nearly single-handedly kept them in first place with his stellar defense at center field and his lofty .311 batting average .
Judge matched the legendary Babe Ruth with his 60th home run on September 20 before tying Roger Maris' 61-year-old American League record with homer No. 61 on September 28. Six days later, he finally had the AL record to himself ( Barry Bonds holds the MLB record with 73 home runs) by swatting a leadoff blast in the Yankees' penultimate game of the regular season.
Along with his 62 home runs, Judge fell just short of the batting title with his .311 average, tied for the Major League lead with 131 RBIs, and led all players in runs (133), on-base percentage (.425) and slugging percentage, the rate of total bases per at-bat (.686), in his memorable 2022 season.
While Judge keeps a close lid on his private life despite playing in the New York City spotlight, the media eventually got wind of his relationship with high school sweetheart Samantha Bracksieck . After falling out of touch for a few years, the two reportedly revived their romance in 2019, before marrying in Hawaii in December 2021.
In 2018, Judge launched the ALL RISE Foundation to encourage children to "become responsible citizens." Among its numerous initiatives, the foundation sponsors a leadership development program for students, awards grants to select communities and hosts a series of baseball camps.
