Hailed as “the father of Yoga in the West,” Paramahansa
Yogananda – author of the bestselling classic “Autobiography of
a Yogi” – is regarded as one of the great spiritual figures of
our time. Born in northern India on January 5, 1893, he devoted
his life to helping people of all races and creeds to realize
and express more fully in their lives the true beauty,
nobility, and divinity of the human spirit. After graduating
from Calcutta University in 1915, Yogananda took formal vows as
a monk of India’s venerable monastic Swami Order. Two years
later, he began his life’s work with the founding of a
how-to-live school since grown to twenty-one educational
institutions throughout India where traditional academic
subjects were offered together with yoga training and
instruction in spiritual ideals. In 1920, he was invited to
serve as India’s delegate to an International Congress of
Religious Liberals in Boston. His address to the Congress and
subsequent lectures on the East Coast were enthusiastically
received, and in 1924 he embarked on a cross-continental
speaking tour. Over the next three decades, Paramahansa
Yogananda contributed in far-reaching ways to a greater
awareness and appreciation in the West of the spiritual wisdom
of the East. In Los Angeles, he established an international
headquarters for Self-Realization Fellowship, the nonsectarian
religious society he had founded in 1920. Through his writings,
extensive lecture tours, and the creation of Self-Realization
Fellowship temples and meditation centers, he introduced
hundreds of thousands of truth-seekers to the ancient science
and philosophy of Yoga and its universally applicable methods
of meditation. Today, the spiritual and humanitarian work begun
by Paramahansa Yogananda continues under the direction of Sri
Daya Mata, one of his earliest and closest disciples and
president of Self-Realization Fellowship/Yogoda Satsanga
Society of India since 1955. In addition to publishing his
writings, lectures and informal talks (including a
comprehensive series of Self-Realization Fellowship Lessons for
home study), the society also oversees temples, retreats, and
centers around the world.
