I inadvertantly bought this audiobook, believing it to be the much lauded version narrated by Ben Kingsley. IT IS NOT – don’t get the abridged version if you are buying based on the reviews provided here. There’s alot missing from this version – and it does not flow like Yoganandas original. Also, the quality is not as excellent as the $79.00 version. After buying the “real” Ben Kingsley narrated version, I can assure you that it is worth the fee!

This book was highly recommended by a friend as something that would change my life. I expected something else. The leader lost me in the first chapters with his descriptions of people seeing and talking to gods, reading minds, predicting the future, levitating, teletransporting, appearing in two places at the same time, fighting tigers with their bare hands, amongst additional fantastic tales. Just a small bit too much for me, a long time atheist.
Additional people might have a kick out of it, not me.

This is one of the classics of spiritual literature. Because so many editing changes were made, many of them long after Yogananda’s passing, I would recommend the 1946 edition published by Crystal Clarity Publishers. It’s with the blue take in. You can also tell it’s the real thing because later editions even changed Yogananda’s name (and forged his signature in the frontispiece!). You can be sure this was done lacking Yogananda’s praise!
I establish this earlier edition to have more of the right poetic style of Yogananda, and none of the dogmatism that was interjected into later editions. His original Whispers from Eternity is also a spiritual classic.

I will have to go against the flow, here. So, some people can really perform “miracles” like talking and seeing gods, teletransporting themselves, materializing objects and even entire castles out of thin air, appearing in two places at once, bringing back people from death, fighting and taming wild tigers armed with only their kindness, levitating, predicting the future, healing wounds and fatal diseases with only their will, reading minds, etc, etc? Sorry, I don’t reflect so.
I am nearly finishing the book and if it were sold as a fiction piece I would give it more credit. But since it is the leader’s “biography” and all the fantastic events in it described as truth… sorry again, I just can’t.
As a philosophycal way of life it is still very appealing, though.

Paramahansa Yogananada made many vital changes since he wrote this older 1946 edition. He also added chapter 49 to conclude the whole book, and left detailed instructions and loyal, skilled editors to perfect the enhancements of this book. The perfect and up to date versions (with the orange take in by SRF publishers), will give the reader a fuller view of the masters whole teachings. Don’t miss reading the whole book.
