PREFACE
By W. Y. EVANS-WENTZ, M.A., D.Litt., D.Sc.
Jesus College, Oxford; Author of
THE TIBETAN BOOK OF THE DEAD,
TIBET'S GREAT YOGI MILAREPA,
TIBETAN YOGA AND SECRET DOCTRINES, etc.
The value of Yogananda's AUTOBIOGRAPHYis greatly enhanced by the
fact that it is one of the few books in English about the wise men
of India which has been written, not by a journalist or foreigner,
but by one of their own race and training--in short, a book ABOUT
yogis BY a yogi. As an eyewitness recountal of the extraordinary
lives and powers of modern Hindu saints, the book has importance
both timely and timeless. To its illustrious author, whom I have
had the pleasure of knowing both in India and America, may every
reader render due appreciation and gratitude. His unusual life-document
is certainly one of the most revealing of the depths of the Hindu
mind and heart, and of the spiritual wealth of India, ever to be
published in the West.
It has been my privilege to have met one of the sages whose
life-history is herein narrated-Sri Yukteswar Giri.
