Paramahansa Yogananda
With engaging candor, eloquence, and wit, Paramahansa Yogananda narrates 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. Autobiography of a Yogi is at once a delightful account of an exceptional life and a profound introduction to the ancient science of Yoga and its tradition of meditation. Clearly explaining the subtle but definite laws behind the natural events of everyday life as well as the extraordinary events considered miraculous, the author reveals the scientific foundation underlying the great religious paths of both East and West. His absorbing life story thus becomes the background for a penetrating and unforgettable look at the ultimate mysteries of human existence.

Swami Chetananda
Provides an overview of Trika Yoga, a tantric system whose fundamental assertion is that our entire existence is a manifestation of the boundless energy of consciousness. Stated simply, Trika Yoga is the yoga that explores kundalini. Although this may sound very esoteric, its presentation is not. Swami Chetananda is an American, the spiritual heir of the well-known American yoga master Swami Rudrananda or Rudi. His explanations are couched in the language of the West and his analogies are more likely to feature basketball’s Larry Bird than the gods and goddesses of Indian myth. As such it provides a wonderfully accessible look at some of the fundamental aspects of yoga - the chakras, prana, kundalini, meditation and mantra - as well as helpful practical exercises However, possibly the most valuable explorations of this book are those that look at the human condition. In chapters titled "We Are Not What We Think We Are," "The Cure For The Pain Is In The Pain," and "Allowing The Creative Energy To Flow," Swami Chetananda looks at the beliefs, fears and actions that prevent us from realising the contentment of being who we really are.
