    About Paramahansa Yogananda

    Paramahansa Yogananda was an influential Indian yogi and guru who introduced millions of Westerners to meditation and Kriya Yoga through his pioneering teachings. Born Mukunda Lal Ghosh in Gorakhpur, India, in 1893, he demonstrated an intense spiritual inclination from childhood and became a disciple of the revered master Swami Sri Yukteswar Giri. In 1917, he founded the Yogoda Satsanga Society of India before traveling to the United States in 1920 to speak at the International Congress of Religious Liberals in Boston. That same year, he established the Self-Realization Fellowship in Los Angeles, which served as the international headquarters for his worldwide educational and spiritual work. Yogananda's monumental career reached an enduring milestone in 1946 with the publication of his widely celebrated literary masterpiece, *Autobiography of a Yogi*, which continues to serve as an accessible gateway to Eastern philosophy. His harmonious bridge between traditional Indian spirituality and modern Western thought permanently established yoga as a vital global practice.
