Ada’s Score

How does Ada score books? →

Paramahansa Yogananda's luminous account of his spiritual journey from a curious child in Bengal to a revered teacher who brought Eastern mysticism to the West is one of the most widely read spiritual memoirs ever written. With disarming candor and poetic wonder, he describes encounters with saints, miracles, and the inner architecture of consciousness. The book introduced millions of readers to yoga philosophy and meditation, influencing figures from Steve Jobs to George Harrison. It remains a singular document of a life lived entirely in pursuit of the divine.
