English: Paramhansa Yogananda was the first yoga master of India whose mission it was to live and teach in the West. In the 1920s, enthusiastic audiences filled the largest halls in America to hear him speak. His initial impact was truly impressive. But his lasting influence is greater still. This book, first published in 1946, helped launch, and continues to inspire, a spiritual revolution in the West. It was named one of the top one hundred spiritual books of the century. Only rarely does a sage of Paramhansa Yogananda's stature write a firsthand account of his life experiences. Followers of many religious traditions have come to recognize Autobiography of a Yogi as a masterpiece of spiritual literature. Yet, for all its depth, it is full of gentle humor, lively stories, and practical common sense. This is a verbatim reprinting of the original edition, now also including previously unreleased bonus materials. This is the only available edition that contains: - The original, unedited text, as written by Yogananda himself, free from posthumous changes introduced by others. - An all-new foreword and afterword, written by Swami Kriyananda, one of Yogananda's best-known direct disciples. Spanish: Paramhansa Yogananda fue el primer maestro de yoga de la India cuya mision fue vivir y ensenar en Occidente. En la decada de los veinte del siglo XX, multitudes entusiastas abarrotaban los mas grandes auditorios en Estados Unidos para escucharlo. Su impacto inicial fue realmente impresionante, pero su influencia permanente es aun mas grande. Este libro, inicialmente publicado en 1946, desato y aun continua inspirando una revolucion espiritual en Occidente. Este libro es considerado entre los 100 mejores libros de espiritualidad. Rara vez, un sabio de la estatura de Paramhansa Yogananda, escribe de primera mano sus experiencias de vida. Los seguidores de muchas tradiciones religiosas reconocen la Autobiografia de un Yogui como una obra maestra de la espiritualidad. Esta edicion pone de manifiesto una inmediatez, un humorismo y una universalidad sorprendentes. Para preservar al maximo este espiritu, en la traduccion al espanol se ha intentado respetar fielmente el estilo, los terminos y expresiones elegidos por Yogananda, a veces bastante creativos e inusuales, la construccion de las frases e incluso la puntuacion del texto original. Tambien la grafica se ha basado en aquella edicion de 1946. Esta reimpresion textual de la edicion original contiene: - Los textos originales, sin editar, tal como Yogananda mismo los escribio, libres de cualquier cambio postumo realizado por terceros. - Prologo y epilogo nuevos, escritos por Swami Kriyananda, uno de sus discipulos directos mas conocidos.
