Paramahansa Yogananda was born on January 5, 1893, in Gorakhpur, India, to a devout Hindu family.
At the age of 16, Yogananda experienced a profound spiritual awakening, which led him to study the ancient Indian scriptures and meditation techniques.
Yogananda's teachings emphasize the importance of meditation, self-awareness, and devotion to God.
Yogananda wrote several books, including "Autobiography of a Yogi," which became a classic in the spiritual literature.
Yogananda founded the Self-Realization Fellowship, a spiritual organization dedicated to spreading his teachings.
