In the beginning I was completely enthused. The book transported me into another world during the first one or even two weeks of reading. (I read only a few chapters per day.) Then the torture started. After every possible miracle has been performed by the Indian saints, Yogananda repeats himself over and over and over and over again. God is great, the saints are great, kriya yoga is great, India is great, God is great, the saints are great, and so on. Thereby writing in a style that, for me, is hard to read without sighing from time to time. Sentences like the following do not appeal a lot to me: "Many rapturous moments have been spent in gazing, almost absentmindedly, at the ever changing canvas of God stretched across the firmament, for his touch alone is able to produce colors that vibrate with the freshness of life." To me that sounds like the diary entry of a teenage girl who just came home from the latest awesome bible lesson. And references to the bible there are indeed enough, as well as pseudo-scientific explanations of spiritual phenomena (and vice versa). What I really liked about the book were the teachings given not by Yogananda but the saints. There is some deep truth in parts of the text, hence the three stars. I really couldn't give it more, for the second half of the book i had to force myself to read. The great grandson of Lahiri Mahasaya has some interesting videos on YouTube. He clearly points out that some of Yogananda's claims are nothing more than, well, marketing.
