    Yogananda was brought up in a devout loving Hindu family.At an early age Yoganandas mother passed away and this pushed the young Mukunda (as he then was) into a deep grief.However this experience encouraged Yogananda to seek beyond the world and practise spiritual discipline.

    In his famous autobiography of a Yogi he explains how his early life was filled with visiting various the various saints of Bengal and seeking to learn from their spiritual wisdom.
    ...
    On becoming a disciple of Sri Yukteswar Yogananda spent most of his time in the ashram of his Master where he practised meditation for many hours eventually attaining a glimpse of the cosmic consciousness.

    In 1917 Yogananda started work as a teacher in a school in Ranchi.The school was a special combination of modern educational methods and the ancient Indian Yoga systems to promote spiritual and physical well being.Mahatma Gandhi visited the school and was moved to say: This institution has deeply impressed my mind.

    Increasingly Paramahansa Yogananda felt a call to travel to America and with his Gurus blessings Yogananda left India for America in 1920 as a delegate to an international congress of religious leaders in Boston.In 1924 he returned to America to begin a lecture tour in which he offered the highest spiritual ideals of Vedanta in a format appropiate for modern American audiences.It was also in 1924 that Yogananda founded the Self Realisation Fellowship an organisation dedicated to promoting the ideals of Yogananda and providing an opportunity for seekers to practise his teachings.

    Over the next 20 years the teachings of Yogananda prospered and many sincere seekers were attracted to the yoga system and teachings he offered.Therefore Yogananda sought to establish a spiritual community or ashram in Los Angeles.This has now become the headquarters of the Self Realisation Fellowship.

    In 1935 Yogananda returned to India for 18 months.Here he embarked on another tour meeting many of Indias great saints of the days.
    ...
    On March 7th 1952 Yogananda entered mahasamadhi (which is a Yogis conscious decision to leave the body).
