Good but the original version with the blue cover betterBy MIt's hard to give this book less than 5 stars because I highly recommend it and it can completely change your life. I originally read the version with the blue cover which I found out later is apparently the one that wasn't edited after Yogananda's death. Many years later I repurchased this red cover version because it came with the free CD and I figured.. how different can it be? Well; it is very different. The pictures are different. It has more recent pictures of what is apparently the newer leaders of SRF after Yogananda's death. Some of the amazing older pics from the original book were removed which is just heartbreaking for me. I can tell it just isn't the same vibration. I wasn't getting the same feel. So a few days into it; I put the book down and just bit the bullet; got over my penny pinching self; and re-ordered the blue version. I would say; if you are interested more in the SRF organization; buy this one. If you want the more original version that Yogananda himself wrote; get the blue one. The blue version is also free online; I downloaded it; but nothing like having a book in your hands. Especially one that has a healing vibrational quality to it.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Great BookBy Charles L. LaurenziLove it. Since it's an autobiography there many bits and pieces of his normal personal life mixed in among his amazing Spiritual Walk; which serves nicely to keep it human. Some amazing stories and still he makes it plain that he's not above anyone else. Will read it again.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. I don't care who you are or what you believe ...By CustomerI don't care who you are or what you believe; read this book. I have given this book to a dozen people in the two years since I first read it. As in my own case; reading it has gone along with a string of small and occasionally major miracles that have added so much to their lives. I don't get how this comes about; but it has been so powerful that I now understand why Steve Jobs had it as the only book on his iPad.
