Ananda is very happy to share with you our online library of books by Paramhansa Yogananda, Swami Kriyananda, and others. Our first online book was the 1946 edition of Yogananda's Autobiography of a Yogi. We've received numerous emails and letters from people who have found Yogananda through this online edition of his spiritual classic. Because of such feedback, we now offer six online books, with many more to come.

Faith Is My Armor, The Life of Swami Kriyananda, by Devi Novak.
The complete story of Swami Kriyananda's life, from his childhood in Rumania, to his desperate search for meaning in life, and his training under his great Guru, Paramhansa Yogananda.

It also recounts the powerful opposition he faced as he strove to fulfill the mission his Guru had bestowed upon him.


Whispers from Eternity
Paramhansa Yogananda's Whispers from Eternity has helped countless seekers develop a deeper relationship with God. Whispers from Eternity was first published in 1929. It was edited by Yogananda himself for the1949 edition. That is the edition we are sharing with you here.

God Is for Everyone
The essence of Paramhansa Yogananda's teachings is layed out in this book. Namely, that God is the only reality which everyone is seeking, whether they know it or not—and that finding God is the only practical way to find lasting happiness.

Hope for a Better World, by J. Donald Walters (Swami Kriyananda)
In these turbulent times when wars, religious strife, stifling beauracracy and urban decay threaten our very humanity, reducing us to social statistics, a fresh approach to the creation of a truly viable society is desperately needed.


Autobiography of a Yogi, by Paramhansa Yogananda
This spiritual classic has been read by millions of people. This is the original edition, just as Yogananda wrote it, without any of the countless editing changes made in later editions. Also includes all of the original photos- unavailable in later versions of the book.


The Path, by Swami Kriyananda
Kriyananda's autobiography is perhaps the most complete biography of Yogananda. The author shares over 400 stories and quotes from his Guru. The Path is full of examples of how to live the spiritual life more perfectly, through the training and example offered by Yogananda.

A Place Called Ananda, by Swami Kriyananda (J. Donald Walters)
This is the inspiring story of the founding of Ananda. It begins with Swami Kriyananda's personal training under his Guru, Paramhansa Yogananda, and continues through the struggle to build the most successful family of spiritual communities in the world today.

Shaped by Saints, by Devi Mukherjee
This beautifully written book takes you on a deeply inspiring pilgrimage to visit saints and God-realized masters of modern-day India. Written by Devi Mukherjee—a disciple of the great yoga master, Paramhansa Yogananda.

Education for Life, by Swami Kriyananda
Here at last is a book that provides real direction for constructive change in our schools. The need for such change is unquestionable. This book is the basis for the Education for Life (EFL) schools, and the EFL Foundation, which trains teachers, parents and educators.


Many Hands Make A Miracle: History of Ananda 1968-76, by Sadhana Devi Helin.
Inspiring, informative, and entertaining book about the "early days" of Ananda by one of its founding members. It recounts the dreams and struggles of the fledgling Ananda community, and its growth to a worldwide following.
