Paramahansa Yogananda

Forfatterbiografi

Paramahansa Yogananda (født som Mukunda Lal Ghosh, 5. januar 1893; død 7. marts 1952) var en indisk og amerikansk hinduistisk munk, yogi og guru. Han regnes som en central formidler af yoga og meditation i Vesten og grundlagde organisationerne Self-Realization Fellowship samt Yogoda Satsanga Society of India, som skulle udbrede hans lære om Kriya Yoga. Hans forfatterskab er tæt knyttet til den spirituelle selvbiografiske tradition, hvor religiøs erfaring og praktisk meditationsvej flettes sammen i et narrativ. Yoganandas mest kendte værk er selvbiografien Autobiography of a Yogi, udgivet første gang i 1946, som gennem hans egen livshistorie præsenterer en bred kontaktflade af spirituelle skikkelser og samtidig gør indisk “sjælens videnskab” tilgængelig for et vestligt publikum. Bogen beskrives af hans organisation som en fortælling, der har rørt millioner, og som i forlængelse af hans arbejde har bidraget til udbredelsen af meditation og yoga globalt. Der er ikke sikre oplysninger i de anvendte kilder om specifikke litterære priser, men hans betydning for religions- og spirituallitteraturen knytter sig især til hans rolle som forfatter og lærer, hvis værk fortsat bruges som tekst og inspirationskilde.
