–Thomas Mann, Nobel laureate

“You would be hard-pressed to find anyone on the spiritual path whose life has not been influenced by this profound work of literature. I first read Autobiography of a Yogi in the 1970s during a vacation in the mountains of Guatemala. It awakened in me a desire to plumb my own spiritual depths and heights. It started me in a path of yoga, meditation, and self-exploration that has continued until this day. I am so grateful for all the wonderful gifts that have followed from these pursuits.”
–Jack Canfield, co-creator of the Chicken Soup for the Soul series
