Didn’t Yogananda write “Autobiography of a Yogi”? Perhaps her parents were fans.
Gosh, her parents must hate her to give her a name like Yogananda. Almost looks like Yoga-nada.
Paramahansa Yogananda.
I used to work up at the Self Realization Fellowship as assistants for the nuns after I graduated from Catholic School. they hired about a dozen of us from Marymount High School in WLA...all of us Catholic....none us into their thing.
It was in the old Mount Washington Hotel. Still there.....and one of the Lake headquarters is close to my house nearby in Hollywood.
Nice people actually. All I did was drive around and buy food delicacies from various high end shops in LA. They had expensive taste in top of the line fruit. We girls who worked for the nuns never had any contact with the male novitiates.
