Ek Jeevani is a detailed and meticulous biography of this great spiritual guru whose life is explored with the general well-being in mind. This book ensues how Yogananda’s life changed and transformed at every step, from his childhood in India to his adulthood in the West when he was a teacher and a speaker. Bhola should hep herself by the mixture of the personal and spiritual in the narration. She vividly writes how Yogananda She encounters personalities like Mt Yukteswar Giri and Mt Gandhi and the events they co-experience. The author takes the reader on a journey of not just Yogananda's beginnings, his childhood and his time in India, but also about the difficulties and obstacles that Yogananda was faced with both, in India and the west. The book underlines an inseparable and central element, teachings of Yogananda. Bhola has wonderful narrations on Yogananda’s approaches that involve ideas about Kriya Yoga, meditation, as well as the nature of the reality. She also brings into clear focus Yogananda’s point of view about social and political matters. This book is a rare commodity for the bunch of people, who really want to know about Paramahansa Yogananda and his lessons. Not only is it a motivational tale of a man who dedicated to humanity but it is as well a touching story of a man who replenish his own heart through service to others. Ultimately, I suggest it not only to those who are interested in spirituality as well as any person who practices yoga or just simply wishes to be familiar with Paramahansa Yogananda's life.

The book is divided into three parts:The book is divided into three parts:
This section narrates about Yogananda's childhood and how he learnt spirituality from his Guru in early life, Shri Yukteswar Giri.
The near part deals with the Western travel of Yogananda and how he works towards spreading some of the teachings of Kriya Yoga.
Part 3 of the story describes the life of Yogananda in the final years and his legacy, too.
This book significantly packed punch into its few pages. It was intriguing. While Bhola skillfully weaves in the Singh's personal story, she vividly portrays the larger historical context too. She also offers a very brief and easily understandable description of the philosophy Yogananda.

Paramahansa Yogananda: "Ek Jeevani" by Rachna Bhola is an amazing portrayal of the great yogi, Shri Shri Paramahansa Yogananda. The Yogananda's teachings and timelessness wisdom in philosophy, spirituality, science, psychology, and education are not noteworthy but equally worthy to applaud. Through his extraordinary contributions in the areas of kriya yoga, science, and spirituality outside, his influence will always be remembered.

Paramahansa Yogananda founded the Yogoda Satsanga Society and Self-Realization Fellowship which are organizations meant to spread Swami's teachings and thoughts in a pure or profound way throughout the world. This book relies upon exclusively output of such organizations, especially 'Autobiography of a Yogi' authored by Paramahansa Yogananda himself, to introduce his teachings in a very comprehendible way.

The book excellently portrays the most prominent attribute of the enlightened person in the body of Paramahansa Yogananda, the great renunciation, austerity, discipline, yoga, and spirituality, which will serve as an outstanding example for the common man and highlight the path that leads to the ideal human being.
