autobiography of a yogi

This is one of my most favourite books of all time.  If you want to read a book that will transform your life – then start with this one.  I think there is a magic in this book, that just makes you understand what life is all about.  There is a blue cover one and a Orange cone. –  Blue one is the original and the best.  The Orange one was changed a bit.
