The layout of the book also can't be faulted; each quatrain is provided individually, with a paraphrase section, extended meaning and then a section on keys to the meaning. This makes the book easy to read either in one go or to treat the book as something to be dipped into. Also there are pictures included, inspired by some of the quatrains.
I treasure this book now. The poetry is truly beautiful and soul inspiring, while the presentation only adds to the experience and the enjoyment. This is a very deep book, with contemplation being a key to it's enjoyment. Yogananda has done a wonderful job of "explaining" this work of beauty. Although his language is easy to understand, the beauty is never sacrificed.
But this book and treasure what it has to teach you...
Even though the commentaries are full of esoteric wisdom, Yogananda writes in a poetic style that is easy on the eyes, mind, and soul.
I quote from Yogananda here: "Come, fill the Cup of Consciousness with the divine wine of bliss! Cast away your material desires (deceitful, because forever disillusioning), and fling into the crackling fire of fresh spiritual enthusiasm your robe of penitence for having ever indulged in them."
