A yogi who faithfully practices the technique is gradually freed from karma or the lawful chain of cause-effect equilibrium.

 Book Review: Autobiography of a Yogi - LIME
The 60th anniversary of the publication of Paramahansa Yogananda's Autobiography of a Yogi is a welcome opportunity to revisit just such a philosophical and spiritual touchstone.
Indeed, his first memories were "of a distant life in which I had been a yogi in Himalayan snows." He studied in regular schools, always pursuing his spiritual inclinations throughout various adventures and misadventures—attempting in high school, for instance, to run away to the Himalayas to find a spiritual master.
The book is not structured as a series of yogic pronouncements from on high; rather, explorations of yoga philosophy and teachings are woven into tales of meeting practitioners of mystic arts (levitating saints, etc.), of studying with various gurus, of travels to sacred sites.
