Not sure if this is the right fit?
Consider Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramhansa Yogananda. Recommended by 7 sources.
“Paramhansa Yogananda's first-person spiritual memoir reads like a series of awakenings: travel vignettes, teacher–disciple encounters, and repeated miracle accounts. Its useful aspect is the vivid sense of devotional practice and concrete portrayals of meditation routines and daily discipline, which can motivate people trying to adopt a practice. Its main limitation is a reverential, anecdote-heavy tone with little critical distance or historical sourcing. Expect a devotional voice more than an academic one.”
