#OTD #Yogi Yogananda, #Indian #Hindu #Monk, is born.
He is regarded as the #Father of #Yoga in the #West.
Fans of his autobiography included George Harrison & Steve Jobs.
After the American #Botanist, #LutherBurbank died in 1926, Yogi wrote,
"Webster's Dictionary [lists the word #Burbank as a verb] & defines it:
To cross or graft (a plant)... to improve by selecting good features...
Beloved Burbank... your very name is now a synonym for #Goodness!"
