But a song which is born out of the depth of true devotion to God and which is continuously chanted\, audibly or mentally\, with ever-increasing deep devotion until response is consciously received from Him in the form of communion\, ecstasy\, and boundless joy\, is a spiritualized song.  \n“Such songs\, like live matches\, produce the fire of God-contact whenever they are struck on the foundation-stone of devotion. Ordinary songs are like wet matches that do not produce any spark of God-contact.”  \nYogananda\, a great yoga master who taught in the West (and whose teachings we follow)\, introduced a new form of chanting.He gave a new expression to devotion by writing chants with simple melodies and verses so anyone could sing them and yet uplift one’s consciousness in profound ways.  \nSwami Kriyananda\, his direct disciple\, also wrote many chants (along with 400 pieces of music) expressing the divine inspiration he felt from God and his Guru. 								\n				\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n				\n							\n			\n							\n					\n						\n		\n						\n				\n				\n				\n					About The Speakers				\n				\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n				\n																														\n				\n					\n		\n				\n			\n						\n				\n									Nayaswami Aditya \nDr. Aditya Gait is a Medical Practitioner whose chief interests lie in sharing the teachings and benefits of yoga as a healthy and successful way of life.

It is a timeless scientific method for working with the life force to bring greater stillness\, intuition\, and inner joy. Enlightened sages have taught it for thousands of years.  Patanjali mentions it in his Sutras\, and Krishna mentions it in the Bhagavad Gita. Kriya works by giving the practitioner control of the life force. Through life-force control\, the yogi can overcome all obstacles that prevent union with the divine. The Kriya technique was kept secret for many centuries. It was revived in 1861\, when the great yogi Mahavatar Babaji taught the technique to his disciple Lahiri Mahasaya. Lahiri then taught the technique to his disciple Sri Yukteswar\, who taught it to his disciples\, including Paramhansa Yogananda. \nYogananda then popularized Kriya Yoga through his book Autobiography of a Yogi and through his public teaching in the West. Kriya has been taught in an unbroken link of spiritual succession to this day. \nThis session will help you understand the purpose\, benefits and the power of Kriya Yoga. You can then begin your journey of learning Kriya Yoga through the courses offered at Ananda Sangha. 								\n				\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n							\n			\n							\n					\n						\n		\n						\n				\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n				\n					Frequently Asked Questions				\n				\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n				\n					            \n            \n					Are seats reserved?Seats are available on a first-come\, first-served basis.

You can learn more about us here and about our line of Gurus.\n					\n					Which language will the chants be in?The chants will be sung in both Hindi and English. \n					\n					How is this different from other kirtans or devotional concerts?We are disciples of Paramhansa Yogananda. Our selection of chants will include chants written by Yogananda and his direct disciple\, Swami Kriyananda. While most kirtans may energise you in the moment\, their inspiration is not long-lasting and often more restless than devotional. The purpose of this kirtan is to take you deeper into your inner Self\, where you can tangibly feel God’s presence.

It is a timeless scientific method for working with the life force to bring greater stillness\, intuition\, and inner joy. Enlightened sages have taught it for thousands of years.  Patanjali mentions it in his Sutras\, and Krishna mentions it in the Bhagavad Gita. Kriya works by giving the practitioner control of the life force. Through life-force control\, the yogi can overcome all obstacles that prevent union with the divine. The Kriya technique was kept secret for many centuries. It was revived in 1861\, when the great yogi Mahavatar Babaji taught the technique to his disciple Lahiri Mahasaya. Lahiri then taught the technique to his disciple Sri Yukteswar\, who taught it to his disciples\, including Paramhansa Yogananda. \nYogananda then popularized Kriya Yoga through his book Autobiography of a Yogi and through his public teaching in the West. Kriya has been taught in an unbroken link of spiritual succession to this day. \nThis session will help you understand the purpose\, benefits and the power of Kriya Yoga.

Kriya works by giving the practitioner control of the life force. Through life-force control\, the yogi can overcome all obstacles that prevent union with the divine. The Kriya technique was kept secret for many centuries. It was revived in 1861\, when the great yogi Mahavatar Babaji taught the technique to his disciple Lahiri Mahasaya. Lahiri then taught the technique to his disciple Sri Yukteswar\, who taught it to his disciples\, including Paramhansa Yogananda. \nYogananda then popularized Kriya Yoga through his book Autobiography of a Yogi and through his public teaching in the West.

Kriya works by giving the practitioner control of the life force. Through life-force control\, the yogi can overcome all obstacles that prevent union with the divine. The Kriya technique was kept secret for many centuries. It was revived in 1861\, when the great yogi Mahavatar Babaji taught the technique to his disciple Lahiri Mahasaya. Lahiri then taught the technique to his disciple Sri Yukteswar\, who taught it to his disciples\, including Paramhansa Yogananda. \nYogananda then popularized Kriya Yoga through his book Autobiography of a Yogi and through his public teaching in the West.

But a song which is born out of the depth of true devotion to God and which is continuously chanted\, audibly or mentally\, with ever-increasing deep devotion until response is consciously received from Him in the form of communion\, ecstasy\, and boundless joy\, is a spiritualized song.  \n“Such songs\, like live matches\, produce the fire of God-contact whenever they are struck on the foundation-stone of devotion. Ordinary songs are like wet matches that do not produce any spark of God-contact.”  \nYogananda\, a great yoga master who taught in the West (and whose teachings we follow)\, introduced a new form of chanting.He gave a new expression to devotion by writing chants with simple melodies and verses so anyone could sing them and yet uplift one’s consciousness in profound ways.  \nSwami Kriyananda\, his direct disciple\, also wrote many chants (along with 400 pieces of music) expressing the divine inspiration he felt from God and his Guru. 								\n				\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n				\n							\n			\n							\n					\n						\n		\n						\n				\n				\n				\n					About The Speakers				\n				\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n				\n																														\n				\n					\n		\n				\n			\n						\n				\n									Nayaswami Aditya \nDr. Aditya Gait is a Medical Practitioner whose chief interests lie in sharing the teachings and benefits of yoga as a healthy and successful way of life.

It is a timeless scientific method for working with the life force to bring greater stillness\, intuition\, and inner joy. Enlightened sages have taught it for thousands of years.  Patanjali mentions it in his Sutras\, and Krishna mentions it in the Bhagavad Gita. Kriya works by giving the practitioner control of the life force. Through life-force control\, the yogi can overcome all obstacles that prevent union with the divine. The Kriya technique was kept secret for many centuries. It was revived in 1861\, when the great yogi Mahavatar Babaji taught the technique to his disciple Lahiri Mahasaya. Lahiri then taught the technique to his disciple Sri Yukteswar\, who taught it to his disciples\, including Paramhansa Yogananda. \nYogananda then popularized Kriya Yoga through his book Autobiography of a Yogi and through his public teaching in the West. Kriya has been taught in an unbroken link of spiritual succession to this day. \nThis session will help you understand the purpose\, benefits and the power of Kriya Yoga. You can then begin your journey of learning Kriya Yoga through the courses offered at Ananda Sangha. 								\n				\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n							\n			\n							\n					\n						\n		\n						\n				\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n				\n					Frequently Asked Questions				\n				\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n				\n					            \n            \n					Are seats reserved?Seats are available on a first-come\, first-served basis.

You can learn more about us here and about our line of Gurus.\n					\n					Which language will the chants be in?The chants will be sung in both Hindi and English. \n					\n					How is this different from other kirtans or devotional concerts?We are disciples of Paramhansa Yogananda. Our selection of chants will include chants written by Yogananda and his direct disciple\, Swami Kriyananda. While most kirtans may energise you in the moment\, their inspiration is not long-lasting and often more restless than devotional. The purpose of this kirtan is to take you deeper into your inner Self\, where you can tangibly feel God’s presence. You will learn how chanting can be used as an effective tool for meditation and spiritual growth. \n					\n					Where is the venue?PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry Address: PHD House\, 4/2\, August Kranti Marg\, Siri Institutional Area\, Block A\, Nipccd Campus\, Hauz Khas\, New Delhi\, Delhi 110016 Location: https://share.google/9BkGQDXJA4F7U39fz\n					\n					Is there a parking space available?Yes\, there is sufficient parking space. \n					\n					What is the nearest metro station?The nearest metro station is Hauz Khas\, which is about 1 km away from the venue. \n									\n				\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n							\n			\n		\n						\n				\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n						\n					\n			\n						\n				\n					Awaken the Natural Love of Your Heart!				\n				\n				\n				\n									Come and experience the joy of devotional chanting and learn how to uplift your consciousness through the power of music. 								\n				\n				\n				\n									\n					\n						\n						\n							\n									Register Now\n					\n					\n				\n								\n				\n					\n		\n					\n		\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n						\n					\n			\n						\n				\n									The kirtan will happen in-person only at the PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry\, Hauz Khas\, New Delhi\, 110016 (directions attached below).
