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.

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.

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 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.
