Kriya Yoga is a meditation technique that quickly accelerates one’s spiritual growth. It was first made widely known by Paramhansa Yogananda in his Autobiography of a Yogi. According to Yogananda, Kriya is the most effective technique available to mankind today for reaching the goal of Yoga: union with the Divine.
“The expression of the spirit increases in proportion to the development of the body and mind. Therefore, yoga prescribes methods to train and develop the physical body and mind. The highly trained body must first of all be strong and healthy. The goal of all yoga reasoning is how to concentrate the mind, how to discover its hidden facets, and how to awaken the inner spiritual faculties.” – Swami Vishnu-devananda
Our bodies are constantly throwing off waste materials through various cleansing mechanisms: lungs, kidneys, sweat glands, bowels. The purpose of yogic cleansing exercises, known as Kriyas is to assist nature in removing waste products. The Hatha Yoga Pradipika prescribes these Kriyas (Shat Kriyas) as being mainly for those who are flabby and phlegmatic in nature. However, for those of us living in a world where our air, food and water are all polluted, these cleansing exercises can be a blessing for all – if they are not overdone.
