The true follower of Kriya Yoga is the highest yogi, and Kriya Yoga is the greatest yoga technique ever developed in man’s search for the Infinite. -Paramhansa Yogananda

Paramhansa Yogananda taught Kriya Yoga as part of a comprehensive spiritual path. His teachings help us experience the truth that a life of inner joy, free from pain and limitation is not only possible, it’s our Divine birthright! Everyone has this power and with the help of yogic practices such as Kriya Yoga, this choice is within our reach all the time!

Come enjoy a casual conversation about the Soul’s spiritual journey and how to make spiritual progress, based on the teachings of Paramhansa Yogananda.

The great Self-realized master Paramhansa Yogananda’s mission was to bring this ancient science to the modern age. Kriya Yoga might be the MOST practical way we can do this because it not only changes us on the inside, it also finds expression in our daily lives. Kriya Yoga helps us calm our reactive processes so that we gain a sense of self-possession and inner joy despite outer circumstances.

  • What is our Soul nature and how can understanding this help us find inner joy?
  • Kriya Yoga: A path and a technique
  • Opportunity for questions about the spiritual path
