The Kriya roseThe Path of Kriya


Kriya is the path that Yogananda described in his autobiography and is comprised of four techniques of meditation and pranayamas (methods of energy control) and the lifestyle that supports those practices for spiritual growth.

 

 

Step 1 – Learn to meditate with the Hong Sau Technique

Hong Saw is a technique that teaches you to focus on the breath. In the words of Swami Kriyananda in the book, The Art and Science of Raja Yoga:

"Why is the breath a natural focal point for the attention? Because it is the most universal obstacle to deep concentration."
