Book Description

July 1, 2011
Restlessness and calmness are always together. Restlessness comes from the mundane body. Submerge your soul in the Infinite before, during, and after every act-then you will get calmness. We are born for Self-realization-the God-consciousness in us. Think of God constantly, no matter what you are doing. Practice makes man perfect. An ounce of practice is worth a ton of theories. Theory will take a devotee outside, while practice will take him inside. Theory will make an individual restless and selfish. Practice will give him inner peace and liberation from ego. Practice, practice, and practice in order to feel the presence of God in every breath, in every sound you hear, in everything you see, in every though that comes to your mind, and even in the breathless state. Feel the presence of God as much in your enemy as in your friend. Remain firmly anchored in the Divine Omnipresent, the Divine Omniscient, the Divine Omnipotent - even when you are occupied in worldly activities.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rare and comprehensive analysis of the authentic Kriya Yoga by a true Guru, August 17, 2007
This review is from: Kriya Yoga: The Scientific Process of Soul Culture and the Essence of All Religions (Paperback)
Kriya Yoga is a sacred Yogic science that powerfully awakens a seeker's spiritual energy field and traditionally can only be revealed by a true Guru or through a designated teacher. "Kriya Yoga", by the great master, HH Paramahamsa Hariharananda is a rare gem as it describes in fine detail the science, history, tradition, and inner experience of the authentic Kriya Yoga science as taught by Lahiri Mahasaya, Swami Sriyukteshwarji, and Paramahamsa Hariharananda.

Do not be mistaken. This book does not reveal the techniques at all, but rather describes the power, the benefits, and the experiences of Kriya. Just through reading a book, you can't really practice a technique like Kriya. It contains many interesting and revealing diagrams which I have not seen anywhere else, many of which discuss how the chakras are affected by the Kriya technique.

Paramahamsa Hariharananda, who left his body in December, 2002 was a realized master and direct disciple of Swami Sriyukteshwarji, Paramahamsa Yogananda, and Swami Satyananda. He was a resident and acharya of the Karar Ashram of Swami Sriyukteshwarji for over 40 years. He is well known for having attained Nirvikalpa Samadhi, the supreme stage of yogic conciousness. He was a world teacher in both the East and West, yet remained extremely humble. He was the president of the Karar Ashram, the Kriya Yoga Institute (USA) as well as Kriya Yoga organizations in Europe.

This is a great book which describes a great deal about the benefits and power of Kriya. Don't think that you can attain realization just by reading it, one should practice a technique. Instead, it provides an excellent introduction for the novice and will prove especially interesting for those who enjoyed "Autobiography of a Yogi" by Paramahamsa Yogananda

5.0 out of 5 stars An extremely solid introduction to yoga and subtle realities, July 1, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Kriya Yoga: The Scientific Process of Soul Culture and the Essence of All Religions (Paperback)
I have come to appreciate that in the deep yogas of India, especially such as Kryia Yoga, exists profound and ancient knowledge about the reality of existence. This book is one of those rare treasures conveying masterful knowledge of the body and soul and their relationship to ultimate being. This book presents the principles of yoga but does not convey the practice of Kriya yoga itself which is best learned from a living teacher and they are around if you look. The writing style is very good being specific/technical but still being easy enough to follow that it does not become wonky.

Even if you have studied Yoga and metaphysics before this book has enough depth to help remind you of the wide scope of Yoga's truths. A beginner could not pick a better book for their orientation into Yoga and the deep wisdom of India.

And while you are reading this book you could do no better than listen to some of the best Yogic music around by listening to Shabda: Mantra Mysticism
