Kriya yoga introduced to Guyana, future programmes to come

The Kriya Yoga Institute brought its work to Guyana recently, providing a free lecture to the public on the ancient and scientific path of kriya yoga meditation by Swami Purnatmananda Giri.

Kriya Yoga International is organised into regions: Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, Oceania and South America. Each region has its headquarters plus several ashrams and centres to serve the needs of devotees and practitioners.

Giri told the News Room that Shri Gurudev Paramahamsa Hariharanandaji was instructed by Mahavatar Babaji Maharaj to go to the west and spread the message of Kriya Yoga to sincere seekers.

“This brought our Master to the West. We are carrying out his mission, vision and work and appropriately bringing Kriya Yoga to all those that sincerely desire this ancient and scientific path of meditation” he explained.

The trip helped the team understand more about the country, people and potential locations for talks and future programmes.

Kriya Yoga is said to be the most ancient path of meditation. It has the potential to change the individual in a positive way, Giri said. “Kriya Yoga is a simple, yet extraordinarily powerful, meditation technique – a quick path to reach higher states of consciousness and change your life by developing mind, body, intellect and awareness of the soul.”
