Kriya Yoga – Kriya Yoga is one of the most ancient branches of Yoga. It mainly consists of various levels of specific Asana, Pranayama, Mudra, Bandha, Mantra, mental awareness, visualization and meditation which altogether intend to accelerate inner unfoldment. There are two popular schools of Kriya Yoga. The first was taught by Paramhamsa Yogananda which is very secret and an aspirant needs to be initiated in the tradition to receive the knowledge of Kriya Yoga. The second was developed by one of the greatest exponents of Yoga Swami Sivananda Saraswati. Swami Sivananda Saraswati initiated Swami Satyananda Saraswati into the knowledge of Kriya Yoga. Swami Satyananda Saraswati designed the teachings of Kriya Yoga in a more practical form for the good of humanity. In the Traditional Kriya Yoga Teacher Training Course, we express the method of Kriya Yoga taught by Swami Satyananda Saraswati.

Kriya Pranayama

  1. Introduction

Kriya Pranayama is a central technique of the Kriya Yoga tradition, popularized by Lahiri Mahasaya, Sri Yukteswar, and Paramahansa Yogananda. It is not just a breathing exercise, but a spiritual energy-control technique that accelerates evolution by harmonizing body, breath, and consciousness. Unlike ordinary pranayama, Kriya Pranayama works with the subtle pranic currents in the spine, aiming to awaken kundalini and expand awareness.

    I came to Bangalore to follow a 10 day private teacher training with Karuna, and it was a truly enriching experience.
    I already hold a 200 h TTC in Hatha Yoga, as well as other diplomas. However, through my own experience, I feel that
    … More a 200 h yoga training is not enough to fully grasp the bigger picture of what yoga truly is. What I deeply appreciated with Karuna is that he also offers trainings focused on specific subjects, allowing for a much deeper and more embodied understanding.
    For this private yoga training, I chose to explore mudras, mantras, and somatics. Being able to dive deeply into these themes helped me clarify and understand other aspects of yoga more clearly, not only intellectually, but also through direct experience, guided by Karuna.
    The one to one format is a real gift. It creates space to ask questions, to slow down, and to spend more time on areas that personally need deeper integration. Karuna also shares related knowledge and encourages dialogue with what you are learning, making the whole process very alive and meaningful.
    I truly appreciate how Karuna offers many different subjects and learning formats, and how he adapts his teaching to each person. His approach is attentive, sensitive, and respectful of individual paths.
    Another beautiful aspect is that during the weekend, group students join the classes. Karuna skillfully manages to continue our individual learning while also allowing a collective learning experience. This opens the learning in a different and enriching way.
    I had a wonderful time, and I will very likely continue other trainings with Karuna, either online (which is also an option 😉) or in Bangalore.
    Namaste 🙏
