"The soul loves to meditate, for in contact with Spirit lies its greatest
joy".

Dear
Friend,
Meditation
is one of the most important skills you can learn. With
its practise, you will find yourself becoming noticeably
calmer, happier, and more loving.
Swami
Kriyananda, the
founder of Ananda, has said, "The peace of your soul
awaits you at the centre of your own being", and it
is meditation—more than anything else—that will
help you discover, and live in, this peace.
Kriya
Yoga is the most advanced technique of meditation, brought
back after long dormancy to the world by Babaji. Our sequence
of meditation classes help prepare you increasingly for
this great gift, if you choose to accept it.
Here
on this Web site you can learn to meditate as well as find
links to extensive meditation resources such as The
Daily Meditator, a free monthly online newsletter
designed to help you meditate more deeply. You will also
find many useful articles on all aspects of meditation.
These resources can help you get started in meditation
and realise its full potential.
The meditation
practises we offer are based on the teachings of Paramhansa
Yogananda, as taught by his direct disciple, Swami Kriyananda.
These teachings are nonsectarian and offer practical solutions
to the challenges of modern life.
If you
are new to meditation—or have not yet established
a strong daily practice—we encourage you to begin
with the link,"Learn a Simple Technique Online".
The technique you will learn is one of the most sacred
and ancient of all yoga practices. If you have tried other
meditation methods before, but without real success, the
depth of this technique can work wonders for you.
Helping
people learn to meditate is our greatest joy, so please
contact us if you have any questions.
May your
meditations bring you serenity and joy.
Many
blessings,
Acharya Dhyana
Director,
Ananda Kriya Sangha
