About the Series
Excerpted from a beloved series entitled Kriya Yoga: Inner Path to God, these talks on the “spiritual science of Self-enlightenment” were presented live by the founder of Awake Yoga Meditation, Swami Shankarananda, before he left the body in 2014. Each talk beautifully describes the function of each of the seven chakras in the process of self-unfoldment and shares some specific techniques that you can use right now to either enhance your existing meditation practice or prepare for your own Kriya Yoga journey.
Consider making a financial contribution to Awake Yoga Meditation
Your generosity makes it possible for AYM to share Kriya yoga, meditations, and teachings of truth with people around the world. It also allows the community to support the presiding teacher’s Dakshina (reimbursement of basic living expenses for housing, transportation, and insurance). The presiding teacher for Awake Yoga Meditation is Swami Nityananda.
Consider making a financial contribution to Swami’s Bowl
As the presiding teacher, Swami Nityananda selflessly offers her wisdom without taking a salary from Awake Yoga Meditation. Your gift honors her giving and ensures she can continue to share her invaluable teachings. The tradition of meditation communities like Awake Yoga Meditation is to support the presiding teacher’s Dakshina (reimbursement of basic living expenses for housing, transportation, and insurance). All of the other myriad expenses of life are offered from student to teacher through Swami’s Bowl.
