Awakening the Spine Through Kriya Yoga | Brother Chidananda

Brother Chidananda, president of Self-Realization Fellowship/Yogoda Satsanga Society of India, discusses ways in which the science of Kriya Yoga as taught by Paramahansa Yogananda allows us to maintain a divine connection even while living in the material world.

Using an engaging example from ancient Greek mythology, Brother Chidananda illustrates the relationship between the yogic practice of pranayama (withdrawing the life force from the senses and directing it toward the higher centers of divine perception in the spine and brain), and retracing our steps back to the freedom in God-awareness that we have temporarily lost by being trapped in the maze of mortal consciousness.

By utilizing the science of Kriya Yoga “we don’t have to go through life in a state of complete forgetfulness, complete obliviousness,” he assures us, “because Kriya Yoga is the science of awakening the spine.”
