Kriya Yoga is an exact science which can be practised by all men, said Swami Chidananda Giri, president and spiritual head of Yogoda Satsanga Society of India/Self-Realization Fellowship (YSS/SRF) here on Sunday,

Sri Sri Swami Chidananda Giri delivered an uplifting spiritual discourse on spirituality and Kriya Yoga, addressing a diverse audience of 900+ attendees at Karnavati Club. Around 8,311 persons also joined the live-stream of this discourse via YSS YouTube channel from across the globe.
Swami Chidanandaji shared insights on the works of the world-renowned Master Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda, author of the best-selling spiritual classic “Autobiography of a Yogi”. Known as the ‘Father of Yoga’ in the west, Yoganandaji introduced millions of seekers into the ancient Indian science of Yoga through this seminal work.
Swamiji said, “Meditation -the path to divine bliss and abundance… Kriya Yogam Sharanam,” emphasizing the organization’s commitment to dissemination of the Kriya Yoga and other teachings of Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda.
Swamiji said, “We are now in an ascending cycle of human evolution. The younger generation will steer this world into an age of higher consciousness. Ancient sciences like Kriya Yoga will play a major role in these times of transformation.” In this age of science & technology, “Kriya Yoga,” he said, “is an exact science which can be practised by all men, irrespective of religion or creed. By enabling direct contact with the inner divine source within every man, Kriya awakens higher consciousness and becomes the key to inner peace and the antidote to all human suffering.”
“Kriya Yoga shall spread across all nations and aid in transforming this world,” said Swamiji, emphasizing the teachings of Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda and his organization (YSS/SRF).
The spiritual organizations — Yogoda Satsanga Society of India (YSS, headquartered in Kolkata) and Self-Realization Fellowship (SRF, headquartered in Los Angeles, USA) were founded more than 100 years ago by the world-renowned spiritual master, Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda.
