The Kriya Yoga
The kriya yoga is a set of techniques for meditation, which include pranayama (yogic breathing). According to Mahavatar Babaji, his first diffuser, kriya yoga is similar to raja yoga. The Kriya Yoga is described by its practitioners as an ancient system of yoga revived in 1861 by Mahavatar Babaji through his disciple Lahiri Mahasaya. The system consists of a series of techniques of pranayama designed to rapidly accelerate spiritual development and create a deep state of peace and union with God. Yogananda says in his books that to achieve and experience the state of samadhi you need the absolute cessation of all movement and activity of the body, stopping the breathing, brain activity, and metabolism.
Only this may result in disconnection with the outside world and what binds us to it, the body. Merely says that the body and binds our consciousness and concentration, which seem to be inextricably linked in addition to continued close, with the first through the five senses and unconscious body processes. We can not control our blood pressure or heart rhythm at will but a part of our ‘unconscious consciousness’ controls everything and is partially “occupied” it. In this state of samadhi consciousness would be free of such ties.
