 Kriya Yoga -“Selected Readings from Autobiography of a Yogi


Because there are 49 chapters in Autobiography of a Yogi and we have only 13 sessions before the year ends, we will establish a course from the 13 chapters selected by Arley Gaines, who is a disciple of a direct disciple of Yogananda, author of Autobiography of a Yogi.

This selected-readings class will give insights into 13 chapters and will also include a meditation period.

The book is a reprint of the first edition and costs $15.00.  The class costs nothing, except that which you wish to donate.

About Kriya Yoga by Roy Eugene Davis

The Sanskrit word kriya means "action." Yoga can mean the practices used to facilitate overall well-being and spiritual growth, or oneness-consciousness: the final result of practice. In Patanjali's yoga-sutras, a two thousand year old treatise on super conscious meditation, kriya yoga is defined as discipline of mental and sensory impulses, meditation, and surrender of ordinary self-consciousness (egoism) in favor of God-realization.


Although kriya yoga has been known and practiced for centuries, it was Roy Eugene Davis' guru, Paramahansa Yogananda, who first emphasized it in the west. Yogananda traveled from India to America in 1920 and lectured, wrote, and trained disciples for 32 years before his passing in 1952. His best known book, Autobiography of a Yogi, is now published in multiple languages around the world.
