May this introductory booklet be an inspiration for those drawn to the Yogic Path, by the simplification of some complex traditional teachings, that have been shared for thousands of years.

I recommend reading The Holy Science and Autobiography Of A Yogi

by Sri Yukeshwar and Paramahansa Yogananda

for further contemplation.

~  Five Yogic Paths~

Hatha Yoga- Strengthening with Asanas, Breath, Japa

Jnana Yoga- Knowledge: Study and application

Bhakti Yoga- Love: Chanting and Meditation

Karma Yoga- Action: Service.

Raja Yoga- Encompassment of Duality

Mahavatar Babaji~ Kriya Yoga

 Babaji is Guru to the lineage of Paramahansa Yogananda author of Autobiography of a Yogi, Swami Sri Yukteswar author of The Holy Science and Lahiri Mahasaya as well as many others.

In 1988 I began practicing fervently the teachings of Kriya Yoga.

This continued in a traditional Guru/Disciple commitment for nine years.

Until one evening in the Temple, Mahavatar Babaji appeared before me, with instructions to ‘be independent’.

Teachings are always available to the sincere student, whether externally or from the inner tutor.

Ask and it shall be given.
