Kriya Yoga meditation retreat in Kandertal, Switzerland
Kriya Yoga follows the path laid out by Rishi Patanjali in his ‘Yoga Sutras’ 2400 years ago.
Kriya Yoga belongs to the inner level of yoga ‘meditation’. It utilises the fine connection between Prana (subtle breath) and Chit (universal consciousness).
Samadhi (pure consciousness) is obtained in the meditation by awakening the pranic body (human energy system). The awakening occurs in the meditation by cultivating the breath and the 7 Chakras.
Kriya Yoga was made famous in the west by Paramahamsa Yogananda. He wrote the book “Autobiography of a Yogi”, which became a ‘most read’ for all who are interested in yoga.
The structured Kriya Yoga Retreat includes yoga and meditation practices that have relevance for anyone who wish to advance in their inner development. All the practices can easily be continued afterwards.
Basu have more than 2 decades of experience guiding others on the path of yoga. A path that can culminate in Self-realization (Kaivalya), when practicing continuously.
Being a Kriya Acharya, he is competed in initiating others into Kriya Yoga.
The process: During the retreat you will experience a gradual expansion of awareness combined with insights into your mind’s conditioned patterns (samskaras). These insights helps restoring a stable flow of consciousness.
Increased awareness all day long: The practice of being mindful in all activities is empowered doing the whole retreat. Continues practice (Abhyasa) is the main requisite for success on the path of yoga.
Retreat Content: The Retreat is a combination of Kriya Yoga Meditation, Mindfulness meditation, Pranayama, Kriya Hatha Yoga, Surya namaskar (Sun salutation) and Yoga Nidra (conscious relaxation).
Diksha (Initiation into Kriya Yoga): If this is your second retreat it is possible to receive Initiation together with the complete practice of Kriya Yoga. The practice has been handed down by the Masters of the Kriya Yoga lineage.
