Lecture on Kriya Yoga, a non-sectarian, scientific and practical meditation technique practised by sages and saints since time immemorial.
About this event
Kriya Yoga UK is pleased to announce the visit of Yogacharya Michael Rieser to the Midlands to teach Kriya Yoga at this event. If you are interested in learning, there will be an introductory lecture on Friday evening and an opportunity to receive initiation and to learn and practise the techniques of Kriya Yoga on Saturday and Sunday.
Kriya Yoga is the ancient and mystical path to self realisation. ‘Kri’ is the work or activity carried out by ‘ya’ the indwelling soul. Yoga is the union of individual self and Supreme Self. Kriya Yoga is a non-sectarian, scientific and practical meditation technique practised by sages and saints since time immemorial. Kriya Yoga leads to the transformation of the physical consciousness into Divine consciousness and is the essence of all yoga’s taught in the world.
In order to practise Kriya Yoga, one needs to receive initiation which can only be given with the grace and love of the Master through an authorised teacher, during which the body is purified and energised. The initiate may perceive Divine Light, Divine Vibration and Divine Sound in the whole body. There is no book or lesson to learn the Kriya Yoga techniques. Kriya Yoga emanates from beyond the five sense organs.
Registering for the introductory lecture will ensure that you will have a place for initiation on Saturday. You will receive further details of initiation once you have registered. Please note that the cost of the initiation is £155 plus seminar fee of £50 payable on Saturday by card or cash. We would also be grateful if you can complete all the relevant information on the order form as this will be used to ensure that your initiation is properly recorded.
History
After studying mechanical engineering in Karlsruhe, Michael Rieser worked 35 years as an engineer at BMW in Munich on exhaust gas purification for engines. He is a father of two sons born in 1991 and 1993.
In 1987 Michael was initiated into Kriya Yoga by Rajarshi Peter van Breukelen. Since 1991 he and his wife Gerti have been organising Kriya Yoga programs in Munich.
The encounters with Gurudev Paramahamsa Hariharananda between 1991 and 2002 and with Guruji Paramahamsa Prajnanananda since 1994 were great blessings.
In 2023 Michael was authorised by Paramahamsa Prajnanananda to teach Kriya Yoga.
