The word KRIYA means activity or movement – activity or movement of awareness or consciousness. It also means practical or preliminary action.
In contrast to other forms of Yoga, Kriya Yoga does not ask you to curb your mental fluctuations but asks you to purposely create activity in your consciousness. In this way, mental faculties are harmonised and flower to their fullest potential and coordination is brought about between the nervous system and the brain.
There are no restrictions or barriers to those who want to practise Kriya Yoga. Your religion, age, social- status, diet does not bar you from practising Kriya Yoga. According to me Kriya Yoga is an ideal method for the man of today. Only the important requirement of successful practice of Kriya Yoga is correct preparation and constant touch with ‘Guru’ who understands, rectifies your mistakes and guides you for the proper practice of Kriya.

On 1st December, 2009 – Datta Jayanti, Param Pujya Sadguru Yogiraj Sri Sri Mangeshda gave Mantra Diksha to disciples in a pious ceremony when a ‘havan’ was performed at our Juhu Centre.
As we all observe, there is a lot of negativity everywhere and the energy level is low. The regular Japa of the Mantra will help each one to increase our energy level. If our energy level increases, the energy level around us also increases…. thus extending the effect to the society and the world. Hundreds of disciples attended the ceremony and took advantage of the Mantra Diksha
In future, our revered Sadguruji intends to give this Mantra Diksha on large scale, so that many more benefit from it and increase their energy level as well as contribute to the World Peace

- From person to person through droplets created while coughing or sneezing by an infected person or
- If one touches an object (door knob, phones, etc.) which may have the virus and then one touches one’s eyes, mouth or nose.
