The Science of Tantrik Pranayama
Part I: Yogananda
We begin this series by investigating the practice of Kriyā Yoga brought to the West in 1920 by Paramahamsa Yogānanda, author of Autobiography of a Yogi. Yogananda’s lineage claims ancient roots for this prānāyāṃa-based practice; Kriyā is presented as a scientific technique that leads to liberation, one which utilizes breath mastery and the vocalization of mono-syllabic tones to invigorate and heal the body while gradually awakening consciousness.

In this session, we will journey back to the 6th century and the founding of the Tantrik tradition. Our guide is the 10th chapter of the Kālottara Tantra, called the ‘Nādī Chakra Teaching.’ Students will be led through my pdf translation of this chapter, critically edited from seven manuscripts and presented here for the first time.

The Science of Tantrik Pranayama:
Part III
In Part III, we continue our study of the original Prānāyāma practice of Hatha Yoga, as originally prescribed in the earliest Tantras (5th-6th centuries). This Kundalinī-based sequence, was later obscured in the hatha-yoga texts which have come down to us. Our source is the tenth and eleventh chapters of the unpublished 'Beyond Time' (Kālottara) Tantra (my translation). Click here to learn more.
