The Three Essentials of Kriya Yoga Meditation

Summary

, 13 min

The three essentials of Kriya Yoga meditation (freeze response, tranquil breath and roll-up of consciousness) and how HRV resonance, sitting very still and OM Japa in the chakras induce them. The roll-up is framed as consciousness falling back to its roots, leading to clarity (Dharana), absorption into space and non-dual states.
