Total Consciousness

Eight Stages: Hostess Lisa Winton and Swami Jayananda will talk about Kriya Yoga as Union with the Divine; “the eight essential stages of Kriya Yoga” are a complete holistic health management system that translate into a path of action, a path of knowledge, and a path of devotion. These lifestyle strategies are designed to initiate a process in physiological, psychological/spiritual development that unfolds in three phases: prepersonal or unconscious awareness, personal or self-conscious awareness and transpersonal or super-conscious awareness. Total Consciousness is the goal of Yoga.”. Join the Kriya Yoga Spiritual Advance get the Light in your soul and unlock you hidden potential.
