Kriya Yoga and the Ancient Science of Meditation

Bikram Yoga is an offshoot of the Kriya Yoga lineage. Bikram’s guru, Bishnu Ghosh, was trained at the Ranchi School for Boys which was founded by his older brother, Paramahansa Yogananda, author of “Autobiography of a Yogi.” Paramahansa Yogananda was an early and major contributor to the introduction of hatha yoga to the West. You can read more about Bikram’s lineage in this Wikipedia article.
The current lineage master of Kriya Yoga, Paramahamsa Prajnanananda is making his first visit to Atlanta this weekend and will be holding two public lectures.
