First of all, it’s important to figure out what Kriya yoga is, to understand what you are going to practice, to know where you are headed and decide whether you need it or not. For that, you need to study literature and find information on this topic.
With regard to books, I advise you to start with “Autobiography of a Yogi” by Paramahansa Yogananda, or with “Holy Science” by Yukteswara Giri, or with some other book telling about Kriya Yoga. A lot of people were inspired by Marshall Govindan’s great literary work “Babaji and the 18 Siddha Kriya Yoga Tradition”.
Good literature makes it possible to connect with this teaching, but the real contact occurs when people come to a Seminar and receive knowledge exactly in the form in which it is given. At the Seminar, not just techniques are given – the work is done on very subtle levels, the structures of which need transformation.
Transformation and changes in life happen regardless of whether a person practices yoga or not. Nature itself forces us to go up, to ourselves, inward.
But when a person does yoga, especially Kriya, they must be ready for transformation. When you practice Kriya Yoga, as you receive the transformation, you understand these processes and agree with them, you have a sense of joy that something is happening.
Moreover, often people who have attended the Seminar get rid of heavy karma. Thanks to the Knowledge they receive, to their inner work at the Seminar, they open up, and then the Universe helps them get rid of the heaviness. That is, if you are striving for awareness, you should be understanding and patient.
