The Biophysics of Kriya Yoga

Kriya Yoga is a science. This book does not teach or reveal the techniques of Kriya Yoga, as taught by Paramahansa Yogananda, Self-Realization Fellowship, and YSS of India. Instead, it explains how the meditation techniques modify the biophysics of the body, altering the paths of Life Force currents in the body and creating specific biological conditions that allow one to “be as if asleep in the body, while highly conscious and utterly focused.” This state allows one to attain deep inner stillness, even unto the breathless state, changes in the causal self, and awareness of one’s relationship with the Divine.

SRF authorities have approved Dr. Hadlock’s use of the many quotes of Yogananda found in this book.
Dr. Hadlock, a devotee of Yogananda since 1977, a scholar of ancient Vedic and ancient Chinese medicine writings, a lifelong lover of modern physics, and a professor of Chinese medicine for thirty years (now retired), has been directed in her decades of meditation to a clear understanding of how the techniques of Kriya Yoga work: the science and biophysics behind them. This information can serve to increase the enthusiasm and depth of a devotee’s meditation, as well as answer many, many questions of spiritual seekers of every faith.

Practitioners of Kriya Yoga, as well as non-practitioners, have found this information inspirational, as well as serving to illuminate spiritual and scriptural writings dating back thousands of years. As we move into a higher age, spiritual truths need no longer be baffling or obscure. As pointed out by Paramahansa Yogananda in his Whispers from Eternity, “Through Thy grace, the sudden shafts of wisdom will dispel error accumulations of countless centuries.”
