Beloved friends,

It fills my heart with immense joy to share a message that I believe is crucial for our times. Recently, I had the privilege of speaking at the “One Heart One Earth Global Healing Summit 2025” and I wanted to take a moment to reflect on what we discussed and invite you deeper into this beautiful journey.

You can watch the full video below:

My own path began with a profound calling. At 35, a vivid dream led me on a quest that ultimately brought me to the teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda and, in 1997, to my beloved master, Babaji, in the serene Himalayas. It was there that I was initiated into Kriya Yoga, a practice that has since become the very essence of my being and my mission.

The Power of Softness and the Sacred Body of Light

Kriya Yoga, at its heart, is a sacred breathing technique. It’s not about complex postures or strenuous exercises, but about a profound internal alchemy. With just five simple breaths, it works with our energy centers, our chakras, to gently calm the incessant chatter of the mind. This stillness, this spaciousness, allows us to connect with the “kingdom of light” within each of us. This inner light expands, merging with what I call the “cosmic ocean of peace,” transforming us into a “body of light.”

Babaji always emphasised the importance of softness, humility, and surrender. Think of a mother holding her baby – that gentle, unconditional embrace is the essence of this practice. It’s this feminine energy, this nurturing approach, that allows the “God glow” to radiate through us, influencing every action, every word, with divine grace.

My World Peace Mission

In 2003, Babaji entrusted me with a profound mission: to bring these timeless teachings of Kriya Yoga to the West and assist in the collective raising of human consciousness. It is a journey of immense love and dedication.

I wholeheartedly encourage you to:

• Listen to your inner whispers: Your dreams and inspirations are powerful guides.
• Embrace the present moment: Don’t rush through life; savor each breath.
• Nurture your inner light: Tend to it daily, as you would a precious plant.
• See challenges as blessings: They often appear during our most sacred journeys.
• Practice conscious breathing: It calms the mind and opens the heart.
• Let go of worries and desires: Focus on the beauty of now.
• Live from a place of unconditional love, kindness, and service.

Join the World Peace Mission

I warmly invite you to join our free Kriya Yoga group on Thursday evenings (English time). This is a wonderful opportunity to learn the Kriya breaths directly and begin cultivating your own radiant light body. Strengthening this inner light is not only vital for our peace now but also prepares us for a conscious transition into greater cosmic awareness. My deepest wish for you is to awaken, enlighten, and realize the vast consciousness that lies within, leading to a life filled with profound peace and true self-realisation.

Come, let us walk this luminous path together.

With love and blessings,
Swami Aliananda Paramahansa
