CHAPTER 4 - NITHYA KRIYAS🔗

Nithya Kriyas are a series of yogic healing processes revealed by Paramahamsa Nithyananda (www.nithyananda.org/nithya-kriyas). They are unique in that, while the knowledge and techniques are drawn from the most authentic and sacred yogic scriptures of India, the specific combinations are expressed from the personal experiences of Paramahamsa Nithyananda, from his personal research and development, with the aim of curing and providing preventive care for various physical and mental ailments. He had trained under powerful yogis and mystics right from childhood, and has been a practitioner of the mystical yogic sciences that have practically disappeared from modern yoga texts.

These Nithya Kriyas preserve and deliver the original yogic practices which are born out of millennia of research and development, the contribution of innumerable enlightened yogis who have dedicated their lives to enriching the world with this science. According to the teaching methods laid out by legendary yogis like Gorakhnath and Matsyendranath, the individual asanas and pranayama techniques are sacred and must not be tampered with, and the combinations of techniques required to produce the desired effect are to be received by the learner from his own personal guru (Hatha Yoga Pradipika). True to Vedic culture, these fathers of modern yoga have left the door wide open for the continuous updating of this ancient science.

There is something called energy flow which happens continuously in your body. This flow is through the 72,000 subtle energy channels called nadis. This is the energy circuit of the body. This circuit is governed by the kundalini energy. Kundalini energy is the immense potential energy present in every body that helps complete the energy circuit. It acts like a water pump.

Kundalini can be described as every individual's hotline to the infinite cosmic energy. Once awakened by appropriate yogic practices, and the guidance and grace of the guru, Kundalini showers a host of blessings on the practitioner, including a big boost in energy levels, physical well-being, the falling away of negative mental patterns, true inner fulfilment and a deep connection to the universal Source.

If there is a disturbance in some part of the energy flow at some part of the body, there is an impedance to the energy flow forward. That is when you start developing disease, disorders, and disturbances in the affected organs.

Nithya kriyas are powerful tools which help remove these energy blockages and restores the Life energy flow. When the body is aligned in certain postures during the kriyas, the energy block gets removed. The circuit, the "wiring", the "plumbing" gets properly aligned. Once the block is removed, kundalini energy gets pumped into the circuit during the kumbhaka part of the pranayama. Only through kumbhaka the energy gets pumped into the circuit. If the energy circuit is even aligned for a few seconds, and the energy is pumped in, you are free, you are out of the disorder or disease. When energy flow is re-established, the disease or disturbance is healed. It is like a plumbing system. It is like the drain pipe where the water once again gushes forth merrily when the blockage or disturbance in the pipe is removed.

These kriyas are not just ordinary asana, kumbhaka, pranayama. It is like different chemicals. Separately, they may take ten years to cure a disease or disturbance. Mixed properly in certain combinations, they remove the disease in short time.

Nithya Kriyas involve the combination of these components: -

The healing achieved by Nithya kriyas is permanent as it works on the cellular bio-memory level. It generates natural steroids and therefore has no negative side effects.

Besides the healing, the Nithya Kriyas have a powerful permanent effect on your very brain functioning. They awaken the non-mechanical parts of the brain. Most of our brain power is actually untapped; these untapped areas when activated, are responsible for the manifestation of many extraordinary powers. This is what we refer to here as the non-mechanical parts of the brain.

Certain parts of the brain are responsible for our day to day bodily functions like digestion, respiration, walking, sitting, etc. But this constitutes only a small percentage of the brain. This is what we refer to here as the mechanical parts of the brain.

During the kumbhakas, the energy reaches the brain awakening the non-mechanical parts of the brain. The body naturally experiences the peak conscious coherence, joy and bliss. .

Nithya Kriya is soundly anchored in the sacred yoga scriptures, including the legendary Patanjali Yoga Sutras, as well as the three classic texts that form the base of yoga - Hatha Yoga Pradipika, Gheranda Samhita and Shiva Samhita.

Patanjali Yoga Sutras is the foundational text of yoga, written by the father of yoga, the enlightened sage Patanjali. This esoteric yet highly practical text is based on Sankhya Yoga. It is said to date back to the 2nd century BC, although it is believed to be far more ancient. Patanjali Yoga Sutras emphasize the value of yoga as a lifestyle through ashtanga yoga (8-limbed yoga).

This is a classic 15th century Sanskrit Hatha Yoga text, written by Swami Svatmarama, a disciple of Swami Gorakhnath. The book is dedicated to Adinatha or Lord Shiva, who is said to have revealed the secrets of Hatha Yoga to his divine consort Devi Parvati. Hatha Yoga Pradipika contains four major upadesha as (teachings), which reveal the correct understanding and practice of asanas, pranayama, chakras, bandhas, kriyas, shakti, nadis, mudras and kundalini.

This is also a classic Sanskrit Hatha Yoga text. It is a practical yoga manual said to have been taught by the sage Gheranda to Chanda Kapali. Gheranda Samhita text has 7 chapters. It advocates a sevenfold yoga - shatkarma, asana, pranayama, mudra , pratyahara, dhyana, and samadhi with a chapter dealing with each one.

This is a classic Sanskrit text where Lord Shiva addresses Parvati his consort. There are 5 chapters which deal with yogic philosophy, techniques for liberation, kundalini, importance of the guru, pranayama, asanas, mudras, bandhas, and meditation. The book mentions 84 beneficial asanas but describes only four of them.

The other texts that Nithya Kriya draws from include the Kumbhaka Paddhati of Raghuvira, Trisikhibrahmanopanishad, Yogakundalay Upanishad, Yoga Chudamani Upanishad and Yoga Taravali, Joga Pradipika, Yogasana Mala Sachitra, among others.

1) “I have never seen something reduce my sugar level so rapidly. This is extraordinary!” says Ricardo Boreiki from Houston, Texas, USA. This 63 year-old man suffering from diabetes for 33 years experienced miraculous healing after using Nithya Kriya. Ricardo Boreiki says that he had a blood sugar level between 300 – 400 and using 45 units of insulin daily, and now his sugar level is steady at 85 and uses only 5 units of insulin in the mornings since he started practicing Nithya Kriya. You can watch his sharing of the miracle on the web link (between 4:30 - 6:30mins)

2) Parimala Paramanathan from Toronto, Canada – “I had diabetes for last 16 years, it was very high for past 3 years – more than 3 times the normal value. I attended the Diabetes kriya one-week workshop at Toronto Nithyananda Vedic temple. I was amazed, my sugar levels have come down to normal and my doctor has reduced my medication to half. My mind and body have improved!”

While extolling the benefits of a disciplined practice, yoga texts do not hesitate to declare that the results equivalent to twelve years of strenuous sadhana (spiritual discipline) can be granted by the guru in a moment to a disciple who is open to it. While theoretically, the entire kriya may be assembled and taught by anybody with sufficient knowledge of the yoga scriptures, the benefits of practicing the same kriya in the presence of a highly evolved being are simply indescribable and inestimable. This is especially so when participants are literally ‘open’ to the technique by the highly revered process of deeksha or initiation by the Master.

The highly scientific yet mystical experience of deeksha can be explained to some extent by the principle of resonance. Just as a bowl of water will begin to hum when struck with a metal rod at the right frequency, an energy adept can subtly entrain the practitioner’s energy into higher spiritual frequencies by the sheer pressure of his own positive vibration. At such moments, the body and mind lose their natural resistance and awaken to their own highest possibility of health and well-being.
