This episode covers on the start of chapter 26 to:  
“...because of priestly secrecy and man’s indifference, the sacred lore gradually became inaccessible”. 

Summary: 
We explore the science and metaphysics of Kriya Yoga as taught in this beautiful chapter and other of Paramahansa Yogananda’s writings, discussing its origins, techniques, and historical connections to various spiritual traditions. We examined scientific explanations of Kriya Yoga's effects on the body and mind, including its role in oxygenation and the transformation of breath into life force.  We also review Guruji’s references and exploration of ancient spiritual techniques, their historical lineage, and the connection between different civilizations and spiritual practices throughout the yugas.
