Swami Kriyananda (J. Donald Walters) is one of the foremost proponents of yogic teachings in the world today. In 1948 at the age of twenty-two, he became a disciple of the Indian yoga master, Paramhansa Yogananda. He is one of a few remaining direct disciples of Yogananda active today.

At Yogananda’s request, Swami Kriyananda has devoted his life to lecturing and writing, helping others to experience the living presence of God within. He has taught on four continents in seven languages over the course of over 60 years. His teaching, audio and video recordings of his talks and music, and his many books translated into 28 languages have touched the lives of millions.

Swami Kriyananda has taken the ancient teachings of Raja Yoga and made them practical and immediately useful for people in every walk of life. His books and teachings on spiritualizing nearly every field of human endeavor include business life, leadership, education, the arts, community, and science. He has written extensive commentaries on the Bible and the Bhagavad Gita, both based on the teachings of Paramhansa Yogananda.

Swami Kriyananda is also known as the “father of the intentional communities movement,” which began in the United States in the late 1960s. Inspired by Yogananda’s dream of establishing spiritual communities, he founded in 1968 the first of what are now seven Ananda communities worldwide. They provide a supportive environment of “simple living and high thinking” where over 1,000 full-time residents live, work, and worship together.

Who I am...




I am a quantum artist who invokes consciousness and healing through dramatic art (catharsis: the process of releasing and thereby creating relief/healing from strong or repressed emotion, thus raising consciousness; originally through dramatic art). Further to the above I am a violinist, speaker, dancer, performer and presenter.






What I do...





As a quantum artist I use my knowledge and skills to help my audiences let go and release from pain and suffering, re-awaken their joyfulness, increase levels of consciousness and awaken knowledge of self as pure spirit.


I do this by performing as a violinist, dancer and speaker to inspire and motivate others in bringing about the above


I also compose/improvise my own music, record Cds/downloadable music/video and write metaphysical information and training courses for public interested in healing and consciousness.

How I do it...






I drop into the quantum field and use my skills and knowledge as a violinist, dancer, speaker and composer to put intense emotion and passion into the worlds of my audiences.. To accomplish this I also use my communication knowledge and skills of placing strongly focused attention with powerful intention in delivering the healing and increased consciousness that I desire to bring about.


I continually search for, study and apply knowledge to increase my own consciousness, and practice daily in this pursuit
