Have You Sincerely and
Genuinely Considered:
- How far can discipline and personal effort
get you?
- What is Grace and is it absolutely necessary for Self-Knowledge?
- Is your Ego really so bad?
- Must I love everyone, or just do my duty?
- How can I keep love from diminishing into attachment or dissolving into anger
or indifference?
- Why is life so full of desire, aversion and fear?
- Is there ever a need for fear?
- How can I learn to use my willpower effectively to overcome my resistances?
- Is there a Higher Will for my life, and if so, how can I learn to connect
with it?
- Is what you can “see,” even
in meditation, ever the true Self? |

Babaji's Kriya Yoga Order of
Acharyas is now offering to initiated and non-initiated students
of Yoga, a course of lessons. Designed to answer such questions
as these, this course will not only deepen the understanding of
the principles and practices of Yoga, but will hasten the process
of Yoga.
In our pursuit of our Divine Self we must seek
for change in our human nature. But rather than trying to change
our nature, more often we merely attempt to reconcile our habits
of desire, aversion and fear. So dark elements along with light
continue to seek manifestation and arise in the context of our
life. The Grace Course provokes us to delve into our desires, aversions
and fears in order to reveal to us our truth and falseness.
By learning the source of our repetitive thoughts,
endless desires and stifling aversions and fears, we become aware
of how the demands of the ego influence us negatively at all moments
in any situation. Instead of protecting us, the ego, which is really
quite fearful, is keeping us blocked from our true nature, our
true potential and our true work in the world. As ingrained habits
and instincts are probed, weaknesses are amplified. This process
is personal and profound and real work.
The primal strength of the ego’s desire
to exist is too strong to overcome without the support of Grace.
Grace is the only means by which vital motivations of the ego can
be replaced by higher consciousness from the Soul.

Grace is a force of nature
like the elements and like the elements is always present, whether
we acknowledge it or not. Grace is always available to anyone
who remains open to it. We must internally prepare to remain
open to Grace.
This course is designed
to widen your perspective of what your yogic practice truly must
become, a process of bringing
awareness into your thoughts, your actions and into your life.
It introduces the right use of will, which can direct the practice
of Yoga to benefit you personally, but in addition, can connect
you with a Higher Will, which works to widen you, so as to benefit
your family, friends and the world at large.
The practices included will incorporate the teachings
of Babaji's Kriya Yoga-Action with Awareness- into your daily life.
These teachings are drawn from the works of Babaji and the Siddhas,
Sri Aurobindo and the Mother. The total of these teachings reflect
the Yogic tradition of Babaji's Kriya Yoga.
If sincerely and genuinely approached,
this course of lessons will affect change at various levels of
your consciousness, as your awareness and love grows.
