Master Kriya Yoge Imram in Anna Stukkert
Kako bi razložili bistvo svoje prakse nekomu, ki še nikoli ni slišal za jogo in meditacijo?
Kriya joga je sveta znanost samouresničenja Boga – pot, ki vodi k osvoboditvi, najvišjim ravnem zavesti in večnemu blaženstvu. Ponuja izjemno priložnost, da prodremo v globine svoje prave narave in se ponovno povežemo z Božanskim Izvorom.
Cilj te prakse ni iskanje materialnih nagrad, temveč doseganje notranje popolnosti in blaženosti. S pomočjo Kriye se um, srce in energija združijo v harmoničen tok, ki vodi k duhovni realizaciji. Ta pot zahteva iskrenost, potrpežljivost in neomajno predanost. Kot je dejal eden od učiteljev: Kriya je potovanje k Božanskemu, ki prebiva v vsakem izmed nas.
V preteklosti Kriya ni bila razdeljena na številne tehnike in discipline, kot jih poznamo danes. V sodobnem svetu se ljudem ponuja širok spekter praks: hatha joga, prana joga, raja joga in druge. Kriya pa velja za vrh joge – tako v tehničnem kot filozofskem smislu. Predstavlja globoko razumevanje joge Visoke poti.
To je bilo prvotno razumevanje, vendar so se skozi čas starodavni nauki zabrisali. Prav Babaji, spoštovani himalajski modrec, je to prakso ponovno obudil in jo predstavil v novi, sodobnemu človeku dostopnejši obliki.
»Kriya joga je preprosta psihofiziološka metoda, s katero se človeška kri razogljiči in ponovno napolni s kisikom. Atomi tega dodatnega kisika se pretvorijo v življenjsko energijo, ki pomlajuje možgane in hrbtenične centre. Z zaustavitvijo kopičenja venske krvi jogi zmanjša ali prepreči propadanje tkiv. Napredni jogi svoje celice pretvori v čisto energijo. Elija, Jezus, Kabir in drugi preroki so bili mojstri Kriye ali podobnih tehnik, s katerimi so lahko po svoji volji materializirali ali dematerializirali telo.«
Kriya je pot k osvoboditvi – način, kako se osvoboditi matrice, v kateri smo ujeti. Vsi preroki, ki so hodili po Zemlji, so prakticirali Kriyo – in bilo jih je veliko. Ta metoda odpira vrata prebujanju neštetih vzvišenih lastnosti, ki jih je Stvarnik položil v naše duše. Božanske »zakladnice« v nas – čakre oziroma hrbtenični centri – nosijo najgloblje znanje o Bogu in Vesolju.
Z uporabo specializiranih tehnik, ki temeljijo na znanstveni koncentraciji in dihanju, ustvarjamo idealne pogoje za usmerjanje močne energije proti hrbtenici in živčnim centrom ter prebujanje zavesti na celični ravni. Ko se ta energija začne dvigovati navzgor, se sprosti prana – skupaj z življenjsko silo tudi Božanska modrost, ki jo ta energija nosi. Tisti, ki se tej resnici odprejo, doživijo globoko preobrazbo. Živčne poti se obnovijo, možgani pridobijo nove lastnosti, aktivirajo se talenti in sposobnosti, ki nam jih je podarilo Božansko. Ko postajamo modrejši, začnemo odkrivati višje vidike svojega pravega jaza in prebujati zavest v vedno bolj vzvišena stanja.
Pomembno je razumeti, da je to pot, po kateri bi morali hoditi vsi, vendar smo to zavedanje izgubili, ker je naš um navezan na zunanje motnje sveta. Znanost Kriye nam pomaga obrniti pozornost navznoter in ponovno odkriti svojo resnično naravo.
Katere lastnosti ali notranja stanja lahko razvijemo z redno prakso?
Tehnike Kriye razkrivajo vire navdiha, prinašajo jasnost in odgovore, čistijo um, krepijo podaljšano hrbtenjačo (medulla oblongata) in odpirajo Tretje oko. Magnetizirajo kri, zmanjšujejo odvisnost od dihanja in hrane ter omogočajo črpanje vitalnosti iz Kozmične energije in Božje Besede. Z vadbo se življenjski tok usmerja vzdolž hrbtenice, kar širi zaznavanje Boga in fizične celice preoblikuje v duhovni vir.
Kriya ni zgolj dihalna tehnika, temveč znanost zavestnega usmerjanja prane. Številne učence je vodila tako k duhovnemu kot moralnemu razvoju. Učinkovitost prakse je odvisna od odločnosti posameznika – bolj kot je praksa redna, hitreje se odvija notranja rast. Ena ura Kriya meditacije lahko prinese več koristi kot 24 ur običajne meditacije.
Ob pravilni praksi Kriya prečiščuje telo in širi zavest, odpira dostop do notranjega sveta ter omogoča, da zaznavanje in občutenje vznikneta od znotraj. Ta proces pospešuje razvoj telesa, uma in duše ter podpira modrost in samouresničitev v enem samem življenju – kar bi sicer lahko zahtevalo mnogo inkarnacij.
Naravni proces človeškega razvoja sledi ritmu vrtenja Zemlje, vendar Kriya prakse z aktivacijo notranjega gibanja energije vzdolž hrbtenice ta proces pospešujejo. Ta notranji duhovni obrat omogoča hitrejšo evolucijo in podpira doseganje Kozmične zavesti v enem samem življenju.
En sam popoln cikel življenjske sile vzdolž hrbtenice ustreza eni sončni evoluciji. Že en tak cikel lahko prinese opazne spremembe v telesu in umu, pospeši rast ter posameznika približa božanskemu stanju, če so zagotovljeni ustrezno zdravje in prehrana.
Več pa si lahko ogledate na videu:
Če bi človeštvu, ki živi v hitrem in tesnobnem svetu, lahko zapustili eno samo sporočilo – katero bi bilo to?
Glavno sporočilo za sodobnega človeka je mogoče strniti v en sam stavek, ki ga Imram pogosto ponavlja v različnih oblikah:
»Sveta ne moreš spremeniti, lahko pa spremeniš frekvenco energije, ki jo oddajaš – in zunanja resničnost se bo temu prilagodila.«
To sporočilo lahko povzamemo v pet ključnih točk.
1. »Ne bodi posledica – postani vzrok.«
V svetu, polnem tesnobe, ljudje pogosto mehanično reagirajo na dogodke – prestrašeni ob novicah ali jezni v prometu. To je oblika suženjstva.
Sporočilo: Med dogodkom (dražljajem) in tvojim odzivom obstaja prostor – in v tem prostoru leži tvoja svoboda. Če ohraniš notranjo mirnost, te zunanji viharji ne morejo uničiti. Tesnoba je v svojem bistvu izguba nadzora nad pozornostjo.
2. »Pozornost je tvoja najdragocenejša valuta.«
V hitrem svetu družbenih omrežij je pozornost nenehno razpršena. To imenujem »higiena zavesti«.
Sporočilo: Kamor gre tvoja pozornost, tja teče tudi tvoja božanska energija – prana. Če se osredotočaš na vojne, krize in težave, hraniš te egregorje in izčrpavaš sebe.
Nasvet: »Pripelji pozornost nazaj domov.« Zberi jo v telesu, v hrbtenici in možganih. Ne razdajaj se svetu nezavedno – to je nespoštovanje do Duha.
3. »Visoka vibracija (Ljubezen) je tvoja zaščita, ne sentimentalnost.«
Strah deluje na nizkih frekvencah; je težka vibracija. Ljubezen deluje na izjemno visokih frekvencah.
Sporočilo: Ko živiš v strahu, postaneš ranljiv za bolezni in manipulacijo. Visoke vibracije – radost, hvaležnost in ljubezen – te naredijo nedostopnega za negativnost. Ta preprosto zdrsne mimo tebe.
Praktično: Ljubezen ni zgolj čustvo, usmerjeno k nekomu – je stanje zavesti. Oddajaj prijaznost kot sonce, ki sije za vse, in tvoja resničnost se bo spremenila.
4. »Telo je Božja biološka posoda.«
V svetu, kjer se telo pogosto uporablja le za užitek ali delo, poudarjam, da je človeško telo božanska stvaritev s svetim pomenom.
Sporočilo: Mentalni mir ni mogoč, če je telo obremenjeno s toksini ali če je hormonski sistem v neravnovesju. Tesnoba je pogosto posledica kemije – strupov v telesu ali slabe prehrane.
Poziv k dejanju: Očisti telo, pij več vode ter energiziraj hrbtenico in celotno telo, ki predstavlja Božji tempelj.
Ko sta levi (lunarni, pomirjujoči) in desni (sončni, aktivirajoči) kanal uravnotežena in energija teče skozi osrednji kanal Sušumno, tesnoba izgine in pojavi se globok notranji mir.
5. »Ni se ti treba muditi – ti si že Večen.«
To je moj odgovor na razširjen strah pred tem, da čas prehitro mineva.
Sporočilo: Velik del sodobne tesnobe izhaja iz strahu, da ne bomo imeli dovolj časa za vse. Smo večna bitja, ki pridejo na svet po izkušnje in nato odidejo. Smrti v resnici ni – to, kar imenujemo smrt, je le sprememba dimenzije.
Paradoksalno, ko notranja naglica izgine, se zdi, da se čas razširi, za doseganje ciljev pa je potrebnega manj napora. To načelo imenujemo »dejanje skozi nedelovanje«.
Na kratko – moje zdravilo za tesnobo je to:
Zapri oči. Usmeri pozornost v središče volje, v središče čiste zavesti med obrvmi. Opazuj dihanje in se nasmehni svetu, oddajaj Svetlobo in Ljubezen. Zavedaj se, da nisi svoje misli ali težave. Ti si Atman – Priča, večno Višje Jastvo. Nič mu ne more škodovati, saj je to sam Bog.
Kriya Yoga je preprosta psihofiziološka metoda, s katero se človeška kri razogljiči in ponovno nasiči s kisikom. Atomi dodatnega kisika se pretvorijo v življenjski tok, ki pomlajuje možgane in hrbtenične centre. Z zaustavitvijo kopičenja venske krvi jogi zmanjša ali celo prepreči razpadanje tkiv. Napredni jogi preoblikujejo svoje celice v čisto energijo. Elija, Jezus, Kabir in drugi preroki so bili mojstri Kriye ali sorodnih tehnik, s katerimi so lahko svoje telo po volji materializirali ali dematerializirali.
Kriya je pot osvoboditve – način, kako se izviti iz matrice, v katero smo ujeti. Vsi preroki, ki so hodili po Zemlji, so poznali to znanje. Ta metoda odpira vrata prebujanju neštetih vzvišenih lastnosti, ki jih je Stvarnik položil v naše duše.
Božanske »shrambe« v nas – znane kot čakre ali hrbtenični centri – nosijo najgloblje znanje o Bogu in Vesolju. S pomočjo specializiranih tehnik, ki temeljijo na znanstveni koncentraciji in dihalnih procesih, ustvarimo idealne pogoje za usmerjanje močne energije vzdolž hrbtenice in živčnih centrov ter za prebujanje zavesti na celični ravni.
Ko se ta energija začne dvigovati, se sprošča prana – življenjska sila, ki s seboj prinaša tudi Božansko modrost. Tisti, ki se tej resnici odprejo, doživijo globoko preobrazbo. Nevronske poti se obnovijo, možgani pridobijo nove lastnosti, prebudijo se talenti in sposobnosti, ki so nam bile dane z božanskim načrtom.
Sčasoma človek začne odkrivati višje razsežnosti lastnega bistva in zavest se odpira vedno bolj vzvišenim stanjem. Pomembno je razumeti, da je ta pot namenjena vsem – vendar smo nanjo pozabili, ker je naš um ujet v motnje zunanjega sveta. Znanost Kriye nam pomaga obrniti pozornost navznoter in ponovno odkriti, kdo v resnici smo.

How would you explain the essence of your practice to someone who has never heard of yoga and meditation before?
Kriya Yoga is a holy science of God-realisation, a path that leads to liberation and to the highest realms of consciousness and eternal joy. It presents a remarkable opportunity to penetrate the depths of one’s true nature and reconnect with the Divine Source. The aim of this practice is not the pursuit of material rewards but the achievement of inner perfection and bliss. Through Kriya, one integrates the mind, heart, and energy into a harmonious flow that leads to spiritual realisation. To walk this path requires sincerity, patience, and unwavering devotion. As one Teacher aptly put it, Kriya is a journey towards the Divine that resides within us all.
In the past, Kriya was not divided into the many techniques and disciplines we see today. In the modern world, people are presented with a vast array of practices: hatha yoga, prana yoga, raja yoga, and so on. Kriya, however, is regarded as the pinnacle of yoga—both in its technical and philosophical aspects. It represents a profound understanding of Yoga of the High Path. This was the original view, yet over time, the ancient teachings became obscured. It was Babaji, a revered Himalayan sage, who revived this practice, presenting it in a new, more accessible form.
“Kriya Yoga is a simple, psychophysiological method by which the human blood is decarbonised and recharged with oxygen. The atoms of this extra oxygen are transmuted into life current to rejuvenate the brain and spinal centres. By stopping the accumulation of venous blood, the yogi is able to lessen or prevent the decay of tissues. The advanced yogi transmutes his cells into pure energy. Elijah, Jesus, Kabir and other prophets were past masters in the use of Kriya or a similar technique, by which they caused their bodies to materialise or dematerialise at will”.
Kriya is a path to liberation, a way to break free from the matrix we are caught in. All the prophets who have walked this Earth practised Kriya—and there were many of them. This method opens the door to the awakening of the countless sublime qualities embedded in our souls by the Creator. The divine “repositories” within us—what we call chakras or spinal centres—hold the most profound Knowledge of God and the Universe.
By applying specialised techniques rooted in scientific concentration and breathwork, we create the ideal conditions for directing potent energy towards the spine and nerve centres, awakening consciousness at the cellular level. As this energy flows and rises upwards, prana is released, and with it comes not only the vital life force but also the Divine Wisdom that this energy carries. Those who awaken to this truth undergo a profound transformation. The neural pathways are revitalised, and the brain takes on new qualities, activating talents and faculties granted to us by the Divine. As one becomes wiser, they begin to uncover the higher aspects of their true selves, awakening consciousness to ever more elevated states. It is crucial to understand that this path is one that we are all meant to follow, but we have lost this awareness because our minds are attached to the distractions of the external world. The science of Kriya helps us turn our attention inward, allowing us to rediscover our true nature.
What qualities or inner states can one cultivate through consistent practice? Please share your experience.
Kriya techniques reveal sources of inspiration, provide clarity and answers, purify the mind, strengthen the medulla oblongata, and open the Third Eye. They magnetise the blood and reduce dependence on breathing and food, allowing one to draw vitality from Cosmic Energy and the Word of God. Through practice, the life current is channelled along the spine, expanding the perception of God and transforming the physical cells into a spiritual source. Kriya is not merely a form of breathwork; it is a science of consciously directing prana. It has guided many students towards both spiritual and moral development. The effectiveness of the practice depends on one’s determination—the more consistently one practises, the faster inner growth unfolds. One hour of Kriya meditation can bring greater benefit than 24 hours of ordinary meditation. When practised correctly, Kriya refines the body and expands consciousness, opening access to the inner world and enabling perception and feeling to arise from within. This process accelerates the development of body, mind, and soul, supporting the cultivation of wisdom and self-realisation within a single lifetime—something that might otherwise require many incarnations.
The natural process of human development follows the rhythm of the Earth’s rotation, but Kriya practices, by activating the inner movement of energy along the spine, help to accelerate this process. This inner spiritual rotation allows us to evolve more rapidly and supports the attainment of Cosmic Consciousness within one lifetime.
One complete cycle of the life force moving along the spine corresponds to a single solar evolution. Even one such cycle can bring noticeable changes to the body and mind, accelerating growth and drawing one closer to a divine state, provided proper health and nutrition are maintained.
If you could leave a single message for humanity living in this fast-paced, anxiety-filled world, what would it be?
The main message for our contemporaries can be expressed in a single sentence, repeated by Imram in different ways: “You cannot change the world, but you can change the frequency of the energy you radiate— and outer reality will adjust accordingly.”
For those caught in chaos, anxiety, and constant haste, this philosophy opens a clear path towards salvation. The message can be distilled into five key points.
1. “Stop being a consequence—become the cause.”
In a world filled with anxiety, people tend to react mechanically to events: becoming frightened by the news or angry when cut up on the road. It’s a form of slavery.
Message: Your task is to abandon automatic reactions. Between an event (the trigger) and your response, there is a gap—and within that gap lies your freedom. If you preserve inner stillness, external storms will not be able to destroy you. Anxiety is, in essence, a loss of control over one’s attention.
2. “Attention is your most precious currency.”
In a fast-paced world entangled in social media, attention is constantly scattered. I refer to this as the “hygiene of consciousness.”Message: Where your attention flows, your divine energy, your life force (prana), follows. If you dwell on wars, crises, and problems, you feed these egregores with your energy and drain yourself.
Tip: “Bring your attention back home.” Gather it within the body, in the spine, and in the brain. Do not give yourself away to the world unconsciously—this is a form of disrespect towards Spirit.
3. “A high vibrational frequency (Love) is your protection, not sentimentalism.”
Fear operates at low frequencies; it is a heavy vibration. Love operates at extremely high frequencies.
Message: When you live in fear and vibrate at a low frequency, you become vulnerable to illness and manipulation. High vibrations — joy, gratitude, and love — make you inaccessible to trouble and negativity. Negativity simply passes through you without taking root, because your vibrational frequency is different.
Practical aspect: Love is not merely an emotion directed at someone; it is a state of consciousness. Radiate kindness like the sun, which shines for everyone—and your reality will change.
4. “The body is God’s biological vessel.”
In a world where the body is often used solely for pleasure or labour, I continue to affirm that the human body is a divine creation with sacred value.Message: Mental stillness is impossible if the body is burdened with toxins or the hormonal system is imbalanced. Anxiety is often rooted in chemistry—toxins in the body or poor nutrition. Call to action: Cleanse your body, drink more water, and energise your spine and entire body, that forms the temple of God.
For example, when the left (calming, lunar energy) and right (activating, solar energy) channels are balanced and energy flows through the central Sushumna channel, anxiety dissolves and profound peace arises.
5. “There is no hurry—you are already Eternal.”
This is my response to the widespread fear of time passing too quickly.
Message: Much of modern anxiety is rooted in the fear of not having enough time to do everything. We are eternal beings who come into this world to gain experience and then depart. There is no death as such; what we call “death” is simply a change of dimension. Paradoxically, when inner haste disappears, time seems to expand, and far less effort is needed to accomplish what is necessary. This principle is known as “action through omission.”
In short, my remedy for anxiety is this:
“Close your eyes. Shift your attention to the centre of Willpower, the centre of Pure Consciousness, located between the eyebrows. Observe your breathing and smile at the world, sending out Light and Love. Realise that you are not your thoughts or your problems. You are Atman—the Witness, the eternal Higher Self. No harm can ever touch it, because it is God Himself!”
