Kriya Yoga Institute - Welcome Letter, 2 of 6

Dear Divine Kriyavan,

We salute the Divine within you.

“For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.”
Matthew, 18:20, Holy Bible, ESV

To help quicken you on your spiritual path and to refresh your memory regarding the technique, you will
benefit by attending guided group meditation at your local center as frequently as you can and know
that all are uplifted by the law of multiplication. As you continue with your practice of Kriya Yoga, a
scientific meditation technique which gives all-round development to body, mind, intellect and soul,
please try to practice the technique as taught in the class following your initiation.

“Good company will make you good, bad company will make you bad. Keep good company”.
Paramahamsa Hariharananda

“Do good, Be good.” Paramahamsa Prajanananda

Gurudev would encourage us to remember the linage of gurus when we sit for meditation and also
throughout the day by inwardly communicating with them or simply remembering them during our daily
lives. This is “keeping good company”. Additionally, many disciples like to “keep good company” by
attending group meditation on a regular basis. Feeling the support and enjoyment of sharing with
spiritually like-minded people, may help keep you motivated with your personal meditation practice.

Look in your welcome packet for the Masters’ pictures and names. Additionally, here is a link to the
