Chapter One

TEACHINGS

1. I humbly bow to Karunavatar Paramahansa Hariharananda, Master of

Kriya Yoga, my Guru, and try to summarize his eternal teachings, as I
understand them, in this auspicious work.

2. On a cool Sunday of February of 1999 in Miami, Florida, during my

initiation in Kriya Yoga, the Mahayogi Swami Hariharananda, better
known as Baba by his disciples, presided over a meditation session
consisting of many devotees. There, in erect posture despite his
advanced age, he knocked hard with his right hand several times on
the top of his cranium, asking his audience to keep attention in the
fontanel.

3. The Almighty Father, Parambrahma, is pulling the breath hiding

inside each of us in the top of the cranium. The body dies and it is
insentient without the breath. Search Him in the fontanel through the
shortest breath.

4. We do not know how many breaths we have left. Time is precious

and should not to be wasted, but used to know our real nature,
to know God.

5. The extrovert stage makes us forget this, our real nature, Mother
Nature, the Soul.

6. Constant extrovert stage is to be avoided like poison since it is a form

of madness. Being alluring like sweetmeats, it becomes the wasteland
of the Soul.

7. The Self (Atman) must be sought in every activity by meditation and

other practical means. This is good culture, soul culture.

8. Trouble is not for trouble, but for God-realization. Everything, good or

bad, is Guru (Teacher) and comes from the Almighty Father.
 2

9. Theory will take a devotee outside while practice will take him inside.
Theory makes a man restless and selfish. Practice liberates him from
his ego, adding inner peace. An ounce of practice is worth a ton of
theories.

10. By soul culture the body is felt divine, and happiness ensues.
Practice to see the presence of God in every breath.

11. The physical body now understood for what it is, a part of the
universe, we go about our daily affairs knowing we are the
living power of God.

12. In the soul-fire of new-gained wisdom, impurities, ignorance, and evil

tendencies disappear and in their place shine the opposite qualities.

13. The Jiva (Human) is composed of three bodies: A or Causal body

which essence is Sound; U or Astral Body which essence is
Vibration; and M, the Gross body which essence is Light. All three
form the imperishable AUM sound.

14. Whosoever hears this from the honey lips of dear Swamiji, Baba
Hariharananda, will have his doubts cleared and his path set.

Gita, the Science of Kriya Yoga, as composed by Kriyavan Alfredo
Delregato.

Chapter Two

ON BRAHMA-JNANA

1. Paramahansa Hariharananda, the son of Haripada and Navinkali, of

the great lineage of Kriya Yoga of Mahavatar Babaji Maharaj. The last
living realized disciple of Swami Shriyukteshwar.

2. Self-realization means the knowledge of ones own Self and its

identity with Brahman, or God.

3. The Atman or Soul is the immortal part of a human being, beyond

body and mind, beyond time, space and causation.

4. Two main powerful forces act upon man: a centrifugal or extroverted

force and a centripetal or introverted force. The former force attracts
man towards the external self, engrossing him in illusion, delusion
and error; the latter force attracts man towards the eternal Self. The
centrifugal force is merely a different manifestation of the centripetal
force, the Atman (Self).

5. Among all creatures, only man can avert the power of the centrifugal
force through meditation.

6. Brahman is the only reality, the unqualified Absolute. The world is

ultimately illusory, and the Atman or individual Soul is not different
from Brahman.

7. Brahman and Atman being identical, the world is the creation of

Maya. This Maya is Gods cosmic play or Lila. Due to inherent
ignorance (Avidya), the embodied Soul imagines itself to be different
from Brahman. Whether Lila is taken as Maya, or to include the idea
of Maya and also exceed it, the result does not change the illusory
character of the world.

8. The realization of this knowledge, or Brahma-Jnana, allows for

freedom from the cycle of birth and death.
 4

9. This highest goal or freedom can be attained through the practice of

the scientific method of Kriya Yoga.

This is the Second Chapter named On Brahma-Jnana of Shri

Hariharananda Gita, the Science of Kriya Yoga, as composed by
Kriyavan Alfredo Delregato.

Chapter Three

THE SHORTEST BREATH

1. This chapter entertains the importance of the shortest breath in the

practice of Kriya Yoga.

2. Fifty are the different types of breath.

Say Yogic scriptures, one for every state,
Of mind; one for calmness another for stress,
Each type affects the mood it creates.

3. Fifty, as the Sanskrit alphabet letters:

The Bijas Ham, Ah, Aung, Oung, OngG
These seed-syllables like fifty feathers,
All an aggregation of the seed-syllable Om.

4. Fifty the lotus petals when summed add up,

Of the seven chakras from south to north,
Only one the Udana air that your mind stops
From its aimless wandering back and forth.

5. By the number of fingers ahead of the nose,

The force of the breath can be measured.
Udana air looks as if the breath is so close,
It stays inside the nostrils with pleasure.

6. Fix your attention in the Atom-Point,

Three inches deep within the brain; third eye
Focused in this empty inner space joint,
The state where no thoughts abide.

7. The cave of Brahman between the glands

Pituitary and Pineal, the third ventricle is
Of the human brain, the Kingdom Grand,
The etheric seat of soul Krishna and bliss.
 6

8. The Pituitary at one end is the positive pole,

At the other end the Pineal the opposite one.
Poles of Self-Knowledge as aim are the goal,
Lunar/Solar, Rada/Krishna, Woman/Man.

9. The shortest breath allows the Divine Sound

To be heard, from the Atom-Point emanating.
This point is beyond perception; the ground
That activates the world that He is creating.

10. Let your breath grow feeble, very feeble,

In deep surrender, sincere love, feebler still.
Enter Samadhi, no thoughts, good or evil,
True singled-minded meditation at will.

11. Oh, Udana air spiritual breath of ether!

Shortest breath for God-Realization!
Love thy breath, thy maker and His Theater,
While He pulls it up in elation.

12. Mantra Supreme, Divine Sound, heard like

Bees, kettle, cymbal, gong, air, bell, sea.
It keeps away thoughts creating a dike,
Around the one thought worthy of He.

13. Mantra Supreme is the shortest breath too.

Along the nostril touches the Pituitary gland,
Up to the Fontanel saying: You, You, You.
Extreme surrender to His almighty plan.

14. Use also the shortest breath to revert back

To the state of calmness when outraged,
Or enraptured by any bad mood or when sad,
Or after forgetting the attention in the fontanel.

15. Oh Shortest Breath taught by the Eternal Father!

Swami Parambrahma, God, the only Real Substance,
Sat, to Vivasvan who taught it to Manu who rather
Taught it then to worthy Ikshwaku at a glance.
 7

16. Revived in 1861 by Mahavatar Babaji Maharaj

Who chose the great master Shyama Charan
Lahiri Mahasaya, also known as the Yogiraj,
Best of men, father of five, householder grand.

17. To Shri Bhupendranath Sanyal the beautiful,

Householder too, himself alone a lighthouse,
Called Sanyal Mahasaya, qualities plentiful,
Among Yogis an example of which to be proud.

18. To Jnanavatar Swami Shriyukteshwar a man,

A real man, astrologer, sannyasi, God-blessed.
A visionary directed by Babaji for the specific plan
Of disseminating Yoga knowledge to the West.

19. Through Premavatar Swami Yoganandaji of

Autobiography of a Yogi worldwide fame,
Who Shyama Charan as a babe predicted off
To far away lands of the American continent.

20. To Swami Satyananda, Yoganandajis friend

In childhood and later age. Humble giant of
Patience with a face of goodness and quiet mien,
Sadhu of innumerable abilities, a man of love.

21. Bhupendranath, Shriyukteshwarji, Yoganandaji,

Satyanandaji, all of them, to Karunavatar,
Brahmachari Robinarayan, Swami Hariharanandaji,
At 93 now, a Bengali in Miami from India afar.

22. The Master of the Shortest Breath spell.

Of the breath that the two worlds unites.
The advocate of attention in the fontanel,
Guruji of many followers and many lights.
 8

23. The King of Tapas, for long a Mouna monk.

Of compassionate eyes and beautiful face.
Baba for us, in his lips always a song,
Praising the Almighty in all His ways.

24. To Swami Vidyadhishanandaji, former PhD

In neuroscience, scientist also of Yoga
Who imparted Diksha to me, to let me free
Of this Samsara and the snares of Bhoga.

25. To a humble Yogi, one of the few,

Neither better nor worse than you.
At a given point looking for a clue,
As many others did before too.

Hariharananda Gita, the Science of Kriya Yoga, as composed by

Chapter Four

SWAMIJI

1. On a night of April, I humbly approached Swami Vidyadhishanandaji,

my spiritual teacher and great Sannyasi of Hariharananda line, with
several questions regarding the practice of Kriya Yoga.

First Question:

2. What is the most important thing a Kriyavan should do in his practice

of Kriya Yoga?

Second Question:

3. Why is keeping the tongue rolled up so important for a Kriyavan?

Third Question:

4. Why is attendance to a Kriya Yoga retreat important?

Fourth Question:

5. What is the best measure of our advance on the spiritual path? Is the
decrease in the number of thoughts a good indication?

Fifth Question:

6. Can well-rooted Samskaras be totally eradicated through the practice

of Kriya Yoga?

Sixth Question:

7. Is our beloved Gurudev a Sthitaprajna?

Seventh Question:
 10

8. What is the best company for a Kriyavan?

Answer to the First Question:

9. Practice with same love as in eating, showering, sleeping and look

at the practice of techniques as a separate chore.

Answer to the Second Question:

10. The practice of the tongue rolled up keeps inner awareness and
subjugates urges of excessive eating and speaking; increases
salivation and keeps blood pressure low.

Answer to the Third Question:

11. Attendance to a Kriya Yoga retreat allows the seeker to delve

deeper through constant alertness and get glimpses of ones
blissful Self by applying the noble teachings thus reinforcing the
practice.

Answer to the Fourth Question:

12. A decrease in the number of thoughts is a very good sign. More joy,
less agitation, less anger, less judgement of others are all tangible
sings of progress.

Answer to the Fifth Question:

13. Yes, the practice of Kriya Yoga can eradicate well-rooted Samskaras.

Answer to the Sixth Question:

14. Sthitaprajna surely the steady wisdom state.

Answer to the Seventh Question:

15. Others who practice meditation or someone spiritual who values

meditation as an integral part of life. Calm people who cultivate
patience, kindness, sweetness, and forgiveness.

Science of Kriya Yoga, as composed by Kriyavan Alfredo Delregato.

Chapter Five

THE DISCIPLE

1. This section records, for the joy of all, several conversations between
the author and Swami Sarveshwarananda Giri, a renunciant and
advanced disciple of Baba and a monk of his most auspicious
lineage.

Author:

2. Swamiji, can you, please, provide me with a mantra so I can

complement my practice of Kriya Yoga during times between
meditations? I would like to decrease the number of thoughts thus
increasing mental health and concentration.

SSG:

3. A great mantra is following the shortest breath to the fontanel. In

reaching the fontanel, offer oblations to the Almighty Father by
thinking You, You.

4. Mantra also is concentrating on the Divine Sound while in the midst of

a busy life. Whether by the agency of breath control or through
concentration on the Divine Sound thoughts are warded off.

Author:

5. Oh dear Sannyasi, pray enlighten me into the conditions of the mind

during Paravastha. I encounter difficulties to keep the state of
Paravastha during meditation.
 12

SSG:

6. Paravastha is the state without thoughts; there is no mind or

conditions of the mind in it since we are to go above the mind. Every
time a thought arises, you should kindly give it back to God. Practice
makes perfect.

Author:

7. Please kindly explain to me the concept of Chakras and what they

represent and why they are so important.

SSG:

8. The Chakras are centers of energy along the spinal cord. They are the
seven holy fires in the human body. These fires are the divine power
of God. At the bottom of the spine we encounter the Daksina Agni
Chakra, which is also called the earth center. This Chakra activates
our desire for wealth and money that is used to buy food.

9. Above is the Grhapati Agni Chakra around the sex organ that gives
desire for sex. This Chakra is also called the water center. A human
being is born from two drops of water.

10. The Vaishvanara Agni Chakra follows in ascending order at the

stomach level. This is the fire that digests the food releasing the
energy that supports the whole human body, and as such is closely
associated with the power of fire itself. Without this fire the body can
perish by lack of nourishment.

11. At the heart level we have a most important Chakra, the Ahavaniya
Agni, the emotional fire, passion, anger, pride, sleep, meditation, and
all qualities, good and bad, are located here. Purification of this
Chakra is of the essence for the spiritual aspirant. This Chakra is
also called the air center.

12. The religious and creative center is the Samidbhavanama Agni

Chakra, located at the neck level. Communications and problems
with it, and religious prejudices that had created many religious wars
 13

in the past are situated in this Chakra. This is also known as the
vacuum center.

13. Between the pituitary and the pineal glands, behind the midpoint of
the eyebrows we find the soul center; Brahma Agni Chakra. This is
the seat of the soul. From here the divine sound emanates.

14. The last Chakra is at the top of the cranium. This is the Visvarupa
Agni Chakra, the all-pervading fire of God, the union of the formless
and the body form, and from where the Heavenly Father is pulling the
breath.

15. We should conduct our lifes from this latter Chakra, keeping
ourselves always at or above the soul center. The seeker is to come
up from the lower Chakras through the practice of Kriya Yoga. From
vacuum came air, from air water, from the latter fire, and finally from
water condensation through fire earth. Reversing the order is the
objective at hand.

Author:

16. The Chandogya Upanishad extols meditation on Om, called the

Udghita (also known as Pranava). With practice, a Kriyavan develops
the ability to hear the Divine Sound, and can hear the Om sound while
engaged in work. Can this practice, of concentrating on the Divine
Sound while active, be considered meditation on Pranava (Udghita)?

SSG:

17. Pranava literally means humming. Udghita is the name of one of

the hymns found in the Sama Veda. Most of the hymns from the
Sama Veda come from the Rig Veda. Thus Om is the best of mantras
of all Vedas, of all Revelation. It is the Divine Sound heard by
Kriyavans engaged in effortless action. It starts as a meditation tool,
but ends as the Supreme Revelation itself: this Om vibrates all
creation into existence.

the Science of Kriya Yoga, as composed by Kriyavan Alfredo Delregato.

Chapter Six

GURUDEV

1. Hari, Om! With my mind absorbed in the Grace of my Guru. With the
constant remembrances of the gains obtained by the cleansing of my
mind as a result of his teachings. Introverted in deep gratitude while
facing with joy these unmistakable changes happening in my life.
Extreme silence surrounding my head. Purity. Bowing low to His
design; a bright future ahead. With the lotus feet of Gurudev resting
firm on my fontanel. With his honey smile scattering light in my
Shambavi Mudra. Vibrating at the unison with that energy: love.

2. As the master of the shortest breath, you are Vayu, the Wind God,
Father of Hanuman, carried on to the world by Garuda.

3. Lighthouse of Kriya Yoga Ashram in South Florida, dispeller of

doubts, sought by Kriyavans around the world. Adoration to thee!
Marching along life with the strength of Indra, the intellect of
Brihaspati, the feet of Vishnu.

4. Born for the enlightenment of others. A leader of the luminous path.

Always concerned for the welfare of mankind, of firm and clear glance
and steady wisdom like candlelight that does not flicker.

5. Of gracious and ever-blissful smile and compassionate look, of

gentlemanly deportment and steady character. A Sthitaprajna of vast
knowledge, you came to the world choosing the right parents at the
right time, as the Bhagavad Gita extols.

6. Sannyasi of the householder, always protecting the Kriyavans from

the onslaught of this Samsara. Continually directing us to remember
our divinity in the midst of a busy and alluring world.

7. Returning to us, for us, after drinking His nectar in Nirvikalpa

Samadhi. With firmness anchorage in Brahman, you are Brahman.
May I, Oh Guru, become an upholder of the Immortal! All Devas bring
offerings to you.
 15

Delregato.

Chapter Seven

A MOST AUSPICIOUS BIRTHDAY

1. On May 1999, a most auspicious day, many Kriyavans from around

the world gathered at the Mother Center in Homestead, near Miami, to
celebrate the 92nd birthday of Paramahansa Hariharananda.
Devotees, Babas Swamis, and his Yogacharyas attended the
celebration, which lasted for several days, in the last of which the
birthday ceremony took place.

2. Talking about his advanced age in front of the large audience, the
great Hariharananda said, If your food is not restricted, if your life is
not completely restricted, you can not do it.

3. Signaling to the spectators with his right hand, Baba added, Only
one or two here, I can see, I can tell them, who are they, but I should
not identify them, but I know them, who have real desire for God-
realization, life, breath is our life, without breath we are dead bodies,
so we are to remain here, and he knocked on his fontanel with his
left hand, continuing:

4. One breathGone short breathGone liberation. One short breathG

one love. One shortest breath. With the short breath you cannot get
sex mood. With the shortest breath you cannot get anger. Breath,
you are not inhaling, He is inhaling from above. What is the aim in
your life? Liberation, but many do not feel their life is liberation, they
are not here (again knocking on the fontanel). They are in money,
kriya, that is kriya. They are in sex, this is kriya. They are in food,
that is kriyaGWhat is your ambition? Joy, pleasure, peace, bliss, is it
not?GShortest breath, be very careful.
 16

5. Great is the hold of Maya! Powerful, for those who want to hear, are
the words of a pure man!

6. With great compassion in his voice, Guruji kept on teaching. This is

your birthday. You are just born. This is not my birthday, I am born
for your birthday, that you feel the Supreme Lord. Spiritual birthday,
one breath, short breath. Take a short breath, feel the heaviness in
the fontanel, take a short breath, feel the heaviness there. One
breath, shortest, simplest, very short. Perceive sound, light, vibration
on the top of your head. Hear sound:
uuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!

7. The Supreme is pervading your whole system, your whole body.

This is Kriya Yoga. He is the life, indwelling self of every human
being, He is the witness.

8. You are earning money, God. You are enjoying sexually, God. You
are eating food, God, everything is God. You are feeling anger, pride,
cruelty, God. You are feeling sweetness, kindness, lovingness, God.

9. Look at the top of my head and see white light, all around it, even on
my shoulders. I am seeing white light on the head of every person
here. Even the light is coming up. This is most important. If you
remain in the fontanel, then you hear the sound. These three things,
A, U, M, AUM. A is your causal body, will give you sound, Divine
sound. U is your astral body, it will give pulsation, heaviness. I am
not seeing anybody, I am seeing light. This is most important.

Hariharananda Gita, the Science of Kriya Yoga, as composed by
Kriyavan Alfredo Delregato.

Chapter Eight

ALL GREAT 20th-CENTURY MEN

1. I bow to all Saints, Sages, and Gurus of all religions, from all ages, all
great men.

2. I bow to the Indian Sages and Savants of the 20th century who helped
revitalize the spiritual current of a needful and most material world.

3. I bow to my Master, the emissary of this great current into the 21st
century and beyond. The Master of Kriya Yoga that through the world
now spreads.

4. I bow to Shri Ramana Maharshi who pierced with his wisdom the hill
of Arunachala, whom Baba once met. Bhagavan Ramana said,
Solitude is to make the mind still. A great man indeed.

5. I bow to Swami Shivanandaji, founder of The Divine Life Society, friend

of Baba, Lion of Vairagya, a tower of a man. Swamiji said, Dear
brother, if you have no real sustained Vairagya, you will find no
improvement or progress in spirituality. Vows, austerities, energy
and meditation will leak out like water from a cracked pot. Be
careful.

6. I bow to Mahatma Gandhi, with whom Baba conversed as a youngster,

a great politician and the King of Ahimsa. One of the greatest of
Bharata indeed.

7. I bow to Rabindranath Tagore, the greatest poet of contemporary India,

and a Bengali like Baba.

8. I bow to Shri Aurobindo, the most eminent Self-realized Indian

philosopher since Shankaracharya, who went above and beyond the
concept of Maya, and once said: Man insists continually on making
God in his own image instead of seeking to make himself more in the
image of God.
 18

9. They were all great men, but I humbly state that for me greater is Guru
Shri Hariharanandaji.

This is the Eight Chapter named All Great 20th-Century Men of Shri
Hariharananda Gita, the Science of Kriya Yoga, as composed by
Kriyavan Alfredo Delregato.
 19

Chapter Nine

PARAMAHANSA PRAJNANANANDA

1. This chapter records certain teachings by the great Swami

Paramahansa Prajnanananda, selected by Baba among his disciples
as his successor.

2. A few days before Babas 93rd birthday, in a lecture delivered in a

Shiva-Vishnu Hindu Temple in South Florida, Swami Prajnananandaji
talked about temple worship and the meaning of Kriya Yoga, the
relationship between the allotted number of breaths a human being
has on a given life, the importance of breathing properly to increase
our life span, remembering that our life is to be used for God-
realization, and the relationship of Kriya Yoga to other Yoga
practices.

3. Temple worship is a good practice, but we should never forget that

our body is also a temple. It is in the temple of the body that constant
worship is to be effected. That is Kriya Yoga.

4. On breath control, Prajnananandaji stated that by decreasing the

number of breaths per minute, through the practice of Pranayama, life
span is increased.

5. A normal human being takes a whole breath every four seconds, with
two seconds each for inhalation and exhalation, what amounts to 15
breaths per minutes. A trained Yogi can elongate the whole breath to
approximately 15 seconds or four breaths per minute. Swamiji drew
close to the microphone and proceeded to demonstrate this breathing
technique by doing a breath including inhalation and exhalation for a
period close to 15 seconds.

6. This way of breathing is taught in Kriya Yoga.

7. The decrease in the number of breaths is not only a mathematical

relationship to life span, but indeed it affects life span by reflecting on
our health. The number of breaths dramatically increases when we
 20

are angry or stressed out. The calmness state brought about by the
practice of Kriya Yoga meditation and by the Yogic lifestyle
associated with this practice is conducive to better health, thus it
decreases illnesses increasing longevity.

8. A member of the audience asked a question about the relationship of

Kriya Yoga and other Yoga schools.

9. Kriya Yoga is the oldest Yoga and the synthesis of all religion
practices. The best-known treatise of Yoga being The Yoga Sutras of
Patanjali, the only system of Yoga mentioned in this treatise is Kriya
Yoga, which is mentioned twice.

10. The day after the above-mentioned lecture, Swamiji addressed an

audience in the Unity Church on the Bay, in Miami, Florida. This time
the topic was the relationship of breath, God, and the Bible.

11. God created man and woman from dust, as it is written in the Torah,
then He breathed into their nostrils the breath of life. Dust represents
the five elements that compose the gross material body: earth, water,
fire, air, and some space. God made man and woman in His image.

12. Master Jesus, in the New Testament, said that God is Spirit, and He
must be worshipped in Spirit. This word comes from the Latin
spiritus. There are many meanings to spiritus, such as alcohol
(spirits), strength, breath, and God. Consequently, God is
worshipped and remembered through breath control. Forgetting our
divinity is one of our most common mistakes.

13. Who is breathing? Who is pulling breath? God is.

14. Swamiji used an example from Luke in the New Testament. When
Jesus visited the house of Lazarus, the latters two sisters, Mary and
Martha, welcomed Jesus. Martha was busy all day with many chores
while Mary sat at the feet of the Master and listened to him. Both
sisters represent our nature, we are engrossed in the material world,
then we also want spirituality, but it is the latter, as Jesus said, which
will not be taken away from us.
 21

15. In the last example from the New Testament, Prajnananandaji

reminded us that Jesus stated that we should be intelligent like the
snake. This animal, accredited in the Torah as the tempter of Eve,
once a year sloughs off its skin and renews itself. Likewise, through
a technique like Kriya Yoga, we should become anew, forget our past
sins and strive for perfection. The snake, like the frog, the latter a
little animal, hibernate through winter, shunning food and exercising
great self-restrain and controlling the breath, a behavior from which
there is much to learn.

Hariharananda Gita, the Science of Kriya Yoga, as composed by
Kriyavan Alfredo Delregato.

Chapter Ten

CONCLUSION

1. On this final chapter the author thankfully summarizes the changes

brought into his life by the guidance of his Guru and the practice of
Kriya Yoga, incorporating along the way several conclusions for the
perusal of those interested in Kriya Yoga.

2. Kriya Yoga is definitely a scientific spiritual technique, which yields

mathematical results according to the intensity and sincerity of the
practice.

3. Kriya Yoga is the Yoga of the householder, as proven by the Father of

Kriya Yoga, Lahiri Mahasaya, who re-introduced the technique as
requested by Mahavatar Babaji Maharaj. Lahiri Baba fathered five
children and attained Self-realization while working and living in the
midst of a busy world.

4. Even though Kriya Yoga hinges on meditation, it also provides the

aspirant with a thorough Sadhana for the time between meditations.
 22

5. Paramahansa Hariharananda is the Master of the Shortest Breath, a

Maha Yogi, and a great Master indeed. Blessed are those who can be
in his presence.

6. The Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of

Peace, Brahman, Paramatma, the One without a second, is well
pleased with Kriya Yoga.

7. Courage brings courage, practice makes perfect. Practice brings

more practice. In this wheel, seeds of bad Samskaras are roasted,
and little by little perfection ensues.

8. Om Shanti, Shanti, Shantiji!

This is the Tenth Chapter named Conclusion of Shri Hariharananda

Gita, the Science of Kriya Yoga, as composed by Kriyavan Alfredo
Delregato.
