Answer

Hi Priya,

I am so happy for you—there is a very simple answer to your question! I will quote our guru Paramhansa Yogananda: “An important factor in overcoming karma is meditation. Every time you meditate, your karma decreases…” And from the Bhagavad Gita: “Even a little practice of this inward religion will free one from dire fears and colossal suffering.” What a gift and what joy to know the truth of this promise!

Ananda offers many ways to learn meditation and receive ongoing, personal support. You and your family may learn individually or as a group through online, in person, book or video offerings. We even have a meditation app! Luckily we also have a centre with wonderful teachers in Bangalore. For information and address please check out Ananda Bangalore.

Because you have come to this website to ask your question, you may simply wish to check out the offerings under Meditation and Kriya Yoga. May your life and the lives of your loved ones be ever blessed.
