ESOTERIC: MEANT for the INITIATED BY SWAMI GANESHANAND

POST INITIATION INSTRUCTIONS ON KRIYA

THE 4 Ps (PRIMES) of KRIYA-YOGA or CHRIST-COMMUNION
BY SYNCHRONISATION TO COSMIC ACTION

OM
Kriya or simulation of Cosmic Action is primarily scanning the Kutastha , the Cosmic
Sky, -- the Holy Sea, both blue, within us. The orb of Light seen at Kriya initiation or any
Ideal Psychedelic Experience encircles that dark deep blue (azure-amethyst) pineal
spot. Constant Kriya gets one gradually keyed to the Kutastha (the pineal Periscopic
Screen, the Cosmic Space-Maha-Akash or Maha-Sunnya within us), the Unifying
Centre which combines both the Light and the Dark principles as a SINGLE UNITARY
PRINCIPLE.
As a matter of fact, the Kutastha is the crucial Centre on which Kriya-attention is
focused. It is the focal point of All Cosmic Actvity; the Centre within us which is a
resonant reflection of the omnipotent Centre of the entire created cosmos. Thus this is
the hub-centre of all Cosmic Action; thought, the Primal Creative Cosmic Action. is one
single Ultimate Unified Universal Power, one single Action, i.e. the Production of
pronov (Primordial notal vibration), symbolized variously as Aum, (primordial), Om
(Hindu), Hum (Buddhist), Amen (Christian), Omen (Jewish), and Ameen (Islamic), as it
were the hum or buzz of the Cosmic Creative Motor.
This is how Kutastha, Pineal for all practical purposes and Pronov are intimately interrelated. The Pineal is the Pronov-centre within us as the seat of the immanent psychospiritual principle. These are the latter pair of the four Ps or Primes, or, pedestals, of
Kriya-Yoga; Posture and Pranayama being the first pair.
Pranayam, in order not to relapse into a mere mechanical breathing exercise, must
include intent Visualization or peering at the Pineal, aaccompanied by mentation of
Pronov (without vocal verbationi), the vibration that is reverberating in the Created
Cosmos and also resonating our pineal the prime psycho-spiritual Centre between
our eyebrows.
PRANAYAM (Regular reposeful respiration) is the most immediate and important
component of cosmic pulsation, repetitively reproduced as the respiration process - the
most vital, life sustaining biological function so long as we are alive.
Its practice, therefore, amounts to plain and simple optimal reposed and rhythmic
breathing. Continuous or sustained breathing is thus a crucial condition of continuous

life process and vice-versa. They are directly dependent on each other. Stop breathing,
life stops; stop life, breathing stops.
But proper Pranayam (P2) cannot be practiced without proper erect spinal Posture (P1),
the first P of the four Ps of Yoga. Similarly proper Pineal-peering (visualization) or P3,
does not yield optimally without proper Pronov-mentation (ajapa: unspoken, nonchanted, unuttered repetition of the sacred syllable (om) The word that was with God,
the Word that was God Genesis I;I), P4. These are the twin neighbours of Pranayam
P2 in the natural order of the four Primes (The prime posts or pillars of the pedestal), or
simply the four Ps of Kriya-yoga: Posture P1, Pranayam P2, Pineal P3 and Pronov P4.
In practicing Yoga, esp. Kriya-Yoga, proper priority of perfection (the same natural serial
sequence as the order in which the four Ps have been Placed above) must be
maintained.
When the 4Ps are perfected, one is ready for higher experiments in Kriya-Yoga. It is the
primary pedestal on which the entire Yogic Process or System is squarely placed. The
Higher stages are available to those who can successfully negotiate the ground-floor:
the 4Ps.
Proper Posture P1, is almost always, the Anatomical position, or simply fully-erect
spine. Posture and straight spine are not only somewhat symphonetic but are almost
synonymous in Yogic parlance. Bucked-up-back is the primary pose for Proper Posture
P 1.
This must constantly, continuously, without any excuse for interruption, be maintained
by every aspiring human being having even an iota of initial sense of evolutionary role
of man in the cosmic context. At the time of Kriya-meditation, (real Transcendental
Meditation, not the fictional, if not fictitious, as the ones in the current vogue abroad),
however, Lotus Posture is an added advantage to set the body-mind machine on its
optimal operational Communion, the highest item in human aspiration, the summital
specific property of our species in the scheme of evolution. But remember it is only for
an added advantage, not a must. Any other position, with Spinal Column maintained as
a column (that is a most important must) is good enough for constant Kriya.
We have only to keep tuned-in to that Vital-function. Kriya-initiation is that crucial
turning on of the human machine. It is like Switching on the Psycho-Somatic
integrated circuit: an introduction into the neon eye or magic-eye indicator of activised
pineal glowing radiantly in the inner sky of consciousness, the inner orb of Light,
encircling the azure-amethyst ellipse at the center of the periscopic psychic screen of
inward vision at the Kutastha. The Kriya-initiator, whose pineal is already activated and
maintained in activised state can consciously activate anothers pineal by process of
psycho-somatic inductance. The aspirant then can recapture it through practice of 4-p
or psycho-spiritual resonance of Pronov.
Once introduced and acquainted with the activated Pineal glow on the screen of inner,
closed-eye vision, i.e., once turned on or initiated into Kriya yoga, (4Ps), one can
recall and reproduce or rather recapture the effulgent Aura of inner White Light by

simultaneous quadratic or 4P Action as explained and demonstrated by Kriya mentor or

Master. That is the essence of tuning-in technique. Kriya-practice is the only
appropriate process for a proper tuning-in. Biochemical boosting by psychedelic drugs
such as L.S.D., mescaline, cannabis and the entire rest may, in certain extreme
cases, be diagnostically indicated as additives to proper turning on or tuning in. Kriya
technique is the only scientific, automatic autotuning in device open to the common
average man aspiring after Self-realization, - progressive experience of existential
reality by conscious creative Self effort (Saadhana).
These things will not, in the beginning be perfectly clear to you, unless you do practice
Kriya rightly, regularly and punctually. In other things you may better let yourself break
from routine, rigid regularity or punctuality. But only in the field of striving for conscious
self-guided Communion with the Cosmic Consciousness, the Lord!- You have to be
rigidly regular and routined.
While you are in the initiate stage, you must severly restrict the open discussion of the
intimate esoteric subjects to only very intimate co-initiates, or more ideally, completely
deny any discussion with any body, who-soever. It is a very essential part of your sikhya
or education in the matter that you must avoid discussion or divulging of details.
But the main effective thing is your regular daily-dose of Kriya diving daily into your
own calm center (Pineal Periscope). (T.S.Eliot) or in Kriya terminology:
Kutasta. (Pineal Periscope).
Yes, Kutastha is the Central core of our Spirituo-Conscious, Bio-psychic or psychosomatic, Electro-magnetic, and physio-chemical being. It is the active vital Center of our
organizing ability as advanced organisms in the scheme of general volution. In fact it is
the crucial core of our being. It is the seat of our total being. It is also the effulgent
center of the Concent-rated, Condensed Consciousness and as it were the spacelaunching base for catapult-ing the Capsule of the Spiritual Cosmonaut in us into the
open expanse of Cosmic Consciousness.
Those who traverse and scan the Cosmic Sky, the Spiritual space-the Holy Sea, the
Cosmicave of Consciousness at the Kutastha, by Kriya-Communion through Yoni Mudra
or the Modulation for recapturing the Genetic-Vision which was demonstrated to you at
the time of initiation and which yo were especially enjoined to practice. You were also
asked to practice Pranayam with regular, reposed, reciprocal, rhythmic respiration by
using both upper and lower lungs and the diaphragm simultaneously (Integral
Breathing). This was also practically demonstrated to you.
Well it is that you do it off and on in between close secular works; and, after some time
of practice, even in the course and conduct of these works. They become almost
automatic in the course of constant and close practice. Almost all functional works
become guided by an automatic Cosomic Compass steering the Course of Ships of
your lives in this vast turbulent ocean of The World and leading you to your home-ports
in Infinity and Eternity.

Mind you some specific regular appointed Kriya-time (or Quiet-time) is a must of the
Initiate. As you proceed with your Kriya-practice consistently and sincerely, being honest
to your own very selves, the impact, implications and scientific significance of these
statements will burst forth into your then clarified field of consciousness. Closer and
closer you go toward the visible Calm-centre demonstrated during Kriya-vision at the
Pineal Screen, clearer and clearer shall become the total import of these longsentenced statements. Their sense will then dawn on you with their total clarity and utter
simplicity. Because by then they would have been part of your actually realized
experiences, the truths that realize or eXperience by actual empirical eXperiments.
As in the laboratory experiments of science and technology, so in the yogic experiments
of this Scientific Spiritualisation Process, the same common sense of empiricism
prevails. Only the Yogis laboratory expands into the entire Cosmos in which his bodymind machine becomes an Integral Instrument a superduper, radio-television, gyrooscillo-spectroscope that can receive and radiate; come into rapport with the various
quantum-levels of Cosmic consciousness, Consciously, voluntarily, volitionally in the
course of his/hers empirical experiments which Kriya practice indeed is.
Kriya-Yoga is totally systematic, scientific, methodical, and technically perfect if properly
utilized and can withstand any assault from any quarter, without yielding even an inch to
the highest high-priests of profanity.
Dont forget you; we all are Integrated psychosomatic machines (Natures Integrated
Circuits) which monitor the manufacture of millions of myriads of man-made machines.
The working principles of all mechanical gadgets, machines, engines, and technological
projects discovered up-to-date, and to be discovered by human ingenuity, are all
products of human thought intellection, moulding machination. These Crucial Creative
Capacities are inherent and potential in every human being. There cannot be any
argument that the human machine is a superduper one, the manufacture of which is
evidently transcending any conceivable ingenuity of any man-made science, at any
conceivable time, period or epoch.
That man can never manufacture a man, as he manufactures a machine is beyond the
fondest or proudest human hopes or imagination. Mans ingenuity can stretch to study
and understand the workings and principles of the human machine and to make it work
for progressive perfection along his/her optimal evolutionary Course through the
phenomenal universe.
But its highest utilizations are in the arena of the astral or occult and causal or spiritual
sciences such as tantra and yoga. Thats in the area or region of Spiritual Sciences and
Technologies the Integral or Synthetic Sciences of Communion and auto-integration.
All sciences (both the material and the spiritual) are closely-inter-related and
interconnected fields. As a matter of fact, between them they constitute the Complete
Science, the Total Technology: GnosisAbsolute Knowledge WISDOM! The
multidimensional discipline! Neglecting even any small aspect in the total scheme of
Science, a close, complete, composite tool for exploring and expanding into Infnity in all

its diverse ramifications in the finite relatve range!

Such a central crucial and critical-science is Kriya into which you have been duly
Initiated the Primary Introduction. As you proceed with the practice of the 4Ps the
other successive initiations will be automatically done or automatically arranged for
being done through personal imparting by Guru. According to Col. Powell the great
theoscientist, thats what I call the so-called Theosophists, there are five initiations
intervening the initial Initiation and attainment of Adeptship. Science tallies admirably
with the views of Lahiri Mahasaya, one of the greatest exponents and experimenters in
esoteric Kriya-science of Raja-Yoga. I agree; simply because it admirable agrees with
the five broad elements or ingredients of our body; solid, liquid, gas, energy and
vacuum the 5 broad-spectrum elements in our bio-bodies called the panch bhutas. Each
initiation is a successive transcend-ence through these five elements in order to
transcend the limits of the physical body. Fine indeed is Natures matching of means
and End! Fine indeed.
