Kriya Yog is a process of transforming a Nar (man) into Narayan (God). But for it one has to go through intricate Yoga postures, Mudras, breathing processes continually for years, and one must do it only under the guidance of an adept Guru. But this is not quite possible in this fast moving age. \n\nThe second alternative for attaining success in Kriya Yog is Sadhana. All one has to do is to stare unblinkingly at a Yantra and chant a Mantra which will help in acquiring a state of Dhyan. As a result a thoughtless mind is born. Generally we keep nurturing thousands of thoughts, linking them with the past and future. As a result the delicate neurons come under immense pressure and this may lead to mental breakdown. \n\nOn acquiring a thoughtless mind a person becomes one with the universe. He becomes Divine and attains super capabilities like mentally ordering someone thousands of miles away, travelling thousands of miles in a second, clairvoyance, clairaudience, telepathy etc. \n\nUnderneath is given a special Sadhana for attaining success in Kriya Yog.\n\nKriya Yog can principally be divided into three parts: \n\nDhyan \n\nIt brings the mind to rest but makes it more conscious. It is just like a process of looking down at the bottom of a pool through its perfectly still water. It is the best device to wipe out all tensions, diseases, depressions and confusion. \n\nDuring Dhyan when a person touches his inner consciousness he visualises a spot of light which enlarges gradually. First it is only a small bluish point which expands as the practice goes deeper. Then the person may see all the seven colours in it and as he continues all the colours may blend into a bright white light. This is an indication of the activation of the Third Eye. Now the person may visualise his own or anyone’s past and future easily. \n\nDaranna \n\nThis is a state of establishing oneself in ones higher Self. Such a person becomes a ‘Saakshi’, a witness to all events and Mayic influences do not affect him. This is also called the Paramhans state. \n\nSamaadhi \n\nIt is a state of wiping out one's personality and fusing one’s consciousness with the Universal Consciousness (Brahm). Such a person can travel to any place in the universe and can interfere in the course of nature. He does not have to take birth again, but if he likes he may come down as an Avataar.

There may be independent Reiki Master/Teachers in India. I have heard of Reiki being taught in India before, so it is likely. However, there exists some (mis)information out there about Reiki having been developed and practiced in India / Tibet and then having migrated to Japan from there. Not true. Reiki is purely and wholly Japanese in origin. \n\nBoth Tibet and India have energy healing practices. For example, in India, its Ayervedic in approach - using Doshas and Marmas. It’s a very different energy system than what is found in Japan - who received their energy system from China in around the 7-9th centuries in the form of CTM (Chinese Trad. Medicine).

Kyon nahin, Aisi duniya zaroor hoti hai- usko hum KALPANA ke naam se jante hain. Apni kalpana (imagination) ko khol ke dekho, Harry Potter ki duniya uske saamne kuchh bhi nahi lagegi.\n\nENGLISH TRANSLATION: yes, indeed a world like Harry Potter does exist- we know it as IMAGINATION. Once you open up the doors of your own imagination, you will find yourself in an even more fascinating world.

There are various ways to answer this question.  \n\nThe oldest Scripture is the Rig Veda, followed by 3 other Vedas (Sama, Yajur, and Atharva).  These express the timeless truth as heard by ancient rishis or seers.  There are so many Hindu Scriptures besides these however, although they all come from the Veda in one way or another.  The Upanishads are deep philosophical treatises that record the truths as found by sages who would go into the forest and meditate and learn with a guru.  They are very contemplative and I think this points to the fact that the "Word of God" in Hinduism is within the very soul of the person.  It is when one effectively lays aside his own selfish ego and opens his heart to the eternal truth of God that one "hears" the "word of God."  This was accomplished in the Vedas, and Upanishads, as well as other Scriptures.\n\nThe Bhagavad Gita is one of the most important Scriptures, because it records the conversation that the warrior and devotee of Lord Krishna had with Krishna Himself.  Krishna tells him (and thereby tells us too) the path to God realization.  This is probably the most-loved of Hindu Scriptures.\n\nAside from these I've mentioned are the Mahabharata - the largest epic in the world about the Great Indian War and it contains the mythology of India as well as the Bhagavad Gita itself.\nThere is the Ramayana, which tells of the life of Rama, who is an incarnation of Lord Vishnu as a righteous King in India.\nThere are numerous Puranas, which are devotional literatures which tells of the stories of various gods and goddesses.  The most popular may be the Srimad Bhagavata Purana, which tells of Krishna's incarnation.  But remember, as pointed out above by others, even though in Hinduism, we can speak of numerous gods and goddesses, in truth, we acknowledge that there is only one God with many names and forms.\n\nHere is a website that explains the many various sacred writings of Hinduism:\nhttp://www.hinduism.co.za/vedas-.htm
