After the success and appreciation of my first book "God and Self- Realization" (Scientific and Spiritual View), published in 2002,many valued readers suggested the need to the practical techniques about "Kundalini& kriya Yoga". This book is based upon my whole life yogic experiences, spiritual studies and blessings of the great saints.

The most of the books available on this subject are neither according to the scriptures, nor concise and nor comprehensive. Some have diverted the main topic and have added too much superfluous information like the details of human anatomy, unlimited description of miner chakras and innumerable nadis in the body. This creates confusion and takes us away from the real goal of self-Realization. Some have ignored, distorted and twisted the most essential aphorisms of Yama & Niyama and have added their own objectionable views to misguide the innocent readers. Although the subject is very vast, still I have tried my best to be concise and to cover the entire necessary information on the subject, in an easy to understand language with yogic terms.

"Kundalini & Kriya Yoga" covers both theoretical and practical knowledge in the search of God. It is journey of soul back to God. It is based upon the Holy Scriptures and the direct experiences of realized saints. All the saints have variety of subtle divine experience of awakening of Kundalini.

I am fortunate that I was born in India in a spiritual environment and got the blessings of great saints. India is a country, which has given the greatest gift like Holy Scriptures, Avataras, so many realized saints many religions to the world. The theoretical & practical knowledge of the great Vedas and Scriptures is easily available to the seekers of God in their easy to understand languages in India, but the west deprived of it. In India aspirants have also an advantage to get the direct, contact, interaction and guidance of the great Gurus in seeking their spiritual path. I am fortunate to have the blessings of the great saints like Sri. Paramhansa Yogananda, Sri Amar jyoti Babaji, Sri Mahavtar Babaji and Sri Sathya Sai Babaji.

I am indebted for the great computer help in typing editing designing and in providing the various spiritual ideas and though to my wife Vimla Devi, daughter jai Shree and son Raju Gupta.

I am thankful for a lot of help, inspiration, guidance and discussion on the related topics in this book from many God-devoted persons likes Sh. Ashok Verdhan Dewan, EX-D. D. E; Mr.& Mrs. Prem Bhandari Head of Third Eye Mission; Sh. R. K. Gupta, Head of National Informatics Centre (NIC) And Dr.Archana Gupta, Sr. Scientist & Addl. Director Council of Scientific & Industrial Research (CSIR).

I can never forget the help of all the persons in the publishing and printing of this book.
