Despite all tall claims by others, no one is perhaps as authorised as Shibendu Lahiri (born 1939), the

great grand son of famous house holder Yogi Lahiri Mahashay (1828-1895), to spread the authentic
teachings and techniques of Kriya Yoga in the world today.

Yet he says in utter humility that wise wields no authority and those in authority are not wise!
Organisations assert authority, but authenticity may be lacking. Mobilisation may create a mafia,
but the most sacred may remain untouched. Cultism has no place in matters deeply spiritual.

Lahiri Mahasay (Full Name: Shyama Charan Lahiri) became known to the truth seekers all over the
world through Paramahamsa Yogananda's famous book "Autobiography of a Yogi", which has been
translated in many languages.

Shibendu has the distinction of receiving the original Kriya process in the age old Rishi-tradition of
India, that is, from father to son - generation after generation. Thus the process here passed, through
knowledge and genes, from Shyama Charan to Tinkori to Satya Charan to Shibendu who was
initiated in 1960 by his father Late Satya Charan Lahiri at the family shrine "Satyalok" D 22/3,
Chousatti Ghat, Varanasi - 221 001 (India).

Kriya Yoga : Kriya means action and Yoga means integration. Kriya Yoga emphasises integration of
separative consciousness (generated by unceasing movement of thought) with an awakenedness
(that is, a non-elective holistic attention free from mental fragmentations) through actions of
perception and not through the activities of conceptualisation.
