Ryan Kurczak
About this episode

Please welcome our special guest Phil McLemore. Phil is a returning guest, from episode 3 and 14. In this episode we discuss the process of moving into an Advanced Kriya Yoga practice. Phil and I also take some time to discuss the persistence of "I" in the latter stages of spiritual growth.

For continued inspiration and instruction, please read my new book, An Essential Guide to Kriya Yoga Practice. Now available in hardcover and softback on Amazon.

Your host, Ryan Kurczak, is a Kriya Yoga meditation teacher and author. He was authorized to teach Kriya Yoga in 2005, by Roy Eugene Davis, a direct student of Paramahansa Yogananda.
