Welcome back to Season 2 of The Kriya Yoga Podcast. Today is the birthday of my Kriya Yoga Teacher, Roy Eugene Davis, and so we will consider his life and the quality of Shraddha as it related to his success on the spiritual path. We will also talk about how important Faith is for one intent on Self and God-Realization through yogic meditation.

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.
