In this episode of The Kriya Yoga Podcast, we have a very special presentation. Robert Martin began the Kriya Yoga Apprenticeship Program in 2019. He joined us this past September of 2022, for another end-of-year Kriya Yoga Apprenticeship retreat, and gave a talk to the participants, sharing how he has changed and developed since beginning Kriya Meditation and applying the recommended yogic lifestyles guidelines. His testimony was well received, and so I thought it useful to share with you, the audience of The Kriya Yoga Podcast.  It is my wish that his words share the possibilities one can experience after consistent practice of Kriya Yoga.  Also, I want to take some time to wholeheartedly thank the supporters of this podcast. This podcast is supported by The Journal of A Kriya Yoga Patreon Community, and the donations from students of the 2-Year Kriya Yoga Apprenticeship Program.
