Swamiji Nityanand explians, that in the fast-paced world of today, Kriya Yoga is highly scientific and true like mathematics. “Householders can practice Kriya yoga meditation easily and get rid of all types of stresses, mental worries and ailments while at the same time realize God,” he said.
I'm not gonna dismiss the benefits of Yoga, as they can be great ways to get in touch with your body, and improve your body in numerous ways. I will say that, IMO, the only thing anyone needs to realize God is the intent to do so. Since we have freewill it is up to us to realize God on our own. We don't need to do anything special as we've been told by certain religious paths. All we need is intent.
