Ananda Yoga, or ''Ananda Yoga for Higher Awareness''〔Ananda Yoga for Higher Awareness By Swami Kriyananda, J Donald Walters Published by Crystal Clarity Publishers, 1997 ISBN 1-56589-078-7, ISBN 978-1-56589-078-7 159 pages〕 is a system of Hatha Yoga established by Kriyananda, a disciple of Paramahansa Yogananda, and is based on Yogananda's Self-Realization Fellowship (SRF) and Yogoda Satsanga Society of India (YSS) teachings. Ananda Yoga emphasizes inner awareness; energy control; and the experience of each asana as a natural expression of a higher state of consciousness, which is enhanced by the use of affirmations. == History == Ananda Yoga was established by Kriyananda from one of the oldest Hatha Yoga systems in the West. Its roots are the 1940s/1950s, when Kriyananda was taught these postures by Yogananda. Yogananda, founder of SRF and YSS, asked Kriyananda (then Donald Walters) and other young monks, to demonstrate the postures for visiting guests, as well as for public events, such as the SRF "Lake Shrine Dedication." Kriyananda and other monks also modeled for photos, for articles on the yoga postures in Yogananda's "Self-Realization Magazine."〔Described in "The New Path" by Swami Kriyananda, Crystal Clarity Publishers, see http://www.ananda.org/inspiration/books/path/index.html〕 From 1965 Kriyananda through his own organization started to teach Ananda Yoga publicly in California. In 1972 his students developed a Yoga Teacher Training Program, which is now taught in America,〔In various places, the main one being: http://www.expandinglight.org/yoga/teacher-training〕 in Europe,〔At Ananda Assisi, Italy: http://anandayoga.eu〕 and in India.〔At Ananda Gurgaon, http://www.anandaindia.org〕 The director of Ananda Yoga, Gyandev Rich McCord, is a co-founder of Yoga Alliance and a member of its Board of Directors.〔To hear Gyandev's keynote address, “Future Directions for Yoga in the West”, at the 2011 Yoga Alliance Leadership Conference: http://vimeo.com/31819734〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ananda yoga」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
