Sahaja Yoga is a religious form of Yoga practice. Although the term Sahaja Yoga was originally used in the fifteenth century, the modern version was founded by Shri Mataji, aka Nirmala Srivastava. This brand of Yoga originated in India and then moved to England when its founder did in the mid seventies. Sahaja Yoga has since branched out to multiple locations worldwide. It has been trademarked in the US since the year 2000. In its more religious format, it is known as Vishwa Nirmala Dharma and Sahaja Yoga International. It is currently recognized as a religion in the US and Russia.
It is a kundalini focused Yoga practice leading to self realization, awareness of sub-thought regions, and mental peace and quiet. It works with the chakras and nadis, commonly known to multiple Indian and new age practices. Practice involves working with meditation, chakra-cleansing, and prayer. Medical studies have partially backed claims that Sahaja Yoga can assist with treating asthma and several other medical complaints. Its practitioners believe in can cure everything from cancer to aids if practiced correctly and with respect to its founder. Related puja activities are supposedly only for those of some prior achievement in thoughtlessness due to it having little benefit.
Sahaja Yoga also utilizes candle flames, water, chili, lemon, coconut, and other natural ingredients for the purpose of cleansing. A special diet has also been created for those interested.
