History/Origins

Isha Kriya Meditation is created and taught by the renowned yogi and mystic, Sadhguru(2). The meaning of “Isha” is the source of creation, and the meaning of “Kriya” is internal action. Hence, the name is derived from the way this meditation helps meditators to shape their lives through meditation(2). Even though Isha Kriya Meditation is a relatively modern technique, it is based on the ancient wisdom of yogic sciences(2).
