On the onset of Satya yuga, Yogiraj Sri Shyama Charan Lahiri Mahasaya revived the supreme science of Realizing the Soul or Self – Kriya yoga. The most sacred path
of being One with the God within, already manifested in all of us.
Through Kriya yoga, He bestowed upon mankind – the Sadhana of Prana – ‘Pranayama’, exactly as described in the Bhagavad Gita [Chapter 4, Sloka 29]. Prana [Life energy] is the most primordial existence of Universe. Static state of Prana is God itself.

Bhagavad Gita terms this secret Sadhana as ‘Brahmavidya’. This only is mentioned thousands of years back in ‘Yoga Sutra’ of Maharshi Patanjali.
“tapahsvadhyayeshvara pranidhananikriyayogah” [Sadhana Pada : 1st Sloka]
The name was later on changed by Lord Sri Krishna as ‘Karmayoga’ in the Gita. Lahiri Mahasaya again revived this most divine route of ancient Sadhana as the Yoga of Sanatana Dharma
[eternal Religion]. Dharma, which is beyond any caste, creed, community
and color; the infinite Dharma to reach the ultimate state of Advaita or Non-duality.

Yogiraj Lahiri Mahasaya Himself is Swayang Brahma. Yuga-changer. He arrived when Kali Yuga
completed its cycle and the Universe entered into blissful Satya Yuga
[Satya Yuga started from 1895]. He is reverentially addressed as “Yogiraj”
or “The King of Yogis”. Lahiri Baba used to write down His most exalted
Yogic Realizations in His personal diaries which were kept confidential
and were in the custody of Mahayogi Sri Satya Charan Lahiri Mahasaya
[grandson of Yogiraj Lahiri Mahasaya]. 26 such divine diaries. They are invaluable treasures in the abstruse path of Yoga.

On a later date, Sri Satya Charan Lahiri Mahasaya – commanded his most advanced disciple and an exalted Kriyayogi by then – Yogacharya Dr. Ashoke Kumar Chatterjee Mahasaya
to write divine books, directly based on those 26 diaries. The books
are authentic documentation on the sublime exalted Yogic life of Lahiri
Mahasaya, the science of Kriya yoga and commentaries on ancient
scriptures as expounded by none other than Lahiri Mahasaya Himself.
The
books are:

Divine Quotes :
-
“The dazzling sun of the
sky, whose brilliance has made this macrocosm radiant, that sun’s form,
fire, resplendence, heat are all Me. When there is nothing barring Me in
this universe then along with the sun of the sky I only prevail amidst
the total creation. Without My Immanence the resplendent sun of the sky
will be absent, thus I have created and am maintaining the totality. In
this manner all the forms noticeable in this world are My Form only, My
manifestations only. Therefore I only am the Master of creation,
preservation and mergence taken together.”
-
To familiarize the readers about his Guru Babaji ,Yogiraj, in his personal diary, has delineated a human face and thus recounted beside it -

Brahma, He only is the Container of the universe; everything evolves
from here and ultimately everything merges here.”

If one had to travel to a
distant place for a few days, some requisites would be necessary. In
this instance, the traveller is conversant about the place and period of
stay. Yet without the prescribed requisites, travel is impossible. But
when this body is abandoned and you have to proceed to an unknown path
for an indefinite period of time, then how many requisites would be
necessary? No material objects will be required then. The destination
and duration of stay is unknown. That requisite has to be acquired in
this present life through yogasadhana and carried over and that
sadhana-derived experience will be the only requisite in the form of
reformation. This requisite is imperishable.
-
The impurity of jaggery is removed by a certain process, similarly continuous Pranayama entails purification.
