Guest guest Posted March 12, 2002 Report Share Posted March 12, 2002 Can you help me to compare these two paths? Nada Yoga vs Bhakti Yoga Nada Yoga (meditation on sound) [ Within the heading of Kriya Yoga, or yoga of technique, there are several subtly different forms of yoga which teach meditation on sound as a path to spiritual growth and awareness. The three principal forms of this variety of yoga are Nada, Laya, and Surat Shabda yoga. ] Any scripture reference on Nada Yoga? Are they impersonalist? Is merge with God the same as become God? Thanks for help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The three > principal forms of this variety of yoga are Nada, Laya, and Surat > Shabda yoga. ] As far as I know, "Nada Yoga" (or maybe "Naada Yoga?") was coined by the great Vaishnava singer-saint Shrii Thyaagaraaja, who used it to describe devotional service through singing songs glorifying the Lord. I have never heard of it in any other context. I have never heard of Kriya Yoga, or the other yogas you mentioned. I'm pretty sure none of them are found in BHagavad-giitaa. yours, - K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
