The Science of परणशकत(Vital Energy) and Its Regulation Through Kriya Yoga
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The concept of प्राणशक्ति (Prana Shakti)—the vital energy that sustains life—is central to Indian yogic and spiritual traditions. Rooted in Vedic philosophy, prana is considered the bridge between the physical body and the higher states of consciousness. Among the various yogic systems, Kriya Yoga offers a structured method to regulate and harness prana, facilitating spiritual growth, mental clarity, and physiological well-being. This paper explores the scientific understanding of prana, its relation to neurophysiology and bioenergetics, and the role of Kriya Yoga as a systematic method of panic regulation. The discussion integrates ancient yogic texts such as the Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, and Patanjali Yoga Sutras with modern scientific perspectives on bio electromagnetism, neuroplasticity, and autonomic nervous system regulation.
