Global non-profit offering free meditation courses. Founded by Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi.
Sahaja Yoga is a spiritual meditation practice rooted in ancient knowledge, founded by Nirmala Srivastava (Shri Mataji) in 1970. The method focuses on awakening the Kundalini, an inner spiritual energy at the base of the spine, which rises through energy channels (nadis) to activate chakras and establish connection with cosmic energy. The practice emphasizes achieving self-realization and balance through effortless, spontaneous meditation accessible to anyone regardless of background.
The organization offers free 21-day online meditation courses, meditation videos, local classes worldwide, and specialized programs including meditation for children. They promote benefits ranging from stress reduction and improved mental clarity to spiritual awakening and higher consciousness. The teaching is non-denominational and positions itself as a transformational practice producing evolved societies where people live joyful, balanced lives.
