replies: text: Kriya is a general term within sanskrit and yogic systems. its not identical to Kriya Yoga, which is a particular branch of yoga. If the term has notability on its own to any degree, it should stand. its like merging Bhakti with Bhakti yoga.(mercurywoodrose)75.61.136.242 (talk) 04:37, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merger with Kriya Yoga 

message: Hi Wikipedians,
Why is Sudharshan Kriya article removed? There must be a 3-6 page article about Sudharshan Kriya in Wikipedia. Sudharshan Kriya is a super breathing technique taught in Art Of Living. It has benefited millions. Unfortunately Wikipedia is not having an article for this!!! Sound ridiculous.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.96.37.147 (talk) 15:20, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: This is not the place to ask this question. you may request the article be reinstated at the appropriate place. The article was turned into a redirect, which means that someone felt that the subject was better simply redirected here. If you can recreate a 3-6 page sourced article on sudharshan kriya, overcoming problems associated with the subject in the past, go for it. if you search for this term on WP, everywhere, there is some problem with the appearance of overpromotion of this technique. however, this page is for discussion of Kriya and its improvement, and sudarshan, if notable, will probably not get more than a "see also" here.(mercurywoodrose)75.61.136.242 (talk) 04:37, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Why is Sudharshan Kriya article removed?

message: Sudarshan Kriya is rhythmic breathing technique which has hundreds of scientific paper and evidence specifying well being, health improvement at very high level(i.e. only 1 practice of Kriya has made huge impact). I generalized benefits and used references. It is important for wiki readers to understand the benefit. There are many other benefits which is not included including healing at DNA level, Solar Plexus enhancement. Comparatively it is more powerful than any other practices of Yoga/Pranayama based on the fact that huge transformation is seen even in 1 round of Sudarshan Kriya. It is not linked to any of the past practices as it come to life in 1982.
Further, being proprietary, details of practice can't be shared.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Deepeshdeomurari (talk • contribs) 16:37, 7 January 2014 (UTC)

thread_title: Bhagavad Gita mentions Kriya Yoga

message: As many of us requested to have different page for Sudarshan Kriya as it is not Kriya Yoga, It is breathing technique. Request you all to provide content here. Once it is having wikipedia standard - we will have different page for Sudarshan Kriya.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Deepeshdeomurari (talk • contribs) 12:27, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: : There seems to me something very wrong with an article about Kriya(s) when it 
a) barely explains what a Kriya is, enumerates the types, or explains what they are and what they are for;
b) talks instead about varieties of Kriya yoga, which as can be seen is the subject of another article. 
I suggest we remove material about Kriya yoga, reinserting it in that article or its talk page if need be, so we can focus on developing this article with its separate focus. If it is not agreed that the two are different (as I think) then of course we should simply redirect this article over there. If it is felt that a brief overview summarizing Kriya yoga is needed here (I'm not sure why that would be the case, as Kriyas were used more generally in e.g. Hatha yoga) then we could create a summary section, but the existing material is far from that. I suggest we simply delete it. Chiswick Chap (talk) 16:30, 5 March 2019 (UTC)

replies: text: Thank you Chiswick Chap for bringing it up here. Give me a little time to study this and I will respond. Red Rose 13 (talk) 17:09, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
replies: text:  OK. I'm becoming clearer and clearer that all that's needed here is a brief account of Kriyas themselves. Everything else belongs over at Kriya yoga. Chiswick Chap (talk) 17:33, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I read through the page again and yes it does need help.  I am not an expert on Kriya vs Kriya Yoga but I did google it and found many explanations.  I think before we do anything, we need to bring a person in who understands it all. Do you know of anyone? Kriya seems to be the main word but there is Kriya Yoga and other types of Kriya.Red Rose 13 (talk) 03:55, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
replies: text:  Thanks. A Kriya is a (single) practice, while Kriya Yoga is a branch of yoga that makes use of Kriyas, and we have an article on Kriya Yoga already, so we should not duplicate it here. I'll get on with it. Chiswick Chap (talk) 07:58, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
replies: text:  No, feel free to do that if there's anything worth saving, or I can lend a hand. Chiswick Chap (talk) 13:35, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
