04 Understanding Krishna And Christ -- The Science of Self Realization -- Srila Prabhupada

This section of "The Science of Self-Realization" describes how to practice yoga in the current age which is called Kali-yuga. 

Generally speaking this Kali-yuga is a very difficult time for practicing any type of spirituality, meditation or yoga. The atmosphere is very disturbed and people are full of anxiety and have so many problems. It is very difficult for them to pacify the mind, which is necessary for practicing yoga.

So it is virtually impossible to practice the meditational forms of yoga like hatha-yoga, astanga-yoga, etc., in this Kali-yuga. However there is one great benefit of this Kali-yuga. That is by simply chanting the Hare Krishna mantra:

Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare

One can very easily pacify the mind and counteract all the difficulties of Kali-yuga and make rapid advancement in spiritual life. This process of chanting Hare Krishna is called "Bhakti Yoga" and this Bhakti Yoga is the only practical method of yoga that can be practiced in this Kali-yuga.
