Philosophy and spiritual vision

Master C.V.V founder new yoga system known by the name "Bhrikta Rahita Taraka Raja Yoga" or "Electronic Yoga" in 1910 with a goal to make changes to human format and to cosmic forces influencing human format in order to give eternal life to humanity.[10]

"Bhrikta Rahita Taraka Raja Yoga", means the Raja Yoga that neutralises the accumulated past Karma.

Vedavyas, who was a leading exponent of Master CVV's Philosophy, in his book The Electronic Yoga of Master C.V.V. discusses about this new yoga system, Unlike traditional yoga in which one begins to work with first chakra and progress upwards, with the development of each chakra, giving greater spiritual awareness, in this system, the crown chakra opens first and radiated energy downwards. Master C.V.V compares the body to a battery with the left side conveying negative electronic current through Ida Nadi and right side carrying the positive current of the Pingala Nadi. When folded palms are brought together, sparking is produced in the heart chakra. Vedavyas also discusses numerology, astrology, latent power of intelligence and the striking similarities he finds in the work of Madame Blavatsky, George Gurdjieff, Sri Aurobindo, Ramana Maharshi and Master C.V.V. in a hash of zealous prose, not to mention the serendipitous significance of the year 1910 in the lives of all these people and cosmic events surrounding the arrival of Halley's Comet.[11]

Master CVV calls his disciples as mediums. At present Master CVV yoga is spread through out the world. Now Master CVV's mediums are actively involved in conducting courses to the new incoming mediums.[12]
