Terms & Privacy

Last updated: September 2026

Disclaimer

The content shared on this website — including the Kriya Yoga teaching, meditation and breath practices, spiritual writing, and any guidance offered — is educational, inspirational, and spiritual in nature. It reflects the personal experiences, realisations, and perspectives of Kiruthika Rajeswaran, offered in good faith for those who feel drawn to explore this path.

It is not a substitute for professional medical, psychological, psychiatric, therapeutic, or emergency advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any physical or mental health condition. If you have any concern about your health, are pregnant, or have any question about whether breath or meditation practices are suitable for you, please consult an appropriately qualified professional before beginning, and continue to follow their guidance. If any practice ever causes distress or discomfort, please stop and rest.

No particular spiritual, emotional, physical, financial, or material outcome is promised or guaranteed. Experiences described here are personal and individual, and each person’s path unfolds in its own way. Please approach all spiritual material with openness and your own inner discernment. Your wellbeing and the choices you make remain your own responsibility.

This website is not a crisis service, and messages or applications submitted through it are not monitored in real time. If you are in crisis or need urgent support, please contact your local emergency services or a crisis line in your country.

Kiruthika is a practising yogi and entrepreneur, living an ordinary life with its own responsibilities. Because of this, it isn’t always possible to respond to every message or question individually. Much guidance is therefore offered through shared resources — including supporting material for those who have received initiation — and, where a general question or theme moves her to speak on it, through writing or video shared on her platforms. This is offered with love and in good faith, so that the teaching can reach and support as many people as possible.

Terms of Use

By using this website, you agree to these terms, and to use it — and its writing, resources, and spiritual material — respectfully, and only for lawful, personal, non-commercial purposes. If you do not agree, please do not use the website.

Honouring the sacred practice

The specific Kriya Yoga techniques are received only through proper guidance and initiation, and must not be recorded, taught, published, or shared. This honours the sanctity of the practice and the lineage through which it flows.

Intellectual property

The writing, artwork, design, photographs, and other original materials on this website belong to Kiruthika Rajeswaran, or to their respective owners, and may not be reproduced, republished, sold, or commercially distributed without permission. You are welcome to share links to public pages, and brief quotations may be shared for personal or non-commercial purposes with proper credit.

Each path unfolds differently

Spiritual growth is deeply individual. No particular spiritual, emotional, physical, financial, or personal outcome is guaranteed through this website or any teaching, gathering, or initiation associated with it. Whether any teaching or practice is right for your own circumstances is for you to decide, using your own discernment. Registering interest is an expression of interest only, and does not guarantee acceptance, a place, or initiation, which are offered at the teacher’s discretion.

Third-party services and links

This website links to or embeds third-party services including Substack, Google Forms, YouTube, and social media platforms. Their own terms and privacy practices apply when you use them, and we are not responsible for the content, availability, or practices of external websites or services.

Where responsibility rests

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Kiruthika Rajeswaran, together with anyone supporting, helping with, hosting, or facilitating the Shunya work and website (“we”), accept no liability for any loss, harm, or damage of any kind — physical, emotional, psychological, energetic, financial, or otherwise — arising from or connected to your use of this website, its content, or any practice or teaching accessed through it. You use this website and undertake any practice at your own discretion and responsibility.

As this evolves

This website’s content and these terms may be updated from time to time as the work evolves. By using this website, you agree to these terms as they stand; if you do not agree, please do not use the website. Continued use after any update indicates acceptance of the revised terms.

Privacy Policy

Your privacy matters, and any information you share is treated with care. This explains what may be collected and how it is used.

What you choose to share

This website does not collect or store your answers to the reflective self-assessment (“Turning the Gaze Inward”) — that reflection is only for you, and is not submitted anywhere.

If you continue to the application, the information you provide is submitted through Google Forms and used only to understand your interest in initiation and to contact you about a possible future gathering. It is considered with care, used only for that purpose, and is never sold or shared with advertisers. Please avoid sharing unnecessary sensitive personal or medical information.

Within the application, you may also choose to opt in to receive occasional guidance, resources, and information for those interested in this path. This is entirely optional, and if you opt in, your details are used only to send you these occasional messages.

If you contact us through the website’s contact form, your message and details are used only to respond to you. And if you subscribe on Substack, watch an embedded video, or follow an external link, that provider processes your information under its own privacy policy — those practices are theirs, and you are encouraged to read their policies.

You are always free not to submit an application, subscribe, or make contact. If you opted in to receive occasional messages, you can ask to stop at any time and you will be removed. You may also ask at any time to have information you have provided corrected or deleted, and this will be done. Where applicable, you can use the controls provided by Google or Substack to manage information held by those services.

Cookies

This website aims to use only what is necessary for it to function, and does not use cookies to track you for advertising. Some third-party services embedded in or linked from the site — such as Substack, YouTube, Google Forms, and social media platforms — may set their own cookies when you interact with them, under their own policies. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings.

Contact

For any question about these notices, or to ask that information you have provided be corrected or deleted, you can write to shunyavale@gmail.com, and your request will be attended to. Please understand that it isn’t always possible to reply to every general or personal enquiry.
