The Science of Identity Foundation (SIF) is a new religious movement that professes to combine some teachings of yoga with aspects of Gaudiya Vaishnava theology. It was founded by Chris Butler in the 1970s, and is based out of Hawaii, United States. Its views on homosexuality and alleged hostility toward Islam have been criticized in the media.
