Yoga Bharati: Bringing Authentic Yoga

We are a non-profit organization with an aim to spread holistic aspects of yoga towards health at physical, mental, social and spiritual levels of the individual and to achieve global health and peace. We are associated with Vivekananda Yoga Research Foundation, a premier yoga university in Bengaluru, India and we bring evidence based yoga techniques to address various health conditions.

Any person can join, there is no age limit. Important note: Please talk to the instructor first, if you have any medical problems

You can start at any day of the week. After few weeks of learning, one should be able to practice yoga on his/her own. Our mantras are positive affirmation of peace that wish health, happiness and harmony for the individual, society and for universe as a whole. We respect all religions and we believe that all paths lead to the same truth. One may pray to the choice of your God (Ishta Devata) or simply visualize a passive object such as a candle flame while chanting mantras. The vibrations of the mantras soothe and relax you and if you simply choose to listen, please do so. We invite people of all faiths, orientations and traditions into our organization. We respect each individual�s belief related to God and divinity. We chant syllables such as A, U, M and AUM for relaxation and soothing vibrations. These are the Bija mantras or sounds without any meaning associated with them so that they can be used to calm down the mind and bring about total silence. We consider Aum as a simple syllable that helps in calming of the mind. We also teach some peace chants in Sanskrit that wish peace and harmony to oneself and the universe.
