Blessed To Be Your Children
We are well aware about the saying, “Behind every successful man there is a woman” but at The Yoga Institute we can tweak this saying to, “Behind the growth of every Sadhaka, there is just one woman, and that woman is our beloved Hansa Maa.” Her ever-smiling face takes away the frown, offering peace and tranquillity. As a yoga Sadhaka, I can vouch on behalf of everyone that her presence brings a sense of security.

The Mystic Who Transformed a Disease into Your Guru
If someone asks me to sum up my impressions about Dr. Jayadeva, I would say that he was a mystic householder who has transformed the lives of thousands. If his illustrious father, Shri Yogendraji was a Householder Yogi, Dr. Jayadeva was a Householder Mystic to me.

Addiction - a word that we all want to avoid, but we still indulge into. Drinking, smoking, are the common addictions we know of. But look deeper. Look aroundnot at others but at yourself. Look around yourself and you will realize the addictions you are prone to.

My Association with The Yoga Institute
I am associated with The Yoga Institute at Santacruz (East) now for nearly forty years. Most of the students of yoga science join yoga courses to find some solution for their health ailments. Some come to learn about our old culture of yoga. I don’t think I had any of the two above reasons to join The Yoga Institute.

The Yogis- Shri Yogendraji
What was this due to - this great culture of the Yogis? It was their self-concentrated stage, a stage higher than our physical and the mental planes where they could see reality face to face. They controlled their inner activities and misleading perceptions, to realize that Ultimate Truth - that stage of higher super-consciousness. Plotinus glimpsed the truth and found that it is only by an act of intuition in which the mind rises above thoughts and merges in the object, that one can realize the Ultimate Reality.
