YOGI’S INDIA


The Sivananda Yoga
Vedanta Centre guides all
visitors around the 5 points
of yoga - of proper exercise,
breathing, relaxation,
diet and positive thinking
and meditation. All staff
members are actually
volunteers, practicing
karma yoga, as a means
to spiritual growth and
removal of ego

The temples in India are as colorful
as are its garments, with artwork
everywhere; this drawing on the
floor was found at Kapaleeshwarar
Temple in Mylapore, Chennai


The forward fold or uttanasana,
one of the many yoga postures
or asanas today, helps to calm
the mind while lengthening the
hamstrings, calves and back.
Great after hours of seated travel!

India and its multitude of bright
colors representing the diverse
nature of the country, in all
possible ways be it in fashion,
architecture, vehicles, religion
and languages
