 Hari
Om, and welcome to ATMA DARSHAN YOGASHRAM (ADY), an ashram which
specialises in a unique and what has now become a widely popular
system of yoga – Satyananda Yoga™ - named after Paramahamsa
Satyananda, who founded the Bihar School of Yoga in 1964.
Satyananda
Yoga™
which is now also known as Bihar Yoga, soon emerged as one among
the foremost systems of yoga. And with it mushroomed several yoga
ashrams in India, Australia and Europe. In course of time, an
outstanding system of yoga primarily based on Ashtanga Yoga of
Rishi Patanjali evolved. The techniques taught are a synthesis
of many approaches to personal development based on traditional
vedanta, tantra and yoga. These systems and techniques are now
a benchmark in the network of Satyananda ashrams the world over.
And in the world’s first Yoga University of the modern times,
Bihar Yoga Bharati (presently under course restructuring). Simultaneously
an excellent range of yoga books came out of Bihar School of Yoga,
to serve as text books at teaching ashrams, institutions and yoga
clinics.
As
the southern branch of Bihar School of Yoga, ADY is linked to one
of the great yogic and spiritual lineages, beginning from Swami
Sivananda of Rishikesh, and directly to his disciple Swami Satyananda
Saraswati. Swami Niranjanananda Saraswati, the chief disciple of
Sw. Satyananda, is now the Paramacharya of Bihar School of Yoga.
ADY
was established in Bangalore in 1979. It is managed by a local board
of trustees. Yogic teaching, therapies and counseling are conducted
by teachers trained at Bihar School of Yoga and Bihar Yoga Bharati.
The facilities at ADY are available to all regardless of religion,
belief, caste, age, sex and nationality. |
