The
Yoga Institute, Santacruz (East), Mumbai, India was founded
in 1918 by Shri Yogendraji and is the oldest organized
centre of Yoga in the world.
Shri Yogendraji as a young college student became an ardent
believer in Yoga when he met his Guru Pujya Shri Paramahamsa
Madhavdasaji. Shri Yogendraji studied Yoga at Paramahamsa
Madhavadasaji's ashram in Malsar, Gujrat. From the beginning,
he was a non-conformist and a very close bond developed
between the Master and the student. The Guru taught him
many things by direct experience. With a broader vision
of becoming a householder to propagate the message of
Yoga, he left the ashram on completion of his training
as he felt that the benefits of Yoga could be given to
all instead of keeping it a secret for very few. Thus
Shri Yogendra became known as the Father of Modern Yoga
Renaissance. |
