International day of Yoga Celebrations 2021

On the occasion of the upcoming International Yoga Day, and keeping in mind these uniquely challenging times that we are all going through, Yogoda Satsanga Society (YSS) is organizing online events to promote well-being of body, mind, and soul. These events -- introductory yoga-meditation sessions -- will be conducted by senior sannyasis and are open to all. YSS is founded by Paramahansa Yogananda, widely revered as “the father of yoga in the West.”
These sessions will be conducted in multiple languages wherein a YSS sannyasi will explain the various components of Yoga-Meditation, and then conduct a brief guided meditation. The session includes theory and practice of posture, preliminary breathing exercises, concentration, visualization, affirmation, etc.

You and your colleagues, with friends and relatives, are most welcome to participate in one or more of the events and learn about Yoga-Meditation.
