“Yogen chittasya padena vaachaam, malam sarirasya cha vaidyakena!
Yo’paakarottam pravaram muneenaam, patanjalim praanjaliraanato’smi!!
I salute Maharshi Patanjali, the highest among the sages, who has presented the remedies for removing the impurities of the body through his treatise on Aayurveda named Charaka Samhitaa. The impurities of speech through his treatise on Grammar named Paatanjala Mahavhaasya, and the impurities of chitta (more about mind) through his treatise on Yoga named Paatanjala Yoga Darshana. Furthermore, about Yoga Training in Nepal.

When somebody first hears these above very wonderful, interesting and secret truths were mostly hidden and shaded after the British left Bharat, they are surprised.
Now another Surprise is given here that recently one of Nepalese Sanskrit Intellect, who is a great researcher. Especially in historical, religious, spiritual, philosophical fields has given more than one hundreds facts and truths about Maharshi Patanjali, who were also born in Nepal. The birth place of Patanjali is located around 60 km West- North direction of Buddha Birth Place, Lumbini.
Another fact is that almost all Sages and Seers, Yogins and Holy persons, in the latter half of their lives, have stayed and practiced in the land of Nepal. Even wherever they were born, because of Sadhanaa Bhoomi (Land of spiritual Practice). The science behind is high altitudes, junction of Rivers like Dobhan, Triveni, Bank of Holy Rivers from the Himalayas, Land of God and Goddess, Less gravitational force for Kundalini awakening, and due to all the features mentioned above.
Karma Yoga Theory is ‘Effect and Cause’; it means if there is an effect, there is the cause. It will be the golden moments to grab the chance for yoga Teacher Training, Yoga Retreat, and even Yoga Saadhaanaa (Spiritual Practice). Get full experiences of Nepali cultures, lifestyle, traditions, Customs, in Nepal, and also be so grateful to learn this pure, sacred wisdom in such a pure and organic land.
Here in Nepal, Yoga Masters (Yoga Gurus) come from strong academic backgrounds, not just from traditional lineages. They also follow the path of spiritual Saadhana rather than approaching yoga from a strictly religious perspective. Yoga is not a religion—it is a pure spiritual science: a science of life, an art of happiness, and a science of consciousness. So, let’s walk this journey of the self together, with the broad vision of an International Commune.
Welcome to Nepal with lots of love, peace, and light.
