Yoga Philosophy

Philosophy sessions revolve around concepts from Patanjali's Yoga Sutras & Bhagawad Gita.

At Shrimath, apart from the above texts, inputs & processes from Tirumular Tirumandiram, Gheranda Samhita, Siva Samhita, & Hatha Yoga Pradipika are taught. Thus, Yoga as a way of life becomes clear.

Mudra

Mudra is a separate are of study in Tantra. It is important for Yoga practitioners to know & practice at least a dozen of them to deepen their experience of Yogasana, Pranayama, Yoga Nidra & Meditation

Kriya

Working with Rural School

Pilgrimage

Pilgrimages are an important aspect of internalizing one's learning. From Shrimath we take participants to Tiruvannamalai, Sringeri, Varanasi, Tala Cauvery as well as the places associated with the Chakras in the body.

Working with Nature

One of the most therapeutic activities is working with nature, daily. The course participants take part in the farm activities daily as a part of their stay and study.
