🙏🏼 All things Yoga, philosophy, and spirituality. Yogic Gurukul aims to provide online Yoga education through videos, books, and workshops - all centered on classical Yoga philosophy and Indian culture. We believe that the spiritual teachings of Yoga are an essential human need and help us to know ourselves from the inside out. To us, Yoga is much more than just a physical asana practice - it is a mental and spiritual process - catalysed through philosophical study, meditation and pranayama. Our aim is to teach a holistic Yoga practice, and be able to transfer the knowledge of Yoga as presented in the Vedas, Upanishads, Bhagavad Geeta and Hatha Yogic Texts.
