Why learning yoga at the ashram
in Gurukul system?
Arhanta Yoga ashram teaches you on the ancient Indian education system of Gurukul,
in which you are required to stay with the teachers and fellow students
and study at the
Yoga
Ashram (residential spiritual center).
Gurukul is an ancient and proven system of learning
in India.
Closely supervised by the teacher, you will work physically and mentally and acquire the full experience of
Yogic lifestyle. This
way the rich tradition and wisdom of Yoga will be soaked up and
integrated by you.
You will live with
simple and basic facilities and limited communication with outer
world. This will help you to keep your mind away from your regular
life distractions and attachments and focus completely on the
teachings and self reflection, hence increasing your learning
capabilities by many degrees.
