Five Reasons to Learn Yoga in India

“Yoga is not an ancient myth buried in oblivion. It is the

most valuable inheritance of the present. It is the essential

need of today and the culture of tomorrow.”

Swami Satyananda Saraswati

India is the birthplace of Yoga, some thousands of years back; Yoga emerged in the lap of the Himalayas. From sages to modern day Gurus, everyone knows the importance of India’s rich Heritage and how it has evolved with time.

If you are in a dilemma of taking up Yoga as a career but don’t know where to start then you have landed on the right page and at the end of this post you will have a much clear picture of why you should just pack your bags and leave for India to kick start your Yoga Career.

1)  You will understand the true meaning of Yoga in India:

Yoga has seen a lot of change in the modern era but true yoga is still taught in India by the few learned teachers who carry the rich yogic legacy with them and are ready to pay it forward generously and happily. They are the ones who teach that yoga is much bigger than asanas or postures/poses practiced on the mat. It’s in India only where I got to know that Yoga is a way of life and deeply impacts the spiritual and emotional quotient of a being.

2) Nothing like learning Yoga in the lap of the Himalayas:

There are yoga schools which are so attached to its roots that they have begun to preach this sacred practice at the place where yoga was born and the feeling of learning and practicing yoga at a place where Yoga originated is unexplainable and can only be felt. Giving yourself completely to the practice and getting immersed in the deep beauty of the hills should be another compelling reason for making you book that ticket now.

3) Understanding the true culture of the place where Yoga was born:

“Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.” 

― Benjamin Franklin 

Learning should always be on a deeper level, for true engagement and for true learning of an art, it’s always good to start at the place where it was born. With the learning of the culture where this art took its first breath, you will not only understand the history of Yoga but will also be able to articulate it much better in your practice.

4) Go to India for the experience of a lifetime:

India is a country with rich heritage, people here meet and greet with such warmth and happiness that even after living in States for a very long period of time, a part of my heart still belongs to India, the amazing part of this country is that no matter what background or lifestyle the person you will meet hails from, he can make you feel like home within few moments and hospitality you get is to die for. Having to learn Yoga here is no less than a vacation. The best learning happens when you get to experience education and fun together which will surely happen only in India.

5) The knowledge of yogi’s food and Ayurveda:

The yogi gurus who carry the rich legacy of yoga will also teach you the science of Ayurveda and what to eat while you delve into the deeper depths of yoga, Ayurveda has been talked a lot in the history and has amazing benefits on our physical being, to learn more about how yoga and Ayurveda can give you immensely amazing body, you need to come to India now.
