The International Day of Yoga 2019

The International Day of Yoga 2019!

Such an incredible day this was! Yogis from around the world and across India were united in Yoga, and pledged for environmental protection and water conservation.

It was such a blessing to welcome more than 500 people to Parmarth Niketan in #Rishikesh, ranging in age from 2 years to 84 years and warmly-welcomed by the inspirational words of Pujya Swami Chidanand Saraswatiji – Muniji, the President of Parmarth Niketan.

We were joined by respected Monks from the Jain and Buddhist traditions, faculty and members of the Seema Dental College, Anand Mehrotra, founder of Sattva Yoga, as well as participants and leaders from more than a dozen local Yoga Centres across Rishikesh.

We invite you to revisit this magnificent day by following the links below. And be sure to plan to be with us from the 1st to the 7th of December, 2019 for the first-ever International Yoga Week, being held at Parmarth Niketan, in the lap of the Himalayas on the banks of Holy Maa Ganga in the Yoga Capital of the World, Rishikesh!
