PERFECTING POSTURES WITH KASHIJI

Sri Sri Yoga Mega Course at Coimbatore

Last week the talk of the town in Coimbatore was “Sri Sri Yoga” that took place in Nehru Vidyalaya grounds in the mornings and at Vignesh Mahal Mantapam during the evenings. From teens to senior citizens nearly 750 participants underwent simple asanas, efficacious Pranayama and deep meditations. They enriched themselves with knowledge and wisdom to combat stress. Just like the industrial city of Coimbatore is synonymous with stress and tension, the name of Sri. Kashiji is synonymous with yoga. People who have known him would vouch for it. He has made everyone experience that Yoga is indeed very very simple and yet so profound.

The participants enjoyed every minute of the course with Sri. Kashiji. He imparted exhaustive knowledge about the Asanas and Pranayama giving examples and anecdotes. His Suryanamaskar demonstration was indeed superb. Almost all the participants shared that they felt more fresh and rejuvenated every day after the course.

I had sent my wife and daughter to attend the course and now coming to my own experience at home, I find them religiously doing their sadhanas. When I asked them what was the high point of the entire course they said “We were amazed by the graceful demonstration of each and every Asanas by Sri. Kashiji. He tossed in a tinge of humor which gave us the necessary pep to go through the postures with ease and feel lighter.”

Every one was impressed by the flowing elegance of Sri.Kashiji and was absorbed by his narration of his experience with Poojya Gurudev.

Many of the participants wanted such mega courses to happen regularly at Coimbatore and offered their support and help to conduct such courses. The facilitators under the guidance of Sri.Uthamraj, Apex Body member, had made excellent arrangements.
