Ganga Yoga Retreat
March 15th-23rd, 2024
Ganga Yoga is the art and science of invoking the flow of Mother Ganga within, such that we are connected to the flow of our own prana and become clear unpolluted and unobstructed instruments of Grace on Earth. It is a devotional offering to Mother Ganga wherein our thoughts, words and actions become the sacred offering to the Divine Mother. Ganga Yoga is the beautiful confluence – the Triveni of- of Bhakti Yoga, Gyan Yoga and Karma Yoga in our lives. It encourages channeling our spiritual energy to the service and welfare of all, striving to serveing like Mother Ganga with no hesitation, no expectation, no discrimination, and no vacation.
The Ganga Yoga Retreat includes twice a day Yoga Asana classes, mantra chanting, pranayama, Ganga Meditation, Ganga Mythology, Havan (sacred fire ceremony) and the world renowned Parmarth Ganga Aarti and evening Satsang daily. In addition during the nine-day course at least two visit to nearby pilgrimage sites along the banks of Mother Ganga and collective Ganga Snan are also included.
Ganga Yoga has been a yogic devotion to Ma Ganga, initiated and inspired by HH Pujya Swami Chidanand Saraswatiji, President of Parmarth Niketan, Founder of Ganga Action Parivar and Co-founder of Global Interfaith WASH Alliance. Through Ganga Yoga we seek to unite people in service to life and Mother Nature, dedicating their time, talent, technology and tenacity to the welfare of all. Ganga Yoga is an embodied, socially engaged prayer to the Divine Mother Ganga that Her holy, healing waters may always run free and clear to nourish and restore us and our lands.
