Welcome to Delhi Yoga Sabha

Delhi Yoga Sabha is a pioneer organization in the field of Yoga which has been serving humanity by treatment of various ailments for the last more than forty years. Although formally established in Delhi in 1967, the roots of this organization dates back to 1921 when Yogeshwar Ram Lal Mahaprabhu ji established His first Yoga centre in Lahore (Integrated India), followed by three more ashrams in Chhehretta (Amritsar) Pb., Rishikesh (Uttra Khand) and Sawain Gram (U.P.). There is a prophecy about holy birth of Yogeshwar Ram Lal Mahaprabhu (written in Tamil on Taad Patra in Kak Nadi Samhita) that he is master of Ashtang Yoga and there is no difference between Him and almighty God. Numbers of godly miracles were performed by Him for the benefit of mankind. For Him yoga was an alround development of body , mind and soul. At a time when Yoga was considered suitable only for the monks and saints, He went from place to place to teach Yoga as an instrument for sound health and sound mind embodied in His own radiant self-realised personality.

Shri Mahaprabhu Ji during his life time conferred all His spiritual powers upon His chief disciple Rev. Yogeshwar Mulakh Raj Ji Maharaj, who as a result of this, remained in a state of Samadhi for twelve years. He also established Shri Yog Abhyas Ashram at Sanyas Marg, Kankhal (Hardwar) in the year 1952. It was in the year 1941 when Rev. Sadgurudev Yogeshwar Swami Devi Dayal Ji Maharaj (third in line of succession) was attracted by the spiritual powers of Yogeshwar Mulakh Raj Ji Maharaj to be at his feet at Yog Sadhan Ashram, Chhehretta (Amritsar) Pb. and since then with the blessings of his Gurudev and Dadagurudev, he had been able to disseminate his Master's teachings throughout the length and breadth of the country. He established over forty yoga centres/Yoga Temples/Yog Chikitsalayas and twelve state-level registered yoga sabhas for management of these yoga centres. Under his sublime guidance countless people from all walks of life irrespective of caste, creed, colour and religion had been trained to remain healthy throughout life without use of medicine, cured of various ailments .Aspirants (Mumukshus) for higher Yoga have been granted Eternal Peace and Bliss.

Yoga is one of the most important facets of the Indian culture with a living tradition of more than five thousand years. Yoga is meant essentially for spiritual heritage and has grown to be accepted as a science of spiritual development and health The awareness about Yoga practices is enhancing amongst people from different walks of life not only for preservation and management of diseases but also for peace of mind and spiritual evolution. In the modern days, the techniqaues of Yogic Science are extremely useful in the management of stress and stress related disorders and to promote positive health of an individual.

India is a country with more than a billion population with a rich heritage and a bright future. It is constantly marching ahead with new ideas and technologies after its independence from the colonial rule. The lifestyle of people has become more stressful and lifestyle disorders like obesity, sleep disturbances, high blood pressure, psychosomatic diseases, diabetes and heart diseases are on the rise. India has acquired the designation of Diabetic capital of the world. To combat the lifestsyle disorders and diseases, the Sabha has taken a lead and commenced a SHORT TERM YOGA TEACHER TRAINING COURSE (Three & Six Months' duration) for health promotion for individual and at community level.

It has been our earnest endeavour that maximum number of people should get benefited from our selfless Yoga services. With this object, in view, we keep our centres working throughout the year. At the request of D.D.A., we have also .been running yoga classes for the last more than twenty years at Sirifort Sports Complex, Asiad Village, New Delhi.

Benefits of Yoga

The practice of yoga offers a myriad of benefits that encompass physical, mental, and emotional well-being. On a physical level, regular yoga practice improves flexibility, strength, and balance. Through a variety of asanas (postures), yoga stretches and strengthens the muscles, joints, and connective tissues, promoting better posture and overall body alignment. It enhances the body's range of motion and reduces the risk of injuries.

Yoga also has a positive impact on mental health. By focusing on the breath and being present in the moment, yoga cultivates mindfulness and reduces stress. It helps to calm the nervous system, lowers cortisol levels, and promotes a sense of relaxation and inner peace. Regular yoga practice can alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression, improve sleep quality, and enhance overall mental clarity and concentration.

Emotionally, yoga fosters self-awareness and self-acceptance. Through deep breathing and conscious movement, individuals develop a stronger mind-body connection and gain a better understanding of their emotions and thought patterns. Yoga encourages self-compassion, self-love, and a non-judgmental attitude, promoting emotional balance and resilience.
