Since my
childhood I found myself connected to yoga.
My nature, thinking and views supported my yoga practices. But formally
my Yoga journey started during my graduation. One day there was a circular on
the notice board of my college about an
institute of yoga classes, till then I didn't exactly know what yoga is but was so much attracted towards it, that
very day I went to the related office to get the application form to get the
admission. The concerned people refused
to give me the application form after knowing that I am a graduation first year
student and asking for a post graduation application form. They were surprised
and told me that for this form I will
have to wait for 3 years, until I complete my graduation. I still argued
" No I want it now, I can not wait for 3 Years, its too long a time."
but…... Then one of my friend helped me out with this. He told me more about
the courses and the institutes and gave me a book of yoga from Asharambapu ji,
it was a basic yoga guiding book which proved to be very helpful. After this, I
started my regular practice from the book and followed the instructions very
carefully, but some mistakes were sure to be made without a teacher. I
practiced Shoulder stand and plough pose for a
longer duration without its counter pose, due to which I had a little
problem in my Cervical region. After completing my graduation and self yoga
practice for two years i got through the entrance examination of Dev Sanskriti
Viswavidhyalaya (University) Haridwar and did my Post Graduate Diploma in yoga
under trained teachers.
