THE ASHRAM
Welcome to the Official Site of Sri Swami Balyogi Premvarni Ashram and the Yogant Foundation!
We are a small Jungle Ashram nestled in the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains between the Laxman Jhula and Ram Jhula bridges in Rishikesh, India. We greatly value living close to nature with pure air, water, flowers and birds. We are a refuge for spiritual seekers and students of yoga . We offer private and group classes in Hatha Yoga, Kundalini Yoga, Pranayama, Meditation, Kriyas, Yogic Philosophy, and Spiritual Consultation.
We have the unique opportunity of living with a realized master in the environment he has created since the Ashram was established in 1960. The Ashram breathes with the energy of awakening and is purifying and rejuvinating to all who come. Seekers journey from all parts of the world to experience a deeper understanding of their true Self. Please contact us if you wish to take classes, come into retreat, or simply visit.

ASHRAM LIFE
We experience the beautiful healing presence of nature in peacocks, doves, tropical birds, flowers, plants, 9 healing trees, fresh air and sweet water. We greatly value our practice, the grace and guidence of our teacher and ourselves. Each day presents an opportunity to grow into our full potential as human beings. We work to bring balance and harmony to ourselves, environment and relationships. We enjoy visitors as they bring renewed energy and persepective into our lives.
An ashram is a hermitage of yogis and yoginis. It is a place to deepen one's spiritual practice (sadhana). We accept persons of a mature age and disposition. Any person wishing to retreat in the ashram will need to fill out an application and be accepted by Swamiji.
A large part of our daily life is Seva (selfless service). This is giving of your time and effort make other people's lives happier and easier. Guests can help in the kitchen, for example, to give selfless service or other ways to help make the ashram a better place. Through Karma Yoga and Seva we dedicate our actions to humanity and divinity. This process starts purification within the heart and mind and helps a person to become a more open and giving human being.
