Yoga
The Himalayan School of Traditional Yoga (HSTY) is dedicated to propagating traditional yoga, i.e. the essence of yoga as per the original teachings codified in the scriptures by Maharishi Patanjali.
Set up under the inspiration and guidance of Mohanji, HSTY’s mission is to promote a culture of yoga and make it accessible to all of mankind, beyond the boundaries of country, religion, gender, class, and wealth.
At its core, traditional yoga is all about simplicity and being natural. A yogi is natural, i.e., lives in a state in which the body, mind, and soul are in unison. This results in health and equanimity, or being happy and free of anxieties, anger, or stress. When practicing yoga, a sincere yoga practitioner gets fully in tune with their body and its subtle processes, thus quieting the mind.
We do not look at yoga as exercise, but rather as a set of practises that help take one back to their original state. We look at yoga as a means of increasing the awareness of one’s body and of aligning the system to allow the expansion of consciousness. In short, HSTY is focused on producing true yogis. HSTY’s classes are characterised by strict adherence to the core principles of Traditional Yoga, rather than paying attention to the element of fitness or physical aspect. The focus of these practices is on awareness rather than activity; seeking within rather than seeking out.
