Bommanahalli branch of Sri Pathanjali Yoga Sikshana Samithi (Regd) Karnataka celebrated their first year anniversary on the 4th of December 2009 at the temple premises of ISRA, at Bommanahalli, Bangalore,Karnataka. It began at 6 p.m. and went on until 10 p.m. More than 150 people attended the programme, and made it a great success.

It was also an opportunity for the kids to show their talents by performing Bharatha Natayam, Krishna Leela, patriotic dance and drama.

The Association President Smt.Indira, The temple in-charge Sri Thumsi, Treasurer Smt.Prathibha, Yoga instructors Udayashankar Shetty Anna, Mallika Akka, and Lakshmi Narayan Anna were among the people who attended it. Apart from many yoga students, people from the neighboring area were also happy to attend the anniversary programme.

Another highlight of the programme was the Chandini programme. About 50 varieties of food (South Indian and North Indian) were served as prasadam, which were voluntarily brought by the yoga friends. These dishes were served to the attendees as Kai Thutthu.(Given in the hands, without any plate affectionately.)

Pathanjali Yoga team helps flood victims

A 30-member team of Sri Pathanjali Yoga Sikshana Samithi (Regd) Karnataka, under the leadership of Sri Ramaswamy Anna and Sri Kaipu Seshadri Anna proceeded to visit the Flood affected areas in Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka, on 9th October 2009. The team consisted of 17 members from Bangalore and 13 members from Chelekere (Chitradurga Dist). They visited the most affected areas of Kurnool district in Andhra Pradesh and Raichur District in Karnataka. They went in two lorries with rice, oil, salt, cloth, blankets, towels, mosquito coils etc to help the affected people, and distributed them personally. These things were bought with the money donated by the yoga students and teachers.

It is considered as Andhra Pradesh's worst-in-a-century floods claiming several lives and crores of loss.

Many of these members had fondly remembered the special time they had spent in Krishna River during their tour in April-May. The yoga team returned on the evening of 12th October with wounded hearts seeing the situation of the affected areas.









This is one of the few houses which remained after the calamity. See the damage occurred.







The ceiling of this house was washed out from its original place because of the force of the water.

He is more popularly known as Ramaswamy Anna among his Yoga friends. He was inspired by eminent Yoga Gurus Padmasri Dr BKS Iyengar, Sri Mallyadi halli Raghavendra Swamy and Sri Ajith Kumar.

With a great mission in mind, Sri Ramaswamy started this yoga centre which offers free yoga training to the aspiring yoga students, to make more and more people lead a healthy and happy life by practising yoga as a part of their life. Today the Samithi has more than 325 Yoga teaching branches, most of them are in Karnataka. More than 10 lakhs of families have already got benefitted from his vision.

Sri Ramaswamy visits each branch of this Samithi and makes sure they are working satisfactorily.

These are some of the photos during one such visit to one of the branches in Bangalore. When he visits the Yoga branch, he demonstrates the yoga asanas to the students and corrects them, if he finds any one doing it "not-so-right-way".

























His visit is usually followed by "Chandini"programme and "Mathru Bhojan".
