Who is Sri Sri Ravishankar

Sri Sri Ravishankar is a spiritual master and founder of the Art of Living Foundation — one of the world's largest volunteer-based organisations operating in 180 countries. He is the developer of Sudarshan Kriya and founder of the Sri Sri Yoga tradition.

What Sri Sri Yoga is

Sri Sri Yoga is a complete system integrating asana, pranayama, meditation, and yogic wisdom into a cohesive daily practice. It emphasises the health benefits and scientific basis of each practice, making classical yoga accessible to modern practitioners.

Why lineage matters in yoga

In the Indian tradition, knowledge is transmitted through the relationship between teacher and student. A genuine lineage means the knowledge has been tested, refined, and passed down through generations of direct transmission — including the why behind each practice, the contraindications discovered over centuries, and the depth of application that no certification course alone can transmit.
