Sat Nam!

I had a lot of amazing experiences in my life but never one like this. Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training had allowed me to grow and develop into the person I have always wanted to be.
Coming to class, Mahadev knows my wish was to stay young. Now I am young in so many ways and look forward to growing in the RYK Community.

Thank you!

Blessings, blessings!

SatNam!

I am not sure how to express how grateful I am to you Mahadev and for RYK. I found you in a very dark time. I truly believe You and RYK are the reason I made it out so quickly and so happy.

I love the feeling I get when I am here. I love bringing my daughter Sophia to experience the love in this group. Now that I am on this path, with this group, I know life only gets better. ❤️

I am so grateful to be a student of Mahadev at RYK! It has been such a refreshing experience. I loved the powerful training. There was nothing like this around my area. However it was pleasing to find true teachings not only across the world – India – New York LOL

Mahadev is the Real thing. No fluff, no ego. No unnecessary stunts. He’s just pure energy! I so appreciate this and I’m so grateful to have been led to Mahadev and RYK.

PS. It’s always good to know and have a teacher you could trust not just for yourself but for my family. I will always be grateful for this.

It requires daily practice to keep the benefits continually present, in my experience. I did not know when we started this training there would be a COVID-19 Pandemic, none of us could have predicted that! However, our amazing teacher Mahadev made it work anyway. When we first started hearing about the virus in early March we met at a venue that was open and well-ventilated.  Immediately after that weekend the governor called for the lockdown. Since then we have had our scheduled sessions on Zoom. Mahadev made all of RYK classes and Teacher Training accessible.

Although this journey has been difficult for us all, RYK has been a huge blessing during this time.  The yoga, meditation and pranayama practices keep me feeling calm and grounded. I practice my daily sadhana -which has taught me how to love and take care of myself inside and out. I feel healthier than ever, physically, emotionally and spiritually. I also have more mental clarity, I feel smarter. I wish this for everyone!  It feels good too because we meditate for everyone to be well and I love that. I have tried many things to better myself and they were all good in certain ways. However, RYK has provided me with something that helped in every aspect of my life. I am still at the beginning of my Kundalini journey. I am so excited for every moment of my life and I am so grateful to Mahadev and everyone at RYK for this life-changing journey.

Sat Nam, With Love!

I had experienced some health benefits with just attending classes last year, and they have only increased with the expansion of my practice. Knowing and experiencing that has only built my enthusiasm for sharing the knowledge we have more control of our health and wellbeing than most people think.

Honestly, I wouldn’t trade the experience for anything.  Doing classes online has generally the same effect as in person. Yes, there are more potential distractions but I suppose that is a good test of focus. The shorter days (although secretly appreciated) may have an impact on stamina at the end of the course.

No matter how much we convince ourselves that we are “over it”, we need to deal with what’s left, the part we didn’t know was still there.

Because of the training, I am more present. I see how the past has shaped who I am. I would like to say as situations become a challenge I am always ready to embrace it as a lesson, finding the true me. Sometimes it is in retrospect. I realize what I could have done. But being able to recognize it, even in retrospect, and learning from it, seeing the silver lining in challenges that makes us stronger, and in the moment, I forgive myself for not living up to the challenge, but ready for the next opportunity.

Realizing we are all here for our growth as well as showing compassion and love to others is more prevalent today than ever before. I feel that I entered teacher’s training at the right time. I continue on with this journey, thankful for the experience, hoping I can somehow be helpful even if it helps only one person. It all starts with one person.

During Saturday’s Mahanjap, I was seeing all of us in the class scattered around the city and I could see the golden light lines connecting each of us, with each of us being a bright light.  Then after that you took us through the meditation and you articulated in your meditation what I saw.  That was really cool!  Today during Mahanjap I was seeing the lines plus more light and more lines building on top of each person. It was like there were merkabas over each person. I always try to send some light toward my special friend and other people I know going through a tough time. But over the people in class, I thought I was seeing the lines of blue and violet merkabas.  During the Satsang, I peaked and noticed it was my turn. I should not have and started to lose focus and be self conscious. I noticed yellow light coming at me. I felt courage. Thank you.

I feel like we are helping to build a grid for a new reality. This will be a good one. In my other group we gave ourselves the homework of sharing how our new and better “normal” will look like. My new “normal” will include yoga and learning and sharing how to use the most amazing piece of technology there is – our very own being. Thank you for what you are bringing!
