Yoga Shiksha Shibir at Nagdandi, Kashmir

-

Vivekananda Rock Memorial and Vivekananda Kendra have shared a long and meaningful association with Kashmir since 1971, serving the people of the region through various activities inspired by the ideals of Swami Vivekananda.

Yoga has always been a core activity of Vivekananda Kendra. Since 1973, various Yoga-related activities have been conducted at the Vivekananda Kendra Sri Ramakrishna Mahasammelan Ashram, Nagdandi*, through the dedicated efforts of Jeevanvratis, Sevavratis and other dedicated workers.

Even during the most difficult period of militancy in Kashmir, Vivekananda Kendra continued to stand with the people and serve society through various service activities. As a part of this long-standing association and continued service, the "Mata Kshir Bhavani Bhandara Seva" was initiated, which continues even today as an expression of dedicated service and commitment to the people of Kashmir.

Continuing this tradition of service and Yoga, a 10-day Yoga Shiksha Shibir commenced on 1 September 2026 at the Vivekananda Kendra Sri Ramakrishna Mahasammelan Ashram, Nagdandi, Achabal, Anantnag, Kashmir.

The Shibir has brought together 30 participants from different parts of the country. The programme provides a comprehensive understanding of Yoga through both theoretical sessions and practical training. Along with Yogic practices, the participants are being introduced to the broader dimensions of Yoga, including Karma Yoga, Bhakti Yoga and Jnana Yoga.

The daily routine of the Shibir begins at 6:00 a.m. and continues until 9:00 p.m., providing the participants with an intensive and disciplined residential learning experience. The programme aims at integrating the principles of Yoga into daily life and helping participants develop a balanced personality through physical discipline, mental refinement, spiritual understanding and the spirit of service.

The Yoga Shiksha Shibir at Nagdandi is thus a continuation of Vivekananda Kendra’s decades-long association with Kashmir and its commitment to spreading the message of Yoga and Swami Vivekananda while serving society with dedication and devotion.
