Arsha Samyoga School of Yoga and Vedanta

It is important to understand the purpose of any activity that one chooses to do. Without knowing the purpose that drives the action, it becomes difficult to structure the activity in an efficient manner. Only when there is clarity about the goal, can there be clarity about the means to achieve it. Efforts are squandered in the absence of meaningful direction.
​We are a yoga couple who have spent several years in the study of the traditional scriptures of Yoga-Vedanta and wish to make the journey of our students easier in their pursuit of wellness & spirituality.
The goal of Arsha Samyoga is simply this - to achieve good physical health and to have a poised mind to take on the challenges of life.
We believe that the practice of Hatha Yoga is incomplete without the study of philosophy. Hatha yoga has the special ability to prepare the psyche for the study of Advaita Vedanta. The study of Advaita Vedanta texts gives one immeasurable relief and bliss.
The word yogyata means eligibility or preparedness. “Yoga for Yogyata” is to use the tool of the Hatha yoga practices to ensure the fitness of the body and of the mind for all manner of constructive pursuits - in daily life as well as for spiritual progress.
