We are happy to invite you to participate in the Ganga Darshan Vishwa Yogapeeth ashram activities, in whatever way possible for you. Wherever you are, you can connect to the ashram during these auspicious occasions with the chanting, the sadhana and the inspiration of the tradition and its masters, Swami Sivananda, Swami Satyananda and Swami Niranjanananda.
Participation in the ashram activities is a way to experience the ashram lifestyle and tradition initiated by Swami Sivananda in Rishikesh and Swami Satyananda in Munger.
Bihar School of Yoga was established in 1963 by Sri Swami Satyananda Saraswati. It provides yoga and spiritual aspirants the opportunity to undergo advanced training in yogic sciences and experience yogic lifestyle within an ashram environment.
Since 1986, the chanting of the Mahamrityunjaya mantra has become an integral sadhana of the Bihar Yoga tradition, and is practised every Saturday by yoga aspirants with their families, and all who follow the spiritual path as propagated by Bihar Yoga.
Chanting of Sundarkand from the Ramacharitamanas on every Poornima, full moon, and on every Tuesday
At midnight on the 5th December 2009, Sri Swami Satyananda Saraswati attained the highest state of Maha Samadhi. On 6th December he was given Bhu Samadhi at Rikhiapeeth. Exactly one year later, 6th December 2010 was the first day of the Sat Chandi Mahayajna, and on the very same day the Sannyasa Abhishek of Swami Niranjan, the spiritual successor to Sri Swamiji was conducted. This is no coincidence, but an indication of auspiciousness.
Chanting of the entire Tulsidas Ramacharitamanas on 12th of every month.
This tradition began in 2013, in memory of the samadhi of Swami Dharmashakti Saraswati, fondly known as Ammaji by all who knew her. She was the first initiate disciple of Sri Swami Satyananda Saraswati, supporting his mission throughout her life; and as a mother, she gave us her son, Swami Niranjan.
