NIRAMAYA: Spreading the Light of Yoga Education 

In the month of September, Niramaya (School of Yoga Education) — an Associate Centre of the Indian Yoga Association (IYA) and Accredited by the Yoga Certification Board (YCB), Ministry of AYUSH, Government of India — organized a series of meaningful yoga-related activities aimed at promoting holistic education and awareness.
Among the month’s highlights, Shri Divya Geetanand Rahul, Legacy Person and Chief Co-ordinator of Niramaya, met Dr. Niranjan Roy, Vice Chancellor of Gurucharan University. The meeting was centered around fostering collaboration and promoting yoga education at the academic level. During the visit, Shri Rahul presented Dr. Roy with a copy of “Glimpses of Niramaya”, symbolizing Niramaya’s commitment to integrating yoga with formal education and community development.

Continuing its mission to take yoga to the grassroots, Niramaya conducted a Yoga Awareness Programme at Netaji Subhash Chandra Residential School, under the Rajabazar Education Block of Cachar, on 17th September 2025, as part of its ongoing campaign, Yoga Chetna Abhiyan. The event aimed to introduce students to the physical, mental, and spiritual benefits of yoga and inspire them to adopt it as a way of life.

From Niramaya, Director Smt. Shatakshi Bhattacharjee and Guide Smt. Tulana Das Purkayastha conducted training sessions focusing on the fundamentals of yoga education and the importance of regular practice. School Superintendent Shri Bishwajit Nath, Chief Co-ordinator Shri Divya Geetanand Rahul, Member Shri Nirupam Das Purkayastha, along with teaching and non-teaching staff, actively participated in the session, making the event both interactive and inspiring.
As a token of appreciation, Niramaya presented a memento, certificate, and the booklet “Glimpses of Niramaya” to Shri Bishwajit Nath. Expressing his gratitude, he acknowledged the growing significance of yoga in today’s world—not only as a means to maintain physical and mental health but also as a promising avenue for employment. He further emphasized that early exposure to yoga can nurture discipline, focus, and holistic development among students.

Concluding the program, Director Smt. Shatakshi Bhattacharjee encouraged every student to dedicate at least 30 minutes daily to yoga practice and administered a pledge to integrate yoga into their daily lives. Through such initiatives, Niramaya continues to uphold its mission of promoting yoga education for the all-round growth and wellbeing of the younger generation.
