The Indian Yoga Association, through its Associate Centre, YogaPeace Sansthan, played a pivotal role in fostering spiritual wellness and authentic yogic practices at two landmark events in Jaipur on September 28, 2025. These initiatives showcased IYA’s ongoing commitment to connecting traditional wisdom with contemporary seekers and spreading the holistic benefits of yoga and meditation across the nation.
The Global Happiness Festival – 2025 at Hotel Clarks Amer featured the transformative Osho Omkar Meditation, led by internationally acclaimed Yoga Guru, Yogacharya Dhakaram, founder of YogaPeace Sansthan. Organized under the guidance and support of IYA, the session drew around 50–60 participants who immersed themselves in rhythmic chanting and guided meditation. The practice fostered deep relaxation, emotional release, and a collective sense of inner joy. Speaking on the occasion, Yogacharya Dhakaram emphasized, “Meditation is not merely a technique; it is a celebration of life. When we immerse ourselves in Omkar, stress, fear, and anxiety naturally dissolve, leaving behind peace and bliss.” The event was jointly supported by YogaPeace Sansthan, FitYog Fitness Centre, and the Global Happiness Festival, demonstrating IYA’s commitment to promoting yoga as a universal pathway to happiness and wellbeing.
Earlier in the day, the “Ānandam Yoga Shivir” at the Purnahuti Mahotsav and Bhaktamal Katha Pandal brought together hundreds of seekers for an early morning session of yogic kriyas, pranayama, and meditation. Conducted by Yogacharya Dhakaram and supported by IYA, the session aimed to awaken inner joy, harmony, and collective consciousness. Yogacharya Dhakaram remarked, “Ānanda is the natural state of life. Through consistent yoga and meditation practice, we reconnect with that innate bliss within us, bringing health, serenity, and completeness to our lives.” Participants described the session as deeply transformative, nurturing the body, mind, and spirit alike.
