S V Yogalaya, Arumbakkam, Chennai, an Associate Centre of the Indian Yoga Association, marked significant occasions with devotion, discipline, and yogic awareness through a series of meaningful programmes.
On the occasion of Republic Day, a grand archery event was organized at S V Yoga Center, symbolizing focus, strength, and patriotic spirit. The celebration beautifully reflected the fvalues of determination, balance, and precision—qualities deeply connected with yogic practice. Participants enthusiastically took part in the event, making it a memorable tribute to the nation.
The centre also celebrated the auspicious occasion of Ratha Saptami with a special pooja dedicated to Surya Bhagavan. As part of the sacred observance, 21 rounds of Surya Namaskar were performed with devotion and collective discipline. The atmosphere was filled with spiritual fervor as participants offered salutations to the Sun God, invoking health, vitality, and positive energy.
Adding further depth to its activities, the Tapas Yoga Club conducted an insightful session on the subject “Prana in Pranayama.” The session explained that prana is not merely air or breath, but the vital life force energy that sustains all living beings. When the air we inhale and exhale transforms within the body, it generates subtle energy known as prana vayu. The discussion elaborated on the five types of prana—Prana Vayu, Apana Vayu, Samana Vayu, Udana Vayu, and Vyana Vayu—highlighting their roles in maintaining physical, mental, and energetic balance.
Through these celebrations and knowledge sessions, S V Yogalaya continues to promote patriotic values, spiritual devotion, and deeper yogic understanding, contributing meaningfully to the holistic well-being of the community.
