A spiritual journey to Isha Foundation
Isha Foundation is a non-profit, spiritual organization founded in 1992 by Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev.[1] It is based at the Isha Yoga Center near Coimbatore, India and at the Isha Institute of Inner Sciences at McMinnville, Tennessee in the United States. The foundation offers yoga programs under the name Isha Yoga. It has over 5 million volunteers[2] and works in tandem with international bodies like the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations.
Isha Yoga is the masthead under which the Isha Foundation offers yoga programs. The word isha means the formless divine.[4] Isha Yoga's introductory flagship program is 'Inner Engineering'. It includes initiation into meditation and pranayama and the Shambhavi Mahamudra.[5] Yoga classes are also conducted for corporate leaders to introduce them to what Sadhguru calls inclusive economics, to introduce a sense of compassion and inclusiveness into today's economic scenario.[6][7] A yoga course for the Indian national hockey team was conducted in 1996.[8] Isha Foundation began conducting yoga programs in the United States in 1997[9][10] and, in 1998, yoga classes for life-term prisoners in Tamil Nadu prisons were initiated.[11]
Isha Foundation regularly organises Mahasathsangs with Sadhguru in Tamil Nadu and Karnataka where he gives discourses, conducts meditations and answers the audience's questions.[12] Isha Foundation organises annual yatras to Mount Kailash and the Himalayas under the banners Kailash Manasarovar Sojourn and Himalayan Dhyan Yatra. The Kailash Sojourn led by Sadhguru is among the largest groups to make the trip to Kailash with 514 pilgrims making the journey in 2010.
Ashram-The foundation has established two ashrams: the Isha Yoga Center at the Velliangiri Mountains near Coimbatore and at the Isha Institute of Inner Sciences at McMinnville, Tennessee. The Isha Yoga Center houses the Dhyanalinga yogic temple, a space for meditation that does not ascribe to any particular faith or belief system. It was consecrated by Sadhguru in 1999. The dome that houses the actual linga — which is 13 feet 9 inches (4.19 m) in height and made of very high density granite rock — is a pillarless ellipsoidal dome that is 76 feet (23 m) in diameter and 33 feet (10 m) high. It is constructed entirely of natural materials to ensure longevity. Burnt clay bricks were used with mud mortar and massive granite blocks without steel, cement or concrete.[15] The Linga Bhairavi temple, a feminine deity, is housed beside the center. The center houses the Spanda Hall, a 64,000-square-foot (5,900 m2) meditation hall. The Isha Rejuvenation Center is at the ashram — an Ayurveda and Siddha spa that offers massages, treatments and programs.[16] The Aadhi Yogi Alayam will be an 82,000 sq. ft. column-less hall with a unique blend of ancient and contemporary architecture, which can accommodate over ten thousand people, opening the possibility of inner transformation to one and all.[17]
The Isha Institute of Inner Sciences was established in 2006 on 1,200 acres (4.9 km2) of land on the Cumberland Plateau in McMinnville, Tennessee. It houses Mahima Hall, a 39,000-square-foot (3,600 m2) meditation hall. Adi Yogi: The Abode of Yoga, a 30,000 sq. ft meditation space, was completed in the fall of 2015. The Abode of Yoga is a powerful space for inner well-being and is available to everyone irrespective of race, religion, nationality and creed. The Abode of Yoga is intended as a tribute to Adi Yogi, the first yogi, who offered the yogic science to mankind 15,000 years ago. It is meant to serve as a powerful infrastructure to raise human consciousness in the western hemisphere: “If America begins to meditate…you will see, the whole world will long for it.

BSF in Conversation with Sadhguru #Sadhguru #BSF #Isha #Shiva
Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev[2] (born Mysore, 3 September 1957), often referred to as simply Sadhguru,[2][a] is an Indian yogi, mystic,[5] and author. He founded the Isha Foundation, a non-profit organization which offers Yoga programs around the world[6] and is involved in social outreach,[7] education[8] and environmental initiatives.[9][10] His books have appeared in The New York Times Best Seller list in multiple categories like Health,[11] Religion, Spirituality and Faith,[12] and Advice, How-To & Miscellaneous.[13]
Sadhguru was conferred the Padma Vibhushan civilian award by the Government of India in 2017 in recognition of his contribution to the field of spiritualism.
Spiritual life
At the age of 25 on 23 September 1982,[21] he rode up Chamundi Hill and sat on a rock, where he had a spiritual experience. He describes his experience as follows:
Till that moment in my life I always thought this is me and that's somebody else and something else. But for the first time I did not know which is me and which is not me. Suddenly, what was me was just all over the place. The very rock on which I was sitting, the air that I breathe, the very atmosphere around me, I had just exploded into everything. That sounds like utter insanity. This, I thought it lasted for ten to fifteen minutes but when I came back to my normal consciousness, it was about four-and-a-half-hours I was sitting there, fully conscious, eyes open, but time had just flipped.[22]:04:04
Six weeks after this experience, he left his business to his friend and travelled extensively in an effort to gain insight into his mystical experience. After about a year of meditation and travel, he decided to teach yoga to share his inner experience.[21]
In 1983, he conducted his first yoga class with seven participants in Mysore. Over time, he began conducting yoga classes across Karnataka and Hyderabad traveling from class to class on his motorcycle. He lived off the produce of his poultry farm rental and refused payment for the classes. A usual practice of his was to donate the collections received from participants to a local charity on the last day of the class.[21] These initial programs were the basic format on which the Isha Yoga classes were later built.

Jaggi Vasudev established the Isha Foundation, a non religious, non-profit organisation entirely run by volunteers. Isha Yoga Center near Coimbatore was founded in 1993, and hosts a series of programs to heighten self-awareness through Yoga. The foundation works in tandem with International bodies like the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations.[23]
Yoga programs and other consecrations

After the establishment of the ashram, Jaggi Vasudev began conducting regular yoga programs at the Isha Yoga Center, including a course for the Indian Hockey team in 1996.[24][25] In 1997, he began conducting classes in the United States[26][27] and in 1998, he began conducting yoga classes for life-term prisoners in Tamil Nadu prisons.[28] From 2011, he began conducting programs with large-scale participation of up to 10,000 and 15,000 participants at once. These large-scale programs have been attended by over 600 million people in total(till 2018).[29][30]
The programs are offered under the umbrella of Isha Yoga. The word Isha means the formless divine.[31] Isha yoga's flagship program is 'Inner Engineering', which introduces people to some simple Yoga practices & and the Shambhavi Mahamudra.[32] He also conducts yoga classes for corporate leadership to introduce them to what he calls inclusive economics, which he says introduces a sense of compassion and inclusiveness into today's economic scenario.[33][34]
He also regularly conducts Mahasathsangs in Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. Here he gives talks, teaches meditation, and holds question and answer sessions with the audience. These Mahasathsangs are also used as platforms to encourage tree-planting activities as well.[35] He also takes spiritual aspirants on annual yatras to Mount Kailash and the Himalayas. The Kailash Yatra led by him is among the largest groups to make the trip to Kailash, with 514 pilgrims attending the journey in 2010.[36][37]
Jaggi Vasudev organises all-night Mahashivarathri celebrations every year at the Isha Yoga Center. It's estimated that these celebrations were attended by as many as 800,000 people in 2013.[38][39][40] The night includes music, dance, and guided meditation. In 2013, performers included Carnatic singer Aruna Sairam, dancer Anita Ratnam, and the band The Raghu Dixit Project.[40]
In March 2005, construction of the Isha Institute of Inner-sciences (III) in McMinnville, Tennessee, USA was begun and was completed 6 months later.
