Ananda Marga in Sanskrit means “Path of Bliss”. It is a social and spiritual organisation with a two-fold approach of “Self realisation and Service to humanity”. Self realisation is the goal of life, achieved through meditation, yoga and related spiritual practices. Service to all creation is the way of life in the society of a spiritual aspirant. The course is designed from the designated asanas (sanskrit word for yoga postures) given by Shrii P. R. Sarkar, founder of Ananda Marga. These courses are also supervised by the missionaries of Ananda Marga.
