Master Yoga Foundation, Svaroopa Yoga

What will happen to Svaroopa® yoga?

Actually, you are the one who determines what happens to Svaroopa® yoga. That has never been up to Swami Nirmalananda (Rama) and it has not even been up to Master Yoga. If you are practicing Svaroopa® yoga, do you want to continue practicing it? If you are teaching it, do you want to continue teaching? The future of Svaroopa® yoga depends on your interest and support.

Most new Svaroopis begin because someone they know brought them to a class or workshop. Sometimes they even needed convincing before they were willing to give it a try! You are building the Svaroopa® yoga world, through your love of the practice and your concern for the people around you.

Swami Nirmalananda (Rama) has spent over 20 years giving away her knowledge. Of course, you pay tuition fees as well as costs for your travel and housing, which can really add up when you are diving deeper into Svaroopa® yoga. But Swami Nirmalananda (Rama) has never made her personal finances the priority. Your tuition supports the whole organization - rent, lights, teachers, administrative staff, mailing costs, printing, errands, etc. Everyone in the organization works hard to make sure they are careful with your money - that is why Master Yoga is a not-for-profit organization, dedicated to serving you.

Master Yoga depends on you. If you don't practice Svaroopa® yoga, you have no need for Master Yoga, or even for Swami Nirmalananda (Rama). They will just go away.

If you don't share Svaroopa® yoga, it doesn't expand out into the world. If you want to know what will happen to Svaroopa® yoga - look in the mirror.

Please also remember that Swami Nirmalananda (Rama) has worked hard to document teaching protocols. All that information is not going away. We will continue to use it and Swami Nirmalananda (Rama) will continue to refine it as needed.

Our Teacher Trainers, Workshop Leaders and Leading Teachers have been training with Swami Nirmalananda (Rama) for years. They already support our community in so many beautiful ways. They will continue to do so, in their loving, generous and powerful ways.

Also, Swami Nirmalananda (Rama) isn't going away, even though she will be gradually shifting her focus to the new ashram, over the next year or two. She has committed to support Master Yoga, and is currently working closely with MY Board of Directors to determine what our needs are.

Swami Nirmalananda (Rama)'s focus and the Board's focus is to make sure that Svaroopa® yoga is in your hands. We want you to know how to practice and how to share this yogic science! We are dedicated to supporting you in your love of Svaroopa® yoga, while you support us in preserving its integrity for you.
