The ancient tradition of Yoga is a gateway to a miraculous journey within the mind, so say the greatest saints. This journey, of Yoga, can be experienced anywhere in the world as True Yogis and Yoginis can be found anywhere in the world. Yoga is no more limited only to the confines of any particular place, but the art has radically spread from its center of creation, that is India, to create an entire circle around the world. However, if you are eager for the Indian Yoga experience, then Yoga in Haridwar is a good place to start. However, the most important consideration of learning yoga from the masters of Yoga in the land of Yoga is to find a true ascetic who can teach you Yoga.





Yogis are ascetics, and the journey of Yoga is a critical inward journey connecting mind and body, therefore it is important to have a good Guru who can really teach you yoga. The difference between a good guru and a fake guru is that the fake one will be more interested in publicity, money, politics, racist hatred and other materialistic factors that he wants to buy using their talent of Yoga. That in fact is a serious wastage of Yogic talent and must be shunned by all who want to learn the true spirit of Yoga. A materialistic Sadhu is something that is hypocrisy and hypocrites cannot be true masters. Therefore, if you can find a true Guru for Yoga in Haridwar, then it is definitely expected that you will have an auspicious transition from outwards to inwards. Searching with the right purpose will definitely lead you to the true master.

Refreshing in the Wilderness by a Visit to the Rajaji National Park

Wilderness is always refreshing, especially considering the fact that most of the people reading this blog are urban dwellers who have somehow lost the touch of wilderness in the concrete existence of city life. The Rajaji National Park is a NationalPark, spread over an area of 820 sq km and encompassing three districts of Uttarakhand, Haridwar, Dehradun and Pauri Garhwal. This park is actually a conglomeration of three wildlife sanctuaries in the area, namely the Chilla, Motichur and the Rajaji sanctuaries. The Rajaji Park has been named after C. Rajagopalachari, a prominent National Leader of his time and the second and last Governor General of Free India, and one of the first recipients of the prestigious Bharat Ratna.  A visit to the Rajaji National park from Haridwar is a great experience as you get to breathe in the mysteriously unpolluted air of the wilderness in your spirit.

The park consists of dense forests and 23 mammalian species, including some most ferocious like leopards and tigers can be found at the park. Of course, it entirely depends upon your luck whether you get to see the wild inhabitants of the dense forest in their natural surroundings, but nevertheless the visit to the Rajaji National Park is a memorable experience. The National park also has a temple of Ma Chandi Devi, located at the outskirts of the park. A visit to wilderness is always fascinating for anyone and The Rajaji National Park is a forbearer of the mysterious Uttarakhand forests that Jim Corbett wrote so often about.
