YOGA SASTRA SANGAMAM

7th International Conference on YOGA
2, 3 & 4 February 2024, Vivekananda Kendra, Kanyakumari
Organised in collaboration with Mahatma Gandhi University Kerala  & Central University of Himachal Pradesh

“Each soul is potentially divine. The goal is to  manifest this divinity by controlling nature, external and internal. Do  this either by work, or worship, or psychic control, or philosophy - by  one,or more, or all of these - and be free. This is the whole of  religion. Doctrines, or dogmas, or rituals, or books, or temples, or  forms, are but secondary details.”      - Swami Vivekananda
