Gratitude in Action!
When the world feels dark, we bring light by giving back to Mother India.
Yoga as Light: For the Self, For the World
RECORDING AVAILABLE ON YouTube
The word "light" appears throughout the yoga tradition, what does it actually mean to you in your practice and teaching?
Join a gathering of senior yoga teachers from across traditions for an intimate Zoom dialogue exploring one of yoga’s most enduring questions: how does the light we cultivate within ourselves find its way into the world?
Through conversation, inquiry, and the wisdom of lived practice, this special gathering invites us to consider yoga not only as personal transformation, but also as a quiet and powerful force for collective good.
We are deeply grateful to our panelists for this generous offering:
Lisa Walford
David Swenson

Richard Freeman
Moderated by Vikram Jeet Singh
