Bali Eling Spirit Ashram Produces International Standard Yoga Teacher

Gianyar, 6/7 (Atnews) — Bali Eling Spirit Ashram organized a ‘Yoga Teacher Training’ to yield yoga teachers for 200 hours in Gianyar on June 9 - July 4, 2019.

“The effort is meant to give birth to new reliable, nationally competitive and disciplined yoga teachers to spread the teachings of dharma, compassion and good character,” said Founder of the Bali Eling Spirit Ashram, Ida Bhagawan Sriprada Bhaskara, when closing the fourth Yoga Teacher Training at Umadawa hamlet, Pejeng Kangin village, Tampaksiring, Gianyar.

It involved trainers and speakers such as Dr. Sagia Ananda (Ayurveda), Dr. I Gusti Putu Dharmika (Anatomy of Yoga), I Wayan Muliarta (Ayurveda and traditional healing), KS Arsana (Training for Trainers), Ida Bhagawan Yogananda (Mantra and Agni Hotra), Ida Rsi Waisnawa Budha Wisesanatha (Bali Spiritual), Dananjaya (Sanskrit) and so on. The alumni having passed the previous training are also given the opportunity to share while teaching yoga in each region.

On that occasion, the event was attended by 13 people of various ages ranging from 18 years to 71 years. The total participants taking part in the yoga teacher training since the beginning amounted to 45 people.

They were quite enthusiastic in attending the training event because it used the method of quantum learning and teaching. For this reason, more yoga teachers are expected to be more familiar with and easier for them to practice.

According to him, yoga does not only make one physically healthy, but also educates the nation’s life constructively and integrates towards Indonesia’s golden generation 2045. The yoga culture can later be inherited to the next generation because it has been developing for a long time.

Meanwhile, Chairman of Prajaniti Hindu Indonesia, KS Arsana, gave an appreciation to the breakthrough of Bali Eling Spirit in fostering yoga teachers.

“It is inseparable from the great vision of the initiator of Bali Eling Spirit which is balanced with strong commitment and courage in realizing the ideals of carrying out dharma,” said Arsana, Chairman of the Broadcasting Agency of the Hindu Dharma Council of Indonesia (PHDI).

The effort is meant to maintain the spirit or Balinese taksu or divine vibration in spreading the superiority of yoga throughout the universe. 

Sri Bhagawan Sriprada as founder, coach and caretaker of Bali Eling Spirit Ashram, has taught yoga, meditation and spirituality to several countries such as Germany, the Netherlands, Australia, and India. He also teaches and disseminates dharma teachings to foreign tourists seeking tranquility, healing and balance in Bali.

The most important thing is to be able to increase confidence in God Almighty as well as understand their identity (atman). Therefore, they are able to create positive peace and vibration for the universe. (ART/02)
