What the organization offers
The organization describes itself as non-sectarian, social, cultural and non-profit. It says it firmly believes in Bharatiya cultural heritage and aims to protect and preserve it. Its work is framed as a way of keeping that heritage alive, not only as a set of postures.
Its website lists the practices it draws on: asanas, pranayama, mudras, shatkarma and shuddhi kriyas, and a series of dhyan programs. The yog darshan and mudra vigyan pages suggest a study of the philosophy and science behind the practice alongside the physical work.
Programs and gatherings
Bharatiya Yog Sansthan has state programs, foreign programs and a number of shivirs, including large all-India gatherings. Its website also lists a section on yoga and health, with topics such as human biology and the vata, pitta and kapha principles of ayurveda.
