Our dear Swamiji’s vision for a YIDL Ashram in Birmingham inspired us to start the yoga classes in a city centre community church last Spring, as well as look for a property for a more permanent YIDL home. Like all YIDL Ashrams it will be a centre for spiritual practice, community health programmes, environmental conservation, humanitarian aid, and educational activities; a place with opportunities for cultural interaction, personal growth and, above all – selfless service.
