Students and teachers from around the US, from 

Germany, Italy, Austria and China joined together for 

a magical weekend flow with Yogini KALIJI at 

the TriYoga Center in Santa Cruz.

 

Students enjoyed 3 1/2 days of all-levels practice, 

including some "hot off the press" flows from Kriyavati!

 

Visitors also took time to enjoy the natural beauty of 

the central California coast-- and were rewarded 

with beautiful views!

 

 

Kriyavati Celebrations around the World... 

 

  Even those unable to attend the festivities in Santa Cruz found ways to join in. The Level 1 Teacher Training in Shenzhen skyped with Kaliji... 

  TriYoga Siberia celebrated TY35 in the snow... 

 

"Flow-ers" in Shenzhen flowed together at 

the TY OCT Loft Studio...

  at TYC Central PA, they had a weekend celebration 

including TY Therapeutics, a vegan potluck and chanting, 

and Level 3 Fire Flow on Sunday.

 

At the TYC in Nevinnomyssk in Southern Russia, TYC 

Director Shanti gathered students for chanting, vegan treats, and reminiscing about KALIJI and the changes TriYoga 

has brought to their lives. Shanti writes: "All were happy 

in the understanding that TriYoga is the path of joy, 

harmony, prosperity, and love."

  

And the group at the TriYoga Center Beijing (in Fun City!) celebrated together by flowing through 108 rounds of 

the Gentle Flow from Series 1, and then a vegan 

feast with cakes and prizes!

~ MESSAGE from YOGINI KALIJI ~

 

Thirty-five years ago I woke in the morning and thought something special is going to happen today. The day 

passed uneventfully until we had a late-night meditation gathering. Around 9 pm I began to guide the meditation session. I reflected back to 1975 when I experienced the blissful flow of kundalini energy for over 12 hours moving 

up and down the spine. Thus I guided them to imagine the light of kundalini flowing up their spine as they inhaled. 

This was the first time nada pashyanti was taught.
After giving a short talk regarding the importance of 

sitting still, we began the meditation. On the first round 

I did, the kundalini began to flow. Spontaneous mudra, pranayama, and asana flowed seamlessly in rhythm.
The meditation was profound.
 

This was January 5, 1980 in Andover, MA.
It was ironic that I picked the topic of sitting prior to 

the meditation since the body moved continuously for 

over 2.5 hours. The next morning I was eager to see if 

this would occur again. As soon as I turned my focus to 

this awareness, the energy began to flow guiding my 

body and mind through TriYoga.


This has continued now for 35 years resulting 

in systematized Yogaflow and Prana Vidya,
along with over 1000 Hasta Mudras.
All who have been touched by TriYoga....

Let Us Celebrate and Make the World Smile!

HAPPY TRIYOGA 35 JAYANTI!
