Isha Institute Of Inner-Sciences

★Shade

Namaskaram, I have an extremely intimate relationship with Sadhguru (my Guru). Words cannot explain the experiences I have had. The alignment with the divine, the creator is beyond imaginable. If I could move mountains or the moon it would not come even close to what actually happens with Sadhguru's grace. Surrendering totally has done me miracles. I was once very ecstatic and exuberant to become a full time volunteer and spend the rest of my life helping Isha Institute of Inner Sciences as I am highly skilled in material worldly ways of serving but also very advanced and receptive with sadhana. But it is quite the opposite now after dozens and dozens of attempts of filling out the application for long term volunteering. They are extremely prejudice about who is accepted as a volunteer. They said I need to attend my local center which I have spent over 6 months at my local center, which was also a huge let down. It's basically meeting once a month with a group to do Shambhavi Mahamudra and then nobody even socializes as well as nothing beyond the quick practice then everyone leaves. Nothing outside of that. I have called the Ashram well over a dozen times as well to ask what I need to do to be a full time volunteer and they are clueless, the online application process is broken and there's no other option or help to becoming a volunteer. I literally take it as a sign that there is absolutely nothing there that will benefit me and I have much larger responsibilities to attend to by being in the real world, being an example for the ones who suffer, the ones that are rejected and ignored by Isha. 🙏 I have spent months at times sitting in meditation without moving except for food, bathroom and very little sleep, waking at 3:33am. Several times I have spent days staring at a dot on the wall and gotten over insanity but letting my vacuum become my favorite place to be, full on spirituality. I have watched every single video Sadhguru has out there (thousands) and abided by every single word he has to say. My sadhana has consisted of Shambhavi Mahamudra and countless other practices like 1 hour Aum chanting, 1 hour alternate nostril breathing, directional arm movement, neck practices, devi sadhana, all 4 chit shakti practices, Isha Kriya from day 1, and hours of mantras a day. I have attended numerous Kriya yoga classes. I have served my community in beautiful loving ways and kept myself on and on with activity, gardening, cleaning, work/ hard labor in extreme heat and snow. Started a plumbing business which became successful with an entire community in need of plumbing services. I have fasted for weeks at a time and now can survive with very little food. I and 100% conscious and unruled by all compulsive temptations. I have lived off of ground nuts, sprouts, bananas and raw honey for many months at a time while doing hard labor (log chainsawing and splitting). I have witnessed miracles where every person bows down to me. I'm pretty sure it's within very few (devotees) knowledge at the Isha Ashram what it's like to be a true devotee. I will continue to spread Sadhguru's love regardless of where I am in the world. I will always be there for the ones who suffer the most and I will never turn my back on them and reject them from Sadhguru's teachings. I am here to spread his teachings to everyone in need. I hope to see one day the IIIS to accept anyone to simply walk into the Ashram and be accepted into their programs without being prejudice of who they are. 🙏

Beautiful place indeed but mandir never offers Prasadam after charging for ling puja. As per religion, atleast fruits, dry fruits or crystal sugar should be offered to devotees.

Isha institute is very vibrant and rejuvenating both physically and psychologically. Linga Bhairavi temple is so unique and powerful place to spend time. Food at Isha institute is very rich in taste and nutritious. Yoga programs offered are very impactful and the entire place is loaded with energy, the moment you enter the premises of Isha institute we know it is quite rejuvenating and powerful place.

A truly peaceful and transformative place. The surroundings are beautiful, the food is nourishing, and the programs are deeply impactful. I felt calmer and more focused after my visit. Highly recommend for anyone looking for inner peace and clarity.

I never in my life have had such an experience. Words cannot explain the bliss and peace here! The people here are all so sweet and full of love. I cried so many times I cannot recall but it was tears of joy tears of release from trauma. Completing IE was a magical moment. The whole place is full of energy! Truly felt magical! If you’re thinking of going do not hesitate! It’s worth it! Your life will be changed forever!
