Since ancient times, there have always been schools dedicated to preserving and teaching the very highest truths and mysteries of life — places where people could go to remove themselves from the distractions of day-to-day life and one-pointedly immerse themselves in a supportive, nurturing environment, emerging enriched and transformed. Today, and especially in the West, this tradition has been largely replaced by schools that almost exclusively emphasize rational learning. We find very few schools that focus on discovering the real nature of the Self. The Amrit Yoga Institute is such a place, dedicated to serving and awakening the very highest within all who come here with trainings, workshops, and spiritual lifestyle opportunities that nurture the soul. The Amrit Institute is situated on a secluded 6-acre property in a lush setting with a towering canopy of large, shady oaks, and formal gardens with Chattahoochee stone decks and walkways. The Main House and Recreation Lodge can accommodate small programs and a number of guests. Our lakefront property and beautiful grounds provide a tranquil, restful, natural setting ideal for restoring your health and reconnecting to the spiritual source

Ongoing Local Community Classes and Programs:
The Amrit Yoga Institute offers classes, satsangs and kirtans throughout the year to the public. Most programs are free to the public, although donations are gratefully accepted.

Gurudev Shri Amritji, Kamini Desai, PhD, Malay Desai, Nirali Lauren McCrea, and Hasu Marney Coulter will lead a rare pilgrimage into the heart of a living lineage, where mystical teachings become direct experience.

https://amrityoga.org/programs/2028/india-2026/

To enter the Kripalu Samadhi Mandir is to enter the living heart of a sacred tradition. Beneath this temple rests the body of Swami Kripalu, whose life was dedicated entirely to unbroken sadhana. The atmosphere is permeated with his presence, and the silence vibrates with devotion. Every stone carries the imprint of tapasya, and as you sit within this energy vortex you are drawn into a continuity of practice and realization that transcends time.

Morning and evening puja and aarti open the heart and connect you directly to the masters of the lineage, allowing their presence to be felt as a living force within you. Chanting and meditation within the Samadhi Mandir deepen this connection until you recognize yourself as part of the same stream of devotion that carried Bapuji into timeless awareness.

Through satsang with Gurudev, the clarity of Kamini’s teachings, and classes with Nirali and Hasu, the practices of I AM Yoga® and I AM Yoga Nidra™ become doorways into transformation. What begins in the stillness of practice extends into every part of daily life, so that the mystical becomes tangible, and the tangible becomes a pathway to the mystical.

Life at the ashram sustains this awakening through the rhythms of community: meals, chanting, kirtan, afternoon tea, and reflection in the natural beauty of the countryside. Visits to sacred sites, including the Kayavarohan Temple, the Krishna Cow Sanctuary where Gurudev first met Bapuji, and the childhood village of Pratappura, extend this immersion into the living story of the lineage.

This pilgrimage is more than travel to holy places, it is an initiation into a field of energy that shifts the trajectory of your spiritual life. Within the presence of the temples, teachers, and traditions of this lineage, you will discover the possibility of healing, transformation, and renewal at the deepest level of your being.

Gurudev Shri Amritji Elected to the World Yoga Congress Board
Yoga Vidya, Germany | April 25–28, 2025

We are pleased to share that Gurudev Shri Amritji was recently invited to the World Yoga Conference held at Yoga Vidya in Germany from April 25–28, 2025. He was joined by Kamini Desai, PhD, and Nirali Lauren McCrea, who were also invited to present at the Congress.

During the gathering, and in recognition of his global contributions to yoga, Gurudev was elected as a Board Member of the World Yoga Congress, where he will serve as a representative of the United States. Kamini Desai was also invited to join, representing Iceland.

This historic event brought together respected teachers, leaders, and practitioners from around the world to honor the diverse and living traditions of yoga. It was a profound moment for our lineage, as three generations came together to share and embody these teachings on an international platform.

We are grateful for the opportunity to witness and support this evolving legacy.
