The philosophy

Looking within, living in balance

The ideas behind every class, consultation and programme at Aadiyog, drawn from traditional Yogic philosophy and from Vineet’s own practice.

Yog and Yoga

Two words, one path

Yog

The state

A state, and a path, towards ultimate inner balance.

Yoga

The discipline

The practical discipline that leads there, practised through physical, mental and spiritual methods.

Awareness within

Many difficulties are not solved only by changing the world outside. Awareness of one’s inner condition is where change begins.

This is the central message of Aadiyog. It is also where Vineet’s own practice began: as a child in Rishikesh, sitting quietly and observing within.

Balance

Body, mind and emotions together

Physical, emotional and mental wellbeing are connected. The ultimate aim of practice is balance across all three.

How we live

What shapes balance

Food, daily routine, environment, stress and a lack of connection with nature can all contribute to imbalance. That is why practice at Aadiyog continues into how one lives.

Each person is different

The practice is adapted to the person

Yoga and treatment at Aadiyog are adapted to each person’s condition, never delivered as one programme for everyone. Vineet’s teaching returns to the same points: self-awareness, individual needs and balance, rather than the physical body alone.

The long-term aim is greater awareness and understanding of one’s own physical, emotional and mental state.

· Learning the philosophyt

Classes in Yoga philosophy and Vedic knowledge

Vineet learned Yoga philosophy the traditional way: from 2005 he lived with his teacher, studying philosophy and practice, self-awareness and the connection with nature.

Today he teaches classes in Yoga philosophy and ancient Vedic knowledge.

Begin with a conversation

Every practice at Aadiyog starts in the same place: a personal consultation to understand your condition, your daily life and what you are looking for. From there, you decide together what comes next.
