Rishikesh's identity is eternally bound to ancient Hindu mythology. For thousands of years, the highest peaks of the Himalayas have stood as silent witnesses to the deep penance performed by sages. The story of the Yoga Capital of the World is carved by the River Ganges, believed to possess a soul-purifying energy.
The reformer Adi Shankaracharya established Rishikesh as a retreat for Vedantic philosophy and meditation, turning caves into a sanctuary for Hatha Yoga.
Swami Sivananda founded the Divine Life Society, shifting the focus to selfless service and global spiritual awakening for seekers worldwide.
In 1968, The Beatles arrived at Chaurasi Kutia ashram, sparking an international obsession with authentic Indian yoga culture.
Swami Satyananda Saraswati bridged ancient yogic discipline with modern lifestyles, making Rishikesh a global hub.
Today, practitioners visit to learn Hatha Yoga in Rishikesh and study the intricate layers of yoga philosophy. The town remains a living museum of authentic yoga tradition where every moment is an evolution.
At Sukha Yogashala, we carry forward this lineage. The yogic culture of India is heard in the temple bells and practiced on the banks of Mother Ganges—a transmission of power that has remained authentic for centuries.
