Yoga

is an ancient system of Indian philosophy. The word Yoga is derived from the Sanskrit root yuj meaning union or to yoke or join. Through the study of yoga, the practitioner seeks greater union of the body, mind and spirit. Yoga has been practiced for thousands of years to bring a balance of strength, flexibility, relaxation and health to the student.

"Leap pf Faith" is a tribute film to Guruji and his teaching. 

"This 70 min. film spans 9 decades of Guruji’s life and over 70 yrs. of his practice and 
teachings. It shows him as Guru, Teacher, Husband, Father and Shishya – a multifaceted 
personality. The film contains new and extensive footage of Guruji’s practices, teachings, 
interviews, and daily life style. This helps to reveal the simple man behind such a complex 
and towering personality. The film is an endeavor to capture the essence of the man behind 
the phenomenon. It also contains fantastic early footage of his life as well as recreated 
scenes of his early childhood. Extensive research has gone into the making of this classic."
