The Aim of Yoga is to unite one’s individual consciousness with universal consciousness resulting in a state of peace. At the core of yoga science are the eight-limbs (Ashtanga Yoga), compiled by Sage Patanjali between 200 BC and 200 AD. This timeless system includes living a positive and healthy lifestyle (yama, niyama), postures for toning the body (asana), breathing practices for calming the mind (pranayama), methods for withdrawing the mind from outer perceptions (pratyahara), and progressive states of meditation (dharana, dhyana, samadhi).

THE HANUMAN FELLOWSHIP MISSION STATEMENT

The Hanuman Fellowship, inspired by the example and teachings of Baba Hari Dass,

is dedicated to the principles and practices of yoga.

By means of Sadhana (spiritual practice), Karma Yoga (selfless service),

and Satsang (supportive community), we aspire to create an environment

for the attainment of peace

“The aim of life is to achieve eternal peace which is achieved by developing positive qualities. If the aim is set, the path unfolds by itself.“

—Baba Hari Dass

Yoga at Mount Madonna

Preserving an Ancient LineageBABA HARI DASS (1923-2018) Teacher and Inspiration

Baba Hari Dass was a silent monk whose life of discipline, yoga, and love, has inspired people around the world. Babaji, as he was affectionately called, was first and foremost a master yogi, having practiced the disciplines of yoga from childhood. His lifelong example of peacefulness encouraged regular practice of his teachings.

Born near Almora, India Babaji left home at the tender age of eight to begin his study and practice. Before coming to the USA in 1971 at the request of several young students, he completed the traditional vows of a Vairagi Vaishnav (qualified non-dualism). It is from this classical grounding that Babaji taught ancient scriptures of Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, Bhagavad Gita, and Samkhya Karika as well as the philosophy and practices of Ashtanga Yoga, Karma Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, Gyan Yoga, and Tantra Yoga.

For ten months each year Babaji taught, encouraged, worked, and played alongside the Mount Madonna community he inspired. Two months of the year he would return to India to give guidance and energy to caring for the children of Sri Ram Ashram, the home for destitute children which he founded in 1982.

THE HANUMAN FELLOWSHIP

Hanuman Fellowship (HFS) is a not-for-profit public benefit corporation founded in 1974. HFS owns the land and has developed the facilities that house MMC, MMI, Mount Madonna School and Sri Ram Foundation. HFS is governed by a Board of Directors and has overall responsibility for policy decisions at Mount Madonna Center.

“When the mind is silent the heart talks.

The language of the heart is Love, Compassion and Peace.
