Isha Foundation has offered two batches of programs as a part of this in-service training for the Civil Services. The first batch of officers underwent their training from Dec14th to Dec 18th 2015.

The 4 day program called Inner Engineering Leadership Program during which the participants were initiated into the powerful Shambhavi Maha Mudra Kriya and were also exposed to several leadership aspects.

Sadhguru himself addressed the group during the culmination of the program and spoke of various profound aspects of life and Yoga.

All were deeply touched by the Inner Engineering Program and the leadership modules handled by Sadhguru himself, so much so that one senior IAS officer at the end of program offered to come to Isha Foundation on Sabbatical for two years. Many Heads of Departments in attendance expressed that they would like to offer the program to their senior staff.

In many ways, this program was a major milestone for Isha Foundation in reaching out to the government sector.
