A powerful online program that can bring the body and mind to a vibrant state of health and wellbeing
How the five elements behave within your system makes the difference between wellness and illness, peace and turmoil, joy and misery.
Why Pancha Bhuta Kriya?
In Yoga, the five elements are seen as the basis of all creation, including the physical body. Purifying the five elements within the human system can revitalize one's health and wellbeing.
With the Pancha Bhuta Kriya, Sadhguru opens up a unique opportunity for everyone to benefit from the powerful Yogic process of Bhuta Shuddhi, or the cleansing of the five elements.
Pancha Bhuta Kriya is conducted in Dhyanalinga, a powerfully consecrated space, every Shivratri.
