At the age of 17 Swami Sri Vachananand attained sanyasi in
the Lingayat tradition situated in the Karnataka district and he has been doing
many yoga camps, giving lectures in all across the country and in the world. He
is thorough practitioner of Yoga. He not only practices Yoga but also teaches
people how to perfect Yoga by doing it correctly.
He was born in a religious family in north Karnataka, before
him his parents had three girls. Before his birth they went to see a Lingayat guru
who told them that they would have a baby boy, however he would be a sadhu or
yogi and would repudiate family life. At the point when the mother was
pregnant, the guruji gave "garbha-diksha" and told the mother that
all through the pregnancy she had to chant this mantra.
The child Vachananand was taught in various Lingayat schools and ashrams and given sanyasa after he completed school and became swami Vachananand. He is a brilliant individual, a true Yogi and every bit of second thinks to help people who are in need. He wants everyone to do Yoga and make their life fruitful by helping each other. He teaches Yoga and his philosophy in Hindi, English and Kannada.

also trying to make Yoga a compulsory subject in schools and colleges and
people are more concerned about their health
and fitness, Yoga gurus such as Baba Ramdev, Swami Vachananand, swami
Iyengar and many more conducts Yoga camps across the country. Swami Vachanananda conducted a long Yoga camp
