Dr. M.A. JAYASHREE and Prof. M.A. NARASIMHAN come from Mysore, Karnataka, in Southern India. They were born and brought up in a traditional Indian brahman family environment. After starting their studies in the scientific field, they became more and more involved in the understanding of Indian philosophy and scriptures. This led them to achieve a deep knowledge of both Yoga and Sanscrit, which they speak fluently.

Dr. M.A. JAYASHREE
took her phd in Sanscrit, of which she has become a popular teacher by working in several educational institutions of Mysore (College and University) alongside her private tuition to Yoga students. She has also studied the traditional Indian music system, and her wonderful voice has allowed her to become a recognized singer. She has featured several CDs on Veda, Yoga Sutra, Sloka and Sanscrit poems.

Prof M.A. NARASIMHAN has dedicated his whole life to research and understanding. After his institutional studies he became a disciple of Maharishi Yogi, and followed his master for 12 years with great devotion helping him spread Transcendental Meditation throughout India and the world. He held training courses and taught in jails, asylums, oncologic clinics and simply small rural villages where life conditions are the toughest. Simplicity and humbleness are their main distinctive features, making them truly great masters, exceptional carriers of the traditional Indian knowledge trough a clear, understandable, honest and spontaneous message, which goes beyond intellect and hits straight at the heart.

They are the founders of the Anantha Research Foundation, Sanskrit & Yoga Research Foundation, Mysore www.anantharesearch.org, whose purpose is to bring the wisdom of traditional Indian teachings to contemporary students all over the world. This Italian event is part of a European tour touching eight cities.

The workshop is open to EVERYONE: this extraordinary event aims to be a moment of sharing of YOGA where UNION, its real and only purpose, can be perceived and experienced by all the attendants regardless of culture and chosen practice or tradition. The universal nature of Yoga through the teachings of Patanjali and the Bhagavad Gita will be the main subject matters.
