Alumni Speak Series: Modern Yoga Professionals and Ancient Yogic Principles.
On March 1, 2025, the Alumni Speak Series once again proved to be an enriching experience for students and faculty alike, as the event focused on “Modern Yoga Professionals and Ancient Yogic Principles.” The session was organized by Avahan - Dev Sanskriti Alumni Association in collaboration with the Faculty of Yoga and Health under the guidance of Dr. Chinmay Pandya, Pro-Vice Chancellor of Dev Sanskriti Vishwavidyalaya (DSVV).
The highlight of the event was the insightful address delivered by Mr. Nilachal Padmashanti, Founder of Live Holistic Wellness and a distinguished alumnus of DSVV. Mr. Padmashanti emphasized how modern yoga professionals can integrate the timeless teachings of ancient yogic traditions into their professional careers, while staying relevant in today’s fast-evolving wellness industry. His in-depth exploration of the subject not only deepened the understanding of yoga but also provided practical approaches for students aspiring to build a career in yoga and wellness.
Participants were actively engaged, posing questions and seeking advice from Mr. Padmashanti, who shared personal experiences and success stories that bridged the gap between tradition and contemporary professional practices. His talk shed light on the role of spirituality, discipline, and dedication in the development of a successful career as a modern yoga professional.
