SAHAJA YOGA IN SASKATCHEWAN
Sahaja Yoga came to Saskatchewan about 25 years ago, thanks to a devoted yogini who led Self realization programs on her own for many years. Over time, more yogi families arrived, and newcomers were warmly welcomed into the collective. Today, the province has two main collectives in Saskatoon and Regina, where every gathering, whether meditation, pujas, or simply sharing time together, is cherished.

The people of Saskatchewan are warm hearted and connected to Mother Earth, inspiring yogis to share Sahaja Yoga with the wider community. Through a partnership with the Regina Public Library, several weekly programs are now offered, alongside an online program and occasional Self realization events.
If you travel across the Prairies, please stop by. We would love to make you feel at home.
MUSIC THERAPY LED BY A 12 YEAR OLD YUVA
Recently in Whitby, Ontario, our collective experienced a truly special class led by 12 year old yuva Aaradhya.
With natural confidence and sweetness, she guided us in music therapy, singing the notes for each chakra, moving through the scale and into AUM. She held the room with complete attention. When she demonstrated how she practices her scales at home, a deep silence filled the space and the vibrations flowed strongly.
She concluded the program with silent meditation accompanied by an instrumental version of Bramha Shodhile, played on the violin by her music teacher, Sahaja yogi Milind Dalal.
To deepen the experience, we also listened to short excerpts from Shri Mataji speaking about singing on the chakras, presented through SY Scandinavia’s Sahaja Yoga Going Deeper Singing on Chakras.
The program concluded in a beautiful atmosphere. Many of us stayed back, sharing Erna’s tea and warm conversation, simply enjoying the vibrations and each other’s company. We feel deeply blessed to witness such young talent blossoming within our Whitby collective, and we extend our heartfelt thanks to Aaradhya’s mother Pratchy for her loving guidance and support.

BARRIE WOMEN'S
SHOW
A Beautiful moment from Barrie Women's Show 2026 where many seekers received their Self realization. The program was amazing. Many Sahaja Yogis came to support the self realization program even though the weather condition wasn't that good. As usual our Dear Sister Ankita and her lovely family invited all the Sahaj yogis to their home. It was a blessed weekend for us to be part of this beautiful event.
VANCOUVER WELLNESS SHOW
At this year’s Wellness Show in Vancouver, Sahaja Yogis from the BC collective hosted a Self realization booth. Over 12,000 people attended, many stopping by to learn about Sahaja Yoga, ask questions, and try guided meditation. We are deeply grateful to all who came with an open heart, and to our volunteers who made the booth warm, welcoming, and full of positive energy.

Benefits of Sahaja Yoga: Scientific Insights & Spiritual Understanding
Researchers in Spain have recently discovered that individuals who practise Sahaja Yoga Meditation over the long term have greater grey matter volume in their brains than those who do not meditate.
See here the full paper: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33370272/
Notably, these increases are most pronounced in brain regions associated with attention and emotional self-control.
To date, no other meditation technique or practice has demonstrated such a marked increase in grey matter volume.
For Sahaja yogis, this scientific revelation is not entirely surprising. Many of us have already come to know how meditation improves our attention and benefits our emotional being.
From the moment of receiving Self realization, Shri Mataji has opened for Her children the door to the absolute, granting them the pure knowledge and the potential for spiritual evolution. Meditation stands as the most crucial practice for maintaining balance and drawing closer to Her vibrations. Simply sitting in meditation can bring about the transformation we need.
We would love to hear from you.
