- Adiyogi Alayam - You will be picked up from your hotel in the morning and driven to Isha Yoga Centre that is about 18 miles distance from Coimbatore.
The first thing that catches your attention when you arrive at the Center is the 112 feet high bust of the Hindu God Shiva, called Adiyogi. The Guinness Book of World Records has declared it to be the world’s largest bust sculpture. The statue is named Adiyogi, which means “the first yogi”, because Shiva is known as the originator of yoga. The height of the statue, 112 feet, symbolizes the 112 ways to attain liberation from the cycle of death and rebirth that are mentioned in yogic culture. The number also represents the 112 energy points in the human body.
The Center also has a Dhyanalinga, a unique energy form kept under a pillarless 250,000 brick dome. It is the venue for daily sessions of chanting. Experience the powerful vibrations of this unique structure by spending some time in silent meditation here. It is a symbol of the universality of all religions.
At the end take lunch (beverage excluded) at a local restaurant. After lunch you will be driven back to Coimbatore and dropped off at your hotel.
