Meet Our New Yogis

During this year's Thai Pusam festival Adinatha and Rajanatha took Yogi vows and supplicated their aspirations in front of God, Guru and Acharyas. They read from the Yogi addendum of their sacred vowbook, received new robes, beads, a bamboo staff of tapas or danda, and the sacred thread called yajnopavita to be worn over the shoulder.
This also marks the time for a two-year retreat away from world events, family and over-externalization. The following captions in the slideshow are quoted from the Yogi Addendum from which the two read aloud for all to hear.
