Every action that we take today can make a difference tomorrow!Malaysian Yoga Society (MYS) follows strictly the path of karma yoga which promotes the experience of living in harmony through one’s own daily activities and selfless service. MYS works towards uplifting the life of others, especially the socially disadvantaged and underprivileged, through teaching of yoga. Thus the Yoga Home for children is a seedling of Karma yoga by members and friends of MYS. In July 2007, the Malaysian Yoga Society announced the official location of MYS Yoga Home in Batu Arang. Blessed by the generosity of a donor and through the dedicated perseverance of MYS founder,Yoga Master Mani Sekaran and several members, the recently renovated premises of the new MYS Yoga Home for the less fortunate was ready for viewing. A sturdy red bricked bungalow set on a quarter acre piece of land, MYS Yoga Home is off the beaten path and just 45 minutes drive away from the K.L. city bustle. The tranquil town of Batu Arang is a breath of fresh air (with whiffs of ripening fruits from surrounding orchards and freshly baked traditional mooncakes from the local bakery), full of potential as an ideal and wholesome setting for the Yoga Home. Across the road from a primary school, the Yoga Home has 3 modestly sized rooms, with sufficient space to shelter comfortably 12 children and 1 small room for the caretaker and an assistant. There is a spacious kitchen to prepare meals for a large family and plenty of ground for children to stretch their legs for yoga, gardening and other activities. Children will be provided with basic formal education and their everyday necessities while yoga lessons are routinely incorporated in their daily learning to help them gain clarity and balance mentally and emotionally. The MYS is currently ready to accept socially disadvantaged children under its roof.
