PRANA JAGRITI Teacher Training In Yoga And Meditation A 4D Teacher Training with Rajiv Kapil
22 September 2023 – 24 January 2024, Soundwill Plaza – Causeway Bay
Prana Jagriti is “awakening of one’s life energy”. The practice of Yoga and Meditation helps in this awakening.
Correct practice of the techniques requires a proper understanding of the roots of the technique along with its correct execution. Philosophical and practical sides of the disciplines of Yoga and Meditation are linked together and complement each other, and better understanding of one helps the understanding of the other.
This committed and disciplined training programme:
- Gives students a comprehensive grasp of the knowledge and teachings of Yoga and Meditation
- Enlivens the philosophical concepts through relevant practice and experience
With the above purpose, the course is divided into 4 Dimensions:
Yoga Philosophy: Yoga Darshan
This dimension sheds light on the Yogic Vision of the Upanishads and the Vedic Tradition of Yoga covering the key principles and concepts of the knowledge of the Vedas and the Upanishads. It introduces all the different kinds of Yoga through philosophical and practical aspects.
Yoga Psychology
This dimension focuses on Yoga teachings about the mind and its function. Also, practical Yogic ways of managing and controlling the mind with an understanding of the Yogic view of the human mind and personality.
Applied Yogic Science
Yoga Therapy
Yoga as a science of preventive, curative and promotive modality of health and healing. Key principles and concepts of the teachings of Yoga and how they act as agents of health and healing will be explored.
Practice
This dimension looks at the practical side of the entire body of Yoga knowledge and introduces a vast array of Yogic practices for health, healing and uplifting.
The 4 Dimensions look at Yoga from a wholistic point of view and explores its application as both an art and a science of the body and mind, as an effective means of health management and therapy, and as a practical technique to uplift and expand our consciousness, harmonising the inner and outer dimensions of our personality.
It is a Teacher Training that provides a comprehensive understanding of Yoga and Meditation and their interconnectedness.

Kapil began his spiritual journey at the age of 14, with an interest to understand and control the mind. As he started experimenting with different techniques of controlling and relaxing the mind, his interest in meditation grew. This interest made him seek out books and his first spiritual readings included books by J. Krishnamurthi and Osho. Considering them his first teachers, Kapil began to practise the teachings of Krishnamurthi and Osho. As his practice grew so did his experience and this made the practice of meditation an integral part of his life.
Kapil completed his formal education in Hotel Management and started working in Hotel Sales. It was during this time that he took a decision to quit a rewarding career in Hotel Management and follow his main interest and passion and systematically study the workings of the human mind and meditation. Kapil completed a Master's in Yoga Psychology with a Gold Medal from the Bihar School of Yoga Munger under the guidance of Paramhamsa Swami Niranjananda Saraswati and other senior monks and teachers. It was there that he received his spiritual name Kapilmurti and was initiated into Karma Sanyas by Paramhamsa Swami Niranjananda Saraswati.
Kapil started teaching Yoga in 2001 in India. In 2010, Kapil joined PURE Yoga and is currently working as a Senior Yoga Instructor. Kapil draws from the timeless teachings of the Yoga Sutras and the Bhagavad Gita and brings out the psychological relevance of Yoga. When he teaches asanas, Kapil emphasises the universal principles of alignment with an awareness of the breath to access the deeper dimensions of asana practice. His classes are filled with enthusiasm, energy and quiet moments of insight cultivation with a constant remembrance of the ultimate aim of Yoga.
