Who is Bikram?
"Born in Calcutta in 1946, Bikram began Yoga at the age of 4 with India's most renown physical culturist of that time, Bishnu Ghosh, younger brother of Parmahansa Yoganana (author of the Seminole The Autobiography of a Yogi). Bikram practiced Yoga at least four to six hours a day at Ghosh's College of Physical Education in Calcutta. At the age of thirteen, Bikram won the National India Yoga Championship. He was undefeated the following three years and retired as the undisputed All-India National Yoga Champion. At seventeen, an injury to his knee during a weight-lifting accident brought the prediction from leading European doctors that he would never walk again. Not accepting their pronouncement, he had himself carried back to Bishnu Ghosh's school, for he knew that if anyone could help to heal his knee, it was his teacher. Six months later, his knee had totally recovered. Ghosh was a celebrated physical culturist and the first to scientifically document Yoga's ability to cure chronic physical ailments and heal the body.Bikram later on devised the 26 postures sequence, which work irrespective of age groups. These 26 postures series has a profound healing power on your body and mind.
