Swami Shivananda
Namaste
In my eyes Swami Shivananda is the most tragic figure regarding commercialized Yoga and other gimmickry in the West, a Yoga that is reduced to physical exercises only.
Swami Shivananda has become the hallmark of a Yoga factory.
In Germany you can become a (so called) Yoga teacher within 4 weeks and after this you can found your own (so called) Yoga shool and advertise with name and image of this Guru you have never seen.
Most of these Yoga teachers have never been to India, have not any relation/respect for India and its eternal wisdom, but they call themselves devotees of Swami Shivananda just to make money with his name.
This is Europe's largest provider of Yoga, Meditation and Ayurveda located in Germany misusing Swami Shivananda.
