The Scientific Yoga Research Center

With his exceptional training and exposure to yoga under revered gurus, Swami Kuvalyananda sought to revolutionize the global outlook towards this ancient Indian tradition. He laid the spirited foundation for Kaivalyadhama by establishing the Scientific Research Department (SRD) in 1924.

SRD became the first and most pioneering initiative in yoga research at the time of its commencement, to reinforce as a science and make the world aware of its benefits.

In 1988, SRD earned recognition as an Institute of Scientific Research by the Scientific & Industrial Research Organization (SIRO), Ministry of Science & Technology, Government of India.
