About Swami Jyotihananda

Swami Jyotihananda first tasted the sweetness of Swami Radha’s teachings during the Ten Days of Yoga, in 1977. In 1982 she started the first Radha Centre in Calgary, and for the next 15 years was involved in teaching in Calgary, England and Europe. She moved to the Ashram in 1998 and was initiated into sanyas in 2005. She brings a love of the teachings of Swami Radha and a deep trust in how they can radically change people and help them to evolve.

About Daya

Daya was first introduced to Swami Radha’s teaching in 1983 in Lethbridge where she studied with Swami Radhananda.  She has offered classes in Lethbridge for a number of years and is happy to be able to bring the Light and teachings into the world.  Daya is now at the Ashram offering Karma Yoga for an extended time.  She loves being part of the Ashram and world wide community that are connected through Swami Radha’s teachings.
