Episode 70 | Premdās Rohan
from Reflections on Living Well Hosted by Broderick Rodell
In this week's episode Broderick is in conversation with Premdās Rohan. Premdās is a retired educator and teaches as a substitute teacher in the public schools. He has taught all ages of students from 2 years to the elderly. He combined his love of science and mathematics in the classroom with his love of yoga practice, teaching students mindfulness, breath awareness, precepts for living a virtuous life based on non-violence, and postures. Premdas studied Aṣṭāṅga Yoga with Baba Hari Dass from 1974 until his passing in 2018, starting in Miami, Florida. He is a senior teacher at Mount Madonna Center having taught there continuously from 1980 to the present. He is one of several ‘pujaris’ at the Hanuman Temple at Mount Madonna Center and has been instrumental in opening up ritual leads to women. He offers morning ‘arati’ at least two times a week and has done so since the temple was founded in 2003. He periodically conducts fire rituals and began offering vegan only versions of fire rituals in 2017. PD teaches philosophy classes through MMC and Watsonville Yoga both in person and online. He currently co-hosts MMC Bhagavad Gītā class which he has done for over 30 years, and a hybrid satsāṅg/yoga philosophy once a month at Watsonville Yoga.
