Origins & Calling
A Life
Shaped by the Hills
Born and raised in a traditional Hindu Rajput family in Palampur, Himachal Pradesh — the Land of Gods — Yogi Ajay Rana grew up surrounded by the quiet power of devotion. From childhood, he witnessed his parents practice Bhakti Yoga, and family pilgrimages to Rishikesh and Haridwar left a deep imprint: the sight of yogi sages standing in yogic postures on holy riverbanks sowed the seed for his lifelong path.
With an unquenchable thirst for spiritual knowledge, he journeyed alone to ashrams across northern and southern India — living simply, absorbing the four pillars of Bhakti, Gyan, Raja, and Karma yoga. Along the way he encountered diverse masters from whom he learned both classical and modern yoga for physical and spiritual well-being.
Since 2005, he has engaged deeply in Svadhyaya — self-study — moving ever inward in his practice. He is the founder of Beyond Power Yoga, with its ashram and head office in New Delhi.
