Yogeswar, earlier known as T.R. Shankar, was a journalist who worked with The Hindu for nearly thirty-five years. In his early forties, because of a persistent cold, he tried yoga and naturopathy and was amazed at the results. He started studying the theory of yoga and in about fifteen years became an authority on it. He established the Yoga Centre in Chennai and some of his pupils later became yoga teachers.
