Adiyogi Song Lyrics Detailed Meaning | Kailash Kher | Isha Foundation | Sadhguru

Adiyogi consists of 2 words - Adi + Yogi. Adi means first and Yogi means the person who does the Yoga and meditation. Therefore this word means the first person to do the yoga which is Lord Shiva. In the Yogic ideology Lord Shiva is not considered as a God. He is considered as a great Yogi who has achieved the celibacy and discovered all the truths of life. The whole universe and truths of human life is hidden inside you. One can discover this truth by following a Yogi life. 


Door us aakash ki gehraiyon mein,
Ek nadi se beh rahe hain adiyogi,
Shunya sannate tapakte ja rahe hain,
Maun se sab keh rahe hain adiyogi,

Far away from in the sky's depth (Sky's depth here means visuals during deep meditation)
Adiyogi is flowing like a river 
Nothingness and silence drip all around ( At this stage the person is not aware of himself)
Without speaking everyone is uttering Adiyogi ( This is a place in spiritualism where continuous Bhajans and music is being played )

Yog ke sparsh se ab yogmaya karna hai tan man,
Saans saaswat sanan sananan,
Praan gunjan danan dananan,
Utare mujhme adiyogi,

By this touch of yoga , Let our body and mind immerse in yoga
Breath becomes eternal - sanan , sananan
Praan(Aatma) vibrates - danan , dananan
Adiyogi has stepped inside me

Yog dhara chalat chan chan,
Saans saaswat sanan sananan,
Praan gunjan danan dananan,
Utare mujhme adiyogi

Yoga is flowing - chan , chan
Breath becomes eternal - sanan , sananan
Praan vibrates - danan , dananan
Adiyogi has stepped inside me


So rha hai nritya ab usko jagao
Adiyogi yog damru dag dagao 
Srishti saari ho rhi bechain dekho 
Yog varsha mein mujhe aavo bhigawo 

Wake up the dance which is sleeping inside you 

Hey Adiyogi please make the sound of damru

The world is becoming restless 

Come and soak me in the rain of yoga

Pees do astitva mera,
Aur kar do choora choora,
Purn hone do mujhe aur,
Hone do ab poora poora,

Chop my existence
And break it into pieces
Let me be absolute
And now let me be whole

Bhasm wali rasm kar do adiyogi,
Yog utsav rang bhar do adiyogi,
Baj uthe yeh mann sitari,
Jhanan jhanan jhanan jhanan

Adiyogi do the ritual of Bhasam(Bhasam is an ancient Vedic ritual where the dried wood ash is applied on forehead)
And fill me with the colours of Yoga
Sitar(An ancient Indian music instrument) will play in my mind 
Making sound of - jhanan , jhanan 

Saans saaswat sanan sananan,
Praan gunjan danan dananan..
Saans saaswat sanan sananan,
Praan gunjan danan dananan

Breath becomes eternal - sanan , sananan
Praan(Aatma) vibrates - danan , dananan
Breath becomes eternal - sanan , sananan
Praan vibrates - danan , dananan

Utare mujhme Adiyogi,
Yog dhara chalat chan chan,
Saans saaswat sanan sananan,
Praan gunjan danan dananan,
Utare mujhme adiyogi
Utare mujhme adiyogi

Adiyogi has stepped inside me
Yoga is flowing - chan , chan
Breath becomes eternal - sanan , sananan
Praan vibrates - danan , dananan
Adiyogi has stepped inside me
Adiyogi has stepped inside me
