Whle in his early forties, because of a persistent cold, he tried yoga and Naturopathy and was amazed at the results.

Among Yogeswar’s books, Textbook of Yoga was prescribed as a standard textbook for the Degree/Diploma courses in fourteen Indian universities. Despite requests from some foreign countries to establish yoga centers there, he preferred to develop them in India. He trained many doctors and was a consultant in many hospitals. The ESI Hospital, Chennai, opened a yoga wing due to his efforts and he was a yoga instructor at Bharathiya Vidya Bhavan, Channai, for a long time. He passed away when he was eighty-three.
