Our body has the power to cure the dis-

eases. That power has to be strengthened in or-

der to relieve the diseases. This is possible through

natural therapy. The body is made up of five ele-

ments, namely, earth, space, water, air and fire.

The person can become healthy and disease free

through the correct combination of these five ele-

ments. Natural therapy is based on this basic sci-

entific principle.

A world level natural therapy center has been es-

tablished at Yog Gram with the objective of making

people completely disease free by using Yog, Ayurved

and natural therapy under the guidance of Yogrishi

Swami Ramdev Ji Maharaj. Yog-natural- Panchakarma

medical and research center was inaugurated at Yog

Gram as a part of Patanjali Yogpeeth Trust with the

blessings of Swami Ramdev Ji Maharaj for the protec-

tion, development and research of ancient Indian health

building systems like Yog and natural therapy. Swami Ji

said that allopathy treats the diseases but not the men-

tal diseases. He said that mental diseases pollute both

the body and society. The mental disease is more harmful

than physical diseases. Swami Ji said that both physical

and mental diseases can be cured through five elements,

namely, earth, space, water, air and fire and it is simple

and easy.

Renowned nature therapist Dr. Nagendra Kumar

‘Niraj’ told that natural therapy is very simple and easy.

Regular treatment can cure dreadful diseases. He said

that the Yog-natural therapy Panchakarma therapy re-

search center established at Yog Gram is a unique cen-

ter in the world. Around 76 different types of natural

remedies are available using the five elements along

with Yog and Panchakarma in order to cure serious

diseases. It is world-class center equipped with latest

modern technology.

Shankaracharya Swami Satyamitranand Ji Maharaj

said that Swami Ramdev Ji Maharaj is like Hercules

who is flowing the Yog Ganga in the whole world. The

natural therapy system adopted in this natural environ-

ment is simply matchless. An ill person can easily re-

coup his or her health in this wonderful environment.

The establishment of Yog-natural-Panchakarma

medical and research center at Yog Gram is like re-

gaining the lost glory, honor and prestige of India. The

one and only one center having the combination of all

the three treatment systems – Yog, Panchakarma and

nature therapy was dedicated to the nation. At a time

when India is incurring an expenditure of around 100

crores rupees every year in the name of health ser-

vices this center is offering medical services to the

weaker sections of the society at very nominal prices.

Traditional and modern medical services have been

excellently combined at Yog Gram. The patients will

have a wonderful experience as well as rejuvenate them-

selves.

It has all facilities, a long walking track to get pure

CHANGES IN LIFE WITH YOG

AND PRANAYAM

Respected Swami Ramdev Ji

Maharaj,

Namaskar!

I am a resident of Bakthiarpur,

Patna in Bihar. I am 57 year old and

weigh 86 kilos. There was 90 per-

cent blockage in two arteries three

years back and two studs have been

fitted through angioplasty. I incurred

huge expenditure but with negligible

benefit. I noticed difficulty in climb-

ing up stairs and walking even 100

meters like before.

I started practicing Yog,

pranayam and exercise under the

supervision of Yog teacher at

Patanjali Yogpeeth. Now I can take

five complete rounds of Patanjali and

my weight has reduced by five ki-

los. I have reaped lot of benefits.

Swami Ji, this has been possible

only with Yog and pranayam. My life

has changed completely. I am thank-

ful to Patanjali Yogpeeth.

Yours sincerely,

PRESCRIPTION SYMBOL SHOULD

BE CHANGED

Respected Swami Ramdev Ji

Maharaj,

Namaskar!

The medical practitioners use

the symbol RX for writing prescrip-

tion and Horess and Jupiter gods are

remembered. This should be re-

placed with some Indian, cultural and

religious symbol. In this respect

ayurvedic admirer Shri Nihal Ajmera

has proposed the symbol èkm for the

doctors and done a commendable

work. Yogacharya Swami Ramdev

Ji Maharaj has also appreciated this

effort.

In the letter, /m ^/* implies I

am praying lord Dhanvantari for

quick recovery of the patient and

^m* means I am prescribing this

treatment.

If all the doctors write this sym-

bol on the prescriptions with this good

feeling in their minds then they will

win the hearts of the patients as well

as remember lord Dhanvantari ev-

ery time.

Yours sincerely,

PRANAYAM RELIEVED ASTHMA

Respected Ramdev Babaji,

Namaskar!

I am 56 years old and have

been suffering from asthma for the

last 40 years. I am practicing

pranayam since four years and feel

healthy. I get asthma attacks in be-

tween during winter season. I am

teaching Yog for the last three years

and everybody is reaping the ben-

efits.

MANKIND IS GRATEFUL TO

SWAMI JI FOR HIS NOBLE

WORK

Respected Swami Ji Maharaj,

Namaskar!

The health awareness mission

that you have started at national level

for the last so many years has a posi-

tive impact on the society. Yog prac-

tice is an ancient tradition of our

country. You have given it interna-

tional recognition and we Indians will

be always indebted and grateful to

you for this noble work.

These days, adulteration is

strengthening its roots in our coun-

try, which is proving dangerous for

the public health. The corrupt trad-

ers are adulterating the edible things

and earning huge profits. They are

involving in serious crime against the

nation and the society. We can see

adulteration in sweets, milk, oil, tur-

meric powder, lentils and other food

items. There are laws to control this

but only laws are not sufficient. The

government should set up special

force or STF in order to control adul-

teration and carry on awareness

programs through non-government

organizations. This nexus should

face social boycott. The youth

should proactive steps in this area.

The nation and society should be

freed from this adulteration because

it is resulting in several serious dis-

eases.

I am practicing Yog and

pranayam daily and experiencing

immense happiness. People should

also develop the habit of practicing

Yog and lead a healthy life. I am

inspiring my friends and relatives to

practice Yog because it is not for

any particular sect, community, reli-

gion or caste. It is for the benefit of

mankind. Yog should be included in

the school and college curriculum

because this will improve the future

generations and increase India pride.

Swami Ji you are like a savior for

this pious work and I thank you a

million times.

Yours sincerely,

` YOG SANDESH-ENGLISH ` 10

-Rameshwar Sharma ‘Ramubhaiya’

Meaning: The poet says that those who

have taken birth in this land they should

bow down in front of motherland. The

mother blesses people of all religions in

equal manner and gives good fruits, water.

We have the duty to sing in its honor and

this feeling can be noticed in this slogan as

well.

The poet is saying to look into its nights

glittering with moonlight, the waterfalls,

the greenery, the trees and the nature. We

have to understand our relations with the

motherland. Its salt, its air is filled in our

body. This feeling is expressed in this slo-

gan.

Yogrishi Swami Ramdev believes that Vandemataram is not a prayer

but a salute of a true patriotic citizen to the nation. Vandemataram liter-

ally means, salute to the mother.

Swami Ji says that a citizen chants it by believing that his country is

everything for him and takes the vow to sacrifice everything for the sake

of the country. He expresses love towards his nation by chanting this

and feels proud.

Vandemataram was chanted by both Hindus and Muslims during

Indian freedom struggle as a slogan. They fulfilled the dreams of mar-

tyrs and released motherland from the clutches of British rule. It does

not involve idol worship.

Our motherland is beautiful, we are its

children and we have a deep relation with

it. Mother India is not the name of a stone,

Vandemataram is a tribute, and it is not

prayer. The poet is requesting not to throw

back the boat in storm once again. (Not to

throw back independence)

The poet expresses that Vandemataram is

not an attack on any religion and there is

no need to force anybody to chant it. It is

not a sect or caste. It is the sound of the

conch shell blown by our freedom fighters.

It is a sound of freedom, a blessing of sages

and seers, and one should teach the chil-

dren from childhood. He says that our rec-

ognition is hidden in its recognition.

Kauravas.

(20-23) Later Arjuna saw the army of Kaurava.

When he saw that time for mutual fight has come, he

said to lord Krishna, ‘Oh Lord! Take my chariot in

between both the armies so that I can see the people

standing in this war with the aim of fighting and I can

also see that who all are the dear ones who have gathered

here to fight. (the flag on Arjuna’s chariot

had an impression of Hanuman and

hence it was also known as Kapidhwaj).

grandmother, brother, son, grandparents, friends, father-

in-law and dear ones are in both the armies. He saw

that all the people gathered here are our relatives and

he had to fight them. He was extremely sad and

disheartened. He said with a sad voice:

gathered here for war, I am shivering, my bow is falling

down from my hands, and my whole body is burning. I

am not able to stand, my mind is wandering, and I am

feeling giddy. All the things are appearing to be adverse.

What should I do? I do not see any welfare in killing all

my close and dear ones.’

Lotua fg dFka gRok lqf[ku% L;ke ek/oAA37AA(32-37) Hey Krishna! I do neither have the desire

to win nor aim to get kingdom and happiness. Hey

Govind! I do not have the desire to enjoy riches or to

live. All those for whom the riches were desired have

sacrificed the desire for life and wealth and standing

here to fight. Our gurus, elderly people, grandfather,

uncle, father-in-law, son, grandchildren are all standing

to kill us, but I do not desire to kill these people even for

the three worlds then what do we talk about this

kingdom? How will we benefit by killing these Kauravas.

We will face the curse of murdering our own dear and

close ones. Therefore, it is not correct to kill our relatives

Kauravas. Hey Madhav! How will we attain happiness

by killing our relatives?’

According to classics, there are six types of

criminals. They are, those who come to burn the house,

those who give poison, those who kill with weapons,

those who rob wealth, those who kill women, those who

destroy fields. According to Vashisht Smriti (3-16) and

Manu Smriti (8-350-351) there is no sin in killing such

type of people.

(38-40) those who lose their mind due to greed do

not see any sin in destroying the family or deceiving

friends. But, I can see that destroying a family is a big

sin. Therefore, Hey Janardan! How can my mind be

free from this point? Should we also become sinners

along with sinners. The ancient family values also get

destroyed when family is destroyed. When family values

are destroyed the family comes under the shadow of

irreligion.

(40-45) Hey Krishna! The women deviate from their

path and become corrupt when irreligion increases in

the family. When women become corrupt the progeny

also becomes corrupt and loses its character. When the

future generations lose their character, the family goes

to hell and their ancestors become defamed. When

ancient traditions and rituals get vanished, the elders go

to hell. Corruption in family leads to destruction of family

and caste and those who lose their family values live in

hell. Hey Krishna!, we have been hearing like this.

(45-46) Just see! We are getting inspired by greed

and are planning to kill our close ones through war.

Instead of this it would have been better if I had

surrendered weapons and stop thinking about the

destruction of Kauravas and if they these Kaurava's

kill me in the battlefield.

47) Sanjay said, Hey Dhritarashtra! Arjuna said

these words and put down his weapons, bow and arrow,

he became sad and went and sat in his chariot. (as per

the tradition the charioteer was supposed to stand and

fight the war). It was a clear indication for shri Krishna

Page 13: Yog Sandesh

` YOG SANDESH-ENGLISH ` 13

that Arjuna who was attached to his relatives was in

deep grief with the possibility of losing his dear ones

and has deviated from war.

This conversation between Krishna and Arjuna took

place in the battle field of Kurukshetra, where the armies

of Kaurava and Pandavas were standing in front of

each other. The Pandavas were forced to decide to

fight against Kauravas in order to protect their self

respect with the aim of taking revenge against the

atrocities of Kauravas, to protect their rights, and when

all their proposals to convince Kauravas failed so much

so that Duryodhana refuses the proposal of shri Krishna

to give five villages to Pandavas and says that they

would not give even a piece of land equal to a needle.

Kauravas troubled the Pandavas to a great extent,

Pandavas faced lot of atrocities, and were deprived of

their rights. King Dhritarashtra encouraged the wrong

deeds of his son , Duryodhana due to attachment. These

facts are described in the Mahabharata. The decision

of Pandavas to fight a war against Kaurava’s with

respect to all these incidents is a justifiable decision with

the purpose of protecting their self respect and identity.

Arjuna falls into the trap of attachment in the

battlefield that he will use weapons and kill those

relatives, friends and dear ones to whom he was so

close, he had grown up in the laps of Bhishma, he had

learnt the usage of weapons from his gurus, and other

relatives. He was thinking all these things and did not

want to live, no matter Kaurava’s would find him alone

without weapon and kill him. He became confused and

disillusioned with the myths of sins-virtues, dutifulness-

non dutifulness, hell-heaven. He surrenders his weapons

and decides not to fight the war.

This world is full of struggle. The man has to struggle

at every step, the man has to protect his own rights and

also fulfill his duties towards the society, nation and entire

mankind. Man is the most superior creature of this earth.

Other creatures only enjoy and satisfy themselves, they

are forced to lead their lives as per the facilities provided

by the nature. But it is not true with respect to man.

Man is a thoughtful creature, he is free to work and is

dependent on mental condition. He has special

responsibilities being a supreme social animal. He can

improve his life and become happy, at the same time he

can fall down to a very level and make his life a hell,

where he will find only sorrows and troubles.

The man has to create balance between his rights

and responsibilities. Many times he has to choose

between two responsibilities, at that time it becomes

difficult to decide as to which responsibility is more

important. Majority of the people fall into the trap of

attachment and take wrong decision and lose mental

balance. Many times they become confused and foolish,

even a warrior like Arjuna. He had also become

disillusioned and developed affection towards his close

ones. In such a time, the advice of Krishna will alone

help him to take a right decision. Not only Arjuna, Gita

is a philosophy of life for every man, it is the biggest

message to maintain mental balance and perform ones

duties selflessly.

Special thought on background of Gita:

It was clarified in the beginning of this narration

that Gita is the summary of Upanishads, this nectar like

Gita is available for all the people with inquisitiveness

like Arjuna. In olden days, there was a tradition to

present the summary of the book at the end in the form

of a resolution. Here the summary of each chapter of

Gita has been presented with the same theme. The

resolution is¬ rr~ lfnfr Jhen~Hkxonxhrklwifu"kRlq czãfo|k;ka;ksx'kkL=ks Jhd`".kktqZulaokns¿tZqufo"kkn;ksxks uke izeFkks¿è;k;%AThis resolution has been read at the end of the chapter

along with its meaning. For example, the name of second

chapter is Sankhyayog, followed by Karmayog,

Atmasanyasyog, Atmasanyamyog, Gyanvigyanyog,

Shradhatrayavibhagayog and Mokshasanyasyog. The

mantra ^¬ rr~ lr~* has been explained at the end of

the chapter and should be seen there. The three

important words mifu^mifu"kRlq czãfo|k;ka ;ksx'kkL=ks*have

been used after this, it means that this classic is

Upanishad, theological science and an attempt has been

made to open the secrets of Upanishads with Krishna

and Arjuna as characters. Otherwise how is it possible

that where both the armies are standing in front of each

other Shri Krishna and Arjuna will get into such a big

discussion running into 18 chapters.

Joint pain is caused when acidic

content in the body increases. This

acidic content pollutes the blood. The

polluted material gets stuck in the joints

when windy element increases in the

body, this causes pain and stiffness in

the body. The poisonous content circu-

lates in the whole body due to blood im-

purities and also increases body tem-

perature. There is also swelling in the

joints. The disease spreads in all the

body joints and the patient is unable to

sit, walk, stand and do the daily routine

activities.

This disease is caused only due to blood impuri-

ties. The reasons for joint pain are same as those for

respiratory problems. In this case the oxalic acid of acidic

element is produced in higher quantity which leads to

swelling in joints, pain and stiffness. This is the main

reason for this disease.

Natural cure:

Take Triphala churna daily and clear the stomach.

Take spoonful Triphala churna with lukewarm water at

bedtime for smooth bowel movement.

Put 100 gm each of magnesium salt and table salt

in hot water in the bathing tub. Sleep in the bathtub for

30 minutes and massage the whole body and joints with

a thick towel. Place a cold wet towel on the head until

the patient is in the bath tub. Do not pour hot water on

head. If the patient feels hot later then give bath with

cold water and if the patient feels cold then give bath

with hot water. Wipe the body with dry towel and go

inside the room. Let the patient sleep for 30 to 60 min-

utes. Some joint exercises should be done before going

to sleep in order to remove all the accumulations in joints.

If bathtub is not available, then give sauna bath for

ten minutes or put the feet in hot water for ten minutes.

This should be followed by 30 minutes of sunbath and

massage the body under sun with some ayurvedic me-

dicinal oil. Alternately, pour coconut oil in a red coloured

bottle and place it under sun for 20-25 days. This oil is

effective in joint pain. When the body becomes hot un-

der sun, then do some joint exercises. Excellent natural

therapy facility is available at Yog Gram

of Patanjali Yogpeeth.

Yogic cure:

v Yogic cure is also a natural

therapy; the patient can practice Kunjal,

Jalneti and Sutraneti and purify his body.

v The patient should begin the

practice of Yogasana when the joint pain

and swelling is relieved. Yogasana like

Surya Namaskar, Katichakrasana,

Vajrasana, Makarasana, and

Pavanmuktasana should be practiced

for special benefit.

v Yognidra should be practiced

for 30 minutes daily. This will relax the body and

give relief.

v Give three minutes hot fomentation followed by two

minutes cold fomentation in case of pain and swell-

ing in knees, wrist, elbow and shoulders. Massage

the joints nicely and do some joint exercises.

Diet and regimen:

v The disease should be controlled with dietary re-

strictions. The patient does not get sufficient health

benefit unless proper diet is taken. The food should

contain vitamin A and D in sufficient quantities, but

avoid tomato, spinach vegetable or its juice because

they contain oxalic acid.

v Take raw vegetable juice especially carrot, cucum-

ber, round gourd, gourd, ginger and fruit juices like

orange, sweet lime, apple, pomegranate, grapes etc.

this will reduce joint pain, swelling and stiffness within

few days.

v Use garlic and ginger in good quantities. Mix half

spoon honey in spoonful garlic juice and take twice

daily to overcome windy problem. Add it in cooked

vegetables also.

v Many times, the disease gets aggravated with the

practice of Yog because Yog removes the disease

from the body; it does not just suppress the disease.

There is no need to get panicky. Reduce the treat-

ment or stop it for two to three days. Follow the diet

regularly.

Dr. Prof. R. N.Mishra

Yogic exercises are very important for life. They

include Yogasana, pranayam etc. Pranayam can cure

several diseases but it is necessary to understand

pranayam before practicing it.

Pranayam is made with the combination of two

words, Prana + Ayam. Prana means life energy and

Ayam means scope. Therefore, pranayam means the

activity that increases the scope of life energy.

It has four stages:

v Poorak – filling in air

v Kumbhak – stopping air inside

v Rechak – throwing out air

v Bahya Kumbhak – stopping air outside

There are certain rules for practicing pranayam. If

pranayam is being practiced to overcome any disease

then the following precautions should be kept in mind

otherwise it could be harmful.

Rules:

v Air is extremely pure in morning time. Therefore,

this time is recommended for practicing pranayam.

v Practice it on empty stomach. Drink glassful cold or

lukewarm water depending on weather.

v Do not practice it when sunlight is bright. There are

chances of getting Vayu, pitta or kapha doshas dur-

ing this time.

v Wear loose clothes while practicing it.

v Sit on a woolen mat or cotton mattress and practice

pranayam in some meditative pose.

v Keep the eyes and mouth closed while practicing

pranayam. Breathe in and breathe out through nose.

v Increase the duration of Poorak, Rechak, and Bahya

Kumbhak etc. gradually.

v Pranayam can be done in the evening also (sunset

time).

v Pranayam should not be done in case of fever, loose

motions, tuberculosis, chest pain, high blood pres-

sure and extreme weakness.

v Finish daily chores before doing pranayam.

v Do not take solid food or cold water etc. till 30 min-

utes after practicing pranayam.

v Do not practice pranayam in case of swelling in

stomach or kidney or wound, which moves those

organs. Otherwise it could cause pain.

Practice pranayam in open air

v Pranayam is beneficial for the health, but it should

be practiced in open air instead of closed room. Prac-

ticing pranayam in closed room is not that beneficial

as in open air. Oxygen is available in sufficient quan-

tity outside. The benefits obtained from practice of

pranayam and asana in open air increases as oxy-

gen is obtained in more quantity. If Yogasana and

pranayam are practiced in garden, near plants and

greenery then the benefits increase to a great ex-

tent.

Practice Yog to reduce weight

v Yog reduces weight. It increases internal strength

and rejuvenates the body. Yog is a sure shot for obe-

sity.

v Maintain regular daily routine while practicing Yog

and do it with full faith.

v Brahmari and Nadishodhan reduce obesity. Simple

Bhastrika and simple Kapalbhati improve metabo-

lism and reduce fat, therefore overweight people

should practice it.

v People suffering from over work and stress should

practice Yognidra daily for ten minutes. It is the best

remedy. It gives miraculous benefits if done before

meals.

v Meditation practiced for 10 to 20 minutes daily helps

in maintaining mental and emotional balance. Stress,

disappointment and sadness increase weight.

v People experiencing disappointment or distress, and

those habituated to overeating should follow the path

of karma i.e., work.

v Obese people should develop the habit of eating nu-

tritious food – chapatti made with whole wheat, sea-

sonal fruits, vegetables, soups, salad etc. in suffi-

cient quantity.

v Food should be chewed properly. Maintain fixed time

for meals. There should be an interval of five to six

hours between two meals.

v Do not take sweets, sugar, fat, spices, milk and milk

products, products made with refined flour, fried food,

cold drinks etc. in excess quantity.

Page 16: Yog Sandesh

` YOG SANDESH-ENGLISH ` 16

v Practice the following asana along with the above

mentioned precautions, Pavanmuktasana, Vajrasana,

Paschimottasana, Vakrasana, Trikonasana,

Bhujangasana, Tadasana, Dhanurasana, Naukasana

and Surya Namaskara. Repeat each asana five to

seven times but Trikonasana is the best asana out of

all.

Yoga practice is necessary for women also

Today, every woman requires Yog practice. A woman

undergoes lot of physical and mental changes during

her lifetime. Yog can prove very beneficial in overcom-

ing the problems undergone during these changes. It

also proves beneficial in providing good physical and

mental health to the woman.

From childhood to adolescence

Girls undergo mental and physical changes during

adolescence. This period of sudden changes is ideal for

beginning the practice of Yog and pranayam. Yog prac-

tice is like any other sport during childhood and the child

does different types of asana knowingly and unknow-

ingly. But, the child understands the meaning of Yog

only when he grows up. Yog and pranayam prove ben-

eficial in maintaining the strength of girls during men-

strual cycle. During this age, asana should be practiced

that strengthen emotional stability, control mood swings

and regulate menstrual cycle. Yog proves even more

beneficial during the growing up stage, as it strengthens

the muscles and balances the hormones.

Yog practice and pregnancy

Physical and mental health should be improved dur-

ing and after pregnancy. Yog improves the health of the

woman during this period and also helps in overcoming

labor pain and post pregnancy related problems.

Benefits of Yog during pregnancy

v Yog can be adopted depending on the changing needs

and abilities of the body. It strengthens the muscles

of the uterus, supports the spine, and helps in toler-

ating the excess pressure of back.

v Yog makes the body capable of tolerating many physi-

cal problems arising during pregnancy.

v Yog practice after delivery increases oxygen con-

sumption and thereby increases breast milk.

v Practicing light yogic exercises after one or two

months of delivery strengthens all the fibers and in-

creases breast milk.

Old age and menopause

Yog practice is especially beneficial during old age

and menopause. Many physical changes and mental

problems are seen between the age of 45 and 55 years

due to hormonal changes. The symptoms include – ex-

cessive perspiration, high blood pressure, chest related

problems, headache, obesity and insomnia. The disease

fighting capacity also reduces. The chances of infec-

tion in the body also increases, especially urine infec-

tion. During this age, problems like diabetes, bone de-

generation, anger, stress, restlessness, lack of will power,

lack of self-confidence and dissatisfaction arise in mind.

Regular Yog practice helps in maintaining mental, physi-

cal and emotional health. Padottasana, Suptavajrasana,

Paschimottasana are beneficial in controlling weight,

maintaining hormonal balance during menopause.

Yog practice during old age

Both men and women have to face lot of physical

challenges between middle age and old age. This is true

especially for women. The common problems are bone

degeneration, poor metabolism, improper blood circula-

tion and poor mental abilities.

During this stage, Yog practice helps in controlling

blood circulation and maintains the health of the ner-

vous system, and thereby keeps the body healthy and

fit. Yog controls both physical and mental health during

this period.

Yog removes side effects

Yog can overcome the problems faced by cancer

patients after radiotherapy and chemotherapy. It im-

proves the disease fighting capacity. Patients also im-

prove their mental health. Central Council for Research

Yog (New Delhi) has found in this study that Yog is

indeed a blessing for human life.

Practice Yog as per physical capacity

Yog practice is useful for the body but it should be

done depending on one’s physical capacity. It has a good

impact. Which asana should be practiced for how much

time is best decided by a Yog teacher? Take the advice

of a Yog teacher and follow the precautions before be-

ginning the Yog practice.

Neti is also important

Asana and pranayam are considered to be incom-

plete without netikriya. The objective of Yog is to es-

tablish physical and mental strength, which keeps the

soul, mind and body healthy and cheerful. Yog is con-

sidered to be the basis of spiritual achievements. But,

these achievements are obtained only through the body

only. It is necessary to keep the body active and dis-

ease free. Purification is necessary and that too inter-

nal purification. Shatkarma plays an important role in

this case. Patanjali Yogpeeth has excellent Shatkarma

treatment facilities. Here patients are reaping health

benefits and curing incurable diseases. People are bene

fitting from natural cure at Yog Gram.

-Sitaram Gupt

A person who does not have any

place for amusement in life does not re-

quire any other means to become un-

happy. He remains unhappy always

without any efforts. A smile and a whole hearted laugh-

ter are capable of changing the direction of life. Human

body is like a laboratory, wherein biochemical and electro

magnetic changes take place inside it every moment.

The man feels happy or sad due these changes. Mind

plays a prominent role in this.

The bio chemical composition is affected in our body

due to our psychological condition. Positive thinking has

good impact and negative thinking has bad impact on

the bio chemical composition. Laughter is such a pro-

cess wherein mind has a secondary or negligible role. A

person who laughs reaches the stage of no thought state,

which is stage of meditation.

Here the question arises as to why does laughter

does not have negative impact in no thought state? The

reason is clear, in this stage; we are totally disassoci-

ated from happiness-unhappiness, jealousy-hatred and

other contrary feelings. This stage is the stage of ulti-

mate happiness and hence there is no question of nega-

tive impact. Moreover, laughter is related to happiness.

We laugh when we are happy. This is also due to our

conditioning for the past several ages. Therefore, if we

laugh without any reason then we will attain happiness

naturally and changes are seen in bio chemical compo-

sition in the body depending on the health condition.

Saint Patanjali has defined Yog in the book

‘Yogsutra’. It says ^;ksx % fpÙko`fÙk fujks/%* in other

words controlling conditions of mind is Yog. When we

laugh wholeheartedly and loudly then we are able to

control the playfulness of our mind, though momentary.

The momentary control on the playfulness of mind is an

unmatchable incident for the man and is beneficial for

his health. Laughter is actually instant Yog. The more it

is repeated, the more we reach closer to yogic life.

We follow sequence in Yog practice. We learn to

follow rules and respect observances. Then we prac-

tice different types of Yogasana and pranayam. Later

we pass through the stages of concentration and con-

trolling senses and reach the stage of

meditation. But, a wholehearted laugh-

ter takes us to the stage of meditation

immediately. Laughter is a momentary

incident but its impact is seen on body and mind for 30

to 45 minutes.

Laughter exercises also prove beneficial. Laughing

wholeheartedly also impacts the respiratory process and

Yogasana and pranayam are also practiced with this

process. Laughter burns extra calories and helps in con-

trolling weight. It increases blood circulation in the whole

body and gives nourishment to the muscles, especially

the cheeks. Yog is a complete health building system.

Laughter is no less than any yogic exercise. Therefore

laughter therapy is known as laughter Yog.

A treatment process:

Laughter is a complete exercise, which opens all

the nerves, relieves fatigue and provides freshness to

the body. Laughing whole heartedly is an exercise for

the lungs, throat and mouth. It strengthens the nerves

of stomach and chest. Laughter strengthens the dia-

phragm and helps in the treatment of diseases related

to mouth, throat and lungs. Laughter increases blood

circulation and increases oxygen in blood. This process

increase glow on the face. More a person laughs and

makes others laugh, more the glow on face. More the

absorption of oxygen in body, more the production of

energy. More the energy in body, more the chances of

relieving diseases. In this way, laughter is a healer and

nourishing element and is known as spice of life.

Attainment of spice of life through laughter:

Laughter brings in changes in bio chemical compo-

sition in our body. Laughter reduces the stress causing

hormones like cartisol and epinephrine in the body, which

relieves stress and stress relieving implies good health.

Besides, laughter increases the endorphin hormone,

which is a natural pain killer and builds resistance power.

In other words, laughter increases the secretion of es-

sential hormones in the body, which are important for

our health. Hence, laughter denotes good health and is

a synonym of good health.

-Hetal Behan

Modern science believes that snoring is a symp-

tom of serious diseases. According to the doctors that it

can cause heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes.

Snoring also indicates towards respiratory problem.

According to a research, around 25 percent males

and 9 percent females less than 40 years of age are suf-

fering from this problem and this figure is higher in India.

Not only adults but children also are habituated to snor-

ing. But the reasons for snoring in children are different.

It is mainly due to tonsils as the respiratory pipe is blocked

behind the tongue. Obesity is also one of the reasons for

snoring among children and adults.

Blockage of respiratory pipe is also one of the main

reasons for snoring. It is caused when fat gets accumu-

lated in throat due to overweight. The muscles shrink.

Snoring can also be due to throat infection. Snoring is

caused when breathe gets blocked in narrow respiratory

pipes. Weak throat and jaw related problems are some

of the other reasons.

Respiration can be blocked in throat or nose. The nose

problem can be overcome with nose strip. It opens blocked

nose, which overcomes snoring. If snoring is due to throat

problem then consult the doctor for treatment. Many other

serious problems can be caused if this prevails for long

time.

Respiration is blocked completely in sleep in case of

sleep apnea. This disturbs the sleep. If this persists for

more than ten seconds then it should be taken seriously.

Many times it happens when we sleep during daytime,

which remains unknown.

Harmfull Efffects:

v Ignoring snoring problem could lead to several dan-

gerous diseases because the body does not get suffi-

cient quantity of oxygen due to snoring. There is ex-

tra pressure on the body and also affects the metabo-

lism. It affects the surface of arteries and leads to

high blood pressure, heart diseases, diabetes and other

problems like strokes.

v Loud snoring is a very dangerous because the

chances of heart attack increases when compared to

those who do normal snoring.

v Those who do normal snoring do not have the risk of

heart disease. It is said that snoring stops in men after

70 years of age.

v Snoring has negative effect on sexual life as well.

Snoring indicates poor sleep pattern and those who

do not sleep properly do not enjoy sex.

Yog practice

v Yog can cure this problem completely. Practice

Bhastrika pranayam to overcome nose related prob-

lem.

v Practice Kapalbhati pranayam also.

v Nadishodhan pranayam and Ujjayi pranayam should

also be practiced.

v Practice Ujjayi pranayam regularly for five minutes.

v Sitkari pranayam should also be done.

v Dwichakrikasana, Padvrittasana, Ardhahalsana should

be practiced regularly in order to reduce weight.

These asanas remove unwanted fat and overcome

the disease.

v Pour a few drops of mustard oil in nose. This cleans

the nose and does not get blocked and maintains heart

beat rate.

v Yognidra should be practiced for 30 minutes. This re-

laxes the body and helps in enjoying sound sleep.

v The food consumed should be free of kapha and fat.

This will help in maintaining weight.

v Practice the above mentioned Yogasana under the

supervision of a qualified Yog teacher only.

According to a research, around 25 percent males and 9 percent

females less than 40 years of age are suffering from this problem

and this figure is higher in India.

Today everybody is very alert

with respect to their weight, but it is

not enough only to be alert. We eat

as per our choice. We are only con-

cerned about taste but not about

health. This is the reason that today

majority of the women are suffering

from weight problem. One of the rea-

sons for increasing weight is improper

functioning of pineal gland and thy-

roid gland. Pineal gland is pea sized

gland situated in the hind part of the

head just below the brain. Thyroid

gland is situated in the throat.

Proper functioning of pineal gland

ensures proper growth of all parts of

the body and controls weight. Its main

functions are prevention of diseases,

development of reproductive organs

and maintaining the health of the

nerves. Proper functioning of thyroid

gland ensures equilibrium in chemi-

cal processes. It increases digestive

juices. It increases height along with

sexual potency. It improves digestive

fire and controls fat accumulated in

the body.

Overweight is also due to heredi-

tary reasons. If the parents are over-

weight, the children also become

overweight. Functioning of glands is

one of the reasons. Besides, tendency

to overeat, liking for sweets, lethar-

gic nature, lack of exercise, exces-

sive sleeping, lack of physical labor

etc. are also some of the reasons for

overweight.

The blood is produced in less

quantity in obese people and excess

fat gets accumulated in the body. This

obstructs blood circulation and re-

duces body flexibility. The respiration

becomes fats, and the lungs are not

fully active. The blood becomes im-

pure and excess fat also obstructs the

nervous system. Obese people also

have low intelligence. Three things are

necessary in order to reduce weight,

they are diet restrictions, Yogasana

and body massage.

Yogic exercises

Regular practice of Yogasana is a

good remedy. Yogasana and exercise

are beneficial in reducing weight.

Yogic exercises activate the glands;

this prevents accumulation of fat in

the body and burn slowly.

Simple exercises

Brisk morning walk, breathing

from nose (after closing mouth), light

jogging are included in light exercises.

This can be practiced by people of all

ages and reap the ben-

efits. Include revered

Swami Ramdev Ji

Maharaj’s yogic jog-

ging in your daily rou-

tine.

Yogasana: Prac-

tice Surya Namaskar,

Kamarchakrasana, Vajrasana,

Ushtrasana, Shalabhasana,

Naukasana, Sarpasana, Makarasana,

H a s t a p a d d o t a s a n a ,

Pavanmuktasana. Add Halasana and

Sarvangasana after few days. Both

these asanas improve the function-

ing of pineal and thyroid glands.

Massage: Massage the whole

body with water using small towel

daily while taking bath for 10-15 min-

utes. Massage the areas with wet

towel which have excess fat. Dip the

towel in lukewarm water and mas-

sage the body during winters. Use cold

water during summers. Take bath

after massage. This has two advan-

tages – it removes dirt from the body

and balances blood circulation.

Dry massage should be done dur-

ing evening. Massage the fatty area.

Lie down on a mat on stomach. Ask

another person to give gentle taps on

the whole body. Light punches are

also beneficial. Press the flesh and

rub it. Fat starts reducing and burn-

ing with water and dry massage.

Dip feet in hot water and take

sauna bath twice a week. This causes

perspiration and reduces weight. Rub

the body nicely and take bath imme-

diately.

Diet:

Regular exercise, massage and

sauna bath reduces fat. This reduces

appetite also. Fat becomes your diet

and starts eating itself. It means the

fat is consumed in the body. Balanced

diet along with this helps in control-

ling weight.

Eat raw vegetables, vegetable

juices like spinach, carrot, gourd, and

cucumber, round gourd etc., fruits and

fruit juices like orange, sweet lime

etc., vegetable soups for benefit.

Eat one or two chapattis made

with vegetable mixed flour and

skimmed milk boiled with small car-

damom and ginger.

Take lemon juice twice or thrice

daily. Take lukewarm lemon juice

mixed with honey during winter sea-

son. Take diet in consultation with a

qualified Yog teacher or doctor.

Dr. Vipul Bhatt

Patanjali Yogpeeth, Haridwar

Small ailments keep on occurring in our

body. We take medicines in case of some

diseases but we neglect some diseases. It

is true that medicines give relief but if we

do not pay attention on eating habits and

follow diet pattern then these diseases

spread inside the body. The body organs be-

come weak and they become incapable of re-

moving physical disorders. As a result, the disease

becomes incurable with growing age. The nervous sys-

tem becomes inactive. The disease becomes incurable

over a period of time. In such condition, the medicines do

not have any impact on the health of the patient. Only

yogic exercises and natural cure give relief to the pa-

tient. If life energy is present in the body organs of the

patient, he has some capacity to work then Yog can defi-

nitely give health benefit to the patient.

Chronic Colitis:

In this case, there is swelling in the phlegmatic mem-

brane of the large intestine. The disease spreads to the

lower part of large intestine if neglected in initial stages.

As a result, wounds are formed internally in many cases.

Blood and mucous come out with faecal matter. This is a

serious condition.

Why does it happen?

It is disease of the digestive system and hence unsys-

tematic eating habit is the main reason. The food that we

eat should contain sufficient amount of vitamins, proteins

and fat. If protein and fat continues to be high in the food

then the intestine has to work hard in order to digest that

food. This weakens the digestive system. As a result, the

patient complains of either constipation or frequent loose

motions. Excessive intake of medicines causes swelling

in the large intestine.

According to some doctors, this disease is caused due

to a special type of virus. It is known as Manolia Silosis.

The symptoms of this disease are:

Blood along with mucous coming out from rectum,

burning sensation in anus, deterioration in patient’s health.

Symptoms like stress, restlessness, lethargy are seen in

the patient.

According to Yog experts, the one and only one treat-

ment for this disease is Yog and proper diet. The patient

should also have patience and will power. Patient should

be given buttermilk or honey mixed enema. Boil pome-

granate skin and give this enema to patient for relief.

Take two to three grams of pomegranate skin pow-

der twice daily with fresh water for relief.

Give hot fomentation on stomach for

five minutes, place cold bandage on the

stomach whole night. Remove the ban-

dage the next morning.

Continue hot and cold fomentation.

Sunbath is beneficial. Massage the whole

body except the stomach. Give light massage on

the stomach in the meanwhile.

Yog treatment: Yognidra is a sure shot in this dis-

ease. Fill three-fourth of a green colored glass bottle with

water. Keep the bottle under sun. Give this water to the

patient the next day. This reduces swelling of the intes-

tine.

Regular practice of Vajrasana, Bhujangasana,

Makarasana, Pavanmuktasana, Kapalbhati, Agnisar,

Paschimottasana, Hastapadottasana are beneficial.

Diet and regimen:

v Keep three days fast. Use water from green colored

bottle and boiled water kept in bronze container for

drinking.

v Drink sufficient amount of coconut water.

v Vegetable soup, pomegranate, apple and wood apple

juice should be taken for a few days.

v Diluted curd, ripe banana, and wood apple powder,

thin cottage cheese is also beneficial.

v Eat kichdi with curd for a few days. Drink buttermilk.

Eat vegetable made with raw banana.

v Curd set with soybean milk is especially beneficial.

Restrictions: Avoid consumption of biscuits, food

items made with refined flour, coffee, and tea. Avoid ciga-

rette, alcohol, spices, cold drinks, cakes, sugar and chut-

neys.

Note:

v Practice only those exercises that are suitable to your

body. Take ten gram of Isabgol dust with cold water.

Alternately, soak it in water overnight. Take it on empty

stomach the next morning. Use this remedy regularly

for few days to overcome burning sensation and

swelling.

v Take equal quantities of Isabgol and Triphala churna

(around three to five gram) with hot water at bedtime

to reduce swelling of the intestine. It clears the stom-

ach and overcomes all the problems of intestine and

pitta related problems. It is a very effective and harm-

less remedy.

-Dinanath Jhunjhunwala

Mind and body cannot be separated. Mind re-sides in the body. If body becomes diseased then mindalso becomes diseased. If body is healthy but mind isnot healthy then body has no use. This condition is seenonly in case of unconsciousness, when body is aliveand heart beat also continues. But it is useless. Thebody is like a dead body. Therefore, body is importantonly if mind is working. If body loses its existence, mindwill also become inexistent. Therefore our classics haverightly said that man is existing only because of mind,the reason is the relation of mind and salvation. Forinstance, the lock opens and closes with the same key.Our learned people also say that both mind and bodyare one. Our body is the bigger form of our mind andour mind is the minute form of our body. Our body hasdifferent requirements; similarly our mind also has dif-ferent requirements. Our body also functions as perour mind. Our eyes see a particular thing but our mindis somewhere else, then it should be understood thatthe eyes are not able to see clearly. Similarly, we arehearing something but mind is not with it. So in oneway, it has been unheard in spite of being heard.

Therefore, every work performed by a sensory or-gan should be accompanied with the mind; else the workof sensory organs remains incomplete. Now we willknow about the body requirements.

The body needs food, clothes and a house to live.The body needs different things in order to keep it ac-tive and healthy. Wealth, education, abilities, occupa-tion, business, farming etc. are required in order to keepthe body active. Our body requires not one but thou-sands of such requirements in order to keep it activeand useful. In the same way, morning walk, Yog prac-tice, proper eating habits are required in order to keep ithealthy.

There are two important factors with respect to con-trolled eating habits, one is to eat less than requirementso that the food is easily digested and unwanted thingslike betel leaf, pan masala, cigarette, alcohol, arcanut,and other drugs are restricted. The fourth requirementof the body is positive thinking. This means, not to thinkbad about others, not to indulge in wrong actions and becheerful in mind.

These actions, positive thinking and cheerfulness arerelated to mind but mind does not see. The thoughts inour mind are seen through the medium of body only.

We can misuse our body also, for instance indulging inwrong activities like stealing, dacoity, begging etc. inother words, use and misuse of anything depends onour mental tendency. Therefore, mind manages our ac-tions. The bodily actions are dependent on mental ten-dencies. We have analyzed the methods to keep thebody healthy but now we have to think about keepingthe mind also healthy so that positive thoughts developin the mind and negative thoughts are removed. Mindshould be involved in reading good literature and reli-gious texts. Habit of listening to good stories should bedeveloped along with the habit of living in good com-pany. It has been said, ^lalxZtk nks"k&xq.kk HkofUr* it meansgood and bad thoughts develop depending on the goodand bad company.

We are aware of physical diseases, for instance cold,fever, diarrhea, diabetes, blood pressure, cancer etc. inthe same way mental diseases are lust, anger, greed,attachment, jealousy, hatred love etc. physical diseasesare cured in hospitals through allopathy, Ayurved, ho-meopathy etc. But, mental diseases can be overcomewith good company, reading good literature, fulfillingduties and responsibilities. The principle of three mon-keys of Gandhiji should be followed – do not see bad,do not listen bad, do not speak bad.

All these actions will keep away mental diseases.One more important thing to be remembered in this re-gard is that, the theologists, saints, great personalities,scientists, politician, businessmen, entrepreneurs, kings,poppers, poor, rich also have the same mind and body.But, there is lot of difference between two individualsthat is unimaginable. On one side there is a king, on theother side there is a popper. On one side there is a sageand an ascetic and on the other side there is a lustfulperson. On one side there is a dutiful person and on theother side there is a lazy and inefficient person.

We have also seen that a person born in a king’sfamily can become a popper and vice versa. Why doesit happen? The reason is that people have started be-lieving in fate. They are not aware that one can changeones fate with good deeds. Fate is also the result of ourdeeds. Fate is the result of that action which we did notget. The reason being that we are independent in doingour work but dependent on getting results. All the ener-gies of the existence accumulate together and give re-sults on the basis of our actions. It is the energies of the

Page 22: Yog Sandesh

` YOG SANDESH-ENGLISH ` 22

existence that decide as to when we will get the resultof a particular work, how much, in which form.

Therefore, we are dependent on getting our results.It means, king and popper, rich and poor have got thesame mind and body but the result of work will dependon the way the mind and body have been utilized. Goodresults will be obtained if good use has been made, badresults will be obtained if bad use has been made. Whenwe do wrong deeds we spoil our own wealth and health.God has given us healthy and beautiful body, which weturn into ugly and diseased body due to our deeds. Ourbody and mind become polluted due to unhealthy thoughtsand bad company.

If we want to lead a healthy and happy life and at-tain spiritual progress then it is necessary to have properknowledge of mental science. Majority of the physicaldiseases are generated from mind. This should alwaysbe remembered. A true ascetic might be living withoutfood, house but he is always happy and strong. Thereason is that he possesses internal strength. On theother hand, a lustful person has lot of wealth, house andall the things of comfort. But he is sad and diseased.The reason is that he did not use his mind and bodyproperly. Our daily routine should be balanced. Exces-sive physical labor and mental stress should be avoided.Excess of anything is bad, it means the body should notbe habituated to too much comforts or too much labor.Our energy is lost due to worries. We feel sad aboutpast, attached towards the present and afraid of future.We become worried due to the fear of future. Fear isimaginative, for example, if the child does not comeback from school on time, we start worrying about somemishappening. When the child comes back, this worryis overcome but some other worry starts. Majority ofthe worries are imaginative. The worries make the bodyhollow just like the wood that becomes hollow due totermite. Worries make us diseased; diseases like bloodpressure and diabetes are due to worries. We have tochange our worries into thinking. Worry is also a men-tal disease but it becomes a physical disease. There-fore it should be avoided. Mind and body are relatedhence any physical problem has impact on mind. Simi-larly any mental problem has an impact on body. If weare sad, we do not feel hungry, we will feel weakness,body will become inactive, we lose concentration anddedication in work. In the same way, if there is pain inany part of the body then we are unable to think andfocus. Therefore, a healthy person is one who hashealthy body and mind. The mind should be free of nega-tive thoughts and body should be free of diseases.

Psychologists believe that the reason for diseases ismore of mental problems than physical problem. Theybelieve that emotions like anger, hatred, lust, revengelead to accumulation of poison in blood that result in

different diseases. If there is any negative feeling inmind, like fear, sorrow then it has impact on cells throughthe nerves. The cells become weak and working ca-pacity reduces. Very few people realize that feelingslike hatred, jealousy, anger, impatience cause more harmto self than to others. The amount of energy spent inten minutes of anger is more than the energy spent forploughing in the field for two days. Premature grayingof hair is seen due to insensitiveness, impatience andworry. What is mind after all? It is a secretive minutestrength. It is the expression of internal strength. It is agroup of lustful thoughts and imaginations. It gives birthto this world and destroys it. It is made of three quali-ties – piousness, passion and anger. When pious natureis dominant then we experience good health and peaceof mind. When passion is dominant then we experiencewavering mind, confusion and restlessness. When an-ger is dominant in our nature then we experience leth-argy. It should be remembered that lethargy is the gravein which all the good qualities are buried. It is neces-sary to live in the company of good people in order topurify the mind. It is necessary to develop calmness,faith, truth, love, sympathy, courage, respect, happiness,self confidence within us. Only then we can attain hap-piness, peace of mind and harmony. Mind will also becompletely health and a healthy mind will keep the bodyhealthy.

Synopsis

The poet says that one who thanks god in every situation

enjoys happiness all the time. Those who remember god

every night, they get all kinds of happiness and they re-

member to thank him in good times also. The poet says

that one should be content in heart and thank him for ev-

erything, those who remember this always remain happy.

One should not forget the god who gives us everything;

one should live in good company and develop the ideals of

Vedas in mind.

- Dr. Nagendra Kumar Niraj

Sky means emptiness or space. Space element

has the most important place in the creation of human

life. Both, mind and body require this element. Keep

fast to include space element in the body. Include this

element in the mind through maintaining silence and

meditation. Fasting is the main treatment method under

natural therapy. Normally, the nature therapist makes

the patient keep fast for two to five days. Long dura-

tion fasting are prescribed in case of very serious dis-

eases and a new life is given.

Fasting can be done in many ways, namely, fast-

ing done only by drinking water, lemon water mixed

with honey, fruits, juices etc. This helps in curing the

disease from root. Fasting was the main reason for the

long life, good health of sages who found out Ayurved

and lived in forest. Many wonderful researches have

been conducted on the theme of fasting and it is a con-

tinuous affair. The research is as follows:

1. The processes of digestion, catabolism, anabolism

and excretion are on-going in our body. During fast-

ing period, digestion and catabolism have minimum

strength. Their entire energy is consumed in the build-

ing and removing foreign particles from the body.

2. Auto healing system, auto repairing system, auto

treatment system and auto monitoring system get

aroused automatically and the body mechanism

moves towards health building direction.

3. The proteins, fasts, carbohydrates accumulated in

the body during fasting period are used in providing

nourishment to the body. Weakness during this pe-

riod is generally a psychological factor. Take suffi-

cient rest during fasting period so that the body be-

comes disease free.

4. One can notice miracles during fasting period. Cal-

cium and iron mix fast and red blood cells and he-

moglobin increase in the body. The bones are

strengthened. The increased white blood cells, ESR,

urea, uric acid, cholesterol, LDL, triglycerides be-

come normal.

5. Insulin resistance exercise resistance and other health

negative resistance process is removed during fast-

ing period.

6. The pus cells ketone bodies increase in urine during

fasting period. This is temporary in nature and is

overcome as the person starts regaining health.

7. The metabolism is controlled, regulated and system-

atized during fasting period.

8. The incomplete and imbalanced oxygen atoms that

are formed during oxidation of fat, for example,

paraoxide fat, oxygen radical, superoxide, hydrogen

paraoxide, hydrochloric, acid, hydroxyl radical. All

these poisonous free radicals and oxygen radicals

cause infection inside and outside the cells and de-

stroy their membrane, enzymes, proteins, DNA etc.

This leads to ageing and age related diseases. These

problems can be tackled through fasting, intake of

low calorie food, balanced diet, fruit diet, juice diet

etc.

9. The creatures with long life develop some special

types of energy giving enzymes like super oxide

dismutase (SOD), gluthiole and other catalyst en-

zymes and anti oxidants. These anti oxidants and

enzymes provide protection against diabetes, gout,

joint pain, cataract, heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer,

Parkinson’s, Huntington’s and progressive degenera-

tive diseases. These health protecting enzymes are

conserved during fasting period and degeneration

starts converting into regeneration.

10.The main factor for long life is low BMR. During

fasting period and juice diet period, the BMR starts

reducing and thereby the low production of free radi-

cals.

11.The cancer causing pronioplastic cells get destroyed

or controlled during fasting period. It also reduces

and controls the cell degeneration rate.

12.The blood sugar level gets controlled during fasting

period and thereby reduces the cross linking pro-

cess. The glucose level increases in blood, the pro-

tein molecules get stuck with each other and form a

net like thing inside the cell due to the presence of

glucose. This is cross linking. This reduces the effi-

ciency of heart and lungs. The arteries become stiff

and eye lenses become blurred. Fasting controls cross

linking and increases the efficiency of all the organs.

13.During fasting, energy is obtained from glycogen

accumulated in muscles and liver and adipose tis-

Page 24: Yog Sandesh

` YOG SANDESH-ENGLISH ` 24

sues of cholesterol. The enzyme mechanism is

strengthened and becomes healthy.

14.All the organs of digestive system, namely, liver, stom-

ach, colon, pancreas, spleen, small and large intes-

tine get complete rest. Their efficiency and active-

ness increases. The fluids present in the organs are

absorbed and their efficiency increases.

15.The structural reformation of cell membrane of in-

testines changes in such a way that it provides more

and more energy depending on the requirement.

16.The body gets nervous, emotional, physical, mental

and spiritual rest during fasting period.

17.A fasting of two to five days is done with self con-

trol. Drink lot of water during fasting and take lemon

water with honey in case of weakness. Take only

fruits and juices for a few days.

18.Break the fast with sweet lime juice only. If sweet

lime is not available then it can be substituted with

carrot juice, soups, and lentil soup or butter milk.

Take liquids at an interval of three years. Take solid

food slowly. Take boiled vegetables for a few days

and eat chapatti or coarse meal. Come back to nor-

mal diet after two times the fasting period. For ex-

ample, if fasting was done for one week, start nor-

mal diet after two weeks.

19.It is said that even plain chapatti tastes like nectar

incase of hunger. This is normal hunger but feeling

hungry on seeing food or listening about food is false

hunger. For instance, some people lose hunger on

hearing that gourd vegetable has been cooked or

hunger increases on hearing that green peas and

cottage cheese vegetable has been cooked. Normal

hunger during fasting period brings back health.

20.Fasting is prohibited during pregnancy, extreme

weakness, tuberculosis, stomach and intestinal ul-

cers and other serious cases.

21.Do long duration fasting under the guidance of a

doctor because the patient may panic due to healing

crisis caused during fasting period, however healing

crisis is good and healthy.

22.The digestive fire digests the food, and loses foreign

particles during fasting. When the foreign particles

are removed, the body becomes active and strong.

In this situation, the fasting should be stopped other-

wise the fire loses seven humors and leads to star-

vation. The end result is death, whereas the end re-

sult of fasting is good healthy life.

Silence therapy – space element:

The patient can obtain space element by keeping

silence. Lot of energy is consumed when we speak.

During silence, the same energy is used for overcom-

ing diseases, conservation of health and building it. Smile

and silence is not related to any religion or language,

but it is the language of heart, heart is the abode of love

and soul. Therefore it is the language of love and soul;

we do not have to learn it. Silence is the voice of nature

and god; it associates with itself and creates health and

completeness in life.

Silence is present within, language is outside. Si-

lence does not mean only to stop speaking, but it is erasing

the mind present behind voice. Silence means the inex-

istence of mind. Silence is like becoming non existent.

Silence is the language of entity. Silence is the abode of

soul. It is the voice less music of inner self, which be-

comes available when the mind exits. It is a speechless,

unending, happy, immortal, permanent, limitless, ever

new brightness of soul that has no light. It can be seen

only with inner eyes. Practice the following for silence.

1. Sit in the beautiful environment of Yog Gram near a

tree, plant, stream, lake, river and listen only to their

noise. Feel their music and beats. Do not give any

reaction. Just listen and develop the habit of listen-

ing noise less music.

2. Sit in a forest, garden or park and listen only to the

voice of birds, or whatever noises are heard in that

place. Do not select good or bad noise; just enter

into the world of silence.

3. Do not react whenever there is loud noise, just listen

and you will feel that noise is also like music. Silence

enters the noise also.

4. Look at the blue sky and just keep on watching. Keep

the mind free from vows, desires, alternatives,

thoughts, ambitions, and imaginations. Do not give

any voice to experience and feelings, just watch, you

will slowly enter silence. Silence has relaxing aware-

ness, inexplicable equality, calmness and beauty.

Deep silence is complete concentration and empti-

ness. That unending emptiness enters into the sky.

Our internal nature is silence which is within. This is

health, which is situated within. Silence has got lost

in the crowd of external world, it has got hidden.

This experiment arouses it and is the first and last

step of self examination.

Silence increases positive energy and reduces the

stress hormones. It controls heart beat and regulates it.

It provides peace, rest and relaxation to the heart.

Spondalitis:

Many times the vertebrae develop gap or be-

come deshaped or even shift from their places.

This change in body is known as

spondalitis. It affects the neck and spi-

nal cord of the patient. The patient suf-

fers a lot and experiences pain. In this

case, the patient has burning sensation,

swelling and pain in ligaments and joints.

Different types of Spondalitis:

(1) Cervical Spondalitis

(2) Slip Disc

(3) Sciatica

(4) Lumbar Spondalitis

Cervical Spondalitis is the most common among these problems.

Cervical Spondalitis:

This problem is common among men when compared to women.

In the initial stages, the patient complains of pain in spine, which gradu-

ally spreads to joints. The shoulder and neck is affected. In case of

Cervical Spondalitis, the cells become infected, which causes swelling

in joints of spine. There is unnecessary pressure on nerves and veins,

and the patient faces difficulty in making small movements. When the

disease aggravates, the symptoms of paralysis of hands and legs are

also seen. The neck muscles become weak and degenerate.

Symptoms:

v The patient complains of headache, stiffness in neck, shoulders and

hands along with pain. The patient then starts complaining of fever,

fatigue, weakness and numbness.

v The patient experiences pain in moving neck and head.

v The patient also finds it difficult in completing daily routine activities

-Vaidya Avinash Shrivastava

Patanjali Yogpeeth, Haridwar

This problem is common

among men when compared

to women. In the initial

stages, the patient complains

of pain in spine, which

gradually spreads to joints.

The shoulder and neck is

affected. In case of Cervical

Spondalitis, the cells become

infected, which causes swell-

ing in joints of spine. There is

unnecessary pressure on

nerves and veins, and the

patient faces difficulty in

making small movements.

ping, washing clothes and utensils develop this prob-

lem.

v It can be hereditary also.

people suffer from this problem more than young

people.

v Obesity is also one of the main reasons for Cervical

Spondalitis.

Religious, inspiring and encouraging message of

Shrimadbhagvadgita

^^m¼jsnkReukRekuka ukRekueolkn;sr~A

vkReSo ãkReuks cU/qjkReSo fjiqjkReu%AA

It means, man should make efforts to uplift himself and

ensure that his soul does not take downward trend. The

soul that moves upwards is our friend and that which moves

downwards is our enemy. God explains this in a very simple

manner, “ You are king, you are emperor, you are lion, you

are Brahma, and you have forgotten your original form.

Recognize self within yourself. Nobody will come to uplift

you in your life, you have to uplift yourself. Take a resolu-

tion, today itself, now, the objective of your life is attain-

ment of happiness. Collect your energy with self control,

arouse the dormant energies lying within you. This energy

is within your body but it is dormant, arouse it, then it is

possible to see god. Arousal of dormant energy is known

as arousal of Kundalini. This energy is lying dormant like a

snake in the Mooladhar Chakra or root chakra. It is situ-

ated between reproductive organ and rectum. It has four

plexus. Its sage is Kashyap. Bravery and happiness reside

in this chakra.

Swadishthan Chakra or Sacral Chakra: it is situated at

the ovaries and prostrate area. It has six petals and its

sage is Atri. Arousal of this chakra overcomes lethargy,

ego, disbelief, ignorance, foolishness.

Third chakra is Manipur chakra or Solar Plexus. It is

situated at the navel area. It is positioned at the solar plexus

and it has ten petals arousal of this chakra removes thirst,

jealousy, treachery, shame, fear, disgust, delusion, foolish-

ness and sadness. It overcomes seminal problems. It brings

natural glow on the face along with brightness.

The fourth chakra is the Anahat chakra or heart chakra

which is situated in the heart area. It has 12 petals and its

sage is Bharadwaj, arousal of this chakra removes wor-

ries, attachment, dullness and other bad qualities.

The fifth chakra is Vishudhchakra or throat chakra which

is in throat area. It has 16 petals and its sage is Jamadagni,

It controls speech and respiration.

Sixth chakra is Agyachakra or third eye chakra and is

situated at the third eye position or pineal gland. Om is

positioned here and its sage is Vishwamitra. Arousal of

this chakra awakens all the energies of the body. a devo-

tee with awakened Agya chakra is able to lead everybody.

His predictions come true and the journey of happiness

begins from here. This is the main gate to reach till Sahasrar

chakra or the Crown chakra. A person with awakened

Agya chakra has brightness, self confidence and desire to

reach great heights. He is extremely fearless.

It is necessary to take simple food in order to awaken

kundalini energy. The thoughts should be pure, behavior

should be clean, and thinking should be pious. Sit on a

clean mat and practice Omkar, nadishodhan, Bhastrika

pranayam. Sit in meditative pose, remove all thoughts from

mind and chant the mantras with full concentration. The

mind will waver many times, colorful scenes will appear in

front of your eyes, and fearful scenes will also appear in

front of the eyes. But do not be afraid or disappointed.

Awakening of kundalini is not one day’s job, it requires

rigorous practice. But the day on which it will awake, be-

fore that you will hear a divine sound and see a bright light

and you will realize the truth. The body will feel light, waves

of happiness will fill in the whole body and you will experi-

ence ultimate happiness. The most important thing this entire

process should be done under the supervision and guid-

ance of a knowledgeable person.

-Jaishankar Mishra ‘Savyasachi’

India is a world mentor from spiritual point of view.

The Indian land is fertile due to the piousness of our

sages and seers and their devotion. There has been an

ancient tradition of spiritual relations of saints and devo-

tees in India.

With the objective of relieving pain and illnesses of

the entire world, Divya Yog Mandir Trust was estab-

lished in 1995, Patanjali Yogpeeth’s foundation was laid

in 2004 and inaugurated in 2006, Bharat Swabhiman

Trust was established in 2009 and Patanjali Yogpeeeth’s

second phase was inaugurated in 2009 with the inspira-

tion of Yogrishi Swami Ramdev Ji Maharaj.

Revered Swami Ramdev Ji Maharaj has used Yog

as a weapon against diseases and is fighting a health

revolution at international level. Millions of people have

become disease free and their lives have been filled

with new vitality. Swami Ji has taken the vow to pro-

vide good health to entire mankind through Yog and

Ayurved. Millions of Yog teachers are conducting class’s

right from cities to villages to fulfill this objective. This

created awareness among the people.

Patanjali Yogpeeth has now moved out of Indian

boundaries and organized several Yog camps with the

slogan of practice Yog and remain disease free. Swami

Ji believes that India is his home and the whole world is

his family. Swami Ji was addressed as the most popular

personality of the century and honored in UK. Several

people left liquor and meat and adopted Yog as their

daily routine. People from Germany, Italy, France and

other countries came to visit Swami Ji in London and

changed their life style with Yog.

The people of western countries are facing health

problems due to unsystematic eating habits. They are

becoming victims of different diseases. They have be-

come aware towards health through Yog and pranayam.

Swami Ji is gaining lot of fame in foreign countries and

he also fulfilling his mission of making the world dis-

ease free.

Propagation of Yog and Ayurved, scientific approach

of Yog, spreading of Indian culture, Vedas and

Upanishads has taken an international level with the

establishment of first international Patanjali Yogpeeth

at Ireland of Little Camboury in Scotland, Patanjali Yog

foundation (Trust) in Canada, Patanjali Yog foundation

(Trust) in USA, Patanjali Yogpeeth trust in Kathmandu,

Nepal. The entire credit goes to Yogrishi Swami

Ramdev Ji Maharaj. These days we see a continuous

fight between material and spiritual thoughts. We have

found scientific basis for the fight going on between

Yog and science. Science means finding truth, opening

the inner eyes of human beings, open hearts and this is

the objective of Yog. Science is incomplete without Yog.

In the present age, only those principles of Yog can

withstand which have been proved with scientific ap-

proach. Science that is included in these principles has

so much strength that they can strengthen the life.

Yog is the ultimate truth, it also has science. It has

direct impact on human body. This is the reason that

pranayam is curing patients suffering with incurable dis-

eases. Swami Ji has said long back that yogic actions

are scientific and today it has been proved. India has

been world mentor from spiritual point of view. How-

ever, the image that it is holding today is not of world

mentor due to various ups and downs. At such a time,

swami Ji is trying to reestablish Yog, Ayurved and In-

dian ancient culture. Swami Ji is uniting the divided In-

dia in one string for establishing harmonious society in

the nation and world. He aims to remove the narrow

mindedness caused due to caste, religion, colour, com-

munity, language by strengthening national integrity and

communal harmony.

Millions of people living in villages, cities and states

are reaping the benefits of health through Yog and

Ayurved. People belonging to every region, language,

class, community, religion are attending the Yog camps.

Swami Ji is doing the work of widening the sage

tradition and Indian culture on continuous basis. Swami

Ji wants to reestablish Yog, Ayurved and Indian pride,

natural therapy and Indian culture at international level.

He wants to give back the status of world mentor to

India. He is giving the message of humanity to the en-

tire world through the medium of Yog and Indian cul-

ture.

Children are very delicate, tender and sensitive.

Their health problems should be cured naturally, which

protects them from health risks. Natural cure not only

cures diseases but children also remain fit internally.

Lisping and stammering:

v Children should chew one green myrobalan daily to

overcome lisping and stammering. It makes the

tongue thin and the voice becomes clear. It also re-

duces heat in mouth.

v Rub almond and seven black pepper seeds in water

and make a paste. Add a little bit of powdered sugar

candy and lick it. Give it to the child on empty stom-

ach in the morning for a few days.

v If stammering is not overcome in spite of speaking

clearly and with strength, keep two black pepper

seeds in the child’s mouth and ask the child to suck

its juice. This remedy should be followed twice daily

for long duration.

v Grind 500 gm aniseeds and boil in 300 gm water till

it reduces to 100 gm. Add 50 gm sugar candy and

250 gm cow milk. Give to the child daily at bedtime

depending on their physical strength. This overcomes

stammering within a few days.

Whooping cough:

v Mix two grains of roasted alum and equal quantity

of sugar. Give it to the child twice daily. This rem-

edy cures whooping cough within five days. The

adults should take double dose. If the child is unable

to take the medicine without water then give it one

or two gulps of hot water after the medicine. Whoop-

ing cough is generally seen among children.

If child is unable to digest milk:

v Many children are unable to digest milk. This prob-

lem is seen among children with poor digestion ca-

pacity. Put one or two gm of small Pippali and two

Modana in 200 gm milk at the time of boiling. Pippali

removes the impurities present in milk and makes it

easily digestible. It improves the condition of spleen

in children. A mother with hot temper should not

give her breast milk to the child. Breastfeeding with

angry feeling is harmful for the child.

v If mother drinks glassful water before breastfeeding

then the child is able to digest the milk easily. The

child does not suffer from vomiting and loose mo-

tions.

v Put half spoonful aniseed in one cup of milk and

boil. The milk becomes light and easily digestible.

This milk is beneficial for the child’s health.

v Soak spoonful aniseed in water at night and crush it

nicely the next morning. Sieve it and mix this water

in milk. Give it to the child to overcome swelling of

stomach and gastric trouble.

v Mix the powder of one small cardamom in milk and

boil it. This makes the milk tasty and light. Children

relish this milk and the milk digests easily.

v If the elderly person is unable to digest milk then it is

advisable to drink fresh water with lemon juice or

lemon juice made with salt to overcome this prob-

lem.

Bedwetting

v If the child is suffering from bedwetting problem then

give one walnut, five gm raisins daily in the morning.

This overcomes the problem within one week to ten

days.

v Give spoonful honey to children above three years

of age and two spoonfuls to children above six years

of age with half cup water at bedtime for a fort-

night. This overcomes the problem of bedwetting.

Children develop are able to control urination and

leave the habit of bedwetting.

Breakfast to make children disease free:

v Wipe one big Kabli or big Harad with wet cloth and

grind it on clean stone with one or two spoons of

water. Rub the Harad in such a way that only its

skin is rubber. Do not let the seed get rubbed. Give

one or two spoons of this Harad water to the child

on empty stomach. Give spoonful fresh water to the

child over this medicine. If the child is suffering

from cold and catarrh then heat a bowl slightly and

mix Harad water in it to make the water lukewarm.

This medicine makes the child healthy and strong.

Harad is believed to be equal to mother. It over-

comes several health problems in children and

strengthens the bones and their disorders.

v If child is suffering from green-yellow loose motions

due to cold then rub Harad in water and then two or

three Jaiphal. Give this water to the child to control

loose motions and cure cold.

v In case of belches or stomachache, rub Harad along

with four Thymol seeds in water and give to the

child.

v If the child passes stools with great difficulty then

give it Harad water for painless bowel movement.

This increases the resistance power in children.

Pt. Bhawani Prasad

Spring season is extremely enchanting. The mus-

tard crops are ripe and the whole area looks like a

yellow coloured carpet spread in the fields. Gardens

are full of marigold and Guldawoodi flowers, these

yellow and golden colour flowers have made the whole

atmosphere enchanting. Children are wearing yellow

coloured clothes in the cities and villages. Cold, light

and soothing wind is blowing everywhere. Different

types of flowers bloom in this season which forces

the wind to move slowly due to their fragrance. One

can see only flowers on all the sides in this season.

Whichever direction you see, you can find only color-

ful flowers. Rose blossoms in some places and sun-

flower in some other places. One can see jasmine at

some places and lotus at other places. The flowers on

mango trees also start appearing and the honey bees

buzz near them. The voice of cuckoo bird is mesmer-

izing and increases the natural beauty. The mango flow-

ers have wonderful fragrance which pulls the mind

towards it. According to the principle of Ayurveda,

the new juice in the vegetable, trees moves upwards

in this season. New blood is formed in the bodies of

the human beings, which fills new zeal and enthusi-

asm.

Spring season begins in the Hindu months of Chaitra

and Vaishakha. ^e/qek/okS olUr% L;kr~* this phrase is

like its nurturer, but the festival of the nature begins

40 days before this season. The nature itself is en-

grossed in welcoming this season then how can the

man made with the five elements of the nature be

aloof from it? Indians have been admirers of natural

beauty since ancient times. How can they not express

their happiness on this enchanting natural beauty?

People celebrate the festival of Basant Panchami to

enjoy this season.

This season is very wonderful and mesmerizing that

the whole atmosphere is filled with fun and frolic. The

surroundings are filled with the voice of cuckoo birds

and other birds. All the creatures appear to be danc-

ing in the tune of the nature’s beauty, be it birds, ani-

mals or human beings. New waves of zeal appear in

the hearts.

The farmers work laboriously throughout the year

for this day and harvest the fields. The ripe fields of

paddy and barley and the greenery around their eyes

fill their hearts with happiness. All the works of farm-

ing end in this season and it is the time to celebrate

with dance and music. Basant Panchami marks the

beginning of this celebration. Festivals were organized

during this period in olden days. Sanskrit writers know

that Indians have always celebrated in poetic environ-

ment and poem has always played an important part

in their lives. This is the reason that there is hardly

any emotion that has not been visualized by Indian

poets. Let us remember the great personalities who

had strong character and let us not allow lustful thoughts

come into our mind. Let us enjoy the spring season

with pure mind and sing in the praise of that supreme

soul. Let us celebrate the festival with pure minds.

Music is very important in this festival, but nowadays

people love romantic songs. There is no other thing

better than music for mind and soul. Good and pure

music helps in the upward movement of soul.

When multinational companies enter into a country with the purpose of doing business then they become

a headache for that country. It is not that the multinational companies have only economic ill-effects on the

country but they also have several deep and wide spread effects. The reason is the character of these compa-

nies. They directly make political interference in order to get the policies changed. The social life also gets into

their trap.

When these companies start their business activities in other countries then some misconceptions work in

the background. For example, multinational companies will bring in capital into the country, provide modern

technology, generate employment opportunities for the people, increase exports, strengthen the balance of pay-

ment of the nation, and increase the economic resources of the nation. But, these claims prove just opposite in

reality.

The biggest argument in favour of foreign companies is that a poor and developing nation like India lacks

capital and development is not possible without capital. Therefore, capital can be acquired from foreign countries

in order to fulfill this deficiency and the vicious circle can be broken.

But the fact is something else. The foreign companies bring very little capital along with them; most of the

capital is funded through Indian banks loans, loans from Indians and public issues. All the foreign companies

operating in India bring in only five percent of capital from outside. The remaining 90 to 95 percent capital is

collected from Indian sources.

The capital investment made by multinational companies is just a delusion. Companies like Hindustan Lever,

Colgate, Ciba Gigy and hundreds of other foreign companies started their business in India with very little capital.

They earned huge profits and increased their share capital by several crores of rupees through bonus shares.

Now they are taking billions of rupees from Indian in the name of royalty, net profits and technical fees. One can

understand the seriousness of this issue from the fact that the companies operating in India in 1976-77 earned

only 121.54 crores which increased to 494.6 crores in 1986-87. These multinational companies have taken around

3244.15 crores rupees out of India legally in the past 11 years. This amount must be several times higher illegally.

The foreign companies have sent around 33000 crores rupees out of India legally in 2006-07. These companies

are exporting hard earned foreign exchange to their countries of origin. These multinational companies have

spread a spiders web in our country in the name of capital investment can be assessed from the following couple

of examples.

When Hindustan Lever started its business in 1933 at that time its parent company Unilever invested only 24

lakhs. The company spread a spiders web in such a way that the parent company’s share capital increased to

Page 33: Yog Sandesh

` YOG SANDESH-ENGLISH ` 33

47.59 crores in 1990. Out of this, 44.51 crores were added to share capital in the form of bonus. Hindustan Lever

had sent 80.18 crores outside India in the form of profits between 1975 and 1990. This amount was other than

royalty and technical fees.

The paid up capital of Hindustan Unilever in 2007-08 is 217.75 crores. While, the total sales of this company

is 1474.51 crores. The profit of the company is 1925.47 crores.

Similarly, Colgate Palmolive Company started its business in 1937 with just 1.5 lakh rupees. The share capital

of the company increased to 12.57 crores by 1989. Out of this, 12.56 crores were added to share capital in the

form of bonus shares. It took away 18.42 crores outside India between 1977 and 1989 in the form of profits. The

paid up capital of this company in 2007-08 was 135.99 crores, whereas the total turnover was 138.28 crores. The

profit of Colgate Palmolive was 231.71 crores in 2007-08.

Swiss company Ciba Gigy started its business in 1947 with 48.75 lakhs. The share capital of the company

increased to 13.54 crores in 1991. Now Ciba Gigy is known as Novartis India. The paid up capital of this

company in 2007-8 was 15.98 crores, whereas the turnover was 559.70 crores. The profit of this company in

2007-08 was 94.46 crores.

Famous electronics company, Phillips started its business in 1956 with just 10 lakh rupees. The company sent

10 crores rupees to Holland in 1974 in the form of profits. The paid up capital of this company in 2007-08 was

70.30 crores whereas the turnover was 2890.6 crores. The profit of this company in 2007-08 was 190.30 crores.

Generally, the multinational companies take away capital several times higher than invested within one year

of establishment. For example, Goodyear company invested one crores rupees in India for starting its business. In

1989 the same company sent 7.33 crores outside India in the form of profits. In other words, it sent seven times

of its investment within one year. The paid up capital of Goodyear Company in 2007-08 was 70.30 crores, while

the turnover was 979.61 crores. The profits of this company in 2007-08 were 40.23 crores. Similarly, Bayer India

invested 8.29 crores in India initially, but sent 13.3 crores outside India in 1989-90 in the form of profit. The paid

up capital of this company in 2007-08 was 39.50 crores, whereas the turnover was 1250.82 crores. The profit

was 56.63 crores in the same year. Glaxo invested 2.88 crores in India to start the business. It sent 3.93 crores in

the form of profit outside India in 1989-90. Glaxo Company’s paid up capital in 2007-08 was 84.70 crores while

the turnover was 1712 crores. The profit of the company was 537.66 crores in the same year. Glaxo also does

joint business with Smith line in India. The paid up capital of these two companies in 2007-08 was 42.6 crores

while the turnover was 1395.51 crores. The total profit was 162.68 crores. American company Pfizer started its

business in India with just five lakh rupees and sent 4.83 crores to America within one year in the form of profit.

The paid up capital of this company in 2007-08 was 29.84 crores while the turnover was 773.1 crores. The profit

of this company in the same year was 338.93 crores. In the same way, American company Abbott Laboratories

started its business with just one lakh rupees and sent 23 lakhs to America the next year in the form of profit.

Abbott Company had a paid up capital of 14.47 crores in 2007-08 while the turnover was 636 crores. The profit

of this company in the same year was 68.43 crores. Grasim & Kevin Company takes around 7.65 times of its paid

up capital every year in the form of profit. Famous tobacco multination company, ITC is earning around 11364

percent of its paid up capital. The paid up capital of ITC in 2007-08 was 376.86 crores while the turnover was

21355.94 crores. The profit of this company in the same year was 3120.10 crores. Almost all the American

companies are earning 860 percent profit of their paid up capital from India. Following table shows the amount of

Source: Reserve Bank of India Report from 1989 to 2007

The total foreign capital invested in India in 1978 was 1800 crores which was eight percent of total capital

invested (in private and public sectors). On the other hand, in the same year 1929 crores were taken outside India

in the form of profit, royalty, technical fees etc.

The following table shows the amount of foreign investment in 1981 and the amount taken outside India.

The figures given above clearly show that India has made losses except in the years 1983 and 1985. The

amount of money taken outside India was much higher than the wealth invested. Therefore, it is clear that

foreign capital investment is a deal of loss.

As per the report of Reserve Bank of 1992, share capital of 326 multinational companies in 1987-88 was

1445.23 crores, out of which 60 percent was the share of Indians, 610 crores was from banks and 50 crores

was from government funding.

Subhash was born

on 23rd January 1910 at

Cuttack in Orissa state in

a reputed family. Subhash was selfless person and

had immense love for his country. He was extremely

intelligent from childhood and loved his self-respect.

He passed ICS examination to fulfill his father’s wish

but he resigned from his post for the purpose of free-

dom of India.

Deshbandhu Chittaranjan Das was the source

of his political inspiration. The British government

realized his excellent organizational strength and put

him behind bars. But after being released from the

jail, he formed Swarajya party and won seats in

Kolkata’s municipal elections. He became the work-

ing authority.

His writing skills, efficiency and patriotism came

to light in ‘Bangla Katha’ and he took a front seat in

Congress party. He became the president of Con-

gress party in 1938, which was not liked by one of the

top Congress leaders. Subhash resigned from Con-

gress party and formed ‘Forward Block’.

He found that Indian involvement in Second

World War to be a good chance of gaining indepen-

dence and he moved out of India on 16th January

1941. He met Hitler in Germany and went to

Singapore. He got released the Indian prisoners of

wars made by Japan. He formed Azad Hind Fauj

with their support.

He became popular as ‘Netaji’ amongst the im-

migrant Indians and gave the slogan of Jai Hind from

Singapore. He invited all the Indians of the world with

his famous slogan, ‘You give me blood, and I will give

you freedom.’ He believed that freedom cannot be

obtained through begging but it requires sacrifice and

dedication.

Azad Hind Fauj won under his leadership and

crossed Indian border via Burma. The party hoisted

the flag in Imphal and also declared independence.

Second World War saw a twist in 1945 and they had

to move back due to limited resources.

This move from Subhash shook the British gov-

ernment and they wanted to arrest him. Netaji went

inder ground. British decided to quit India and it be-

came free, but Netaji was missing. We celebrate his

birth anniversary and remember his patriotic efforts

for the motherland, which gives us a proud feeling.

ditions of mind are always known; Tatprabho – that

lord of mind; Purushasya aparinamitvat – when man

becomes inefficient.

Prose meaning: When man becomes inefficient,

the lord of mind always remembers the conditions of

mind.

Meaning: When mind is related to external con-

dition, then it knows and when there is no relation

then it does not know it. There is change in mind in

both conditions, when the mind is aware of external

subjects and when it is not aware. The reason is that

mind is the result of three-quality nature and qualities

like pious etc. are result giving. Therefore, mind is

known as result. But, the lord of mind that is the man

does not give this result. He is always witness of mind,

whether it is full of subjective conditions or not. When

the mind is full of subjective conditions then the man

is witness of subjective conditions and when the mind

is free of conditions then the man is witness of ab-

sence of subjective conditions.

Question: Mind broadcasts the external things and

can also be aware of its form. Is it necessary to know

any witness other than mind free of conditions?

Drishyatvat – as it is visible; eksamaye cha – and in

one time only; Ubhyanvdharanam – cannot know it-

self and subjects.

Prose meaning: That mind which does not know

its own form, it is visible and it is not possible for the

mind to know itself at the same time

Meaning: When we develop strong synchroniza-

tion with mind, then we experience different emotions

like happiness, unhappiness, anger, fear etc. This ex-

perience clearly indicates that these emotional changes

are being known by some other source, the mind does

not know them. In this way it is proved that mind is

visible, it is known by the man that is the one who

sees, it knows its form itself. If somebody says that

mind can understand the subjects and attains subjec-

tive knowledge at the same time then it is not correct

because two types of knowledge cannot be obtained

at the same time.

Question: Mind cannot know the subject and its

own form at the same time, it has been accepted as it

is logical. In order to avoid this problem, why cannot it

be believed that the mind understands the subject and

this mind is understood while knowing the subject by

another mind? If we consider this then the above men-

tioned problem will be overcome and there will be no

need to consider any consciousness of mind without

conditions as looker. Its answer cannot be considered

like this because….

Prose meaning – When we consider that the mind

which is understanding the subject is the one that is

-Dr. Ramjeet Sharma,

HOD, Herbal Garden and Agriculture Research

Patanjali Yogpeeth, Haridwar

A person who gets the blessings of goddess less Lakshmi gets re-

lieved from poverty and miseries. He gets name and fame with wealth and

riches. Cow has been compared with goddess Lakshmi in Vedas and mytho-

logical books. Man has earned wealth by worshipping goddess Lakshmi

and a person who takes care of cow worships 33 crores gods and god-

desses along with Lakshmi. This makes him intelligent. These are emo-

tional facts but true. Indians have been emotionally attached with cow

since Vedic age. One cannot develop faith in anything unless there is an

emotional attachment.

Cattle farming is a business besides an emotion, which has become

the livelihood for several poor people. Cattle farming is the source of in-

come for poorest of poor person and has been the backbone of Indian

economy since ages.

If we analyze cattle farming at family level then four to five liters of

cow milk is sufficient to fulfill the needs of a four member family. The

family gets milk, curd, clarified butter, butter milk in sufficient quantity along

with cow dung that is used as fuel. A calf also takes birth in one year. The

ash of half burnt cow dung cake is a good tooth powder. Put five gram

clarified butter on cow dung fire to fill fragrance in entire house. It purifies

the environment and destroys germs. Cow milk, clarified butter and butter

milk are very healthy and the person need not think before consuming

these items. Drinking 200 gm cow milk or butter milk daily fulfills all the

requirements of the body and improves health. It develops pure and good

mind. Cow milk, clarified butter, butter milk, urine and cow dung are full of

medicinal qualities and there is no need to visit a doctor. The cow provides

economic, mental, religious and medicinal benefits to the person and happi-

ness and contentment. If we analyze this business at national level, then

also it is the only business that provides maximum income to the persons.

At present, India is suffering from fuel deficiency and unemployment.

Cattle farming is contributing in these areas, which is not available from

any other sector. Cow dung is used both as fuel and manure, milk gives

nourishment and medicines. Cattle’s farming is a source of income for

more than 10 crores families in India. It is very difficult to analyze all its

qualities but economic analysis proves that India earns around 800 billion

rupees of income annually from this sector. We are giving away foreign

exchange and useful goods in the name of globalization but at the same

time, we are bringing in serious diseases like AIDS and increasing unem-

ployment. These are the symbols indicating poverty. On the other hand,

cow is the main source of income and employment in rural areas.

Cow dung has lot of miraculous qualities, which have not been found

out so far. Proper use of cow dung can solve the fuel crisis in India, it can

yield good produce in the form of manure, and it can

save water sources and overcome pollution. We have

not yet paid attention towards the medicinal qualities of

cow dung. In California alone, an income of eight crores

dollars is being earned out of an expenditure of two

crores dollars annually on cow dung. Therefore it is

necessary to find out the secrets of cow dung and use

them to the fullest. The day we will find the secrets of

cow dung that day India will become golden bird once

again.

The dung obtained from cows and buffaloes are

mainly used in the form of fuel and manure. But, nowa-

days it is also being used for making incense sticks,

pooja material, tiles etc.

Fuel: As per various surveys and estimates made

by different scientists, the dung of cows and buffaloes

is used 2/3 and 1/3 in the form of fuel and manure re-

spectively. Almost all the villages use cow dung for

making fuel cakes, which is the most important source

of domestic fuel. Two kilos of cow dung cakes is equal

to fuel obtained from one kilo wood or half kilo coal.

Table – 1: Fuel from cow dung

One kilo wood = 2 kilos cow dung cakes

One kilo coal = 4 kilos cow dung cakes

One cubic meter biogas = 25 kilo cow dung

One cubic meter biogas = 1.6 – 4.7 unit electricity

(3 units)

Cow dung can also be used in the form of biogas

and electricity other than cow dung fuel cakes. As per

the scientific facts, it is believed that 25 kilo fresh cow

dung can make one or one and half cubic meter biogas.

This amount of biogas is sufficient to fulfill the fuel and

electricity needs of one small family. The fuel obtained

from biogas does not create any type of smoke or poi-

sonous gas. In other words biogas is cheap and good

source of fuel. The biggest advantage is that cow dung

is made into good type of manure, which can be di-

rectly used in fields. It can be converted into vermin

compost.

Biogas can be used for starting generator and used

as electricity instead of burning it directly. One cubic

meter biogas can produce around three units of elec-

tricity. This can be used as normal electricity. There-

fore, cow dung can fulfill the fuel, electricity and ma-

nure requirements of cattle farmers. Experiments and

figures have proved that using cow dung in the form of

manure saves around 241 billions every year, while it

saves around 260 billions when used in the form of fuel.

N.S.Subbarao also proved in the year 1982 that if cow

dung is stopped being used in the form of fuel then around

20 years old 14-15 crores trees will have to be destroyed.

Cutting down so many trees can change the envi-

ronmental conditions to harmful level. Therefore, the

environment and climatic balance is being maintained

indirectly through cow dung and cow

Manure: The process of making compost from

cow dung is prevalent from long time. When cow dung

is made into compost, the level of nitrogen, phospho-

rous and potassium increases by two to three times than

in fresh cow dung. Nowadays, cow dung and cow dung

slurry is being used for making vermin compost and

biodynamic manure. The amount of nitrogen, phospho-

rous and potassium is six to eight times more in biody-

namic manure and three to four times in vermin com-

post when compared to cow dung.

Besides, soil also provides little amounts of com-

ments is around 241 to 3536 billions.

Total income from this sector = Rs.2000 billion

annually (2003-2004)

It is necessary to highlight the fact that as per the

figures of 2003-2004 the total income from cattle farm-

ing in the nation is 2000 billions. While, proper utilization

of cow dung gives an income of 3536 billions, which is

double than gross cattle farming income. This manure

increases the soil fertility and also save billions of ru-

pees spent for urea, DAP etc.

Other uses: cow dung is being used in the form of

Page 41: Yog Sandesh

` YOG SANDESH-ENGLISH ` 41

fuel cakes and manure for the past several centuries

but nowadays it is also being used for making incense

sticks, tiles and pooja material. Besides, cow dung is

also used in the manufacture of ayurvedic medicines.

Processing of cow dung reduces or destroys its poison-

ous element. Therefore, as we are highlighting the quali-

ties of cow dung, its economic value is also increasing.

Very soon we will have businesses based on cow dung

and cow urine and income obtained from cow will in-

crease by several times.

The above facts show that all these estimates are

imaginative and beyond reality. Therefore, we are giv-

ing a practical example in order to explain the economic

viability of cow dung.

The economic revolution seen in the dairy farm of

Govind Vallabh Pant Agriculture and Technology Uni-

versity with cow dung resources is as follows. One must

visit this dairy farm in order to analyze the economic

revolution with ones eyes.

The dairy farm which was

making losses is now mak-

ing profits only with the use

of cow dung. There are

around 750 cows and buf-

faloes in this dairy farm.

Around 150 to 200 quintals

of cow dung is obtained

daily along with left over

fodder. Previously it was put into cultivable land or flown

in river. This used to create the problem of termite, flies,

mosquitoes, snakes, insects and ammonia smell. The

dairy farm has seen a face lift from the day cow dung

is being used in the form of vermi compost, vermin wash

etc.

The economic condition of dairy farm has changed

surprisingly. It has also overcome the problem of am-

monia smell, flies, mosquitoes, snakes, and insects.

Around 20-30 people have got direct employment and

there is tremendous change with cleanliness and eco-

nomic condition of the dairy farm. Presently, cow dung

is mainly used in the form of vermin compost and the

grapes, banana and vegetables are grown in the middle

portion of vermi bed which is full of organic qualities.

The productivity and variety is better than normal fruits

and vegetables. The cost of these fruits and vegetables

is also high. The soil which is used for making vermin

compost is also used for growing fruits and vegetables.

This increases the income and organic material is ob-

tained from extract of fruits and vegetables for making

vermi compost.

The above mentioned facts and examples prove

that cow dung has different qualities. These qualities

can increase the income from cow dung more than milk.

As mentioned earlier, if cow dung is used for making

biodynamic manure then the income will increase twice

when compared to gross cattle farming income. Cow

dung should be used for making pooja material, incense

sticks, tiles etc, cow dung can be a main element in

ayurvedic medicines and processing of medicines. This

will increase the significance of cow dung as well as

income. The above mentioned qualities of cow dung

prove that cow dung is not just gold but more valuable

than gold. Therefore it should be used to the fullest.

Patanjali Yogpeeth has

moved ahead in order to in-

crease the utility of cow

dung, cow and gives it the

correct status. Here the

germplasm of good breeds

of cows will be collected

and their physical, economic

and medicinal qualities will

be analyzed. The cow urine,

cow dung etc. obtained from cow will be tested scien-

tifically regarding its economic and medicinal qualities.

Revered swami Ramdev Ji Maharaj and Acharya

Balkrishna have made efforts to bring in public aware-

ness of divine qualities of cow and give it the status that

it deserves.

In the coming days, cow dung will be used for mak-

ing biogas and vermin compost in fodder fields and pro-

duce milk. If the dreams of biogas and organic farming

are also fulfilled then another white revolution will be

seen in dairies using cow dung. The above facts clari-

fies that cow dung is not garbage, compost but an ele-

ment which keeps the environment pure, increase soil

fertility and prevent several diseases in human beings.

This will completely prove the saying of our sages and

seers that goddess Lakshmi resides in cow dung.

Sage: Priyamedha, Lord: Indra; Prose: Gayatri

Word Meaning: Yathavido- You, in order to obtain knowledge of truth; Gopitam- lord of sensory organs;

Indram- of soul; Gira- with speech; Abhi Pra Archa- worship that soul whole heartedly; Satyam sunum –

who is son of truth and ; Saptim- always nurtures truth.

Appeal: Oh Man! If you want you to obtain knowledge of truth then you should go into the shelter of

Indra. The sensory organs, which are supposed to be resource of direct knowledge, will only give you

limited knowledge and will create illusionary knowledge several times; the mind will also not take you far

and your mind that is full of jealousy and hatred will use its logical ability only for incorrect arguments. The

knowledge obtained from external sources, in other words from learned people’s advices and books

written by logical experts will confuse you further. You will get the true knowledge from your inner self,

from your soul and will give you peace of mind. You search it in your soul, which is the lord of all these

sensory organs, which has given you entire strength and has made mind and other sensory organs its

resources, which is like true knowledge, which is the son of supreme soul and which is nurturer of truth by

nature. Oh man! You worship this lord of truth, pray him, make all efforts to make him happy and you will

find the truth. You also do indirect worship through your verbal strength. You will have to use truth in order

to worship the lord of truth. You will have to follow truth in your speech, behavior, and in every action; you

will have to be truthful in your inner self also and think thoughtfully. When you look into your inner self

then you will realize that how difficult it is to worship with true speech, but it is also true that when you will

finish this worship then your true soul will appear and will open its invaluable treasure of true knowledge

in front of you. Then you will not have any confusion, your clean mind will give correct logic, your sensory

organs will also appear clear, and the most important thing is that at that time you will attain true knowl-

edge free of any conditions with which you will be enlightened with the true knowledge on whichever

subject you desire. The soul, lord of truth, which follows truth will always protect you for truth. This is the

natural result of worshipping truth with speech. Oh Man! You pray this Indra of truth, worship it whole-

heartedly indirectly.

Indian immigrants who went to America for employment, education

and business took with them their identity and behavior which had Hindu

impression. When they settled in America, the Americans were very impressed

with the mutual faith, dedication and co-operation between the couples. The

Indian values became the center of their attraction.

An article published in News Week says that today Americans are see-

ing the chanting of Aum and the process related to it as a solution. The num-

ber of people inclining towards spiritualism is increasing. It increased from 24

percent in 2005 to 30 percent in 2009. Nowadays, one can hear the chanting

of Aum in any prayer meetings held in America. 30 percent of Americans like

to be called as spiritual person instead of religious person. American citizens

are gradually molding themselves as per sage tradition related to god and

immortal element.

If today, the chanting of Aum is being heard all over America then the

credit goes to Swami Vivekananda for his speech in Chicago world religious

conference and Yogrishi Swami Ramdev Ji Maharaj.

The impact of economic crisis of strong economic American culture was

seen on every segment. The family system was weak earlier also and the

worry of future and over luxurious life made them obese and diseased.

The author of the article published in News Week has reached to the

conclusion on the basis of various surveys that the spirituality is increasing in

Americans in place of religious feeling. Therefore, 65 percent Americans

believe in the principles mentioned in Rigveda in spite of the fact that 76

percent of Americans are Christians. They believe in the Indian principle that

as all the rivers flows towards the sea in the same way all the paths go

towards God. The principle of equality of religions has been prevalent in India

since ancient times. The people have faith in mortality of body and immortal-

ity of soul, rebirth, and soul leaving one body after death and entering another

body. The author has called it ‘Faith.’ Therefore, the author believes on the

basis of surveys that every third American is expressing the opinion of burn-

ing the dead bodies like Hindus. The reason is that they have started believing

in rebirth. Our sages have called Yog as the method of removing conditions

from mind. Mind is playful and wanders here and there. Yog can control its

playfulness. Self control arouses pious feelings. The pious feeling inspires us

to maintain harmony with everything around us. Because, everything present

around us is the creation of God. This is spiri-

tualism. America, a prosperous country is

increasing its affection towards Indian

spiritualism.

China that is running on the fast track

of economic development has also ac-

cepted Yog as the resource of mental and

physical peace.yog is deepening its roots

in this country at a very fast rate. The people

of china have been following religious and spiri-

tual discipline in order to strengthen the mental and physi-

cal health. But today Yog is above any religion, sect,

geographical boundary, breed, cultures and has become

a part of daily routine of mankind. Yog has entered into

all countries whether it is Pakistan or Italy that follows

Roman Catholic religion, Cambodia that follows Bud-

dhism or China or Jewish land Israel. It is interesting to

note that in Pakistan, the initiative to teach Yog has been

taken by Shahbaj Ali Khan, famous Yog teacher but not

by a Hindu. American citizens are spending three bil-

lion dollars annually on Yog classes, Yog tools, clothes,

Yog tours, videos and other Yog products. A survey

conducted by ‘Yog Journal’ shows that the number of

people practicing Yog regularly has increased from 1.65

crores in 2005 to 2 crores at present.

The profession of Yog teacher has become very

lucrative and the income per Yog class is between 80

and 125 dollars. An American practicing Yog is spend-

ing on average 1500 dollars annually.

As per Yog journal, Yog is booming as an industry

in 21 Asian countries and the annual turnover of this

industry is more than 50 crores dollar. The Pure Yog

Studio of Hong Kong is considered to be the biggest

Yog studio of the world. One can see people of all groups

engrossed in practicing Yogasana and madras, be it a

common man, a corporator or a celebrity.

Millions of people attend Yog camps of Swami

Ramdev Ji Maharaj organized in nook and corner of

India and learn the intricacies of Yog. His popularity

can be assessed from the fact that Queen Elizabeth of

England invited him on tea in 2006 and Steel emperor,

Lakshmi Mittal took out time to meet Swami Ji.

Chief Secretary of USA requested for his co-op-

eration to make the millennium program successful. The

television channels which broadcast Swami Ji’s pro-

gram have increased viewership rate. It is evident that

people have come into the shelter of Yog to attain men-

tal peace since they have started facing stress

and depression due to comfortable life style.

Countries like America, Canada and

Britain were glittering with the lights of

Deepawali festival. The local govern-

ments are also giving importance to this

festival. Mayor of London, Boris Johnson

began Deepawali Festival Season on 4th

October 2009 and the historical Trafalgar

Square was shining with lights. The streets of

London were glittering with lights.

The Indians have come out as a single minority

community in both America and Canada. They have

gained name and fame in the fields of politics, finance,

education and business. This is the result of the intelli-

gence of Indians that this year Deepawali was cel-

ebrated at White House in America. President Barrack

Obama invited around 150 guests at White House on

this occasion and organized party with diyas and tradi-

tional Indian food. However, Deepawali is celebrated

at national level in Britain but it is limited in those cities

of America which have a large number of Indian popu-

lations. Cracker display and grand parties are organized

by prominent people on the occasion of Deepawali in

New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Chicago,

Washington. Canada has lot of Sikh and Gujarati popu-

lation and here also Deepawali was celebrated at Prime

Minister’s residence.

American President, Barrack Obama having faith

in Indian values started a new tradition. He lighted the

lamp amidst chanting of Vedic mantras for world peace

and celebrated Deepawali. This was the first instance

when American president participated in Deepawali

celebrations at White House. Pandit Narayan Acharya

Digalakote chanted Vedic mantras in Shiva Vishnu

temple. Addressing the people in East Room of White

House President Obama said that this festival denotes

the victory of good over bad. He said that he is very

happy to light the lamp at White House. It is the first

instance when an American president has celebrated

this festival and given it government recognition. Previ-

ously, Deepawali was celebrated in a building situated

next to White House. Yog, Ayurved and Indian tradi-

tions are gaining global recognition. The western people

are fed up of luxurious life style and accepting Indian

traditions at a very fast pace. The credit goes to re-

vered Swami Ramdev Ji Maharaj.

Vivekananda hoisted the

flag of Hindu religion at

Chicago religious con-

ference and started going to different places and left a

lasting impression on the minds of the people. However he

did not forget his India. His motherland, the misery in the

eyes of the downtrodden used to always come in front of

his eyes. Once he wrote in a letter, “We will have to re-

move all gods and goddesses from our minds for the next

50 years. Only god aroused in our mind is our nation. Wor-

shipping this mighty nation is real worship. The first god-

dess whom we will pray is our motherland and Indian is

our first god.”

He said, “Before coming to other countries I love my

country from the bottom of my heart. But now the air of

India and every dust particle is more sacred than heaven.

Indian land is sacred land. It is my mother, India is my

pilgrimage.”

Swami Ji’s heart was eager to see the motherland once

the ship left Colombo. Tears rolled down his cheeks as

soon as the ship reached the banks of the sea. He bowed

in front of the sea and prayed to motherland.

As soon as the ship was anchored, Swami Ji got down

from it crazily and bowed down to touch the motherland.

It was appearing as if a child is getting into the laps of his

mother. He said, “All the people following western culture

should get into the laps of mother land.”

Swami Vivekananda Ji told the ascetics:

Listen! These miserly and poor people are so simple at

heart. Can’t you reduce their troubles even little? Then

what is the use of wearing these saffron clothes? Some-

times my mind says that what is the use of building the

temples? Sell these and donate to the poor people. We live

under the shade of the tree, then why should we worry

about our houses? When our fellow citizen is starving for

one morsel, won’t we feel ashamed to eat food? Mother!

Is there no solution to this problem? You know that one of

the objectives to go to western countries for propagating

our religion was to find resource for nurturing our country-

men. I see their sorrows and miseries and think that this

prayers and worship should be given up, sounding the bell

and lighting the lamp should be stopped, we should leave

the habit of praying for salvation, and knowledge of clas-

sics. Go to each and every village and serve the poor and

needy people, make the rich people realize their responsi-

bilities towards the society, collect wealth and resources,

which can be used for the service of the poor people.

Look, how so many untouchables are converting into Chris-

tianity in Madras (now Chennai) due to insensitive attitude

of Hindus. Do not think that they are converting their reli-

gion due to starvation. They have become Christians be-

cause you could not transmit your empathy to them. You

have always been telling them not to touch. Do not touch

this, do not touch that. Make it clear in your mind, “Until

these people do not rise, Indian will not progress. If we are

unable to provide them food and clothes then what is our

utility? Go, make collective efforts and remove the veil of

darkness from their eyes.”

Republic Day Parade which has become the pride of the nation was organizedfor the first time on 26th January, 1950 at Irwin Stadium (national stadium). Presi-dent, Dr. Rajendra Prasad left Rashtrapati Bhawan in his six horse chariot at 2.30p.m and reached the venue via Connaught Circus at 3.45 p.m. First Republic Dayparade was held in the evening. President took the salute with 31 firing of guns, nowthere is a tradition of 21 firing of guns.

Next year the parade was held at Kingsway, which later came to be known asRajpath. At that time, the parade used to begin from Kingsway and follow the routeof Curzon Road, Connaught circus, Irwin Road and end at Gol Post Office. In thisyear, four Paramvir Chakras were awarded for the first time.

In 1952 the parade was held from old Delhi, red fort and ended at ChandiniChowk. Many old people must be still remembering the procession of EmperorAshok, in which he was shown sending messengers to other countries.

Folkdances were included in the republic day parade of 1953 and fire crackerswere displayed at Ramlila Ground on 26th January. In this year, the tribal people ofTripura, Assam and Arunachal Pradesh were invited to see the parade in order toarouse national feeling in them.

In 1955, 50 ironsmith groups came from Rajasthan, who reminded everybody ofMaharana Pratap who fought against Akbar. Mushaira was started in Divan-e-Aamof Red Fort.

The tradition of inviting chief guests from other countries on this occasion beganfrom 1950. Indonesian President, Sukarno came with his wife in that year. GovernorGulam Mohammed of Pakistan was invitee for 1955 Republic Day, Chinese Marshall,Ye Chin Ying came as chief guest in 1958. It is interesting to note that Food andAgriculture Minister of Pakistan; RanaAbdul Hamid was invited as the chief guestin 1965 and after few days both the countries had to fight war. You must be thinkingthat Russian President visited India on this occasion many times. It is not true;Vladimir Putin had recently visited India on republic day. Nobody has been invitedfrom America till now. The highest number of times to invite a guest on republic dayhas been from France. Till now, chief guests from France have visited India fourtimes on this occasion.

Nowadays, people are avoiding going out of their houses to watch republic dayparade due to security reasons and lethargy. However, 20 lakh people had watchedthe parade in 1960. This was the first time when bravery awards to children weregiven. On this occasion, one of the elephants had created chaos but was controlled.

In 1962, the parade was so long that it had reached red fort but one end of theparade was still at India gate only.

1963 republic day parade reminded us the defeat against china. Dilip Kumar,Talat Mahmud and Lata Mangeshkar collected Prime Minister Relief fund on thisoccasion.

Lt. Col. S.S.Kohli, who climbed Mt. Everest, was the center of attraction in1965. 164 airplanes mesmerized people in 1968.

Tribute paid to the martyrs at Amar Javan Jyoti in 1973 was the highlight and firstwoman IPS officer, Kiran Bedi leading the Delhi Police troupe was the hot topic. In1982, Appu of Asian games was very interesting for the people. Similarly, Arjun tankmade indigenously filled the people’s heart with pride in 1966 parade.

Parkinson’s is a disease in which the patient loses

control over different organs and suffers from shiver-

ing. The patient finds it difficult to control his body move-

ments. The muscles become hard and stiff and lose

their flexibility, as a result the patient finds difficulty in

walking and doing routine work.

Science is also not aware if Parkinson’s is a heredi-

tary problem or there are other reasons for it.

Parkinson’s means trouble along with other age related

problems. In majority of the cases, it is considered to be

a common old age problem and patients do not take

treatment also.

Muscles lose their flexibility with increasing age. If

the life style is inactive then the movement of hands

and legs reduces to a great extent. But in case of

Parkinson’s the physical posture gets affected. The

neck, back, elbows and knees bend. The patient feels

difficulty in walking, sitting, and doing routine work. The

patient is unable to walk even two steps.

Medicines and exercise alone are not enough to treat

this. The most important thing is to

provide right environment for the

patient where he or she can live

happily and peacefully amidst

their dear ones. Lack of peace

of mind, worries, disrespect,

negative thoughts aggra-

vates this disease. Dopam-

ine can be increased even

in case of good art of liv-

ing is practiced. Dopam-

ine activates the internal

circuits of the brain and sends

the messages to the related

organs.

In case of Parkinson’s a

special group of neurons get

destroyed. These neurons join

the brain cells. They secrete

dopamine, which gives

chemical indications to the

brain. Yogasana, pranayam

and life style changes improve

the health of the pa-

tient.

Yogic cure:

v Yog has tremendous power

and can cure almost all the dis-

eases occurring in the body. Regu-

lar practice of yoga gives ben-

efit. It should be done depend-

ing on individual physical capac-

ity. It is also necessary to practice it

as per the methodology. If it is not

done as per the prescribed method

then it can be harmful. Therefore, you

should have full knowledge about the

asana that you are practicing.

v Parkinson’s patients should

practice Surya Namaskara.

This asana strengthens all the organs of the body

and makes them disease free. This is a complete

exercise.

v Regular practice of Akarnadhanushtakarasana gives

special benefit in case of Parkinson’s. It relieves the

joint pain in hands and legs and strengthens the

muscles. Parkinson’s patient should practice it as

much as possible.

v Hastapadangushtasana should be practiced daily for

special benefits. It overcomes diseases of hands and

legs. This is the best asana for the patients of

Parkinson’s. It should be practiced daily depending

on individual capacity.

Pranayam:

v Regular practice of Pranayam gives lot of benefit to

Parkinson’s patient. It is brain related disease and

pranayam improves the health of the brain. It is a

divine and wonderful exercise.

v Bhastrika pranayam provides pure vital life energy

to the brain. It purifies the blood and removes the

poisonous elements from the body.

v Kapalbhati increases the glow, brightness and beauty

of the face and forehead. It prevents constipation.

It cures all the internal and external diseases of the

body.

v Anulom-Vilom and Nadishodhan pranayam are ex-

cellent exercises for a Parkinson’s patient. These

pranayam remove the reasons responsible for

Parkinson’s.

v Ujjayi pranayam is also beneficial in case of

Parkinson’s. It overcomes all the disorders of the

brain and gives relief to the patient.

Our hearts are filled with national feeling espe-

cially when the nation is facing some problems like war,

terrorist attack, floods, earthquake or some serious epi-

demic. Some momentary emotions are seen on 15th

August and 26th January when the whole country re-

sounds with patriotic songs. This one day patriotic feel-

ing is seen only twice in a year.

Many myths have occupied our minds knowingly or

unknowingly with respect to national spirit. We can ex-

plain it in this way that we never tried to understand our

responsibility towards the nation. Nevertheless we have

to experience the ill effects of this in our daily life, for

example, littered surroundings, mosquito menace, lack

of drinking water, global warming, pollution etc. But we

hardly think about the reasons for these problems.

Whenever we think about patriotism we think about a

soldier fighting in a war or martyrs who sacrificed their

lives for the country. We never develop the feeling that

every citizen of the country, whether male or female,

young or old, everybody has a duty towards the nation,

a responsibility to be fulfilled. Every citizen of the coun-

try is equally responsible towards the nation as much as

a Prime Minister or a Chief Minister. This responsibility

can be fulfilled only when we keep national interest in

mind and fulfill our duties and tasks with honesty and

dedication.

We generally believe that we alone cannot bring in

any changes in the country. When we throw our litter

on the streets then also the same psychology works

behind it. What will happen if I throw the litter outside

the house? Who does not want development of the na-

tion, but, it requires selfless efforts and very few people

can actually gather the courage to do so. It is extremely

necessary to analyze others contribution in our own lives.

This life is dependent on co-existence, nation, society,

family have an important contribution. The feeling of

indebtedness will develop only when we understand this

and we will have the feeling of serving the nation.

If we think with a cool mind then we will find that

national property is nothing else but hard earned wealth

of the countrymen given to the government in the form

of taxes. This should be utilized only for the public wel-

fare. If it is misused, whether it is politician, govern-

ment servant, government contractor or businessman,

then they have to pay for it sometime or the other in

some form or the other. This is rule of nature and can-

not be ruled against. We can protect ourselves cleverly

from the manmade rules but it is not possible to save

ourselves from rules of the nature.

The biggest problem in front of the nation today is

lack of national feeling. If the feeling of national inter-

est develops within us then all the other problems will

be resolved automatically. It is necessary to sacrifice

the desires without selfishness and pay attention on

national interest. Everybody should do their part of work

honestly and sincerely. The national feeling should not

be expressed at some occasions but it should be there

in our hearts. National love is the only effective source

to beautify our lives.

Synopsis of the poem: Tricolor is India’s pride

and honor. It should reach great heights and this is

the desire of the millions of Indians. The tricolor asks

that people should not bend. It faces storm and sun.

Tricolor is inspiring the people to continue on their

path without stopping and gives the message of ris-

ing above. The poet is saying that one should not be

dishonest even in tough times as tricolor is pride of

India. It is the tricolor of youth, farmers and it should

be kept near us even during death. It is the symbol

of Indian independence.

Children today I will tell you the story of a great man who was a social

reformer, thinker, politician and a dutiful person. His name was Raja Ram

Mohan Rai.

The story dates back to 1744. There was a district in Bengal by the name

of Burdwan. There was a village called Radhanagar in that district. The thread

maker of that village was very famous and the demand was seen up to Eu-

rope. East India Company had established one big house in this place in view

of business potential. A famous Brahmin family used to live in Radhanagar.

The head of that family was a very religious and orthodox person. A child took

birth in that family, who later shined in the form of Indian pride. The name of

that Indian pride was Raja Ram Mohan Rai. At that time, India was facing

serious problems related to non-governance. There was Mughal rule but the

British were strengthening their roots and the Nawabs were ready to kill each

other. On the other hand, the Portuguese, Dutch, French and English were

trying to go ahead of one another. India was the lone victim of their games.

At that time, Arabians and Persians were strong. Therefore, Rammohan

Rai was sent to Patna for his education. There he studied Quran and Islamic

religious books and also books authored by Arastu and Ukledas. The books

were translated in Arabic language. Meanwhile he studied poems of Sufi po-

ets of Persia. All the poems were inspired by philosophy. He wrote a book in

Persian language at the age of 16 years. The book was titled, ‘Tohfatul Moiddin.’

He had written its pretext in Arabian language. He had condemned idol wor-

ship in this book. One day Rammohan’s father saw that book. He read it and

was deeply hurt. He expressed his anger and asked Rammohan to burn that

book. But he was not ready for it. The argument increased and Rammohan

left his home for the sake of his principles. The book was published in 1804

after Rammohan’s father’s death. Its English translation is also available now.

Rammohan was wandering after leaving his home and reached Tibet. There

he studied the Buddhist books. He lived there for four years and went to

Banaras where he lived for ten years. During this period he studied several

Sanskrit and Hindu religious books. He went to Calcutta from Banaras. Mean-

while he had also gained proficiency in English language. On 7th March, 1830,

Rammohan Rai was made the Diwan of collector of Jalalpur, Dhaka by East

India Company. He improved his English language skills while serving on this

post.

He took retirement in 1814 and went to Kolkata and started social and

religious reform work. He set up Atmiya Sabha for this purpose. A weekly

meeting used to be held in the garden of his home. The subject of the meeting

used to be social issues. Atmiya Sabha organized a procession in 1819. Pandit

Raja Ram Mohan Roy

There was lot of commo-

tion in Hindu society of

Bengal. Raja Ram

Mohan Ray's sister –in-

law was forced to become

Sati after her husband’s

death in 1811. From that

day itself, Rammohan

had decided to remove

this social evil. He had to

fight for this cause with

the social leaders for

around 15 years. Only

then he got the support

from Lord William

Bentinck and a law was

made to stop this system.

Subramanyam Shastri was also present in that proces-

sion. They got into discussion on idol worship and con-

tinued for several days. Shastri could not win over

Rammohan Rai’s arguments. Rammohan presented

excellent logics for which Shastri had no answers.

Rammohan’s protest against Sati system had antago-

nized religious leaders.

There was lot of commotion in Hindu society of

Bengal. His sister –in-law was forced to become Sati

after her husband’s death in 1811. (Jagmohan Rai was

elder brother of Rammohan Rai). From that day itself,

Rammohan had decided to remove this social evil. He

had to fight for this cause with the social leaders for

around 15 years. Only then he got the support from

Lord William Bentinck and a law was made to stop this

system.

Meanwhile he studied Angel and Torat to understand

the religion of Christians and Jews. He had to learn

Hebrew language for this as Angel was written in this

language. He had translated this book into English,

which was published in Calcutta (now Kolkata) in 1820.

However the priest’s community did not tolerate this

and wrote several articles against Rammohan. These

articles were published in Friend of India. Rammohan

was also not ready to give up. He gave very good reply.

This went on for long time. Finally, he wrote an article

which was published in ‘Akhiri Appeal.’ It was praised

in America and Europe.

In 1823, East India Company decided to form a com-

mittee with the objective of providing Arabian and San-

skrit education to Indians. Rammohan wrote a letter to

governor general, he wrote that if the government re-

ally wanted to educate the Indians then it should make

arrangements to teach them European education re-

lated subjects like chemistry, science, biology, philoso-

phy and other science subjects. If it wanted to keep

the people in darkness then there is no better system

than old system of education prevailing in the country.

Rammohan was correct; he had demanded the right

thing at the right time. The letter had a deep impact on

the mind of governor general and he opened schools

and colleges in Kolkata.

On 20th August 1828, Rammohan converted Atmiya

Sabha into Brahmasamaj. This was a successful effort

in order to improve Hindu society. He knew that politi-

cal progress is not possible until the social evils are not

eradicated from the society. Brahmasamaj was a com-

mon platform for all those who believed in one God and

gathered here without any differences. It progressed a

lot within a period of two years and the members of this

organization felt the need for having a separate room

for prayer. Rammohan Rai agreed to this and got a

separate prayer room constructed at his own cost.

The religious leaders did not keep quite in spite of

sati act being passed. They appealed against it in En-

gland also. In that period only, last Mughal emperor

Bahadur Shah’s father Akbar shah II sent Rammohan

as his barrister to England for cases related to his pen-

sion and other problems. Before sending him to En-

gland, the emperor honored him with title ‘Raja.’ But,

East India Company did not agree with the emperor.

Therefore, Rammohan did not accept the title. But, still

he took 70 thousand rupees for travel expenses from

royal treasure and went to England.

Raja Rammohan Rai reached England and fought

the case of Akbar Shah, he also presented the appeal

letter prepared in favor of Lord William Bentinck against

the Hindus appeal of Bengal. He also gave witness on

judicial arrangements and goods transport method from

India in front of a parliament committee. Later he went

to France from England.

This was the last Europe trip of Rammohan. He

passed away on 27th September 1833 in the famous

city Bristol of England. Raja Rammohan Rai was not

only a social reformer, thinker and a religious person

but he was also a politician. He was first an Indian who

had understood the importance of newspapers with a

political perspective and tried to get the best out of it.

Therefore, he published Bengali and Persian newspa-

pers. His Persian newspaper was circulated both in Iran

and middle Asia. He was the first Indian who had un-

derstood the American freedom fight and France revo-

lution in the true sense. He had interest in those for-

eigners who sacrificed their lives for the sake of inde-

pendence.

He was the first Indian who gave the correct direc-

tion to the country and the society. He had brought

magnificent changes in social and political life. His mind

and soul was filled with Indian patriotism. A wise, pure

hearted and intelligent patriot and social reformer like

him are born once in ages. His life is like a pillar of light

for all Indians.

Lala Lajpat Rai was known as Lion

of Punjab. He was indeed the lion not only

for Punjab but entire India. His voice was

like soon of a lion. The British government

used to shiver with the roar of Lala Lajpat

Rai just like the wild animals of forest do

with the roar of lion.

Lalaji was born on 28th January 1865

in Jagraon village of Ludhiana district. His

father was Radhakrishna and mother was Gulab Devi.

The thoughts of parents played an important role

in character building of young Lajpat Rai. He once

wrote – ‘I have inherited generosity, truthfulness and

helping nature from my mother. The religious nature

developed inside me due to her. My father has played

equally important role in building my life. I have gained

patriotism and sacrificing nature for the country from

him. Both, my father and mother have been my Gurus.’

Lalaji obtained his primary education from his fa-

ther. He was a sharp student with good intelligence and

used to stand first in his class. He passed out middle

school with good marks at the age of 13 years. He

obtained very good marks and was qualified for schol-

arship.

Lalaji passed his high school examination in 1880.

He went to Lahore for his graduation after completing

high school. He passed both intermediate and law ex-

aminations in 1885. He was very studious and hard

working student.

He started his practice in Hisar (Haryana). He

opened school for weak students and vocational school

for women. He went to Lahore and continued his prac-

tice and simultaneously joined the freedom struggle. He

earned both name and fame as a lawyer in Lahore along

with lot of wealth.

Lalaji used to say, ‘Youth of India, mother India is

being tortured by foreigners. Be strong and free the

mother India from foreign rule.

India was hit by famine on one side and plague on

the other side in 1896-97. Millions of people died due to

this. Lalaji contributed a lot with the help of

society. He boldly condemned Christians

against conversion and stopped it.

He went to England in 1905 along with

the dignitaries and gave speeches for India’s

independence. He also wrote several ar-

ticles. He expressed in front of the nation

that freedom cannot be gained by asking

or pleading. A physical struggle was nec-

essary in order to gain it. The leaders of this party were

with Lokmanya Tilak.

He strongly spoke during the congress conference

in 1906 and said that we have to get rid of this begging

nature. He also started a revolution on the question of

taxation on farmers in Punjab. As a result, Lalaji was

asked to leave the country and sent to Mandla jail.

Muslim league was involved in communal riots in

1925. It was also demanding India’s division. Lalaji de-

cided to unite Hindus in order to stop this division. Hindu

Mahasabha was formed with his inspiration. Lalaji also

worked to stop untouchability and women education.

Simon commission was set up in India in 1928.

Congress passed a resolution and declared boycott of

Simon commission. It was opposed and boycotted

through meetings and processions wherever it went.

The commission reached Lahore station on 30th Octo-

ber 1928, a large crowd gathered outside the station to

boycott it. Lalaji was the leader of this group.

Police stopped the procession outside and suddenly

started lathicharge. A white soldier hit Lalaji on the or-

ders of Police chief Sanders. Lalaji was hurt on his

chest and he fell down. On being hurt by British sol-

diers, Lalaji said, ‘the sticks that are hurting my body

will work like nails downfall of British rule.’

Lalaji was immediately taken to the hospital and

lots of efforts were made to save his life. But, all in

vain. He left this world forever on 17th November 1928

and the lion that used to roar, became silent forever.

The efforts and sacrifices made by Lalaji to free

India will always be remembered by Indians and in-

spire us towards patriotism.

Construction of Houston International Yog and

Research Center will begin from next summer

Yog will be established in the whole world within

25 years – Swami Ramdev

Invitation to citizens of USA to become mem-

bers of Patanjali Yogpeeth

Revered Swami Ramdev Maharaj addressed the

trustees, board members, advisors, members and Yog

teachers of Patanjali Yogpeeth at Houston, USA and

declared that the construction of International Yog and

Research Center Houston will begin from next sum-

mer. The cost of construction of first phase of this cen-

ter would be to the tune of Rs. 50 crores. Swami Ji

expressed hope that citizens of Houston and America

will donate generously for this cause and become mem-

bers of the center.

Swami Ramdev Ji Maharaj was welcomed at the

Swami Narayan Temple at Stafford near Houston.

Revered Swami Ji explained about all the eight types of

pranayam at Yog camp and also demonstrated in front

of the people. He said that different types of asana and

pranayam are recommended for different diseases.

Swami Ji said that Yog is a life style and also a health

building system. Yog keeps us healthy and removes

stress and provides peace of mind along with spiritual

progress. He said that stress is the reason for most of

the diseases.

Swami Ji Maharaj said that Yog will be established

in the whole world in next 25 years. The representative

of Texas State, Al Edward will raise the subject of in-

cluding Yog in school curriculum in the next session.

Edward said that he will encourage the proposal to

include Yog education in public schools of Texas.

Vandana Jaiswal, Yog teacher of Oklahoma City said

that we are remembering whatever we have learnt at

Haridwar.

Revered Swami Ji addressed the people present in

a Yog camp organized on the occasion of Deepawali

and said that the lamps lighted in this festival denote the

victory of truth over false and the return of Shri Rama

to Ayodhya. Swami Ji said that everybody should make

their bodies like Ayodhya and inculcate the divine quali-

ties of Shri Rama in their hearts. Truth and false al-

ways exist together. Man should always be with truth.

Revered Swami Ji said that Yog makes the body and

mind healthy.

It needs to be mentioned that 94 acres of land has

been proposed for Yog and research center at

Rozenworg. Swami Ji Maharaj has performed the land

praying ceremony (Bhoomi Poojan) earlier itself.

Hill craft, Shoot C-2 A, Houston Texas 77036. A vaidya

will soon be appointed at this center. Books, DVDs,

CDs and Divya Pharmacy products will also be avail-

able at the center.

The task of extending the reach of Yog and

Ayurved till the last person is commendable –

World class natural cure center at Yog Gram:

Acharya Balkrishna

Governor of Mizoram, Lt. General M.M.Lakheda

said at Patanjali Yogpeeth that Swami Ramdev is using

Yog as weapon and fighting against diseases at interna-

tional level. Millions of people have become disease

free and they have got new life. Swami Ji has taken the

initiative to make the entire world healthy with Yog and

Ayurved. This is indeed commendable. The governor

shared this view after visiting Patanjali Yogpeeth and

said that people are migrating from their native places

in search of livelihood. Poverty, starvation and unem-

ployment are the national problems today and these prob-

lems are shameful for the nation. Swami Ji is trying to

overcome these problems at his own level. We have to

fight them out because nobody will come from outside

to help us.

Revered Swami Ji Maharaj has setup biggest mega

Food Park at Haridwar and has generated employment

Acharya Balkrishna Ji Maharaj garlanding

opportunities to people of Uttarakhand and given a spe-

cial place on the world map. Governor remembered the

past and said that I am born and brought up in

Uttarakhand, I remember this place and how could I

miss my visit to Patanjali Yogpeeth after coming here?

The Yog Ganga is flowing from this place and providing

good health to everybody. He said that including Yog

curriculum in the school syllabus will make the future

generation disease free and cultured, at the same time

it will also give them a new direction. The work that

Swami Ji Maharaj is doing is for national benefit along

with individual benefit. This will make them disease free

and healthy and give back the status of world mentor to

India.

Acharya Balkrishna expressed his views on this

occasion that Yog, Ayurved and natural cure are being

used under the guidance of Swami Ramdev Ji Maharaj.

A world class natural cure center has been established

at Yog Gram with the objective of providing good health

to people. There is a wonderful combination of tradi-

tional and new natural cure method at this center. Hon-

orable Governor inaugurated the Yog teaching and train-

ing department, Yog Sandesh department, Yog research

and development, dental treatment, radiology depart-

ment, pathology center, library, Panchakarma and re-

search department, eye and research department in the

Yogpeeth is indeed working for the welfare of the man-

kind.

We want to associate every person with Yog and arouse the feeling of national duty in them.We want to fill the hearts of each and every person with national spirit. We want to use our

entire energy for the national progress by practicing Yog everyday and develop our internalself. We want to arouse the souls with Yog and take forward the pious mission of nationalawareness. Questions arise in the minds of several people regarding the relation betweenYog and national development? We want to clarify that national development is a dreamwithout internal development. Therefore, we will develop the internal soul through Yogand dedicate the whole day for the national development and progress. Yog duty and

national duty are not contrary but complimentary to one another.The India pride mission is to create 100 percent Yog awareness, 100 percent

organization of patriotic people, 100 percent boycott of foreign companies and promoteindigenous goods, promote 100 percent voting and 100 percent national thinking and make

India a healthy, prosperous and virtuous nation. These are the vows of the members who want toachieve this. This will alone bring in new freedom and new arrangement, which will make great India and put a full stop tothe corruption, which is the biggest problem of the nation. Only a yogi can remain disassociated with the greed of wealth,power, position and luxury. Hence, it is mandatory for every Yog teacher, worker and member of this India pride missionto be a yogi. The reason is that internal strife is created if a person is not a yogi and this leads to dishonesty, corruption,violence, crime, insensitiveness, foolishness, unawareness, non control, impurity and lethargy.

We have started the work of nation building along with Yog awareness and associated Yog duty with national duty.But, we have not created controversy but it is acceptance of Yog in a mighty form. We do not have any doubt, confusion,illusion or misconception with respect to Yog duty and national duty. Our intention and principles are clear and ourobjective is to unite and develop the divided India. Yog means to unite. We want to organize the whole nation through themedium of Yog. We want to make every individual of the nation the first yogi. When every individual of the nation will bea yogi, then he will be a person of strong character, he will be a patriot, teacher and healer, a thoughtful charteredaccountant, he will be a hardworking politician, an aware farmer, a virtuous soldier, security personnel and policeman, adutiful officer, worker and labor, he will be an energetic entrepreneur and businessman, a patriot artist and journalist, ascientist dedicated to the national interest, he will be a healthy, laborious and experienced senior citizen and a sensitiveand wise judge, legislative member because we strongly believe that national progress is not possible without selfprogress. We will practice Yog ourselves and make others do it and make develop good citizens. We will make mother anideal mother. We will develop ideal mothers and fathers and lay the foundation of such culture and values that will give usprogeny like Rama and Krishna. A person who will involve in introspection through Yog will see only society, nation,entire universe and living beings within him and then he will not deceive anybody, he will not involve in violence becausehe will realize that speaking lies, practicing dishonesty and deceiving others is like deceiving one self.

Internal bickering is the reason for corruption, dishonesty, immorality, non governance, insensitiveness prevailing inthe country. We will reestablish the sage culture on this earth through Yog revolution and create happiness, prosperity,peace and progress.

India pride trust was established on 5 January 2009. Millions of Yog teachers, patriots and laborious people havealready got associated with this mission within one year.You can also play an active role in this mission.

Swami Ramdev
