Assalama alekum va rahmatullah va varkatahu I watch your program on Astha Channel regularly and also practicing yoga for the past one month. 1 was shocked to hear about the allegations cast on you on 3 January 2006. Though I strongly believe that the way you are trying to influence people to quit smoking, cold drinks, fast food and alcohol, in one way you have picked up an open fight with these people.

You have drawn their attention towards the fake palmists, astrologers and babas who are spreading superstitions and also towards the politicians. Therefore this repercussion was somewhat expected. A few years back, misleading propaganda was made against rapeseed oil and breast-feeding in order to sell palm oil and powder milk respectively. You have totally condemned the allegations made against you in an interview telecast on Astha Channel and you have come forward like a huge institution. These allegations have been framed against you under a major conspiracy and you have proved it.

Last week, I visited Apollo Jail Hospital in Kolkata as one of my relative had undergone bypass surgery. I purchased ‘Pranayam Rahasya’ (Hindi) and December 2005 issue of Yoga Sandesh. I noticed that the book and magazine do not contain a single advertisement on medicines or Divya Yoga Mandir Trust. I was surprised to see this.

The respect and faith towards you increased further and I heard your resolution that you would not accept any advertisement or donations from the manufactures of cigarettes, cold drinks, alcohol etc, which are the causes of death of several people. Swami Ji you have put your hand in fire and therefore you have to bear the burns as well.

Your message is very clear and straight – health of people. Health means healthy and positive thoughts in the mind and a strong nation can be made only with the help of clear thoughts. May God bless you in all your deeds?

Yoga Changed My Life

Respected Swami Ji!

I am a resident of Jahanabad district of Bihar. I am class IV government servant. I was suffering from severe stomachache since 2001, which used to reach the chest. Local doctors could not cure it and advised me to visit Patna. I was treated in Patna Medical College for one full night but the pain could not be controlled and the doctors relieved me. I was later admitted into Heart care institution at Patna. After ultra sound scans and X-rays doctors informed that the problem was due to stones in the gall bladder. I took medicines worth Rs.50 and was fine but the doctors advised me for an operation but I went back home.

I came back to Patna in 2004 with the purpose of getting operated. The doctors gave me anesthesia but the pipe used for giving oxygen was not getting inside the throat so doctors gave me an injection to bring me back to senses. Even after several hours I did not get consciousness, the doctors were panicked and told my family members that my respiratory tract has to be cut and the medicines has to be injected from it as my wind pipe was very narrow. The ENT specialists informed that this operation was very risky. The operation was successful but 1 was admitted into another hospital for artificial respiration. I was in the ICU for 13 long days and when I came back to senses I tried to speak but could not speak and recognize anybody. On the basis of CT scan the doctors told that I have lost my memory. I went back to my home but stones could not be operated. The doctors informed that there was nothing wrong with my throat, it was only due to overdose of anesthesia and that I would gradually recover.

On one night in the year 2005 I was sleeping in my house and was watching your program on Astha Channel, suddenly I got up. You were teaching Kapalbhati pranayam at that time, I was inspired at that very moment and started doing Kapalbhati. I practiced for about five minutes and was following you throughout the program. Gradually all the problems got cured and I was totally healthy. I have got back my memory and the voice has also improved. Blood pressure is normal and I have discontinued all the medicines. Now I am sharing this knowledge with other people and yoga cured paralysis of one person in my village.

Yoga Gave Me Second Life

Respected Swami Ji!

I am glad to write this letter as I have got a second life, this was possible through your magazine ‘Yoga Sandesh”. Not only me but also the entire nation is grateful to you for this contribution. I was suffering with psychological problems and allergy for the past two years and was unable to devote time for my studies. As a result I got low marks in my intermediate examination. I lost self-confidence. I started practicing yoga regularly from June 2005 and now I do not need medicines. I am healthy; you and yoga have changed my life completely. You are great because you have the vision of building a healthy India.

Relief From Respiratory And Heart Problem

Respected Swami Ji Maharaj!

I was suffering from heart disease since 1998; I took allopathic medicines as per the doctor’s advice for seven years but in vain. I saw your program on Astha channel one year back and did pranayam as told by you. I practice Bhastrika, Kapalbhati, Anulom-vilom, Brahmari and Omkar with full devotion and dedication. Today I am relieved of respiratory and heart problem and feel completely cured. I have also stopped taking medicines. I have realized that a person can cure all the diseases with the help of yoga. Swami Ji I am grateful to you.

Had I Learnt About Yoga Eight Years Back

Respected Swami Ji!

I am totally healthy and was healthy also in the past. I believe that pranayam is good for the physical and mental health. This also brings in purity and efficiency of the mind. It can be experienced and cannot be expressed in words. I just wish I could have learnt about this knowledge eight years back then I could have saved my wife from cancer. Innumerable people like me have high expectations from you, may God bless you with a long life.

High Blood Pressure Became Normal

Respected Swami Ji!

I participated in the yoga camp from 11 August to 18 August 2005 held at Hardwar. I participated in the camp for curing high blood pressure. Though the blood pressure could not be controlled in the camp, I practiced pranayam regularly at home. I also followed strict diet regimen and I slowly recovered. I never believed in yoga but today I feel that what should one call it, yoga or science or miracle. Yoga has given me a new life. Practicing it in the correct method gives miraculous results.

Yoga Cured Filaria

Respected Swami Ji!

I am 60 years old and am suffering from palpitation for the last four to five years. I become normal only after a rest for two to four hours. One day suddenly the palpitation increased in the morning, my son who is also a doctor admitted me in a medical college. I was checked completely and was advised to take one tablet everyday. I started practicing pranayam from 26 January 2005; I did not take medicines but used to keep it near in case of an emergency. I used to take one or two medicines once in a month or two when palpitation increased. Now I am feeling much better. I was also suffering from filaria of the testes; yoga and asana cured it suddenly. I was suffering with this problem for the past 40 years. I practice yoga everyday and my life style has changed.

Pranayam Gave Positive Thinking And Cured Diseases

Respected Swami Ji Maharaj!

We meet you everyday through Astha channel. A devotee has the happiness of attaining the God and an experience of deep meditation. Your aim is to cure all the bodily complaints through yoga. You have sacrificed everything for the sake of achieving your goal and also inspiring others to become the medium. In February 2004 I was detected tumor in my left leg and was operated at Tata Hospital. The biopsy report said it was Malinger Sarcoma and the Tata report said that it was Higoth Sarcoma. I went through 30 rounds of radiation and suffered a lot. Meanwhile you visited Jalgaon. I could not attend the camp but started practicing pranayam by watching astha channel. I came to Hardwar and took some medicines and felt better. I was keen to attend the camps but could not get the opportunity. But it has been aptly said, ‘where there is a will, there is a way”. With your blessings I got the opportunity in Shirdi and also had the pleasure to stay in close proximity of Saibaba.

I attended the camp from 26 November to 3 December and I had the feeling to live my life. I got the following benefits from the camp:

– My weight reduced from 83 kilos to 78 kilos.
– Bleeding piles were cured.
– Sleep problem and worries reduced, I got peace of mind.
– I have got rid of the habit of drinking tea.
– Moles on the hands and legs vanished.
– My rough and dry hair has turned smooth and silky.
– Acidity has been cured.

These benefits made me believe that I can become totally healthy. Your medicines are available at one-third of the market prices and are pure and good. I am practicing pranayam and also taking medicines, and I believe that I will be totally healthy.

Yours truly,
