Swami Ramdev raises funds in US for university

July 24, 2007 13:27 IST

Yoga guru Swami Ramdev, as part of his mission to raise Rs 100 crore for his proposed yoga and ayurveda university, has visited several US cities and taught yoga at camps that attracted a large number of people, mostly Indians and other South Asians.

About 10,000 people participated in the camps conducted in New York, New Jersey and other states, the organizers said.

Many participants shed 10 pounds of weight after attending just two sessions, according to Animesh Goenka of the Heritage India group, the main organiser of the yoga camps in New York and New Jersey.

Ramdev is the founder of the Divya Yog Mandir Trust and the Patanjali Yogpeeth in Hardwar in Uttarakhand in India. He conducts monthly yoga camps and gives TV shows in India.

''Yoga can prevent diseases; it can't cure the illnesses that need surgery,'' Ramdev told UNI at the conclusion of a camp on nearby Long Island where about 1,300 people participated.

''We don't wish away the modern medicine, but yoga certainly helps prevent certain diseases and reduces the negative effects of some others.''

In his brief interview, he urged Indian-Americans and others to preserve their cultural heritage and teach its values to fellow Americans. He urged the community to help their poorer brethren back home. His two-hour sessions comprised pranayama, asanas and lectures. A team of ayurveda professionals, accompanying Ramdev, offered health-related information at no charge to camp participants.

When Ramdev's project is completed, it will comprise a yoga university, a hall that accommodates 5,000 people to practice yoga, a research center to study the benefits of yoga and ayurveda and a hospital to treat 5,000 patients a day.

    • I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124
    • That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.
    • Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!! 
    • Giani Kulwant Singh Jawaddi Kalan uses simple Punjabi.
    • Leaving aside Guru ji, the general question of taking afeem (opium) in limited quantities for war/medical wounds is simply unproblematic. When you go to the hospital, they give you morphine. What do you think morphine is? It's an opiate. Even codeine (cough syrup) is an opiate! Ever had a cough? Granted, it is against Gurmat to take opium or other drugs for the fun of it.
