What Abt Swami Ramdevji Maharaj
by nikhil nair on Jul 08, 2008 03:24 PM  Permalink  | Hide replies

Sw Ramdevji Maharaj is the only Guru who has been making a noticeable difference in people's lives by promoting good health and love for our country simply by practising simple Pranayam and Yog..He has reached miilions of people not just in India but across the world not just thru his camps but also through TV on AASTHA Channel.....

may be correct...but Mr. Nair, is it not a way of selling our ancient culture to foreigners as well as Indians by taking huge participation moeny... does he do it free - only on donations? these people have adopted an easy way of commercialiting the Indian culture and the ancient methods of Yoga and Pranayama and trying to gain patents on that.. it is not Ravi Shankar's teachings.. it is the ancient Indian culture being taught by Ravi Shankar...

You can watch ramdev's yoga programs (i.e. if you like) free of cost on astha and other channels.And once again the money collected from rich goes for yog peet ramdev is establishing.

understood rajeev... when we know very well that there are millions of children/people living with poverty without having a day's meal, I wonder how humankind are able to donate large sums to these guruji's and swamiji's for whatever purpose... if you stomach is empty, nothing else goes to your brain to make a happy living..
all these people have created mazing wealth financially as well as by property, land, buildings etc.. and a set of goons to support them and living with them..

I know for a fact that he charges for his Yog Camps.If you take a service you pay for it...Thats acceptable...As far as those who cant pay..he gives free passes to thousands of people in these Yog Camps...

pathetic
by Chanakya on Jul 08, 2008 03:17 PM  Permalink  | Hide replies

but what I found is that most of the time all these Sadhus and Pandits finds opportunity and time to go overseas ( ofcourse from the donation amounts and followers money) and spend enough time there bettering foreigners life teaching them yoga and AOL... Poor Indians are striving with inflation, malnutrition, poverty, etc.. nobody to help them with one time food even... and these organisations have millions of money pouring in from all over the world...whether it is AOL, MATA A, or Yoga Guru...

My Dear chanakya - I am impressed with your concern on poor Indians. Did you raise the matter with MP/MLAs who are authorised to take care of poor Indians ? The politicians beg votes from these poor Indians and they themselves live lavishly possessing dozens of cars and security guards at the cost of public money. Did you ask them why they live in large bungalows at Delhi or in their native town instead of living in a hut ?

What is the problem with Ramakrishna Math? Was there any scandal? FYI - Ramakrishna math & Ramakrishna mission are different. Most of the so called Gurus are engaged in establishing their Super speciality Ashrams collecting donations... But once Swami Vivekananda had thought of even selling of the Math land to gather resources for relief during the plague epidemic at Calcutta. In his ownn words ....
"Let each one of us pray day and night for the downtrodden millions, who are held fast by poverty, priestcraft, and tyranny. Pray day and night for them. I care more to preach religion to them than to the high and the rich. I am no metaphysician, no philosopher, nay, no saint. But I am poor and I love the poor."

He saying he is working for people but when you attend the class one main thing is don't teach this any one. I stayed their place for 2 weeks and closely watched every thing. This person Jaggi Vasudev teaches every one you are nothing in this world and simplicity. This bloody changed youngsters mind and made them sanyasi. And this person uses imported vehicle Land rover.

There are many gurus still living and some passed away. 90% of them have been proved having kama/ lust for money etc etc.
recently also two boys found dead near an ahram of a guruji who give lecture in sony TV. those boys were studying in the ashram. this news will be covered up. ok gurujis keep your aim.

its always easy to say bad things about people who are doing something good for society. all u people who r writing odd things about guruji has never experienced Sudarshan Kriya. If you do that then i am confident u will positively change your mind becoz if terorist can change there mind after doing sudarshan kriya then why can't you.

Helwade,

There is no use in trying to educate these people. Masses, as we call them, they form opinion even before witnessing anything, even before the authorities give the details and even before fact of the matter is found out. E.g. in the Arushi murder case, majority of the readers have passed their verdict that her parents done the crime and they are trying make scapegoat of their servants. They abuses celebreties, ministers (politicians are their favourites). before criticising others, do they really go in for a soul-searching exercise? It is important for everyone of us to ask what we are doing for the socieity, for the nation and for the entire world. If you feel you have not done anything worthy, then you have no right to criticise others. REcently there was a discussion in our group regarding the Amarnath shrine. EVerybody in the group opined that Hindus are a shameless lot, do not have courage to react etc etc and questioned what RSS, VHP and BJP is doing. They all forgot the fact that it is the responsibility of every one of them to act. EVerybody says I am having this problem or that problem, but I support the cause. What is the use of supporting any cause, sitting idle?

Babu
