In the name of the Ram! Hai Rama!


There is no doubt about it that India is a great country with great people. India’s greatness lies within its peoples and their family-values but always you will find that a fair share of innocent citizen always exploited by a certain section. These certain sections are very lucky one, their main business is exploiting and earning a good life. A billion plus population and due to lack of proper education in rural India, it is very easy to being hitched in the name of ‘RAMA’ and by the numbers of so-called god-man. These self proclaimed god-man neither having any quality and either anything that related to the god. This new age gurus minting money from the rich and poor and then getting billionaire by minimum effort. There are countless of them. There was Rajneesh, Sathya Sai Baba, Mahesh Yogi, Chandraswami, Dhirendra Brahmachari, U. G. Krishnamurti, Nirmala Devi, Anandamayee and Shri Shri Ravi Shankar. They had shown the world that earning money is a matter of joke. At least above-mentioned list kept themselves far from political activity and just happy with their own business. The present Shankaracharya often liked to jump in to the political scenario and now it is Ramdev. A mere yoga instructor getting hot by Anna Hazare’s Satyagraha and he too decided to go on fast. It is nice way getting the worldwide attention but do not forget when fame comes very easily and it is mater of time you may lose it. Do not peel the lemon too hard, it will turn bitter.

I am not against the God, I am a natural believer of the God and for me God is a friend, philosopher who always with me and helping me out in highs and lows, therefore I never need a God-man or I never believed there existing.

Coming back to Ram Krishna Yadav whom people called as Swami/Baba or whatsoever. Ramdev originally from Haryana, has gained popularity for his teachings of Yoga and Pranayama. He shot into prominence when he started the Divya Yog Mandir Trust with the company of Achary Bal Krishna. In 2003, Aastha TV began featuring him in its morning yoga slot. Within a few years, he had gathered a following. He actually is known for his efforts of popularizing yoga. From teaching Yoga, then moved to the Ayurvedic medicine and slowly within no time he turned be a five star Yogi(?). From Patanjali Yoga Peeth now he has Patanjali Ayurved College, Patanjali Chikitsalaya, Yog Gram, Go-Shala, Patanjali Herbal Botanical Garden, Organic Agriculture Farm, Patanjali Food And Herbal Park Ltd. Then recently his Patanjali Yog Peeth has acquired a Scottish Island for about £2 million to set up a wellness retreat. The Little Cumbrae Island, off the fishing town of Largs in Scotland.

While he is protesting against the black money the source of his own wealth is very much questionable. After sitting upon unreliable wealth, he is now trying to jump into politics. He should remember he is not Anna Hazare, not even close to him when humanity is in question.

For the Government in Delhi, I don’t know why they want to negotiate a person like Ramdev and why in the earth they are not trying to get back the black money that stash in Swiss and other Banks, unimaginable amount of $1745 bn lying in other country when we lacks fund for development.

!!!Move over other ‘Quit’ movement, let us start ‘Quit the modern Swami’ movement !!!
