Chief minister Trivendra Singh Rawat inaugurated Patanjali Mega Store and Ayurved Bhawan in Patanjali Yog Peeth premises here on Tuesday and said that an internal churning is now going on in India, which is a period of transformation, and the wisdom of Yoga and Ayurveda that have evolved in the ancient land over millennia under the guidance of the seers would soon flood the nook and the corner of the world. “We expect that much more than Yoga and Ayurveda would emanate from the peeth founded by Yoga Guru Baba Ramdev and Acharya Bal Krishna,” he said.
Baba Ramdev said that the key to the success of the Peeth they are running is the support of over 100 crore Indians. “We are going from strength to strength despite the opposition from some staunch votaries of the multi-national companies thanks to the whole-hearted support we are receiving from the width and breadth of the country,” he said. The event also marked Ullas-2018, annual festival of the University of Patanjali.
Baba Ramdev announced that in a space of ten years, he would gift the country with 50 sannyasins to be trained under him. “They would usher in ‘Vaidik Samrajya’ (Vedas-inspired world). In full possession of the soul power attained through sadhana, they would work on the world as Karma Yogis to emancipate the motherland from the cankers of corruption and the like. They would espouse Swadeshi and inspire the people to fall back on their inner reservoirs and attain complete self-reliance,” he said.
Invoking Swami Vivekananda and Rishi Aurobindo, Baba Ramdev said that he needed just 100 completely dedicatedRs persons like Nachiketa who could build the country anew. “We are sharing the same luminous dream of a resurgent India once dreamt by Vivekananda and Aurobindo,” he said.
He further said that ten sannyasins would be initiated into the mission on the auspicious occasion of Ramnavmi who would be the successors of the mission embodied by Patanjali.
While the minister of state for higher education Dhan Singh Rawat said that a discourse would soon be hosted in the state whose focus would be on blending the ancient wisdom encased in the land with the modern knowledge the world is being enriched with in course of the evolution of life the state AYUSH minister Harak Singh Rawat said that the state government would build an Ayurved Research Centre near Kotdawar where Rishi Charak composed Acharya Samhita.
