Letter to the political parties on Black money,Corruption and Change inthe existing system
EVERLASTING INSIGHT
Corruption and Black money have become the burning issues in India. Thereis an opportunity to bring-in clean politics by changing system after theassembly elections in five states. In the interest of the nation and people,venerable Swamiji has asked the political parties of their opinion onBlack-money, corruption and change in the system. We are publishingSwamiji's letter to the parties and their opinion. - Editor
February 2012&YOG SANDESH&03
had written a letter to the Prime minister before the winter session of the parliament on
Black-money, Corruption and change in the system. But unfortunately central government has not
taken any action so far in this respect. In the interest of the nation, we seek your opinion on these most
serious issues.There is only one solution to all the problems like rising inflation, poverty, illiteracy,
unemployment and social disparity - bringing-in lakh and crore of rupees - the black money - back to the
country, and by eradicating corruption and establishing uniform, unprejudiced justified system. We want to
put across your opinion on these three issues to the people before the election in the five states. Because,
having known your party's opinion on these most important issues, people would exercise their voting right.
We are attaching herewith a letter to find out your party's opinion on these important issues. We believe you
would fill it up and send it back.
In the interest of the nation, we wait for your positive response. We would wait for your opinion for a week
and if you do not respond by then, we would be forced to assume that your party is not serious about these
issues and your opinions on them are negative. Expecting a positive response - your's Swami Ramdev.
1. In the interest of the nation, our party agrees to declare the black money, stashed away in foreign
countries as a 'National Asset'. If the Central government brings-in any legislation on this, our party
would support it.
2. The people affiliated with our party are ready to declare their asset themselves, their families' and ofany institution they are associated with. They would declare their assets within specified days.
3. If the central government files an FIR against people with out any discrimination against their party
affiliation for the purpose of finding out the black money and illegal assets, our party agrees with such
a move.
4. Central government, so far has collected 36,000 responses, details of 9,900 foreign transactions and
information on the foreign accounts of at least 3,000 people. Our party is in favour of making these
names public and bringing back this money in the country by investigating and taking stringent legal
action on these people.
5. The biggest sources of black money in the country are illegal mining, real estate, alcohol industry,
black marketing and politics. There is some black money in other areas as well, but money in the
above-mentioned areas is hurting the country most. Illegal mining is causing a huge loss of mining
resources to the country. Similarly, money in addiction-related industry is causing a lot of stress in the
country. Black marketing is causing the inflation to rise. And the abuse of money involved in politics
is hazarding the country's security, freedom, democracy and development. We can not save this country
with out demolishing the black economy. In order to destroy internal economy of black money, ourparty is in favour of a positive and qualitative change in the governance, economic policies and
taxation.
6. Together with black money, main issues of corruption and systemic changes like National Commission
on farmer's income, equal education system in all regional languages, equal medical system, electoral
changes, national management policy and Swadeshi system and on other such issues, our party agrees.
7. The country should know full truth about the people responsible for the extortion of the country and
corrupt people should be boycotted socially and politically. So that, honest people are valued and
dishonest ones are brought out in the open. Politics should be cleaned and truth should be established
in political system. Our party agrees with these ideals and principles and our legislators and
parliamentarians would not let corruption thrive in their constituencies.

India has incurred a debt of
about 40,00,000 crore rupees
from domestic and foreign
sources. To pay interest on this, India
has to shell out 3,50,000 crore rupees.
And every Indian is under a debt of
33,000 rupees. For all these reasons,
the last result is a huge deficit in
financing the development of the
country.
India has entered into some
international agreements with World
Trade Organisation, IMF and World
Bank. Under these agreements thecountry can not throw these
companies out of the country. Due to
the weak political will of the Indian
government, extortion by foreign
companies is still a big problem. So,
throwing out foreign companies
depends on the willingness and
determination of Indians only. The
way Indians had to throw out East
India Company, likewise these
companies have to be thrown out. The
only way to banish these companies
and save the country from extortion is
by boycotting and non-cooperation.
India's great freedom fightersBalgangadhar Tilak, Lala Lajpat Rai,
Bipin Chandra Pal, Mahatama
Gandhi, Bhagat Singh, Ram Prasad
Bismil, Chandra Shekher Azad,
Subhash Chandra Bose, Ashfaq Ullah
and others threw out East India
Company. The English empire, which
ruled over 70 countries, was
demolished forever by these freedom
fighters. By adopting the same
weapon of boycott, we can throw out
these companies which are extorting
money from India.
Come! Let all Indians vow to boycott
all the goods manufactured by foreign
companies. This is the way to save
India's money and economic assets.
There are many commodities which
we use daily which can be boycotted.
Swadeshi substitutes of these products
of foreign companies are easily
available in the market. It is our
national duty to use swadeshi
products. Since India's independence,
11 five-year plans have been
implemented. Under all these plans,
emphasis had been laid on eradication
of poverty and hunger, yet the
situation did not improve. Every five-
year plan costs the country about
100,000 crore rupees. To overcome
the poverty and misery of rural
families, efforts have to be made on
several fronts. It is not possible at the
level of government only. Despite 64
years of such efforts the result are all
there for us to see. Under the 'Vision
2015' of ministry of industry, the
mission is to make India the centre of
food production in the world; to grow
food processing industry three fold;
processing level to be raised to 35
percent from 20 percent and to raise
the India's contribution in trade to 3
percent from 1.5 percent.
Since the awareness is growing
among developed countries, market
for organic foods, according to one
estimate, is 5 billion dollars.
Productivity of Indian soil is
sufficient to supply such a big market.
Besides this, in India only, there could
be a market of 1 billion dollars of
organic products. If we accept this
challenge and start working

India political, economicand social influence of
foreign companies is rising.Foreign companies are gettingall the incentives, since thepolicies of liberalisation andglobalization adopted in 1991. InIndia thousands of foreigncompanies are siphoning offmoney and country's assets.Every year 2,32,000 crore rupeeshave been taken out directly andanother 7,50,000 crore rupeesindirectly. This is the reason thatIndian economy is facing cash
crunch. To make up for thisdeficit, our government isborrowing from domestic andforeign markets.

could prosper, becomes healthy
and bring welfare to the people.
Food is the essence of our lives. If
we get nutritious food, we would
never fall sick. Earlier, our
forefathers used to have mixed
grains in their food. In Patanjali
Food Park, farmers will get full
value of the crops produced from
water-deficient soil and non-
irrigated land. And hundreds of
tones of herbs like Amla andAloe-vera is being processed.
With this processing, poor people
in villages will get healthy. With
this improvement in health and
prosperity, there will be a
revolution in the fields of
agriculture. And this revolution
will bring self-reliance, self-
respect and prosperity to the
agriculture laborers estimated to
count about 70 crore.
Patanjali Food Park is a footstep
of Venerable Swami Ramdevji in
the direction of Agricultural
revolution from Yoga revolution.This herbal park would grant
farmers economic freedom and
also play a vital role in making
India self-reliant through
Swadeshi movement. Patanjali
Herbal Food Park would prove to
be a milestone in the Swadeshi
movement.
accordingly, then this goal is not
difficult to achieve. For this to
achieve farmers have to be trained
and have to be made aware.
Productivity has to be raised and
appropriate price has to be assured
to them. The goal of Patanjali
Food and Herbal Park is to ensure
that agriculture is not expensive in
the country; farmers are notforced to commit suicide and
everybody's problems get
resolved.
In the name of green revolution,
the country is being duped. The
way diversity of our traditional
agriculture is destroyed by
promoting crops like fruits, wheat
and rice; we have to bring back
that tradition of that diversity and
people have to be made aware of
their consumption. So that farmers
get appropriate value for money
for crops produced in water-
deficient soil. And our citizens, byconsuming healthy and nutritious
food, would be healthy and free
from diseases.
We have to adopt 'Zero Budget
Agriculture' to promote
agricultural prosperity. Zero
Budget Agriculture involves
getting pure food by cutting cost
and raising profitability of
farmers. Patanjali Food & Herbal
Park is promoting organic
agriculture. So that the country

Power centers
or chakras inthe body
Agya Chakra(Medually Plexus Visa-a-vis Nervous system)
February 2012&YOG SANDESH&07
Chakra is located just insidethe center of the two
eyebrows. Practicing Kapalbhati,Anulom-Vilom and Nadi-ShodhanPranayama gives peace to our mindand soul which makes ourautonomic and voluntary nervoussystem peaceful, healthy andbalanced. The whole NARDI Tantrais connected to this Agya tantra.When Agyat Tantra is stimulated, thewhole NARDI SANSTHATNbecomes very strong and healthy.Ida, Pingla and Sushumna originatefrom Muladhar Chakra separatelyand end by merging together at thispoint. This is the reason why AgyaChakra-centre is also called Triveni.In the B-part of the given diagram,two small spherical points are
shown. The upward going light onthe forehead is the place ofSushumna. As said inGyanasankalini Tantra-
Ida Bhagrathi,Ganga Pingla Yamuna Nadi.Tayormadhayagta nadisushumnakhya saraswati.Triveni-Sangamo yatratirthrajah sa uchyate.Tatra snanam prakurvitsarvapapaih pramuchyate.
Ida is like Ganga river, Pingla is likeYamuna and the third one- Sushumna-
which flows between the two has beencompared with the Saraswati river. Theplace where the three merge together iscalled Tirthraj (the Sangam). Sangam is the
place where people throng to take a holy dipto get salvation in their life. Actually thisTriveni or Samgam lies within us. It is anerroneous believe that one can get salvation
by taking dip in the Sangam which existsoutside us. Had it been so, anybody guilty ofkilling a Brahmin, Guru and his or her
brother would have got salvation by taking adip in the Sangam outside us. Paap meanscrime aimed to harm others. This is thereason why gets punished for committing
This
sins. If one involves himself inphilanthropic works even aftercommitting sins, even then he or she will
have to suffer for the sins while at thesame time will be rewarded for the worksdone for the welfare of others.
Avashyameva Bhoktavayam kritamkarm shubhashubham.If a person with purity of his heart andsoul takes a holy dip either in Ganga orin Samgam and takes a pledge that hewont involve himself in ill-practicesever in life, only the he will be able tosave himself from committing sins infuture. But one cant get salvation for thesins which have already bee committed.This is the matter of fact about theTriveni which exists outside us. But ifone takes the dips in the Triveni lying in
the body which is located at AgyaChakra to concentrate on almighty bythe means of yoga and Pranayama, hewill naturally never think of committingany kind of crime or sin in the life. Hewill never be punished, as no sin will becommitted by him. Therefore, ifsomeone wants to get rid of sins, preventourselves from committing sins in thelife, we should chant Omkar and practiceyoga and Pranayama every day.

Every person in life wants to
succeed in life. Getting into a
rat-race to succeed by getting
angry and becoming emotionally
unbalanced and at the cost his or her
health is not appropriate. Success
demands from people to be peaceful,
to have a healthy body and balanced
emotions. In order to succeed in life, a
few things are essential
Setting a goal:Setting a goal is important to attain
success. Every person has his or her
own goal. The question arises that if
living a life is completion of life then
why to set a goal? Anger, pride,
jealousy and other human traits are a
hindrance to the development of an
individual. One can not focus in one
direction without setting a goal. So,
setting the goal is essential.
1] Goal should be clear, peaceful and
productive.2] Set the goal based on your
interests.
3] Do not change the goal frequently.
4] Your thoughts, efforts and
behaviour should be compatible
with the goal.
5] Patience, dedication and zeal are
essential.
6] Pride, competition and impatience
are detrimental to achieving the
goal.
Management of TimeEvery moment of life is precious.
Time is never returned. So, work,
which is not performed in time, can
not be performed later. Understand theseriousness and value of time. Ask the
importance of a year to a student who
failed. Or ask the value of a day to a
daily wager.
Formulae for TimeManagementDecide after a lot of understanding
and thought. And don't delay the
implementation.
n Make a list of important tasks.
n Prioritize your tasks.
n Don't do two things at a time.n Apply full efforts into it.
n Set a deadline for each task.
Self-assessmentSuccess is important in life and so is
self-assessment. Self-assessment is
the mirror to objectively observe your
merits and weaknesses. Self-
assessment is the way out of any
problem.
Self-disciplineSelf-discipline is the backbone of
success. In order to succeed, discipline
on sleeping and waking up on time,taking food, working, speaking and
controlling your traits are essential.
Without discipline, success would be
elusive on personal, social,
commercial and educational front.
One, who follows these formulae in
life, success would follow him.
Successful men develop self-
confidence, self-satisfaction and self-
respect. So everybody will have to
work continuously to succeed.

lower stature by birth as well.In the Indian system, caste isnot established on the basis of
birth but by Karma. Karmamakes a man great. A mancould reach the top of success
by continuous struggle,patience, hard work andsurrendering oneself to his orher duties and responsibilities.Truth and Karma aretruthfulness only. Success isunbroken flow of Karma.

himself beyond all this duality, one whoexperiences that everywhere Brahman is
prevalent and who gets himself intoobstinance, whose sins are burned to ashesand who dedicates his life for the welfareof other beings, he only gets ultimateBrahman or supreme salvation.

Yatendriya mano buddhirmunirmokshaparayanahVigateccha bhaya krodho yahsada mukta eva sah. II 28 II[27-28]One who keeps himself aloof from the
worldly things (the objects which arerecognized by the senses), and sets hisvision between the place of two eyebrows and unite his prana with apana andbreathe, he would stable his senses, mindand consciousness. Whose fear, desireand anger are vanished, who always
experiences the God Almighty and hisdivine form, is an eternal mukta (freedpersonality) person. Thus both of thoseslokas described the state which is aptfor Sanyasa, the renounciation. Even ifKarma yogi (who believes in doing toget solvation), can attain Moksha(Salvation) through this path. Becauseboth the paths lead to the same goal.

Bhokta, the payee, of the offerings ofsacrifice and penance, the absolute lord ofthe three worlds, bosom companion of allbeings, he only gets peace. In this chapterit is emphasized that karma sanyasa(renounciation of performing acts) does notadvocate to shun your duty. It alwaysadvises to do your duty with utmostsincerity, with a detached feeling towards
the end result and with a sense of non-doership or of a sanyasi (one who does notseek any retribution). While analyzing thisnuiance, sloka 27 is advocating the waysfor the stebilisation of mind.

Butthe one thing which isultimately overlooked by thescientists is that the scientistshave failed to trace the actualreason for such diseases whichhas resulted into the problemremaining the same. If todayshuman race wants to have a
happy and peaceful life and alsowant to ensure a better futurefor the future generations, theywill have to eradicate theinternal cause of such diseases.
Now the question rises thatwhat is the real cause of the

by external factorsmicroorganisms, contaminatedfood etc. But in reality, it cansaid to be a secondary reason.These factors can beresponsible for enhancing theseverity of the diseases, buttheir root causes lie somewhere

else. Actually, our pervertedthoughts and ill-demeanour are
in the root of the diseases. If webegin to care to bring purity inour behaviour and mentality, wecan keep ourselves free fromsuch deadly diseases. Buttodays so called modern peoplewho largely rely on machineryrather than ethos, are prone toreject such ideas. Such peopledont believe in such thingswhich cant be provedscientifically. But no one candeny the fact that our saints inancient times were veryintelligent people and had avery strong memory power andthey had a great knowledge ofthe whole anatomy of human
body and functions of variousorgans. Even after such a greatadvancement of modernscience, they have failed toattain that level of knowledgewhich our saints had. Eventoday, it has been seen thatwhen all the doctors becomehelpless in curing a disease, the
patients prefer to visit a Vaidyaor Hakeem who eventually
succeed in curing the patients.The reason behind such thingsis that, our Vaidyas andHakeems work with purity ofheart and soul when it comesfor the treatment of a patient.Basically root causes ofdiseases lie in our mind andsoul and if the purity is attainedat this level, you will always be
protected from diseases. Weshould pursue the path of truth.We should avoid the path ofenvy, hatred and greed. It has
been experienced in the society
that all those who haveaccumulated huge wealth bywrong means, are prone to becaught by dangerous and deadlydiseases which are difficult to
be treated. But those whomaintain the purity of mind,good character and are havingcompassion for needy peopleare healthy and prosperous.Their good health and
prosperity in life are
attributable to the purity of theirmind and soul.
Our great forefathers in ancienttimes had set some norms for ahealthy and prosperous life.They had firm belief that byallowing envy, greed and hatredto dominate our mind, our lifewill be nothing but like a hell.Such elements pollute our mindand soul which eventuallycause deadly diseases in us. Onthe other hand, when our heartand mind are full of purity andhonesty, we are always
protected form deadly diseases.In todays world, most of the
people are suffering fromdiseases and it is only becauseof evils like impurity of ourmind and spirit. But very few
people who have pursued thepath of compassion for others,purity of mind and soul arehealthy. It is age old adage thathealthy mind is prerequisite forhealthy body.
Allow purity to have a place inyour mind and keep yourself
away from impurity. Alwayskeep away from anger,subversive elements and hatredto enjoy a healthy and peaceful.

P
ranayama is the process in which
whole breathing system
participates actively.By practicing Pranayama, all the organs
that are related to breathing system,
would become functionary. Nose, mouth,
Pharynx, Trachea, Bronchi, lung and
thorax are the limbs which carry out the
functions in breathing system. Breathing
system that is controlled by Pranayama
purifies all these limbs and they get
enough oxygen and supply it through out
the body which is necessary for all living
beings. If these organs do not conduct
their functions properly, that may cause
many diseases. Allergic and Chronic
Rhinitis, Sinusitis, Bronchitis, Laryngitis,
Bronchial Asthma, Tuberculosis likediseases attack breathing system.
Normally a healthy person may breathe
15-18 times per minute. Each and every
time a half letre of oxygen is received
into the body and the same quantity of
air is expelled out. More than that, one

Forasmuch Nitrogen gas is the same
while breathing in and breathing out, we
have to change the percentage in oxygen
as it is 4 percentage while brething out.
And this process is called significant
change. This method of change is called
Oxygenation. The procedure of
Pranayama has no physical effort
(muscular exercise)is needed. Still it
enhances the Volume of Ventilation ten
times. When we do physical labor, more
oxygen is needed. But when we do
Pranayama, the ratio of oxygen can be
increased. That means the process of
blood purification is also done many
times. And each and every cell of our
body gets its vitality in the presence of
oxygen. After the completion of breathing
cycle, we get energy (ATP) and thus the
act helps in nourishment. Through the
procedure of Pranayama, we can prevent
the processes of Necrosis or
Degeneration. Pranayama is an absolute
antaxident. Through the process of
Pranayama we are able to letting out the
secretions of nasal cavity which create
hindrance in the breathing system

drawn into the body. And this quantity
can be extended upto three and half letres

USA, Britain, Canada, Australia and Italy.Gaddafi was such a wealthy ruler of a smalland impoverished nation which has a
population of just 65 lakhs.He was in power for over four decades. India,our nation is worlds fourth largest economythat means over 200 countries in the world are
behind us in terms of wealth. Only US, Chinaand Japan are ahead of us on this ground.Despite of such a rampant loot of our nationalresources by greedy leaders and officers, wehave such a strong foundation of our economy.The price of land property amounts to over Rs20 thousand lakh crores in India. No one canimagine the ill-gotten wealth accumulated bythe parties and leaders who have been in powerfor over 55 years in this country. The truth willcome to fore when these people will be thrownout of power.It is a bizarre situation that the people who havedone no good for the people and who get everytime elected to rule over the country only
because of their association with a reputedpolitical family. They are again shamelesslymaking appeals to the people to vote for them.They want the people to allow them to ruleover the country to serve their personal interestrather than serving for the interest of the peopleand the nation. Will we continue to vote forthem because they are responsible for hugecorruption of wealth amounting to Rs 400 lakhcrores. Do they deserve felicitation by beingvoted to power for not allowing the return of
black money which has been stashed in theforeign banks by those Indians who haveaccumulated huge ill-gotten property. Are they
to be awarded for not allowing a strong ant-graft law for the appointment of an effectiveLokpal institution. Do they deserve hounourfor not letting the black money to be declaredthe national wealth? Do they deserve hounourfor looting wealth of the nation by indulging ina string of scams starting from Bofors scam toCommonwealth scam and 2 G scam? In all
public rallies organized by such leaders forvote, people should slap such questions to their
politicians. It is your right and duty.
Now we wont allow these traitors to cheat usany more. It is high time for us to boycott suchelements socially and politically.
We will also have to boycott the foreignproducts besides these corrupt elements to saveour nation. We have to establish truedemocracy in place of the system of loot andcorruption. It is strange that these politicianscan get angry with us even after looting thewealth of the nation but we dont know whenwe will get angry with these corrupt politicians.We can get angry on ourselves to vent ourfrustration.

God has enriched every nation with full ofnatural resources. The countries where the
people are suffering due to poverty have been
impoverished due to system of corruption andblack money. The people in these countriessuffer due to the loot of wealth by a few peoplesitting in power. Similar things have happenedin Egypt, Tunisia and Libya. GDP of Libya isabout Rs 4 lakh crores but the wealthaccumulated by Coloney Gaddafi isapproximately abut Rs 10 lakh crores. Similaris the situation in India. The size of oureconomy is approximately around Rs 200 lakhcrores and there are so many Gaddafi type ofcorrupt leaders in India.These politicians have created a system ofcorruption by joining hands with corrupt
bureaucrats and all these people have jointlycollected black money amounting to Rs 400lakh crores. But this could be a tip of icebergand realty of this system of black money will
be known to us when such people will beultimately thrown out of power, albeit throughdemocratic means.
3. Is it really very difficultto recover the blackmoney ether stashed inthe country or abroad?
Economists across the world believe that thosewho have collected black money through illicitmeans happen to be very influential people andthey have a very strong hold over system ofgovernance. As long as they are in power it is
almost impossible to recover the black moneycollected by them. They are able to take theassistance of worlds renowned lawyers andchartered accountants who offer them the waysand means to save the ill-gotten collected bythese corrupt people.Moreover, there is a global system of stashingthe black money with the banks in the foreigncountries who are committed to protect it at anycost. There are some countries like US andBritain who are striving all efforts to get backthe black money stashed by their people in the
banks of there countries. But thesegovernments have also allowed a system inthese countries to stash the black moneycollected by the citizens of other countries. The
black money collected by a few corrupt people
in our country is actually invested in variousfields like- Mutual Funds, real estates, TrustCompanies.The rules made by our corrupt politicians areineffective to unearth the huge some of moneywhich has been collected by various ill means.The only way to unearth the reality of thesystem of black money is to throw out thesecorrupt leaders from power, albeit, the methodhas to be democratic. People of Libya deposedGaddafi from power by violent means becausethere was no democracy in that country.In nutshell, we have to make a new regime ofgovernance in which those people will lead the
who have clean image. We will elect thosecandidates as our representatives for the stateassemblies who honest. We will have to ensuredefeat of the leaders in this election who have
brutally looted the wealth of our nation.Voting in favour of corrupt elements will belike treachery to our mother land. It is equallyimportant for all the voters to cast their votes.
Not doing so will be like insult of our freedomfighters who sacrificed their life forestablishing democracy in the country.It is our appeal to all the social and religiousorganizations, students of the schools andcolleges and all the youths who aresuffering due to unemployment and povertywhich has been caused due to the system ofcorruption. Let us come forward and join handsto begin a struggle to make our system clean
and also to ensure justice to the people of thiscountry.
1. Let us have a discussionover the issue of blackmoney.
There is a global system of black money whichamounts to about USD 63 trillion. The moneyis actually collected through wrong and illegalmeans like smuggling, tax evasion andcorruption. Normally it is of two types. One isthat which has been collected by the means oftax evasion like- evading the income tax, exciseduty, evasion of duty on imported and exportedgoods. The money collected in the form of
taxes is actually spent for the welfare of thepeople of the respective countries. Tax evasionis a bit less dangerous thing and goodgovernance and reforms in the economic
policies are required to curb this ill practice.But the another form of black money is moredangerous. Over 120 crore people of India payRs 12 lakh crore every year to the governmentin the form of various kinds of taxes which hasto be spent on the development of the nationand welfare of the people.This money is pocketed by the middle men likecorrupt politicians, bureaucrats and greedytraders. This is the real form of black money.Most of the people join politics to join this
particular system of loot and corruption. Whendishonest people are voted to power, they
bungle the money which should have beenspent on the development of the country.
2 The primary cause ofpoverty, unemploymentand hunger across theworld, including India, isbasically caused byvicious regime of blackmoney No country in theworld is basically poor.

IV. Election reformsV. National management policyVI. A true Indian system of governance
6.How the eradication ofsystem of black moneyand corruption and thechange in the systemare going to benefit thecountry
Every good thing will be possible if the above-mentioned three things are made possible. Ourcountry will have that much of money whichwill enable us to provide quality education and
best medical facilities to the ever citizen ofIndia. No one will be unemployed, unletteredand poor in the country. All will be leading a
standard quality of life.The value of our currency, Rupee, will be equalto that of Dollar and Pound. India will emergeas the world superpower. Today we are fourthlargest economy in the world. US, China andJapan are ahead of us. But tomorrow India willleave back in the race of economic growth. Wewont be dependent on GDP growth. We haveto check the loot of our resources and wealth ofthe nation which is being done in the name offoreign investment.
7. Where lies the highestamount of black money?In which sector? What
are its ill effects?Most part of black money has been invested inthe mining sector, real estate, drug trafficking,
black marketing and vicious practices in thepolitics. These activ ities are spoil ing oureconomy. Natural resources worth Rs lakhs ofcrores are being looted every year due to illegalmining. Similarly, the black money invested indrug trafficking is also destroying not only oureconomy but it is threatening the future of thenation. Role of black money for blackmarketing of the essential goods hasencouraged skyrocketing prices. Power of
black money in politics is posing seriousthreats to our political system and democracy.The safety of the country and well being of its
people cant be ensured until the system ofblack money continues to exist.
8.What is your role?You dont have to vote for the candidate of the
party which is responsible for the loot of thewealth of the nation. The power of your votingrights will curb the ill practices in ourdemocracy. When ever the organization iscarrying out a movement over these issues, youhave to ensure your participation. It is the
biggest responsibility of the every citizen tojoin the movement to curb corruption and lootof the wealth of the nation.
government who dont have any black money,who are honest people and are ready to workwith honesty. Such a new regime will have to
ensure the recovery of black money which hasbeen stashed by various methods. The newgovernment will also have to reassure the
people that the system of black money will beno more in existence. For example, USgovernment successfully brought back their
black money from Switzerland because no bigpolitical personality of US had stashed blackmoney in the foreign banks. And the blackmoney accumulated by the leaders of Tunisia,Libya and Egypt could be unearthed after thetyrant regimes in these countries were thrownout of power. Even US administrationuncovered the Rs 1.5 lakh crore of black moneyaccumulated by Libyan strongman Gaddafionly after he was thrown out of power. The truefact and figure of black money accumulated byour leaders will be uncovered only after thesecorrupt leaders will be thrown out of power.
4. What is the proper wayto recover the blackmoney?
I. Centre should immediately declare theblack money stashed in the foreign banksas the wealth of the nation.
II. All MPs, MLAs should declare their ownproperty and the wealth of their relatives inthe country and abroad.
III. A general purpose FIR will have to be filedagainst all the top politicians, top
bureaucrats and top entrepreneurs of India
under prevention of corruption andprevention of money laundering act andthen a detailed information will have to besought from the foreign governmentsregarding the wealth of these people inthose countries.
IV Under the provisions of politically exposedpersons, the government of India shouldseek information from foreigngovernments about the money collected bythose politicians, officers and entrepreneursof India who have been exposed for theirinvolvement in the acts of corruption.
V. The provision for beneficial ownershipdeclaration has to be put in placeimmediately.
VI. The black money collected by some peoplein India is being invested in various sectorsof our economy like mining, real estate,drug trafficking and misuse of money
power for political purposes. To curb suchpractices, a very strong and effective rulewill have to be made with farsightedness.
5. The main issues meantto change the system
I. Setting up of National Farmers IncomeCommission.
II. Equal education for all in Indian languages.III. Accessible and equal medical services for all.

bA clarion call bFor Assembly polls to be held in five states soon. A write-up based on the viewsof Yoga Rishi and pride of the nation, honorable Swami Ramdevji Maharaj.Call for all the nationalistic citizens of the nation.
Election is a national festival ofdemocracy. In ancient era, a kingwas born from stomach i.e.
dynasty rule but now leaders are electedby vo te. The present freedom and righ t tovote is because of the martyrdom of overmillions of freedom strugglers, who laidtheir life. Thus, not to go to polling boothand not exercising franchise is an insult tothese martyrs. If we do not vote and electeligible people, the very purpose ofloktantra (democracy) gets defeated and itbecomes `loottantra` . Over 400 lakh croremoney is illegally siphoned out to foreignnations and we face corruption at everystep. All candidates contesting electionare the representative of the people beforebe ing the representative of any poli ticaloutfit. Thus, we have constitutional andbasic r ight to know, what they th ink o n t hesubjects of national interest. The electedGovernments in the nation collect around12 lakh crore as tax on 32 heads in thename of development. Even a poor labor,artisan, farmer or a rickshaw-pullerpu rcha se soap , shampoo, toothpas te or
bi scui ts , af te r paying taxes. The poores t
of the poor people are also not spared andpay huge money as taxes. Election is theright time to demand suitable answer to it.
To know views of our publicrepresentatives on national issues likebl ac k mo ne y, co rr up ti on an d sy st emchange besides local issues, a publicdebate program is being arranged in whichcandidates from all the parties are invited.We are of the opinion that when MaharshiVashishtha, Vishwamitra, MaharshiSandipani, Acharya Chanakya, MaharshiDayanand, Swami Vivekanand, ShriArvind, Mahatma Gandhi and in ancientera Lord Shiva, Lord Rama andyogeshwar Lord Krishna intervenedpoli tically and hence, the nation is safe
today. Seeing pathetic and unlawfulcondition of the then rulers, Lord Ramaand Lord Krishna intervene politically andsaid `Paritranaya Sadhuna Vinashaya ChaDushkritam`. In same manner the politicalintervention of Swami Ramdevji and ShriShri Ravishankar raising voice againstcorruption is not only relevant butnecessary too.
Just think, despite being a monk, I amalso disposing of my duty for the nationbesides `yoga dharma` wi th to ta l pu ri ty,impartiality and honesty. Me and othersare struggling day and night to save thenation, state and our pride despite someopinions that why Swamiji, a `sanyasi` isintervening at the time of election. Butwhy they forget that to elect corruption-
free representative and to make peopleaware of it is the morale duty of everycitizen.
So please attend `jan-samwad`program to be he ld in your dist rict and askdirect questions to the candidates. Ask,what they think to declare black money asnational asset and bring back to thenation? What the candidates say to uprootcorruption and to provide education in allregional Indian language besides Englishand to ensure free and equal education andequal medical facility to all? What are thecandidate and his party's policy on givingactual cost of crop to the farmer than

scrap land acquisition law. What thecandidates opine on poll reforms, loot ofnatural resources like iron, coal, gas,pe tr ol , di am on d an d go ld by mu lt i-nationals and to establish `swadeshi`system in place? To ask such burningquestions we invite you in `jan-samwad`program. If our coun try ge ts back, Rs 400lakh crore concealed in foreign nations,corruption is uprooted and corruptpoli tica l system is replaced by correctpoli tica l system means democracy wouldprevail in true meaning and no person ofthe nation would be unemployed, poor orilliterate. Inflation would come down andthe nation would be in real terms, thebiggest economic and spir itua l power. Butthe dream would turn into reality only
when we would vote for honest,nationalistic and eligible candidates. Thepeople and the part ies, responsible to lootRs 400 lakh crore and bring down theglory of, once the most powerful nation,our beloved India shall not be spared now.Not a sing le of the culpri t shall reachVidhan Sabha. This is the rightopportunit y to strike. To vote in favor oftainted people is like treachery andcheating to the nation. Our country is ourmother. The people, who havedowngraded the prestige and reputation ofour motherland, who have stabbed in theheart of our beloved motherland shall notbe vo ted to power.
Dear brother and sisters, the publicagitations could only raise and highlight
issues but can not bring change to thefortune of the nation. The real power tobr ing remarkable changes lies wi th themembers of Assemblies and Parliament.Hence, no changes could be expected tillright people are sent there. With the helpof public agitations, we could bringpa rt ia l ch an ge an d bu t no t co mp le techange. If on polling day, we sit at ourhomes then the martyrdom and sacrificeof thousands of revolutionaries would gowaste. It would be perfidy, betrayal andtreachery with the nation. If you did notvote for better people in the available lot,then criminals could win for which, youwould be equally responsible. On June 4,a massive dharna held at Ramlila groundto highlight the demands of bringing back
black money stashed in foreign, up root ingcorruption, equal rights for education andmedical facilities to all, to provide actualproduc tion cost to farmers and to sc rapland acquisition cost.

It was one of the barbaric andcruel incidents in the history ofdemocratic nations. Sister Rajbala, whowas grievously injured in the lathicharge,ultimately breathed her last.

to defame Acharya Balkrishna, who did
relentless services to mankind and gaverelief to millions of people and spread thefragrance of Ayurveda in the world. EntireGovernment machinery was releasedbehind myse lf , honorable Anna Hazare,sister Kiran bedi and Arvind Kejriwal,who raised voice against corruption andblack money.

The Government hassigned weak treaties with 85 nations inconnection with black money.Furthermore, the Government is claimingthat the black money deposited in foreignbanks is merely 40 lakh crore and no t 400
lakh crore and of the specified amount, itis demanding Rs 24 lakh crore as tax.When me, Anna Hazareji, Shri ShriRavishankarji and Subramaniyam Swamijiraised voice against corruption anddemanded a strong lokpal bill, no effortwas left to defame all these persons.Annaji was even arrested and lodged injail along wi th muggers and hard-corecriminals. His associates were troubled.And now when time to draft Lokpal billhas come, a weak bill has beenformulated, the power of whoseappointment and termination lies with theruling party.

A movement to awaken
people to participate in voting Lets changethe system by casting vote
Voting is our fundamental,
constitutional and national duty.Voting for tainted candidates isnoting but a form of treachery to thenation. Dont let any of those people toget a place in any state assembly whoare responsible for the loot of Rs. 400lakh crores of this country. Actually it is
not our cast or religion which isresponsible for the poverty of the nationand its people. It is corruption and thesystem of black money, which areresponsible for our poverty and we arenot able to emerge as a globalsuperpower on the world map. Ourcorrupt politicians, officers and
businessmen have stashed black moneyor ill-gotten money in the foreign
banks. If this money is brought back inIndia, it will solve definitely solve ourmajor problems like poverty,unemployment and illiteracy.In every election rally and publicmeetings during campaigns forassembly elections, we should put upfollowing question to the parties andthe candidates we are seeking votes:1. Rs. 400 lakh crores have been
stashed in the foreign banks asblack money. Why dont you tostrive to declare this money asnational property?
2. Why dont you frame strong andeffective laws to curb the acts ofcorruption?
3. Why do you allow the exploitationof labourers and farmers by calling
them unskilled workers?4. Why are you bent on allowing FDI
in retail which is bound to spoil theinterests of small traders in thecountry?
Note:A. Only central government is able to
bring back the wealth of the nationwhich is stashed in the foreign
banks in the form of black money.Bet center is ignorant about its duty.People of this country want to knowif the black money stashed in theforeign banks belong to the peoplewho are in power in the center.
B. Why the center is trying to shieldthose who have accumulated huge
sum of ill-gotten money in the formof black money and crush those
people who at the same time whoare raising their voice against thesystem of black money.
Just think! Will you vote for theparties and candidates who areresponsible for this miserablecondition of our people and country?
To ensure the well being of yourselfand the development of yourassembly constituency and that ofyour nation, just strive to get the hugesum of black money declared as thewealth of the nation. You must comeout of your home on polling day to

15. No alcohol
When there is a hundred
percent blockage, the
patient begins to perspire,
feel severe pain and some of the
muscles of his heart become inactive,
which could cause permanent
damage. Heart attack causes
blockage in supply of blood and
oxygen to heart leading to the death
of the patient.
The intensity of heart attack is
directly concerned to the fact that
how much part of heart is affected. Ifonly 5 to 10 percent part of the heart
is affected, then the intensity of attack
is very low, but when 30 to 40
percent parts are affected then the
intensity is very severe and if
immediate aid is not provided to the
victim, then the death is sure. Heart
attack is caused due to fat-rich diet,
excessive and sudden anger, and
excess of grief or tension. Heart
attack could be possible during
angiography and Angioplasty when
the balloon is inflated. Actually the
inflated balloon blacks the coronary
artery which carries blood to the heartleading to the destruction of internal
surface. There is only way to prevent
heart blockage- dont let the blockage
to occur. If the blockage is checked,
no heart attack will happen ever in
life. Adhering to a proper life style
will help prevent the heart attack.
Focus on following things to prevent
the possibility of heart attack
1. Cholesterol- 130 to 136.
2. Triglyceride- 60 t0 180

pollution. and effects of the weather.

The evolution of the ancientscripture whichenlightened the whole
world on the subject of Karma,was the result of unconditionalfriendship. Saying so is noexaggeration.Srimadbhagwadgeeta was evolvedin the battleground ofMahabharata when the Arjun wasin illusion with regard to hisduties. Then his greatest friendlord Krishna enlightened him andhelped him to get rid of hisillusion. It was the assistance of anaide like lord Krishna whichhelped all the Pandavas includingArjuna to emerge victorious inMahabharata war.This instance proves the worth ofa true friendship. A true friend isalways ready to help us in adversecircumstances. There are manykind of relationship in which weare attached with others and everyrelationship has its ownimportance. It normally happensthat our behaviour is restrained inalmost all the relationship. But infriendship, we freely speak ourmind. Friendship happens to bethe worlds unique and veryspecial relationship. It is difficultto explain the importance andsignificance of friendship inwords. The depth and breadth of
is dynamic. True friendship is the most
integral part of life, which is verynecessary to live with happiness. Unconditionalfriendship means a relationship in which the
people involved are no way concerned about theirprofit or loss. True friendship could be helpful inbailing you out of the troubles in life.
Life
the feeling of joy in thisrelationship cant be expressed inwords. This is the reason, why nodefinite definition of this
relationship could be evolved sofar. When there is a truefriendship, then the status of thepeople involved in it ismeaningless. Here I would like tocite the example of Krishna-Sudama friendship. In childhood,when the both of them werestudying, Sudama had eaten theChana-Chabana (baked gram andrice), which was meant forKrishna. But after many years,when Sudama was reeling under

extreme poverty, he visited toKrishnas place. When informed
about Sudamas visit, Sri Krishnarushed to see his friend andhugged him. Krishna promised hisreassured his friend that hishardship was over from now.Krishnas dedication for his friendis exemplary. Actually the truefriendship has nothing to do withfinancial status. It is basicallybased on purity of heart and mind.Friendship enables us to enjoy thegreatest feeling which makes usfree from all kind of agony anddistress. Friendship is a kind ofbook of which all the letters areprecious. A true friend is helpful in
bailing us out of our troubles andplays a seminal role in ourprogress in life. A true friendshipbased on purity of mind and purityof deeds is very useful for theentire humanity. The strong andexemplary bonding of relationshipbetween Yoga guru SwamiRamdevji and AcharyaBalkrishnaji is worth mentioningin this context. The strong bondingbetween the two has greatlyserved the entire humanity by themeans of yoga and Ayruveda.Unfortunately the governmentmachinery has tried a lot to harass
the two to separate them, but it isthe strength of the relationshipwhich foiled all such plots.Despite all odd circumstances, thetwo friends are standing togetherholding their hands tightly to servethe humanity. The relationshipbetween Swami Ramdevji andAcharya Balkrishnaji is anexample of true friendship. A truefriend is one who is always readyto stand by his partner in alldifficulties and encourages him tokeep moving ahead on the pathof prosperity. Friend in need isthe friend indeed is a famous
adage. This relation is beyond alldoubts. If any one of the twopartners are skeptical about other,it is the beginning of the end ofthe relationship. Trust is mostimportant factor, which makes thebonding in the relationshipstronger. Truth, honesty, mutualunderstanding, strong trust,transparency and dedication arethe primary conditions fordeveloping a true friendship.Friendship provides us enough

space where we are able to speakwithout any kind of hesitation.
True friendship never goes in vain.A true friend plays a vital role inour prosperity. True friendshipbears the qualities of an expert ofmedicines, who is supposed tohave all the solutions of aproblem. This relationship alsoserves us like the most caringmother does for her child.Chaitanya Mahaprabhu andRaghunath Pandit were bestfriends. Both had written books.But for the happiness of his friendand to allow Raghunaths book toearn wider fame, ChaitanyaMahaprabu drowned the text of
his own book in the water, thoughit was a best creation. A true friendis like a treasure that will continueto be useful for the whole life. Butit is very difficult to find a truefriend in todays world. But it isalso a fact that good and badpeople lived in every generation.When entering in a friendlyrelationship with anybody, oneshould be very cautious. Now thequestion is, how to get a truefriend. The simplest answer is- theone is helpful in your need is yourfriend indeed. Such people arecomparatively very few in the
society. But once you find a truefriend, just continue therelationship in every situation forwhole life. When you have gottrue friends, you are brimmingwith self-confidence. Highconfidence level is very importantfor the success in life. True friendsare like jewels, always take care ofthem.

became independent and it is mostunfortunate that even after such a longtime, we have nothing of our own.
National language, constitution,education system, there is nothing whichcould be said as Indian. Everything has
been borrowed. I think that they werebetter and if yes, we should not hesitateto admit it. We believe `vishdapiamritam grahnam` means if we getambrosia from poison, we shall accept it.Vedas also suggest `Aa no bhadra kavtoyantu Vishwatah` (Yajurwada 25.14). Ifit is not eligible and still we are carryingit could have two reasons. First, we donot have inkling of our capability andsecond, we are deliberately doing it. Inmy opinion, second option does notapply. And now if we don't have anyknowledge of our self, it is our duty tolearn more. India has glorious historyand traditions. Scientific language likeSanskrit belongs to us, which hasimmense caliber to bring improvement
in every sector but it has not beenexploited. We have natural resources,perhaps best in the world but lyingunexploited. There is no parallel to the`varna system` and `ashram system` tokeep society well arranged. In brief wecan say that there is clearly defined workfor everyone in the system for thesociety. Follow `Kurvetraveh KarmaniJijiveshchtaha sama (Yajurveda 40.2).According to it work better than othersto establish supremacy, which alsomeans a healthy competition, as the

God Veda has asked to carrystudent in womb means the acharya shall
behave equally with all his disciples nomatter he come from elite, influentialfamily or a poor class as a mother doeswith an unborn baby in her womb. Theexpectant mother does not thought aboutthe look of the unborn baby but showersequal affection and love towards it.Likewise, a teacher shall shower equalaffection to his students and developspiritually, mentally, bodily and
physically so that he could achieve
completeness and work effectively in thesociety. To follow the directives of Vedais not a difficult task and everyonewould admit that nothing could be betterthan carving out a good human being outof a raw student. The central and stateGovernments shall come forward andtake initiative.
Suggestions forGovernment and socialorganizationsIt has been over six decades, when India

of honesty, sacrifice may cast the students into an excellentgroup. Acharya should be knowledgeable, and well

This shall happen in the field ofeducation. The education should not be
sold in exchange of money. And thesame message has been conveyed bySuper 30 to those, commercializingeducation. Now to make it a system, theGovernment shall come forward andexecute a few of the suggestions for
prosperous and organized society.First-of-all if the Government and othersocial organizations want welfare of thesociety, want to inspire poorest of the
poor to educate and live respectable life,want to abolish reservation system andwant to get rid of mental and physical
pollution prevailing in the society, theyshall immediately adopt ashram system.It is but natural that excellent creation is
possible only with excellent craftsman.If you want to be among the best, youwould have to look for the best guide.There should not be any place ofreservation in the education system. Alltalent is being drained out in other fieldsand at primary level especially, non-serious teachers are put on duty.Furthermore, they are given electionwork, census and other Governmentduties. First, we would have to selectdedicated and committed eligibleteachers. In the field of education also,
teachers should be selected as done inArmy, Navy and Air Force. Theparticipants clear many hurdles and onlybest of the talent is being churned out.Such selection process would ensure bestavailable talent in the field of teachingand they could give best of theircontribution in the creation of a goodhuman being.These teachers shall be equipped withdifferent qualities and have motherlyaffection, good character, duty boundwith full commitment towards duty.They shall be relived of all other worksof the society and the nation and asked
to work round-the-clock for thebetterment of the children. They shall beprovided adequate facilities and thesociety have complete trust and faith inthem. In ancient time, monks relieved ofall family duties were given theresponsibility of teaching. The educationwas free of cost. If now, the same systemis being developed, children would getlove, affection and experiences of old
people besides education and on theother hand, old people would getsupporting hands.
`varna` system describes. There areequal opportunities for everyone and onewho reaches the level according to hisintelligence becomes his category or`varna`. Means effort and labor is
primary in the system. One who does notwork is dacoit and it is the responsibilityof the king to bring him on right pathafter educating him or giving
punishment. The education system aimsat no one becoming dacoit or cheats andgets dues with efforts. The basics of sucheducation lie in the `ashram` system.Celibate is a noun used for theadolescent child, joining gurukul wherehe is shaped into a good personality.The disciple shapes in the manner hisguru does.
