about transforming or about reviving this maha khun as a knowledge base as a place and a time that people large number of people will seek as a source of inspiration healing and transformation which is what it has been for thousands of years maybe in the last five six or ten decades in a century it could have to some extent lost its relevance and its significance simply because well the nation has not been in our own hands so reviving this what this means why is this what is so significant about taking a bath once in 12 years it's not about that this comes from our fundamental dimension of yoga which is referred to as Bhuta shuddhi which means to cleanse the five elements in our system everything in the universe this body this planet the solar system the universe and the cosmos everything is just a play of five elements the entire universe is just a misty four five elements not five million just five this shows the brilliance behind creation the trillions and trillions of forms that life has taken all this only with five ingredients so the yogic system the fundamental form of yoga is Bhuta shuddhi where it is understood that if you gain some mastery over these five elements your health well-being prosperity access to the universe all these dimensions are taken care of if only you take charge of these fundamental ingredients which make you who you are right now and make which makes everything what it is right now this body the elemental composition of this body is such that 72% of this body is water 12% is Earth 6% is air 4% is fire the remaining is Akash for one to live well here water plays the most important role because 72% of this body is water 72% of the planet is water so the comb or the science of making use of the confluence of rivers at certain latitudes came not because of belief not because of some blind faith this came because of keen observation of how life and the different forces around us function and how we can write that how we can make use of that the modern science is beginning to open its eyes to this that between equator that is the zero degrees latitude 233 degrees latitude the centrifugal force that the planet generates because of its spin largely works in a vertical manner as you go further north it becomes tangential but here it works in a vertical manner 11 degrees centigrade is one place where it is perfectly vertical so after much search within myself we establish the Isha yoga center at 11 degrees latitude because if one is doing sudden are the maximum benefit it happens here because the Earth's centrifugal force is pushing everything upward in a vertical manner rather than in a tangential manner so from 0 to 33 degrees this was known as the sacred land on the planet because spiritual sadhana found at most results or maximum results happened in this region for whatever sadhana that an individual person does so within this latitude we identified many spots where at different times of the year and different times of the solar year which lasts for twelve and a quarter years there are the forces are working in a certain way and those places were identified as places to be on that particular day or that particular period wherever two water bodies are meeting with a certain force it creates a certain a churning of water this body being over seventy-two percent water being there at that particular time when it is in a particular nakshatra in the solar system in the solar cycle the maximum benefit happens to the body in the ancient times everybody understood that this mandala of 48 days if you stay at the comb and every day you're in that water with the appropriate sadhana attached to it you could transform your physical body your psychological framework your energy framework and above all find enormous spiritual growth within you within a span of one mandala which is 48 days but today slowly it has become more just a quick visit a half a day with it where you take a simple one dip and you're out well maybe in today's world we can't get all of you for 48 days at the Combe but I was talking to the Chief Minister and said it's important that we set at least 40 days of sadhana for everybody wherever they may be every day 10 to 12 minutes of sadhana in their own home for 40 days then come and take a dip this will make a huge difference because the importance of it is at a certain place if a certain volume of energy is happening do you have the ability to receive it do you have the ability to perceive it if you cannot perceive no matter where you are everything will go waste so the whole science of why the come why are certain latitudes why where the confluence of water bodies are happening there's an elaborate science about it I don't want to go into the entire process now but essentially this is what it is because if the water within you does not respond to the water outside of you now the water that is here how this water behaves with the new will determine the nature of your health and well-being in a big way how will it behave it will behave the way you treat it in the sense today modern science has come to this and recorded various expert through various series of experiments they have come to this that water has enormous memory within itself they are calling water as fluid computer because the volume of memory and intelligence which is there in the water is so phenomenal this is something we need to understand water is not a commodity it's a life making material the water that you drink is not just going whichever way it is taking the form of a human being it has the necessary memory and intelligence only if you treat it well it tends to behave well if you treat it badly it tends to behave badly so there's a whole science culturally established in this country as to how to treat the water that you drink so these aspects have been largely lost because we are becoming a very economy driven cultures economics is only about our survival about procurement of this and that what we need economics is not the guide point of our lives the interest of mystical dimensions or the spiritual sciences have always been what are the laws which govern the Internet so towards this goal many things were created many many dimensions many many aspects many many tools and many many methods as to how to get there among all these things buta should these one of the most powerful processes the kumbhamela is an offshoot of this booth should the process it's my intention and my wish that this kumbhamela should not become just one more ritual where a huge number of people gathered this should become a transformative process I am Telling You we as Indians if we display a different level of equanimity within us you believe me in the next 25 years we will be the most valued nation because this will be the biggest challenge for the rest of the world the rest of the world wants to know how to be they know how to do but they don't know how to be this is something that we can offer to the world because when it comes to the inner mechanics of a human being I am NOT saying this with the prejudice of being Indian when it comes to the inner mechanics of the human being no culture has ever looked at the inner dimension of the human being with the profoundness that this culture is explored as Mark Twain once said after his visit he seems he even come to they came to the kumbhamela and he said anything that can ever be done by either God or man has been done in this land that is the impression we created that is the impression we need to create tomorrow for the rest of the world that anything that can be explode - in the subjective dimension we have explored this unfortunately the presentation has lost its way and it has become a ridiculous presentation we have become cowering snake-charming and whatever whatever kind of nation and now we are shifting it to IIT all this is fine but the important thing is we know how to be no matter what is around us within us we know how to bewitch will be the most valuable thing on the planet in the coming years cause everybody will get many comforts that modern technology will offer after it comes when they don't have it they think if they have it everything will be fixed the moment they have it they know nothing in life is settled that is when the whole world will become seekers one way or the other or as I said earlier for the first time human intellect is evolving like never before every human being slowly is able to think for himself right or wrong it doesn't matter but he's beginning to think once he's beginning to think you transporting him to heaven for wellbeing is not going to work you have to offer it here and you're telling him the softness of this cushion on this sofa is going to make your life well he is not going to work because everybody would have sat on it and it means nothing only because people are deprived these kind of philosophies have worked because people have been deprived for a long period if you just tell them you can eat well that looks like heaven the whole description of heaven is that you can eat well or you can do something well all the people are deprived of it's up there but these things will not work in future people will look for real solutions when they look for real solutions believe me nowhere else in the world can people offer offer profound solutions as India can offer because this is something that we have invested our time life and energies for almost eight ten thousand years and we have gleaned this knowledge not something that we believe not something that we made up as philosophies something that we observed and note it down and made tools as to how to access this it's my vision my blessing that this kumbhamela should become a huge step in the direction to awaken the world to this possibility you
