“Religion gives rise to ego and ignorance and Spiritualism spreads oneness, coexistence and brotherhood,”

“Forty percent of budget in Canada goes towards health care If Canadians make Yoga part of their life than fifty percent of this money could be saved.”

His Holiness Param Pujya Swami Ramdev was in Greater Toronto Area on a short visit and held a press conference and for two very exclusive by-invitation only events.  This was an opportunity for Canadians to interact with a sage who is reshaping India’s identity and destiny and is credited with taking the yoga to an international platform with International day for Yoga being observed the world over.

At a press conference that was held on Aug 19 at The Host Fine Indian Cuisine. Swami Ram Dev shared his views on a varied range of topics that exhibited his wide knowledge. In an exclusive interview with The Weekly Asian Connections Newspaper he expressed that Yoga and spirituality is God for him. He said “Yoga is a way of self- realization & self-healing,” and emphasized that Canada can gain from adopting yoga.  “Forty percent of budget in Canada goes towards health care If Canadians make Yoga part of their life than fifty percent of this money could be saved.”

Yoga done for one hour a day can be effective and can address problems like obesity too. “Obesity is a major problem in the western world and through yoga one can lose at least one to two kilograms per week,” said Baba Ramdev. “Apply yoga in daily life and deceases will stay away,” he added.

The event was organized by Vedic Holistic Living of Canada that offers services in health encompassing yoga, Ayurveda and holistic medication with no side effects; and education that links spiritual Vedic education with modern education. Baba Ram Dev was at his best when explaining the difference between religion and spiritualism.  “Religion gives rise to ego and ignorance and Spiritualism spreads oneness, coexistence and brotherhood,” he said.

Baba Ram Dev had a strong point to make on the present situation in India, he said “People tend to misuse Religion and for bringing social economic and political reform in India- still work in progress and a lot to do.”
