(Hindi – अंग्रेजी में बोलने से लाईट चली जायेगी – because of speaking in English if the electricity goes off.) 2:00 So we have to count our blessings again that we are at the foothill of Himalaya which is the Sahasrara of the universe.

They are simple folk, but one of them is equal to thousands and thousands of other people who are still moving in the realm of materialism. It is such a special day to be here.
