Yog Gram 3rd April 2023
Daaji remained at the ashram with Baba Ramdev ji and listened to the effects of positive thoughts and how their predominance has eradicated fatal diseases even in a matter of days in the followers of Babaji. He also enjoyed a tour of Ayurvedic manufacturing and packaging units.
Daaji went on to share that we normally think that memory (smriti), remains in the brain. But it is not so. It remains in the atmosphere as well. Otherwise, how would the previous occupant’s desires and hopes have come from the bed into his head? Baba Ramdev ji continued the discussion, sharing that the whole universe is energy, and matter and energy are interrelated- different forms of matter being nothing but combinations of energy- to which Daaji agreed and said that everything is vibrations. Babaji went on to share that when he makes people do pranayama, he encourages them to give themselves positive thoughts, positive force and vibrations, that they are being healed in the process.
Daaji had a disturbed sleep and woke early at 6:40 AM. After a bath and papaya, coffee and snacks, He went for a walk within the compound. As usual many joined Daaji on his walk. He returned soon thereafter, and upon being asked if all was well, He jokingly replied that he may have developed a human allergy. It was a subtle reminder to all of us that he needed to walk alone peacefully at times.
At around 9 AM, Baba Ramdev ji and Sadhavi Devamaya ji joined him after their live TV programs. Daaji conducted a meditation session for about 30 minutes before breakfast. In a discussion that ensued, Daaji spoke about not having slept too well as vibrations of the previous occupant of the room had affected him. Daaji went on to share that we normally think that memory (smriti), remains in the brain. But it is not so. It remains in the atmosphere as well.

Baba Ramdev ji continued the discussion, sharing that the whole universe is energy, and matter and energy are interrelated- different forms of matter being nothing but combinations of energy- to which Daaji agreed and said that everything is vibrations. Babaji went on to share that when he makes people do pranayama, he encourages them to give themselves positive thoughts, positive force and vibrations, that they are being healed in the process.
He spoke about a girl who had healed herself of breast cancer in just two months and a man who was healed of liver cirrhosis in just fourteen days with this technique. Daaji laughed and said that the disease had evaporated and expressed that he wanted to do it too. Even science now accepts this to be true.
Breakfast time was full of joyful moments. Daaji had liked the mulberries served to him the day before and had them again for breakfast. He was served by Babaji and his associates affectionately throughout his stay there- again, humble learning in respect and hospitality. After breakfast, a discussion followed on 'manan' (contemplation) as different from 'soach' (thinking), the former being a 360-degree expansion with no limitations, compared to the latter. Daaji then shared a few aspects about the research of Lalaji Maharaj on breathing trouble in the lungs.
Baba Ramdev ji recommended some treatment for Daaji to which he agreed. He also put forward a plan to visit the various parts of the Patanjali campuses in the evening that day. Further, they both discussed a few more plans. After some time, Shri Kamlesh ji (Salt man) visited Daaji and Baba Ramdev ji. He showed Babaji the different salt products that were produced and distributed through Heartyculture. Daaji presented Baba Ramdev ji with the Heartyculture Nasal Cleanse Kit and added that he prayed that he (Babaji) would never be in a position where he needed to use it. After the meetings, Daaji was given some ayurvedic treatment by Baba Ramdev ji's associates following which he went to rest for the afternoon.
The evening was reserved for a special tour of the Patanjali Food Limited industries. Daaji left at 4:45 PM and reached the location where Babaji had been awaiting him eagerly. Baba Ramdevji took him on a tour of the whole facility driving him in his own car and showing him the various manufacturing and packaging units. During the tour, Daaji stopped to taste some interesting Ayurvedic food items. It was an amusing moment, where watching everyone look longingly at the items being tasted, Daaji jokingly asked the items to be given to them as their mouths were watering.
Daaji returned to Yog Gram by 8:45 PM, had dinner, and retired for the day.
