Come here to practice yoga
A spiritual leader addresses a gathering at an ashram, discussing the sanctity of the location and the community's service work.
"Our fruits here are all very good. Our vegetation is very good. We can take a long, very good walk. This is truly beautiful, very good."
"We help many, many people, and the animals, and cows, and the honeybees. It is very good that, thanks to this, we have another opportunity to help not only people but also animals and bees."
The speaker begins with chants and praises the ashram's pure environment, encouraging attendees to visit for spiritual practice (sādhanā). He outlines the community's charitable activities, mentioning affiliations with organizations like the United Nations, and discusses future travel plans to India to further this work. The talk concludes with blessings.
