Real health comes from Nature

A satsang on health, natural remedies, and gentle yoga practice.

"I am not a doctor, yes? Please. I am Swami. I am a yogī. And I am you, a natural."

"So many things we do not know. We do not know that one has. If you know exactly, then everything is gone."

Swami Maheshvaranand leads a satsang, discussing the limitations of conventional medicine and praising natural, holistic approaches to health. He shares anecdotes about medicinal tree bark and the work of Yogī Ramdev, while also critiquing how doctors often manage rather than cure illness. The session concludes with instructions for a gentle, supine yoga exercise intended for digestive health.

It is a beautiful day, a beautiful time, and by this, all is good. We are all very good. We know that sometimes, though not many, some people have something in the body. Of course, doctors are looking at them, but perhaps not in this way. When they can cut something in the body or do something, it flares up again and again. Even the doctor himself has something, but why? It was a long time. We did not have too many problems in the body. All but one, every day giving injections, this and that. When the doctor says everything is good, that it will be okay, people are happy. But they do not give away that disease. Every day, every day, every day, it is okay that you do not feel this or that. Yes. So many things with the doctors—they are doing, they are seeing everybody, but many times they do not know. So they say, "Do this and that." But the other side is also like we call in most Indians, and some others nearby, this to this and that. Mostly, only there can they do something. They will do everything, and this is gone. Or now it is like this, but there are many things which we cannot do, which the doctors cannot do. It is both good and not good. In others, what we do only in nature like this is very good, or may not be, but mostly we are healthy. Now, you know how much we have from India and from Modiji and all those people. They were, they are doing. But that Modiji has brought, and now really so many people go out and come. Only certain, this is just nature from the nature. So we do exercise very much. Many people are practicing yoga, many, many, but they do not know they are. Making yoga, they are going in the university or something, or in the hospital there. But they do not know this. That is not very much, and those who are very in their natural... Nature is this tree. This tree is so great, but we do not know. We did not tell our water. How is our water there? So many things are like this. And so, in three days it was, or maybe the fourth day, I was only telling you this, giving this exercise, something like this, and they went very good. Very good, just it was so. There are many people who have problems in the stomach. And what can we do? We give some medicine or something like this, and like this, and like this. But the yogīs said, they said, "Okay, it will be done." He said, "But can it be the medicine? No medicine." This is only some different kind of thing in the body, different in how it is, and that it will come again in our stomach, really. Three times, how many people have only from looking, and so little giving, that movement? How? What happened for them? Can you tell me that? Yes, you are really... it came back again in your stomach, something. Can you please hand it up? Yes, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven. So, like this, I am not a doctor, yes? Please. I am Swami. I am a yogī. And I am you, a natural. Whatever is natural, we are eating. Our eating is very good in this way. And today, again we will do, but again, then I said, "Oh my God, it is wrong." I wanted to do this today, very great and everything. And I came here and I said, oh, it can be a problem. So that I did not, otherwise I want to lie down, and we have to make some kind of movement in our body. And yes, morning, how very simple, very simple, but very good. And again, everything comes at the right point. I said, "My God, I could have seen this also, but I am now low, long, very dead." Yes, so there is not only one that is in, but while doing, doing, doing... Doing, doing with the doctors, going, going, yeah. They give, of course you do not feel this or that, but all the times, little more to more, little more than, more to than, it is said only one little capsule, that is all. But on the capsule, we double the second, and there we said that, but I am now completely with that. I do not know Modiji, Knight Modiji, the other one there, Yogīśvara, Vajraśra. He said, "Please, Maheśvarānandījī, come in three, three years, three prayers, and you will be comforted." I also feel, "Will I come or not? Will I be coming?" But it is many people who have taken out all about this. We have, "I will go one day. All, I go." That is very, very important, really nature. It is nature. There is nothing. There are... So many things we do not know. We do not know that one has. If you know exactly, then everything is gone, but we did not, and they are still. Some, they are laying there. This tree, how it is only the whatever on the tree, what is that bark? And so, this bark. Only there, from this, nothing else. And I know that many, many people have got... So, one of my disciples from Mahāprabhujī's and from Advanānjī's, and so they... It was in Rajasthan, but in every part, there is maybe that one tree and only bark. Take a little bark from this, and then cut it, dry it, and then boil it with this. But what I did, on doing, will make a powder, and then in hot water, let it in, and after, you can drink it because, or you can put out this also. Otherwise, it is just... You can think, and I can tell you in Badīkhāṭu, from there is one other person, and he says, "Rāmījī, I drink this, it is only this water, from this my whole body becomes very nice, very relaxed." But he could not find where it is, so I also... I sent him. I brought from here to here. I am still thinking like this: "I will do, I will do, I do here," and then it is there. From this, who was? We are sadhus. We are talking to each other, so who said how it happened? So there is one swāmī, he has got a... Sannyāsī or something, but he is a very great and very nice, and he makes this also medicine, this little, and after eating just a little, three trips in my stomach, that is all. And this is that from which he has learned from this, and he is a very... Great, and he did it very much. And many people, they are taking this, but we should not. This medicine also does not cure; they cannot cure it. It is only, "Yes, okay, tomorrow," and like this. But there are other yogīs; they are getting from some different, of this natural. All trees, and this and that, gardens and this, so that is, we are taking very much, my dears. I was talking to someone, I wanted to make you exercise, lie down and this, but I said, "Oh my god, your stomach is inside, anybody get up," and then, so sorry, but then, but so I asked from... Yoga Yogeshwar Yoga from India, yes, Ramdev, the Ramdevjī. Ramdevjī is really very good, I tell you, but people say or not, and he is doing nearly assim. So I told, I said to one, can I give some my disciple from here? He said, yes, yes, please give me. But the government, many there, they are all in other countries, they do not want it like this. Otherwise, medicine will go down. It is coming. Anyhow, so I told, and he said yes. And I sent him there, and his people came. They said, "Okay, we will do this and that." And one week, they were there. They came, they saw this and that, and then they go. Then they will come again in one month or two months. "Okay, you can come, welcome." But they have done the thing. And then again it was there, and then all they come, and he was not given anything. So I told him from Riyadh, so he said, "I will not do this. They are in India, they are doing all not good." But he said yes, he will come, he will do. He sent to the government and. Everything, and it took him one and a half years to get all of this, to bring it all so that it is a medicine. That is medicine, and in this country, otherwise, it will make many things. So he did completely very good in this. And that, and now, in today's or something, they gave me a message. Now you will come, and you can give you, and no countries also, your Slovenia and Croatia. You cannot imagine how well it would be, really, and this you will be very, very. Much, and you see, it is like medicines that doctors give. In that way, naturally, all that he is doing and giving is very great, so many, many people are coming, and it will be very healthy and very good, but other... Medicine is also very good, I do not tell that it is not good, yeah, but this and that are different things, yes. So many things, there is some medicine, but something is, a doctor came and he will fall down now, or he is immediately a doctor. This doctor will come and he can make it that he is again. He will be healthy, but that cannot be done likely like this. So there are both things, very good, but this is a very natural, very good thing that we can just leave, or just a little thing. It is a very nice thing, very great things. So now, nobody gives me time to be here. If I am in India or in America or in Australia or in Europe or here, everything we are working, giving, and something, I would, I would bring you this very nicely, and we will come on like this. We will give this center here, then if he comes, then we make our center. Yeah, but it is a check when the check is coming or not, so this is very, very good for all of you. And so, morning again, morning when you get up, you can drink water or tea, okay? And then after, when you come for the lunch or for food eating. Morning, before that, if we all can do one week, oh, one month? No, no, one day, only one day. So after you come from that class, you come from this class, and all, we will again be there, and there we will do some exercises. You will really get very... Good for our body inside, and so our many, many friends, our brothers, only this exercise I tell. How did it? In the two exercises, there are two exercises here, and they are again very nice. So this is we have to come, but it will come. Again, back. So, but you can do it yourself. You need to anymore? How in the stomach is going like this, really? So otherwise we said, "Oh, I have a problem, my heart, my, yes." Then we go to the doctor. The doctor said, "Okay, it will be okay, I give you some, yeah." So we do not feel the pain. But it is, there is that point, so lucky that we are coming to do. I am very happy that you are all in this year's like this. And morning, I will come, okay? What time do you go, morning people? From there, what they are going, yeah, understand. But what time they go, okay? And then when you come from there out, eight o'clock? Bob, how better coming from where? Hmm, yes. But when do you come there back? 8 o'clock bus? 8, 8... Yeah, okay. So they will come, and they have them 20, 20, or the 20. Will you come and do the lights? But do not eat all the water you can, but nothing. And we will see tomorrow, really. So tomorrow and day after tomorrow, these two, it will be very good for. Our exercises, yeah, and it will be, you will see how it is, yes. But when someone is already a doctor, have cut it out, then what will he do? He will only be holding like this, or making something inside. Both, I tell you, did this medicines and doctors, and this is okay. I always say that is a good, but other also is very, very good. So better is very good if we can do it and forgive it. Otherwise, otherwise you can do so. Tomorrow I will. Work for you, okay? And it is a very, very simple thing. This is this, yeah. So I go, then it is very... He says, yeah, there is only one. Doctor said to do many good, everything, but this also. So he said, "Okay, sit down. Yes, lie down." And then what he is doing, you do not know. Okay, finished. What? Not his point, that he was pregnant or not, but these other movements, and then nothing, no pain, nothing. I go home. So this is also there, and that person did not go again. So I said, "Oh, I said, 'Oh my God, I did not give you so much pain.'" He said, "No, no, I do not have any more." Yes, so there are both this is and that other is. Really? So we will do one center there. But the one exercise I can give you, okay? I will sit on. So your head is this side, it is not good. So you can have your head there, and your legs this side. No problem. I will say, "Mahāprabhujī, sorry." Is it okay? So you lie down on your back, okay? Yes. Just relax very nicely. And if it is, you feel comfortable, then bring your legs down, just like your knees, okay? Your knees, a little, yes, and no, any pillar on your, in your, on your head, okay? So, very nice, very comfortable. Make it your whole stomach. Back this down is very good. Make comfortable. Your eating was very good, very calm, very good. Yes, like as you like, or you can have leg straight or like this. Very nice. Hands beside, no any bed or anything behind on your, and your head. No, yeah, but no, any, what you call that? On the head of the earth, stomach, nothing. Anything, only on the floor. Pillow, no pillow, no pillow. Therefore, you can pull your legs a little bit. This can be very good, comfortable, and will be good for you. You should be very relaxed. All of our practitioners, yoga in daily life. Yoga in daily life is so good. And beautify, very good. And this is yoga in their life, Swami Maheshvaranand. It was very nice exercise given by Czechoslovakia and Hungary. That was very great exercises. We brought this everything. And please stretch your legs, stretch your... Legs, and slowly sit up, and with the The logs in this point, this one, and a little separate, yeah, stress like, like this, and just. Relax on the floor as you like. Yes, your hands, your elbows, very relaxed. Every day after eating. You should do these two or three movements, practice. Very good. It will be very good. And now, raise your hand up and hands down, knees as it is. Just relax. Just sit, stand like this. So when we are standing like this, then automatically the whole body is going very straight. And so it is very good for the stomach. We have eaten this and that, and so, many people, when they sit like this and do, their stomach will have no problems. This one, left and right, or this, no. And five minutes. Some are taking ten, or men whose people are sitting there. It is best after eating to sit like this. Yes, you do it at home also, but of course, if you can see like this and everything, so we have to slowly, slowly learn. But those who have knees broken or this and that, we should... Not doing very good for the body, and eating everything is. And now we will say: Hari Om Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Dev Puruṣa Mahādeva Majvanājī Bhagavān Satya Sanātana Dharma Om Śānti Om Te Śānti Hari Om.
