The responsibility of the Yoga in daily life teacher
A ceremonial address bestowing instructor certification and spiritual responsibility.
"With this piece of paper, the light of Mahāprabhujī and the yoga life is handed over to you."
"People will trust you, placing their confidence and attention into your hands. Therefore, do not disappoint their confidence."
The speaker confers diplomas for Yoga in Daily Life, charging new instructors with the duty to faithfully teach and guide others. Emphasizing kindness and operating within one's capacity, the address frames this role as a sacred trust, using the analogy of a reliable airplane pilot to illustrate constant care for students. The event concludes with dedicating a bhajan, "Mera Satgurū Diyo Isāro," to the new graduates.
