Yogacharya Swami Ramdev of Patanjali Yog Peeth, said, “We are witness to a revolution in the form of this unforgettable Pramukh Swami Maharaj Centenary Celebration. I have seen three Kumbh Melas, but this festival is a Mahakumbh!
This is a perfect example of how an effective and inspiring event can be organized. I took Pramukh Swami Maharaj’s blessings thirty years ago in Surat, when I was a nobody. Today, when I am known globally, I still yearn for the blessings of Pramukh Swami Maharaj. I experienced a profound peace and divinity in his presence.”
