He witnessed a spontaneous healing miracle of the great author Gopinath Kaviraj during her Darshan.
His Holiness Swami Ram Kripalu Das Ji was born in Orissa on September 27, 1940. He went in search of his master at sixteen years of age. After some wanderings by way of pilgrimage he reached Uttar Kashi and thence he went to Gomukha to surrender himself at the feet of His Holiness Sri Vishnu Das Ji. After a Tapasya of about ten years in the Himalayas, he descended on a nationwide pilgrimage of the four Dhams. He later settled down at a lower height in Uttar Kashi. Uttar Kashi Ashram was washed away in Ganga floods a few years ago and now His Holiness has taken abode in Maya Kund, Rishikesh, (quite near the ashram of the famous saint HH. Sachchindanand Ashram of Rishikesh).A Walk Down Memory Lane | Chaitanya BalsekarNikhil K2018-10-07 | Chaitanya Balsekar, Author of ‘Dream of Consciousness’ speaks about his meeting with the great Advaita Sage Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj.

Dr. Neelesh Korde explains that it is very important to eat locally grown products for they do not require pesticides or the process of freezing for them to be used, making it the best food choice.
Replying to a question on how one can reduce the toxic effects of non-organic foods, Dr. Korde says that whether food is organic or non-organic, there are certain toxic effects that the food is sure to exhibit on the system. A healthy liver can effectively deal with the toxicants, but it is important to remember that one should not strain the liver all the while, by consuming such foods (loaded with pesticides, preservatives, additives) constantly.
If our system is good, Ayurveda recommends that we follow a cleansing diet once every 3 months or at least a thorough cleansing once a year. Toxins should not be allowed to accumulate inside the body. They are present everywhere, especially in the air we breathe, in the water we drink, and in the food we eat, and we can't control that. How our body will react to that depends on how we treat our body. Cleansing is the only method by which we can eliminate toxins effectively from the body, without putting our system into imbalance.
Dr. Korde recommends Panchakarma cleansing; and also advises easier detoxification techniques such as a daily oil application using sesame oil or weekly body massage; this helps drain out toxins from the body. Sweat is yet another method to eliminate toxins, therefore steam baths are also advisable, these are the easiest methods that can be done by anyone, and best done under medical supervision. This is especially advised to those in other parts of the world who do not have access to Ayurvedic resources available in India.
Dr Korde also recommends fasting for half a day once a week, mindfully skipping one meal, making sure to drink plenty of warm water during that time to allow the system to rest for a while, giving it a break from loading and overloading it with food.Healthy Oil Sources - Sesame & Coconut Oil BenefitsNikhil K2013-09-16 | In this video, Dr. Neelesh Korde explains why coconut oil is so beneficial for the human body, whether it is consumed internally or used externally. This oil does not raise the cholesterol level as much as other oils do, in fact it does not strain the lipid system of the body. Coconut oil is thin and when applied on the skin, it is absorbed very fast.
Sources of oil are based on geographical location and nature astutely created these oils because humans required the fats for food. Oils are derived from local plant sources. In the coastal regions, there is an abundance of coconuts; in the plateaus, peanuts are found in plenty; in the northern plains, mustard is the chief source for oil. When it comes to naming the best oil, Ayurveda, which normally never generalizes, states that sesame oil is good for everyone, irrespective of their constitution.
Oil has traditionally been extracted from sources such as coconut, sesame and mustard using the technique of cold pressing. Oils extracted in this manner didn't have any toxic material in them since they were unprocessed. Today various other methods are used for deriving oil, rendering them unhealthy.
There are fats from animal sources, one of which is ghee. Dr. Korde goes on to discuss ghee and why it is beneficial. While animal fat is a direct derivative, ghee undergoes the process of heat, this makes it light and it doesn't stick to the walls of the arteries. Geographical location is equally important while choosing oils, for this, along with genetic composition, will determine whether you can digest a particular oil. A person living in the south of India will find it easy to digest coconut oil whereas in the north, people digest mustard oil quite easily.Ramesh Balsekar and The Futility of JudgementNikhil K2013-09-15 | Gautam Sachdeva, author of 'Pointers from Ramesh Balsekar', narrates an incident that reveals there are always two sides to a situation and how being quick to judge the actions of others in haste is, ultimately, utterly futile.
Gautam specifically refers to an incident concerning his spiritual teacher, the late Advaita sage Ramesh Balsekar.Your Diet should depend on your Demographics and GeneticsNikhil K2013-09-15 | When we talk of a 'diet', we have to consider that a diet is completely individualized and not generalized. It is dependent on one's genetic composition and the kinds of foods one can digest, because those genes have been formed after digesting similar kinds of food, for generations. Geographical location plays an important role in determining our diet. Dr. Neelesh Korde illustrates with examples of diets adapted to the extreme climatic conditions of Northern India and the warm, humid coastal regions of Southern India.
He explains the best diet options to follow when one has to move one's location and settle in different climatic conditions. There is a strong link between our geographical location and our diet and if is advisable to be aware of this.
It is not easy for a person who has been consuming a lot of meats to suddenly become vegetarian, just as it is not advisable to abruptly change a vegetarian's diet to a high-protein diet.
Ayurveda advises a judicious balance of all components of food -- vegetables, cereals (carbohydrates), a little bit of protein, and a lot of fruit material or raw green salads. If your diet is set up according to your genetic composition and your geographical location, your digestive system functions effortlessly.
Today, there is easy availability of different foods from all parts of the world, with multi-cuisine specialty restaurants and supermarkets offering global choices. The body finds it difficult to digest a pizza one day, a burger the next, Japanese food the third day, Korean the following day, Thai food the next day, and so on... The body has to reset its computer and secrete those digestive juices and enzymes which will help in the digestion of these foods that is it genetically not used to. This is the origin of disease.Ayurvedic food types and their characteristicsNikhil K2013-09-13 | In this video, Dr. Neelesh Korde advises that before choosing a diet, we must understand how the foods we eat will affect our body. He explains that while the today's world classifies food as proteins, carbohydrates, fats, minerals and vitamins, Ayurveda's understanding of food is quite different. It is based on the qualities of the food that are passed on to the person consuming that particular food. Take for instance, meats. While most people today group meats as white meats that are healthy and red meats that are unhealthy, Ayurveda regards meat as the animal source from where it originates. Different meats impart different qualities to the human body. Pork, beef, veal, lamb, venison.... all impart that particular animal's characteristics and traits to the consumer and we literally become what we eat. Dr. Korde illustrates with examples of the pig, goat, and chicken.
Ayurveda classifies meats according to its qualities and what is best for the body and body type. Generalisations such as white meats being good for you and red meats being bad for you are not made by Ayurveda.
Similarly, vegetables have a definite structure. Potatoes and other dense foods grow underground while green leafy vegetables grow above it, and then there are vegetables such as capsicums and bell peppers with a central empty cavity... all have different qualities which are imbibed by the body.Kundalini Master Santosh Sachdeva talks about The Kundalini ArtworksNikhil K2013-09-13 | 'The Kundalini Artworks' are a visual and symbolic representation of the process of awakening of the Kundalini.
In the history and literature of the Kundalini, there has never been anything like this work, with its detailed illustrations and delineation of the actual processes involved in the awakening of this inner force.
'The Kundalini Artworks' is a treasure trove of Kundalini that resonates with a powerful spiritual energy. Unprecedented and pioneering, a work like this is an invaluable reference guide for an aspirant journeying along the path of the loving and grace bestowing Kundalini.Weight Loss - Understanding your Body TypeNikhil K2013-09-13 | Dr. Korde stresses on the importance of knowing our body type, for that helps us to choosing everything in life (diet, lifestyle, sleep patterns, relationships, etc.) It even helps us understand how to manage our weight keeping in mind our body type.
Weight management for the Kapha type who is a little on the heavier side is not easy, for he loves his food, eats slowly, and digests and metabolises very slowly as well. For a Pitta type of a person who is neither heavy nor lean but medium built, weight management is not an issue, he eats, digests and eliminates waste effortlessly. The Vata type individual who is usually thin and wiry eats as much as he wants but never seems to gain weight.
If a Kapha type wishes to become as lean as a Vata type, it is next to impossible. And even if it is achieved, it is only for a very short duration before the body goes back to its original design. For a Pitta type, body weight doesn't matter, he will retain the same weight because of his active metabolism. The heat in the body melts the fat very fast and whatever is eaten is digested and metabolized very fast as well.
Many other choices are determined by our body type. Sleep is an example. A Kapha type would require more amount of sleep and if he controls the amount of sleep, he won't put on more weight. Eating habits are also determined by the body type, Kapha type should have eating habits that are a little different to the Pittas and Vatas. The Kapha type is advised to have a couple of glasses of warm water before a meal, for this helps in its digestion. The Pitta type is advised to take a little ghee, which is cooling, to regulate the digestive fire. And the Vata type is advised to eat a lot of sweets...Why you should avoid eating between MealsNikhil K2013-09-13 | Using a simple metaphor that compares the process of digestion to rice cooking in a saucepan, Dr. Korde explains how eating between meals creates digestive disorders. It is important to allow rice to cook properly to render it edible for consumption. It is easy to imagine what were to happen if a handful of rice grains were periodically tossed into the pan while the rice is cooking. The end result would be a complete mess, with over-cooked rice, partially-cooked rice, under-cooked rice, burnt rice and sticky rice all in the same pot. Similarly, if we keep ingesting mouthfuls of food between meals, the digestive process would go completely awry.
If you munch something off and on, it creates a mess inside. The stomach is forced to leave the previously eaten meal half-digested and attend to the newly ingested food. This happens every time you snack between meals. With this stop-and-go process, the eventual outcome is that this results in material that can neither be digested by the body, nor can it be properly eliminated from the body, and this is the beginning of digestive problems.Why Diet is Important in preventing CancerNikhil K2013-09-11 | Dr. Neelesh Korde tells us how Ayurveda explains a disorder such as cancer. According to the physiology of Ayurveda, reproduction of partially formed cells indicates that the food that one consumes is not doing its best to reproduce the seven tissues. Food is first converted to chyle or 'rasa' (plasma and fluids), which in turn gets converted to blood, and then to muscle tissue, fat tissue, bone tissue, bone marrow, and finally reproductive tissue is formed. The entire process takes a long time, about fourteen to sixteen years, before the body can procreate and produce gametes.
It is this consumption and conversion that determines whether one has healthy or unhealthy cells. It is strange that while the human body has remained unchanged for millennia, while the basic foods we consume are still the same, there is a sudden surge in certain types of disorders in the last forty or fifty years. Dr. Korde reminds us that it is the diet that plays an important role in the prevention of any disorder, even cancer.
