Yesterday's Satsang there was another *research on Sudarshan Kriya that was shared*

1. One way that we determine ageing is our chronological age like we are turning 30, 40, 50 years from the time that we have taken birth

*2.* Another thing is that our cells age inside. The earlier the cells age and starts dying, we experience all sorts of diseases and emotional disturbance.

*Let's understand a bit about telomeres*

A telomere is a region of repetitive DNA sequences at the end of a chromosome.

Telomeres protect the ends of chromosomes from becoming frayed or tangled. Each time a cell divides, the telomeres become slightly shorter.

Eventually, they become so short that the cell can no longer divide successfully, and the cell dies.

🔆 *So the research indicated that just after the 4 days of program where one learns Sudarshan Kriya, there was about 22% increase in the length of telomeres*

*That is adding about 2 years of healthy life*

Now they will be researching what impacts it make on Telomeres when one continues with practicing Sudarshan Kriya 😇

*Everytime we come across these researches - we can only make efforts to be consistent with such a beautiful practice that we have received*

It is not only keeping us healthy and happy, but strengthening us to blossom to our full capacity as a human being and that's a spiritual way of living (Living 100% with our full power and capacity)

Q: Sometimes I feel very lonely. I really don’t know what to do to get rid of this. I need someone to support me and someone on whom I can rely on. But no one is ready for 100% commitment. What to do?

HH Sri Sri Ravi Shankar:

Any companionship when it goes from a place of wanting or lack, to contributing, it is long lasting. You came into this world all alone. Even if you are born twins, you are alone. When you go from here, you are going to go alone. Do not try to run away from loneliness. It is a blessing in disguise.

This is the time for you to be centered. Push away everything around you. You will find that you are the scintillating energy of the universe. You are the centre of the consciousness. You are the ultimate truth. And this loneliness is only one step away from realizing that. Loneliness exists because you want to grab something from outside.

Lord Krishna in Gita has said, 'Anityam asukham lokam imam prapya bhajasva mam'. He is saying, 'This world is impermanent and there is no fun in it; there is no joy in it. Look up to me, merge in me. Put your attention onto me'.
It is time for you to do this. Trying to fill your loneliness by looking for a companion or anything outside is not going to work. Know that you are in this planet to give something and then pack up and leave. That is it. You have come here to give something. Take nothing from here.

When you get into this knowledge, or into the centre core of your existence, you will not feel lonely at all. You will feel that the consciousness around you is alive. You will see everyone as your friend. However they behave, it is immaterial, from your side, they are your friends. You become like a mother because a mother never minds if the kid is throwing pranks or tantrums, kicking or screaming. Children do all sorts of things. She doesn’t mind whether he is smiling or crying. She feels that the baby is mine. You will feel so big that the whole universe, the whole world feel part of you.

This is the way to get rid of loneliness. It does not happen by searching for someone to match your mindset. It will match only for a while, because nature has made you so unique. Each one of you has got a different thumb print. That itself shows your uniqueness. You may find some partner and feel very good for 7 years or 10 years. But you know, even after 40 years people feel that they were never together. You wonder, how they could live for 40 years and suddenly say, “We do not match each other. We are so different people”.
Come on, wake up and see. Don’t look for something or someone to fill your vacuum. There is song from a kavi (poet) which says, “My beloved comes to me in my dreams”.
When you think that this whole world is a dream, you shake hands with your beloved. Once you embrace your beloved, there is no loneliness anymore, anywhere, ever. This is the spiritual path.

I am not against you having a relationship or a family, or getting married. You can have your spouse or your companion, but not from the space of wanting something from them. You can imagine a partnership where you are content and you are only contributing to the other person. Such a relationship will last longer.

When you feel lonely, sit and meditate. Listen to bhajans or songs. Your beloved is within you. You just have to look inwards. Once you find the beloved within you, then you will find him/her everywhere in creation.

*Gurudevs New Year's Message of 2026*

*YOU ARE HERE TO GIVE BACK*

This year which has passed has brought many gifts to you, many lessons to you. Everything is evolutionary. That’s how we should see it.

You had moments which you didn’t want to happen, but they happened. And somewhere, all those happenings have brought you some strength, some wisdom, some depth. You must acknowledge this. Instead of resisting or sweeping something under the carpet, recognize it and move on.


You Are Not the Happenings

All the outside happenings are not you. You are separate from that.

How do you know that? When you step back and see all the happenings—all the good things that happened, bad things that happened, things you liked happened, you didn’t like happened—well, that is how the world is. And now you step back and see from all this you have become stronger, richer, wiser.

What do foolish people? They get embroiled in it. They keep regretting the past, and that regret will bring more anxiousness for the future. They suffer the whole time.

What do spiritual seekers do? They say, “Oh, all this is what happened. Okay.” Not regretting anything that has happened, nor being anxious about what may happen in the future.

If we can learn to see things with this vision, then we have won. Then nobody can take the smile away from you. No situation can put you down. That is the whole purpose of the spiritual path. That is the whole idea behind why you do meditation and all these practices. It’s to be able to see the reality from a different plane altogether.


Enter 2026 as a Giver

With the coming of 2026, make sure you are putting all the positive thoughts out there. Of course, there are many things that will happen in the world. For example, where construction happens, first there is digging. Only then the building comes up. If there is a dilapidated old building, first the bulldozer comes to tear it down, and then the new building comes up. So that happens every year.

Every day, know that you are lucky. That’s good enough to keep your spirit high. Say, “I’m so lucky.” Number one.

Second: I’m here to do some good work. I’ve come to this world as a giver, not a taker.

A giver is independent. A taker is not. So knowing “I have come here to give,” then your needs will be taken care of. Nature will take care of what you need. In fact, you will get more than what you need.

So let’s have this thought: I have come here to give back something in this world

Everybody has some moments of ups and downs in life. Never mind if one such moment happens. Never mind. But just have this resolution in your mind: I’m here to do some good. I’m here to give something back.

And don’t get frustrated. “Oh, I’m here to do something good, but I’m not able to do.” That’s not going to help either. Because our mind is so tricky that in any situation it can create misery. We are so expert in it. In the best of the situation, we create misery of our own. Our mind creates its own misery, its own shell, and it sits in it and keeps reeling and reeling about it.

When nothing matters, then you are happy.
That does not mean you don’t take responsibility.
Practice Plus Wisdom

Just practices are not enough. Wisdom is also essential along with the practice. Wisdom is listening to this knowledge. Either you go the route of science or through spirituality, you converge at the same point: that everything is nothing. This is all nothing. And then you become happy. When nothing matters, then you are happy.

That does not mean you don’t take responsibility. You take responsibility, and at the same time keep yourself from falling into a rut. Yeah, that is the Art of living.

Step back and see. Be a witness to all that’s happening.

We do this after, not while we’re working. That would be disastrous. After you finish every job, all the work, or before you start some work, take a few minutes of absolute quietness. Be silent. Be a witness. But then when you are acting, you must be 100% in that.


There Is Hope.

Art of Living is entering into its 45th year in 2026. Forty-five years back, people had a lot of reservations and cynicism about meditation. But today that’s not there. Now people know how important it is to meditate.

And so many kids are blossoming with intuitive abilities. So there is hope for society. Because when people read the news all the time about so many wars and all that stuff, people feel down.

They should hear how a new hope is coming to the world. There is another dimension to look into—a higher dimension where life is eternal and blissful, and everything else is drama. And you can enjoy the drama, whether as an actor, a director, or an onlooker.

There is another dimension to look into—a higher dimension where life is eternal and blissful, and everything else is drama.
So once again, everyone, take this resolution. Just confirm this within you: that you are lucky, and you are here to do something good. Think about what you want to give.

Step back and see. Be a witness. And know that you have come here to give back to the world.

Life is here, and there is no scarcity of miracles in life. They keep happening. They will happen more. Give that hope to everyone.

Mind-blowing research on Sanyam Program by Dr. Ronnie Newman, a Harvard-trained researcher.

She compared people who had only done the SKY (Sudarshan Kriya) Breath (Part 1) course with those who completed Sanyam Level 1.

Even among participants living at the with Sri Sri, Sanyam showed clear added benefits:

• 57% higher optimism

• 42% deeper relaxation

• 29% clearer thinking

• 28% greater emotional balance

• Higher energy, vitality,
flexibility, and physical strength

• Stronger sense of purpose and usefulness in life

Gratitude showed the smallest increase (11%) because it is already very high after Part 1 and time in ’s presence.

The research clearly shows that Sanyam Level 1 program in takes mental, emotional, and physical well-being far deeper than Part 1.

Take part in Sanyam Program soon using the link below ❤️

Sanyam is a combined practice of Dhāraṇā, Dhyāna and Samādhi. The profound meditations of this program act as keys that open the doors to the blossoming of divine qualities.
