Abstract

A. N. Pandey

 It is a saying that “Prevention is better than cure”. The same principle has to be adopted in case of swine flu and its havoc as till there is absence of any medical and scientific development to prevent and cure the swine flu. After large death toll all over the world due to virus and its sign of spreading beyond human control, drew the attention of many to search any kind of remedial aspects to have some solace by preventing or controlling this. On 10th evening, while I was meditating, I got a question “whether swine flu could be overcome or cured with the help of yoga or not?” After some time, an intuitive message came that “Yes, there are methods available in yogic practice given by spiritual masters (Rishis) and same can be used as a preventive approach against swine flu”. After meditation, I fortunately opened a book “A systematic course in the Ancient tantric techniques of yoga and kriya” by Swami Satyananda Saraswati of Bihar school of yoga (The book reprinted in 2007; inscribed by Nischalananda Saraswati, UK; Emendated by Swami Mangalmurti Saraswati, Australia). This book contains ancient spiritual wisdom along with modern scientific wisdom written, reviewed and amended by highly elevated spiritual masters.
