NOTES FROM PATIENTS CURED BY YOGA TREATMENT.


Srimathi Bhagyalakshmi Ranganathan - Dharmapuri
(Complicated delivery averted - Normal delivery successful).

My name is Bhagyalakshmi. I am a resident of Dharmapuri. My husband is Sri Ranganathan Chettiar. Our business is money-lending. I happened to be the worst sufferer during child delivery times before 20 years. None would have suffered so much as I would have been subjected to. I am even now shudder to recollect the ordeal I had to undergo before and after deliveries.

In 1938, my Gurudeva and Yogacharya Sri Sundaram started writing about aasana-Praanaayama, in AnandaVikatan for the first time in Tamil Nadu. My husband who was interested in his articles continously started practising the Aasanas and Praanaayama. He practised well and he was greatly benefited by the aasana. So he insisted upon my practising the yogasanas regularly. As per his wish I started doing the Aasanas. Encouraged by the improvement. I took serious interest and continued serious practice of the Aasanas. In the meantime I became pregnant and I was free from amenorrhoea, nausea and vomiting which usually trouble me proviously. During pregnancy the troubles which I used to get no more. As per Gurudevas instructions. I continously practised the Aasanas, when one night.

After motion I informed my husband about symptoms of delivery and asked him to send for mid-wife. The mid-wife arrived. She took me to a separate room. She told to get a coconut for breaking to ward off Dhrishti. When my husband’s brother set foot for bringing coconut, when he heard the sound of the cry of the new born baby. So he returned back with surprise. All these things took only in ten minutes time.

For all this normal delivery (free from trouble pain) seemed to be a dream. I was surprised and felt very happy for this delivery without the least trouble. Formally I used to have severe stomach-ache for three days continously after delivery, but this time I was having no such pain and was normal.

Sri.N.Muniswamy - Kovilpidagai.
(frequent fever disappeared. Appetite regained)

My name is Muniswamy. At present I am residing at Kovilpidagai. I got my first appointment in the year (1944). After a few days I was attacked by fever. I had diorrhoea. There was having writhing pain all over the body and giddiness continoulsy. I tried many drugs but of no use. Day by day the disease took a worse turn. My body became lean and I could not eat food. There was frequent changes in my nature. For some days I was bed-ridden and was unconscious even. Again I suffered from fever. I was again weakened. Small pox, Typhoid and scabies attacked me one after another. At intervals of 15 days I was attacked by fever regularly.

Finally the day of my relief dawned on me. It was a good day on 10-11-48 with the help of my friend I approached for.V.N. Kumaraswamy, the disciple of Yogacharya Sri. Sundaram of Chennai. He was so kind as to give me a copy of Ananda Rahasya (Secret of Happiness) and Yogic cure also. First of all I learnt Sarvaangaasana and Matsyaasana and started practising them. Gradually increased the time of this exercise. Suddenly one day I was attacked by severe fever. I got discouraged a little. As soon as I found some relief. I went to Bangalore to meet the Yogacharya. When I met him and apprised him of my condition. He told me “fever is due to old outstanding” so don’t be discouraged. Stop the Aasanas till the fever subsides and then continue the Aasanas regularly according to instructions and advised me by revealing the truths and supportive experiences of patients from the book “The secret of happiness” or Yogic physical culture.

Next week he taught the Bhujangaasana, Salabasana and Dhanuraasana and Nadi Shavaasanas. Then Paschi, Halaasana and Mayuraasanas and then Sarvanga, Matsya and Shirasaasana. The outstanding of the disease often used to show their heads. But its severity was decreasing gradually. After three months, I was cured completely. Till now it has not affected me.
