Swami Ramdev( Born 1965), also known as Baba Ramdev, is an Indian Hindu swami and an ardent admirer of Swami Dayananda Saraswati, Swami Vivekananda and Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose[citation needed]. He is particularly well-known for his efforts in popularizing Yoga as enunciated and professed by Patanjali's yoga shaastra. He is also one of the founders of the Divya Yog Mandir Trust that aims to popularize yoga and offer Ayurvedic treatments. His camps are attended by a large number of people. Over 85 million people[1] follow his yoga camps via TV channels, and video. His yoga teaching sessions are for the masses and free for all. His stated principle in life is to be of help to all. The sessions are conducted with minimal to exorbitant charges, depending on the place where the camp is being offered. In 1995, Swami Ramdev established the Divya Yog Mandir Trust with Acharya Karamveer and Acharya Balkrishna. Acharya Karmaveer is well-versed in Yog and Veda while Acharya Balkrishna is a physician with a degree in Ayurveda. (However now Acharya Karamveer has left the Divya Yog Mandir Trust and is practising his mission individually and separately at Bombay.) Swami Ramdev's TV programs and Yog camps have proved to be immensely popular. Attendance at his yog camps has been quoted as being up to 20,000 people. Among the many locations, Swamiji was invited and has conducted a yog camp at the Rashtrapati Bhavan - the residence of the President of India also. His TV program is broadcast in several continents including Africa, Australia, Asia, Europe and America. Executives at the TV channel carrying Swami Ramdev's program have reported immense demand for the show. Viewership is quoted as being 20 million regular viewers. Followers of these programs have claimed relief from a variety of ailments such as blood pressure, elevated blood sugar, spondylitis, hepatitis and obesity. One of the factors that differentiates Swami Ramdev is his emphasis on teaching and making available the practice of Pranayama for the masses. This is different from other yoga teachers who place more emphasis on asanas (yog postures).Comprehensive video demonstration of Pranayam Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, a world-renowned spiritual leader is quoted as saying "If an individual can be credited with reviving yog in this country (India), it is solely Swami Ramdev. Yoga can cure even fatal diseases and Swami Ramdev has definitely proved it time and again. Swami Ramdev has spread yog to such an extent that sooner or later, one has to embrace it. Patanjali Yog Peeth Swami Ramdev's flagship project, the Patanjali Yog Peeth (PYP) Trust, was inaugurated on August 6, 2006. Its aim is to build the world's largest center for Ayurveda and Yoga that includes facilities for treatment, research and a teaching university[3][4]. The trust, most notably, offers free treatment to those who cannot afford. For all other, the treatment is at lesser costs than hospitals elsewhere. Through PYP, Swami Ramdev continues to work with various institutions and medical organizations in an effort to study and improve yoga's effectiveness in working against diseases like diabetes, hypertension, obesity, etc.
