February 13, 2025 6:13 PM

The body is a temple of diseases, such is the nature of the material body. The practice of yoga helps in the health of the mind, body and emotions. But, Krsna Consciousness teaches how to solve all types of diseases. Yoga means union of the soul with the Supersoul. The body functions because the soul is in it. The soul is very small.

Good fortune materializes in a person’s life when he or she associates with a devotee. Ramacandra blesses the person so that he or she may attain Krsna.
