Quotes about Ramdev

• Swami Ramdev basically belongs to the sanatan Vedic dharma. Swami Dayanand Saraswati’s book, ‘Satyarth Prakash’ filled his childhood with enlightenment after which he refused to study in the English system and chose to study in a Gurukul. Just like Swami Dayanand Saraswati, Swami Ramdev also called for public welfare and a retreat towards the Indian saints’ knowledge-tradition and Vedic tradition. Swami Ramdev says, “My inspiration has been Vedas, Upnishads, Geeta and Yogdarshan.”
