One of my students who has been HIV positive for nine years and who has been practising yoga, meditation and amaroli since October last year, is now testing negative! But, of course, this kind of information is only being circulated amongst us, because nobody is going to make any money from somebody who practises pawanmuktasana, yoga nidra, and drinks his own urine.
So, any of you who are HIV positive or who work with this group of people – take courage, open your heart and trust. Perhaps we can start to work some miracles in this area also.
Having said that, I must tell you that several of these dear people have in fact died in the last year. I have been lucky enough to be with them throughout this process and they have assured me that yoga and meditation helped them in their last hours to face death with calmness, clarity and awareness. I have spent time with dying people, chanting the mantra Aum together, and they have been allowing themselves to leave this body calmly, quietly and consciously.
