Sahaja Yoga in the workplace: a practical story about how Sahaja Yoga can improve the working environment  
Dr. Rai's presentation detailed how Sahaja Yoga meditation and the clearing of subtle energy centers could prevent and cure High Blood Pressure and Ischaemic Heart disease, Bronchial Asthma, Idiopathic Epilepsy, Migraine and a host of other psychosomatic diseases. Talking about the role of Sahaja Yoga in Cancer, Prof. Rai said that Sahaja Yoga Meditation makes our immune system stronger and thereby could prevent the occurrence of cancer in human beings. Many cases of cancer have been healed and the life span of cancer patients prolonged as compared to a group where no Sahaja Yoga support was available.

Prof. Rai is treating cases of incurable diseases from all over the world at the International Research and Health Center, New Bombay, India with remarkable success. The center is unique in the world, diagnosing and treating patients by Vibratory Awareness, a subtle understanding developed through Sahaja Yoga meditation, of the energies which underlie the functioning of the body's various systems. Prof. Rai also showed a video recording of interview with patients from USA, UK, Mexico, Germany, Brazil, Russia, India etc. who were treated at the center and were healed.

Shri Mataji Nirmala DeviSahaja Yoga which founded in 1970 by Dr. Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, awakens a dormant primordial energy located at the base of the spine for the purpose of healing mind, body, and spirit. The daily ten minute meditation program is currently practiced in over 75 countries with dramatic, clinically tested results.

"This is a breakthrough for the cure of psychosomatic diseases and, more importantly, it is a culminating step in our spiritual ascent to cosmic consciousness" explained Dr. Rai who is Emeritus Professor at Mahatma Gandhi Mission Medical College, New Bombay and also the Director of the International Sahaja Yoga Research and Health Center, New Bombay, India founded in 1996 by Dr. Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi. Dr. Rai also explained that Sahaja Yoga is offered without any charge. "It's impossible to put a dollar value on an energy which already belongs to us", said Dr. Rai. "This is an ancient knowledge and by practicing it we can achieve physical, mental, social, and spiritual health as defined by the World Health Organization", he concluded.

NIH host, George Patrick, Ph.D, Chief of Recreational and Rehabilitation Therapy, thanked Dr. U.C. Rai for his excellent presentation and explained why Sahaja Yoga, besides tackling health problems from stress to cardiovascular disease, was important to the work of the research giant. Calling Sahaja Yoga "complimentary medicine", Dr. Patrick spoke of the NIH's understanding of the necessity to continue studying the mind-body effect in healing and introducing effective new methods. "NIH believes in energy medicine and complimentary medicines and sees the powerful role of spirituality in the healing process. Sahaja Yoga is fine for prevention and good health", he said. "Sometimes healing doesn't necessarily mean a cure, but it does mean making people whole. Sahaja Yoga helps that process along and we like what we see", he concluded.
