You have been witness to the fact that for the welfare of humanity, through the relentless and powerful efforts of Yog Rishi Swami Ramdev ji, yoga has reached the whole world — from “Haridwar to every doorstep” — and has proven to be a boon for mankind.
In the same spirit, Acharya Prasanna Sagar ji Maharaj, through his unparalleled continuous fast of 557 days (and more than 3,500 fasts till date), has earned the revered distinction of “Upvaas Sadhana Shiromani.”
Now, these two great visionaries of the age have resolved to begin the “One Fast Every Month” mega campaign for public welfare, so that humanity may be uplifted through the all-accomplishing great mantra of fasting.
