00:00The main reason why I am here is because of Peer Parmananpuriji Maharaj.
00:11So when I first went to Datta Karan Ujjain, he told my wife and I that we belong to him
00:20and that we have spent time in past life with him before and that we belong there.
00:27So that since then we have been going there and then eventually Peer passed away and then
00:38after my wife passed after in 2015 and then in 2016 is when I took sannyas.
00:49My Guruji Anandpuriji Maharaj and my other gurus that I have.
01:00Michael what do you want to say that you are here? How are you feeling in Kumbh?
01:07I feel a communion here with all Babas and the people who are coming to get blessings from these great Mahatmas.
01:18You know, it's a big tradition here that's been going on for who knows how long, so long.
01:28And it's just amazing, you don't see this anywhere else.
01:32Millions of people here to commune with God and through everyone and everything here.
01:46Yes, yes, but I've been to many Kumbh Melas. This is my third Maha Kumbh here.
01:53And I've been to Hardwar Kumbh before and all over India.
02:03I had a hotel in Goa for six years with my wife.
02:08And yes, I love India. I feel I belong here.
02:16So you continue to do the same?
02:18Yes, as long as I'm alive, I will.
02:23Yeah, it's my life. I don't have any pants. I have none.
02:30In my clothes, in America, in India, I look the same. No change.
02:38Is there any goal in your mind you want to achieve?
02:42No. No goal. I am Mokshapuri.
02:51This is my goal. I am Mokshapuri.
02:58No problem.
03:03I don't know. I don't know this word. I don't know.
03:09I know that all is one and I have no fear.
03:21So I don't know. I don't know what to tell you.
03:25I don't want to claim anything.
03:28Is there anyone in your family that you are connected to?
03:33No, I talk to my family, yes, in America.
03:36Because in America it's a different tradition.
03:40People don't know about all these things.
03:44So slowly, slowly they're learning.
03:48But you can't expect everybody to know this.
03:51And you can't expect everybody to be vegetarian.
03:54But after some time, this consciousness is growing
03:59and people are learning how to be vegetarian
04:03and how to practice ahimsa, non-violence,
04:08and words and action.
04:11They are also changing, right?
04:13Yes, yes, people are changing.
04:15And there are so many ashrams in America now.
04:20Where I live in New Mexico also is Neem Kurli Baba Ashram in Taos.
04:29And so there's a big Hanuman temple there.
04:32And many Indian people come there from all over Texas
04:36and Colorado and Arizona, New Mexico.
04:40And so, you know, it's...
04:43And also Indian people bringing this culture to America also
04:48because many, many Indian Americans now,
04:55many big tech industry in America, all from India.
