Dr. Archana S, Regional Head- Clinical Services, Dr. Agarwals Eye Hospital, stated that “Biological sex differences affect ocular structure, gene expression, and other functions of the eye that influence eye health. Hence, it is important for women to undergo regular eye checkups to detect any eye disease or disorder at an early stage.”

Dr. Archana S also added, “About 80% of those affected by autoimmune issues are women. Eye inflammation is one of the many possible effects of autoimmune diseases such as lupus, psoriasis, Reiter’s syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, and uveitis. Graves’ disease, an autoimmune disorder, which results in overproduction of the thyroid hormone affects more women than men. Thyroid eye diseases affect 16 in 100,000 women, while only 3 in the male population of equal size.”

Dr. Agarwals Eye Hospital has made special arrangements for screening and diagnosing such eye diseases and disorders that women are more susceptible to. The hospital’s month-long awareness campaign aims to educate women about the risks of eye diseases that arise from factors exclusive to them, such as hormonal surges during pregnancy and menopause, and susceptibility to autoimmune diseases.

Women can register for a free eye checkup by contacting 080-48193435. This is an excellent opportunity for women to take care of their eye health and receive expert advice from experienced eye care professionals.

Join us for Siddha Yoga Program to experience awakening of Kundalini Shakti and manifestation of Siddha Yoga with the divine blessings of Gurudev Shri Ram Lal Ji Siyag

In Current scenario the entire world is eagerly looking towards India to reveal the real meaning of Yog. Entire humanity is in a deep dilemma as to why science at its pinnacle cannot solve the problems of mankind India from where the real Yogic Philosophy has originated is rising again to enlighten the world with the real meaning of Yog.

Despite great advancements in physical sciences, humanity is not at peace. On the contrary, conflicts and unrest have increased all over the world. Growth in material wealth has also failed to provide lasting peace and happiness to humanity. Governments have been spending a lot of public money to amass sophisticated weapons and bombs, but peace remains a mirage.

Violence and greed are spreading like contagious diseases. Scientists and religious leaders have surrendered before ‘material wealth’ and are unable to contain rising “Tamasic” tendencies among people. “Satvic” (virtuous) people are finding it increasingly difficult to live peacefully in the worsening scenario. Peace comes from within but due to lack of spiritual awakening, everyone is searching for it outside. As a result, they remain unhappy and restless.

But there is hope for humanity in the form of Indian Yoga Philosophy. Vedanata + Yoga can provide permanent solutions to all the problems troubling the humanity.

Gurudev Shri Ramlal ji Siyag, Founder & Patron of Adhyatma Vigyan Satsang Kendra, Jodhpur (Rajasthan), had made it his life mission to establish peace and unity in the world by completely destroying the ‘tamasic” tendencies within people.

Guru Siyag’s Siddha Yoga is an easy-to-do meditation and chanting based Yoga. It is based on the philosophy of Yoga (Nath Mat) as propounded by the ancient sage “Matsyendra Nath Ji” and codified later by another “Maharshi Patanjali” in a treatise titled ‘Yoga Sutra’ several thousand years ago. In this Yoga Siddha Guru awakens the Mother Power Kundalini (which lies in a dormant position in every human body) by shaktipat initiation.

After Shaktipat Initiation during meditation on Sadgurudev Siyag’s image, this awakened Shakti induces automatic/involuntary yogic movements in the body of the practitioner and gradually frees his/her body of all physical, mental and spiritual diseases, including the ailments which are considered incurable by modern medical science. During this purification of body, mind and spirit, thousands of patients have been cured of deadly diseases. and now live a healthy life.

To give a practical demonstration of universal effects of Gurudev Siyag’s Spiritual Meditation, a large group meditation program is being organised on March 05, 2023. From Evening – 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM at Kings Court, Palace Ground, Bengaluru.
