More than 180 million people around the world has diabetes as per the World Health Organization (WHO). It is estimated that in 20 years this figure would be doubled to more than 360 million people. One person out of four is a diabetic in the UAE, as per the studies conducted by the Imperial College London Diabetes Centre (ICLDC). And it has been found that more than 50 percent of the people living with diabetes are not aware of this.
 
In order to increase the awareness about diabetes, a public health awareness campaign known as Diabetes Knowledge Action is being conducted and the WALK UAE 2009 is a part of this campaign which will take place at the Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi Yas Island on November 20th. This will also mark the World Diabetes Day which falls on the November 14th and held at the behest of the International Diabetes Federation and United Nations.
 
30 minutes of walking is advised for preventing the onset of the disease and also to manage diabetes. This is the basis of the WALK UAE 2009 which is hoped to generate awareness about the management of diabetes.
 
Although diabetes is not curable it can be controlled by injecting insulin into the body of the patient and aiding in keeping the blood glucose levels within normal levels.
 
It might be a coincidence that a team has arrived from India in the UAE this week who brings in a new lifestyle of hope to the people of UAE, based on the traditional wisdom of India passed on by the invaluable "Rishi" tradition, by which diabetes along with a number of other chronic diseases like arthritis, asthma, low and high blood pressure, cardiac and kidney diseases etc can be completely eliminated. This team is led by Guruji Rishi Prabhakar, an eminent scientist, engineer, environmentalist and educationist who has transformed the lives of innumerous people around the world with his new lifestyle of hope.
 

 
After receiving masters in aeronautical engineering from the University of Ottawa and completing his M.B.A. from the University Of Western Ontario, Canada he turned his attention to Yoga and did years of research on the subject.
 

 
With his scientific temperament and methodology and familiarity with the busy life of the modern man, he designed a life style program combining the practice of yoga, pranayama, meditation and food habits along with a profound understanding of the self. This lifestyle is being imparted to millions around the world through the Sidha Samadhi Yoga centers enabling those undergoing the program to live a peaceful, happy and healthy life. The program is designed in such a way that this can be practiced in spite of your busy schedule in your day to day life and this in fact has helped this program to gain immense participation and popularity, especially among the expatriate population.
 

 
A cancer research center and a cancer rehabilitation center has been set up along side the Rishi Samskruti Vidya Kendra in Bangalore. As per the research conducted in the cancer research center, 90 percent of cancers are completely curable, Guruji Rishi Prabhakar announced in Dubai. He was addressing the inaugural session of the 5 day "Kaya Kalpa Kriya" program, a new addition to the "Sidha Samadhi Yoga" program. He said that the program has been found successful in the complete reversal of cardiac diseases too. Lifestyle ailments and chronic diseases are also completely cured by the practice of this program. Diabetes can be cured within days of practice. Arthritis, Asthma, High and Low Blood Pressure, Kidney diseases, Ulcers etc can also be completely cured.
 

 
The program is designed to increase the "Prana" which is the "life energy", found abundant in children and which reduces with age. As the Prana reduces your body becomes susceptible to diseases. By the practice of "Kaya Kalpa Kriya", this is reversed. Your body starts to store more and more life energy and after some time, diseases simply cannot remain in your body and you become disease free.
 
This process also brings in silence to your mind and you become peaceful and happy, another element for a happy and long life. "Kaya Kalpa Kriya", as the name suggests, essentially promises longevity and if practiced regularly, immortality.
 
Guruji Rishi Prabhakar is available in the UAE till November 21st. He is accessible at the Sidha Samadhi Yoga Center in Satwa, Dubai. (Tel: 04 3446618)
