Our beloved Ammaji as Editor of Yoga Life always put Lord Vigneshwara, the ‘obstacle to all obstacles’ on the January cover, and we continue the tradition with this colourful image of the Divine Lord. We pray to the benevolent Lord Abhayakaravinayaka to bless us all in the New Year with wellness, happiness, prosperity and success in all our endeavors.
The inner covers highlight memorable moments from the wonderful time we had hosting the Yoga Studies team from the Loyola Marymount University, USA during their study tour of India. The front inner cover depicts special moments during the Indo-US Yoga Chikitsa Symposium at Sri Balaji Vidyapeeth that was graced by the present Vice Chancellor Prof NR Biswas and the past Vice Chancellor and Emeritus Professor Dr KR Sethuraman.

Mandukya Upanishad does not talk about trust or belief in God; rather addresses one’s day to day experience of waking, dreaming and deep sleep and explains the truth based on an experience which is common to all. Thanks to its universal nature, anybody anywhere in the world can appreciate the beauty and the essence of this Upanishad. On the lighter side, since it comprises of only twelve shlokas, it is apt for modern day culture of instant gratification and can be called ‘Self-realization in twelve minutes’.
Through the explanation of the Omkara, this Upanishad bridges the gap between the known and the unknown states of consciousness.
It explains Omkara Upasana or the method of contemplating on Omkara.

He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
