As part of the industry requirement, annual health check-ups were compulsory for the staff. In preparation for this, he went to his family doctor for a routine visit and found that his cholesterol was quite high. The doctor said, “I am prescribing a pill to help you to lower the cholesterol”.

“Lifelong,” was the doctor’s reply.
This was the time the Captain decided that he had to do something about his health, as he did not want to take the pill all his life. Having joined ships at the age of fifteen, he had been smoking cigarettes for a long time - nearly thirty years now. He then remembered a fellow ship mate, who, knowing his previous attempts at quitting smoking, had recommended The Yoga Institute to help him lead a better life. That very day he went to The Yoga Institute and enrolled himself for the 7-Day Health Camp.

कर्तव्य की भावना से कार्य में उत्कृष्ठता (excellence)
क ई तरह की व्यवस्थाएँ हैं, जो हमें सचेत करती हैं कि हमें क्या करना है। माता-पिता, समाज, कानून आदि के प्रति हमारे कुछ उत्तरदायित्व होते हैं, कर्तव्य व व्यवहार के कुछ नियम होते हैं जिनका हमें पूर्ण रूप से पालन करना होता है, परन्तु बहुत से लोग अपने कर्तव्यों के प्रति लापरवाह होते हैं, उन्हें अपने कर्तव्य पालन करना पसंद नहीं है ।
