 India scripted history to follow U.S. China and Russia entering the elite space club you have renowned yogi Satguru Jaggi Vasudev speaking to Republic TV in this conversation when the Chandrayaan 2 launcher of a happen listen into this conversation as how he lauded the efforts of our scientists when it comes to making this huge project and this program when it comes to Chandrayaan 2 possible in a short span of time. Satguru at the launch and a lot of people were very curious to know what you were doing there but I want to start by giving you the opportunity of talking about your experience. This must have been a spectacular experience for you share that with us and also how you came to be being there. It is a spectacular success for the Indian space scientists ISRO as an organization is a highly committed organization. It is always I've been there quite a few times and it is always a great joy to see the level of commitment and the simplicity with which they function and above all the brilliant scientists of our space research organizations as simple as they are and what they have achieved and you know I've been making some effort to understand the complexities of how it is done is just mind-boggling but the way it is done is really really incredible and today is a huge a massive step for India and I hope every Indian gets to know and celebrate this great success. But sir I want to know from you what is it that you were really interacting with the scientific community there about was there you know was there a chat that you held with them of the last couple of days what is it that you told them? I've been involved with them I was there on 15th of July also so the important thing is whether you're a scientist or a doctor or a news anchor whatever you're essentially a human being so every human being is relevant to me and I'm relevant to them all right all right cryptic answer there but overall was there some butterflies in your stomach as well were you nervous too today? No I've kind of mastered those butterflies long time ago they they are just in my brains they don't fly in my stomach how big do you think this achievement is for India especially with the entire world looking at it? This is very significant as you know it is we are the only fourth nation to manage this till it is not over there is still a very delicate mannering to be done a large part of it is still not over actually it is in the next 15 days till 7th of September that these manipulations will happen which are very delicate and there are many complexities and challenges out there but this launch happened way better than they had expected that what they were expecting is some 39,000 kilometers for the apogee but it went to 45,000 which gave them an extra boost or availability of 12 for the remaining operations which puts them in a comfortable position for what they wish to do which is really wonderful for them but it's an incredible team out there it's something I still want to know I would say our news channels and everybody should yes please tell me sorry there's a lag between us which is why it is coming across like this but I want to know from you how does a man of spirituality meet with the scientific community spirituality and science meeting today with your presence there well that's not a new affair because spiritual process is a science in its own right it is just that one is exploring the external nature of creation another is exploring the internal nature of who we are so we always been close together that way nothing new about that hmm okay uh any so this lag you know would you want to wish something from this mission yes go ahead go ahead I'm sorry no I said the this time lag is not because I'm in the orbit I'm in Mumbai just confirming to you we'll get even if you weren't in orbit I think Isra will do a fine job of reducing the time lag for us they're that good but I do want to understand from you I don't know if you've seen some ugly politics has broken out over the launch of the Chandrayaan 2 as well you know with the Congress saying that the credit grows to Nehru because it is during his time that the ISRO and other organizations were launched Chandrayaan 1 came into being under Manmohan Singh do you want to say anything on that is it unfortunate to see this kind of politics on a day like today when the entire country is celebrating as one very unfortunate instead of giving our scientists the due we get into this kind of useless debates it is very very important every citizen in this country please focus on acknowledging the success as of this nation whether it's in science sport art music or even spirituality please learn to acknowledge that because these things need momentum nation needs momentum not all the time claiming who was responsible for this well whoever is the prime minister has to do what he has to do for the country I don't see why these things should be ascribed to anybody because the scientific development the industrial and business development happens at any time at any time it happens so if it happened during a certain political era it doesn't mean anything because it's the work of the scientists of course political determination is needed right of course political determination is needed and right budget and other things are necessary but that is not the important aspect what is most important is it is the scientific community who's achieved this I don't think any prime minister ever claimed that I did it so let not these people go about claiming whether it belongs to congress or BJP it is not like that it is it is it belongs to India and that's what is wonderful about it absolutely finally just a couple of questions more Sadhguru I want to understand from you how you know how you felt about all right I believe we are just connecting with the Sadhguru in just a bit but of course he's sending out a greater message of how you know there was a lot of work that was done by the scientific community and they are the really should be center stage right now huge achievement from them and when I get him back I do want to understand from him the message that it sends about the perseverance of our scientific community because remember just a week ago there was a delay there was a setback K. Sivan all right Sadhguru is back with us sir if you can hear me K. Sivan you saw chief talked about today how in the 24 hours after the last delay happened on July 15 mind boggling work had to go in to kind of not just you know do the launch again earlier today but also do it in such a spectacular fashion shows the perseverance of our scientific community and then and their brilliance extraordinary level of commitment and hard work and of course brilliance without this this won't happen at a time like this it'll be disgraceful if people are fighting who should get the credit the credit goes to India and let all of us learn to say I enjoy that and celebrate that thank you so one final question this is a moment that inspires a whole new generation I think one of the biggest takeaways from the fact that Chandrayaanthu mission happened it happened in the way it happened even you know received a slight delay is a great inspiring moment for a whole generation of scientifically curious children in India do you think this is going to propel India into a you know a greater scientific age it definitely will inspire the younger generation in a huge way myself at this age I'm so excited about it that I had to go there and spend a few hours and come back I'm sure the children and the youth of this nation are hugely inspired by this definitely it will spawn the future scientists space scientists on maybe astronauts who will go beyond the boundaries of the planet in so many different ways we don't know what more things are due for us but definitely though we are not the number one country in this aspect in Asia living China we are the second country doing this and with the kind of budgets that our scientists are doing this is truly truly remarkable and incredible no nation has done it with such low budgets as we have done it this shows how brilliant they are and as you said Kalashchivan mentioned that in 24 hours I was talking to all the teams who were involved there what they did in those 24 hours is almost like a superhuman kind of effort it's truly truly fantastic because once the leakage happened they had to unload all the fuel and again fix this and reload this and have everything calibrated and enormous amount of tests to be done everything through in 24 hours is a really a superhuman feat
