from London on Monday. The 65-year-old Yogi is undertaking a 100-day motorcycle journey to raise
awareness and enact policy changes on soil extinction. Riding 30,000 kilometers through 27 countries,
Sadhguru will cross three continents to draw attention to the direst ecological concern of our
generation – rapid soil extinction.

effort put forward by Sadhguru on the topic of Saving the Soil will make an impression on the people

taken with a great effort to protect this soil will surely go to people from all walks of life. I hope this
will lead to a great renaissance and soil revolution. So my regards and congratulations to this
movement. Thanks”
