He again urged the gathering to meditate in whatever forms they believe in, be it as a Christian, a Muslim, a Bhudist, an ancestoral worshipper, etc so as to refocus the body, soul, and mind.
He concluded by tasking all participants to undertake frequent energy audits of themselves to see their status whether or not they are heading for an energy crisis.
