He put on some chants or Bhajans and then he meditates at that time, which is almost 25 minutes. And the second time he practices it is for sleeping in the night. Additionally, after his workout, sometimes he goes into this sequence of yoga asanas called Padmasadhana, which is a kind of yoga, but it is also meditative. So this, basically, is his daily routine.
