Devotee:
Pronam (Salutations), Gurudev.
Guru Shyama Khyapa:
Pronam, my son. Please, sit.
Devotee:
Gurudev, today our YouTube channel, Guptasadhak Shyama Khepa, has reached a significant milestone. After nearly a year and a half-
Guru Shyama Khyapa:
Almost a year and a half, yes.
Devotee:
-and after posting roughly 400 videos and navigating many ups and downs, we have finally reached 50,000 subscribers. Could you please share a few words on this achievement?
Guru Shyama Khyapa:
There isn't much to say, other than the fact that we started Guptasadhak Shyama Khepa on June 2nd. It took us about a year and a half to reach 50,000 subscribers. While 50,000 people have subscribed, the total views across the channel have reached 58 lakhs (5.8 million). 58 lakh people have viewed our content. Among those...
Devotee:
There were also several live sessions.
Guru Shyama Khyapa:
Yes, we did some live sessions. Including those, the total video count is close to 400. It's definitely around 400. I want to express my heartfelt thanks to the viewers who watch my videos. I offer them my respect and salutations. It is through their support that we have reached 50,000 subscribers today.
Guru Shyama Khyapa:
However, compared to the total number of people who have watched our content, this number is quite small. 58 lakh people watched, yet we only have 50,000 subscribers. You can see the gap-it's quite large; we are still far behind. I would like to request the public who watch my videos to please subscribe in greater numbers. The channel is performing well, even though we don't have high-end equipment. We are running it in a very traditional, simple way. As I mentioned, we've produced over 400 episodes since we began in June 2019.
Guru Shyama Khyapa:
In any case, I consider it a great achievement that 50,000 viewers have subscribed. But when you consider that 58 lakh people have watched, the subscriber count isn't even 1% of the viewership.
Devotee:
Not even 1%.
Guru Shyama Khyapa:
Exactly. That is why I am requesting those who watch my videos-if nothing else, please subscribe so that the channel can become stronger and more impactful.
Devotee:
And Gurudev, our channel's reach is global. People watch from all over the world. Many travel from abroad just to meet you, in addition to people coming from all over India.
Guru Shyama Khyapa:
Yes, that's true. People come from Canada, France, Germany, England, and the USA. Many have come to receive initiation (Diksha), while others come for help with their work or personal issues. These things have certainly happened. I won't say we haven't achieved anything; we have. My only slight regret is the ratio-58 lakh viewers but only 50,000 subscribers. People are watching, but they aren't subscribing. I'm not saying all 58 lakhs should subscribe, but there should be a reasonable percentage. Right now, it's less than 1%.
Devotee:
Well, viewers, you heard it. This is a very happy moment for us as our channel finally reaches the 50,000-subscriber milestone. Please continue to watch and subscribe so we can progress to 100,000 and eventually reach one million subscribers. Pronam, Gurudev.
Guru Shyama Khyapa:
Pronam, my son.
