Yes, even i have heard of this Sri Sri Ravishankar, seen some worshops being held in my city, also managed to catch one discourse of him in Aastha channel. <BR/><BR/>I think i am reflecting your point of view and we are not parallel lines after all! This is what i meant when I said about the changing winds and world taking a note of us in the coming days. And am happy to know that this particular organisation is turning into a force.<BR/><BR/>As far as my own life is concerned, i intend to have my own philosophy, i intend to create my own light house to for when i lose direction. I do want to take the good things from everywhere but do not intend becoming a disciple of anyone, not atleast in the near future and definetley not with my present mindset. <BR/><BR/>Thank you very much Varadha. I would be happier to know more about you. Your comments are always welcome.The Soul Doctorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06282012741855216292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12647652.post-1115955683328374552005-05-12T20:41:00.000-07:002005-05-12T20:41:00.000-07:00Hi Karhik,Got to your blog from another friend's b...Hi Karhik,<BR/><BR/>Got to your blog from another friend's blog. Its an interesting point you have that Hinduism has not been imparted and largely remained a legacy of select people. And did not yet catch up..<BR/><BR/>On the contrary, there's a whirlpool of activities initiated by Sri Sri Ravishankar through His Art of Living. The organization conducts basic workshop all based on the infinite wisdom, Knowledge (yes the very essence of our spiritual heritage, Vedas). And one the most compelling factors is a Kriya (a special breathing technique that upon practice, aims to gradually reveal the "true nature of our selves" - (realized, wise) people refer to that as Divinity. <BR/><BR/>I read a few quotes by Sri Sri, heard a discourse and discussed about their workshop and I discovered, my friend that it is nothing short of a global force. What is pleasing is the outreach of this origanization - the emphasis on service as a vehicle that appears to be one of factors to reach out at the global level. **As of now the organization is in 140+ countries (even in Afrcia, Iraq,..); 1000s (20, 30..) of villages have benefited in India, well-ness program for prisoners and other welfare aspects all in a short span of 25 yrs. The amazing factor appears to be the Kriya - its based on our own Vedic tradition but delivered in a religion agnostic way. <BR/><BR/>I am thrilled to know (as told by an attendee) of Sri Sri's discourse that people atleast the present Indian gen. is headed for a full-cirlce. Moving forward to abosrb and dissipate the Knowledge better, faster than before. Sacred texts talk about the cosmic "Pranavam" the essence of life and I was totally stunned to hear back these from Sri Sri's messages, his kriya....I guess the realized Masters experience this all the time.<BR/><BR/>Shortly not only you my friend, but many of us will live to see the day, when the afore-mentioned activities and Wisdom carriers educate us and the world. <BR/><BR/>Jai Gurudev!!<BR/>(** - ArtofLiving.org; please do verify my personal viewpoints, independently as I don't belong to this organization but looking forward to it.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
