The only true security that can be found in this world lies
in giving love. |

From an early age, it was apparent that Sri
Sri Ravi Shankar was destined to lead a spiritual life. Even
as a very young child, he was often found absorbed in meditation.
At the age of four, his parents were surprised to discover
him spontaneously reciting the Bhagavad Gita. Later on, in
school, he would tell his friends, “People are waiting for
me all over the world. I am going to visit them one day.”
By the age of seventeen he had completed his traditional education
in both Vedic and modern science. In 1982, Sri Sri (pronounced,
“Shree Shree”) began to teach the Sudarshan Kriya, a powerful
breathing technique that eliminates stress and brings one
completely into the present moment. Today, the Sudarshan Kriya
technique is taught in more than 130 countries as part of
the Art of Living Course.

Millions of people around the world have experienced
physical and emotional healing from these programs, which eliminate
stress and create a sense of belonging.
Sri Sri is the founder of the Art of Living Foundation,
a United Nations NGO (Non-Governmental Organization), and is the
inspiration behind numerous humanitarian organizations focused on
service and the promotion of human values. “Service is the expression
of joy and love,” says Sri Sri. “Ask yourself, ‘How can I be useful
to those around me and to the whole world?’ Then your heart starts
to blossom and a completely new level of life begins.” Today, Sri
Sri speaks in thirty to forty countries a year, reminding us that
the great spiritual traditions have common goals and values. He
encourages people from all religions and cultural traditions to
come together and celebrate. His love, practical wisdom, and wholehearted
dedication to service inspires people everywhere. He brings a whole
new dimension to spirituality, infusing it with a sense of celebration
and joy. Through him, you can see the infinite; he is limitless
compassion and grace. To know Sri Sri is to be touched by his childlike
simplicity and joy. In his presence, one experiences a profound
silence that is beyond words.
Joy, love, playfulness, poetry, deep wisdom, and a twinkle of mischief
have all come together as Sri Sri Ravi Shankar.
