A fragrant flower can only spread fragrance. Sometimes people behave badly because that is what they have inside. Can a happy person go and hit somebody? Impossible.

[Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar @Gurudev]

Decoding the known is science. Exploring the unknown is spirituality.

[Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar @Gurudev]

The test of your peace is only when there are obstacles. Be thankful for them.

[Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar @Gurudev]

The name “Krishna” signifies absolute attraction. To overcome the illusions of the material world, one must find something far more captivating to focus on. Krishna is that ultimate attraction at every stage of life: a mischievous companion for children, a talented friend for the youth, a valiant hero for the courageous, “Yogeshwar” for seekers, a master strategist for leaders, and the source of ultimate wisdom for elders.

इस समय नेपाल बड़ी आपदा का सामना कर रहा है। लापता यात्री और क्षति के बीच, हमें उन परिवारों के साथ खड़ा होना है। सब मिलकर प्रार्थना करें कि उन्हें शक्ति मिले।

Sharing this excerpt from a whatsapp message because it is important 🙏

Gen Z or anyone else who goes for a holiday to J&K, Ladakh, North East etc must know...

It is a *strategically sensitive region* where tourism exists alongside security,

*not the other way around!!*

Military convoys do not roll because some officer woke up that morning and thought,

*“Let us ruin somebody’s holiday...”*

Movements are planned.
Routes are coordinated.
Timings matter.
Logistics matter.

*The mountains are not merely a backdrop for photographs.*

Those mountains have names written into military history.

*SOLDIERS FOUGHT THERE.… MANY OF THEM PAID THE ULTIMATE PRICE*

527 soldiers gave their lives capturing the Kargil heights so that you can move there freely.

And all these 527 were also Gen Z*

And soldiers *still serve there*.

Do not stand in front of a soldier and say:

*“I PAY YOUR SALARY.”*

No - the belief that money paid to the Republic somehow places the Republic’s uniform beneath you… is totally wrong.

*IT DOESN’T.*

Paying income tax does not give you command authority over the Armed Forces.

And that certainly does not make national security subordinate to your holiday plans.

You waited few hours.

*Somebody else stood watch for months.*

You missed part of an itinerary.

*Somebody else missed birthdays, anniversaries, children growing up, and home.*

And while you eventually drove away from Kargil,

*HE STAYED.*

So no.

*You do not pay his salary.*

*You pay your taxes.*

*The soldier pays his own taxes and also pays for your security:*

*IN A CURRENCY FAR MORE EXPENSIVE THAN MONEY.*

Jai Hind Ki Sena 🇮🇳

The courage and determination of Jharkhand’s youth are commendable. Their concerns are legitimate and deserve to be heard. I urge them to end their fast and engage in dialogue. With mutual trust and goodwill, a meaningful solution can be found.

We should not exit from this world without finding out who we are and where we came from. This is very important. — @Gurudev

Nothing in the world can bother you as much as your own mind, I tell you. In fact, others seem to be bothering you, but it’s not others, it’s your own mind. — @Gurudev

The people of Macedonia have been inviting me for the past 23 years, and this time I was able to fulfill their wishes.

[Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar @Gurudev]

Sustainable growth is possible only when ecology is protected. Only a conscious person can find the balance between development and the preservation of nature. Someone who is anxious, stressed, or depressed doesn’t even take care of themselves. You can’t expect them to care for nature.

Every act in life is either an expression of happiness or an expectation of it. For the wise, it is an expression, not an expectation.
