#WATCH | Switzerland: On Tirupati Laddu Prasadam row, spiritual leader and founder of The Art of Living, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar says, "We have read in history books how in 1857, the sepoy mutiny happened. And now we see how the sentiments of Hindus are deeply wounded by this laddu. This is something which cannot be pardoned, it cannot be forgiven. It's malicious and it is the height of greed of people who are involved in this process. So, they need to be punished severely. All their assets should be seized & they should be put in jail, whoever is remotely involved in this process...We need to check not just the laddu but every food product. What about the ghee that is available in the market? Is anyone checking what they are putting in it? All those who adulterate food & put the mark that it is vegetarian and put any sort of non-veg stuff in it, should be very strictly punished...For the Temple management, we need to see that it is under the supervision of saints, swamis and spiritual leaders...We need to have a committee of spiritual leaders - both north and south, they should oversee. Let there be a person from the government side as well but he has to be playing a minor role. But major decisions, supervision and everything should be done by religious boards like SGPC, like the Muslim body, like Christians body..."

When your will is in alignment with the will of the universe, you say “It’s free will.” When your will is in opposition to the universal will, you say “It’s my destiny.” It’s just the direction of your thought that determines free will or destiny!

The drive has led to the increased water storage capacity of 2,500 Trillion litres, and is an excellent example of active community participation for river rejuvenation. Kudos to their efforts!
Excellent interaction with @Ruediger_Krech at @WHO .We agreed that time tested solutions and advocacy for #mentalwellbeing is the need of the hour. Excited to be exploring these together.
Maha Rudra Homa was performed earlier this morning in presence of Gurudev @SriSri at The Art of Living International Center, Bengaluru.
In this homa, Lord Shiva is invoked in two kalash signifying the honouring of masculine & feminine aspects of divinity.
Its not the pain that is bothering us; it is the thought of the pain that bothers one. Its not the situation that one is troubled with, but the fear of the situation that is troubling one. - Gurudev @SriSri#WisdomCookies
20 years of armed conflict has gone in vain. The humanitarian crisis in #Afghanistan is a blot on humanity. Muscle and money power alone cannot bring change. Mindset has to be addressed. I had written this article 10 years back. You may want to read it.
