The divine feminine - Sri Sri
TOI, 20th Mar, 2010

The beginning is always associated with feminine energy. While time is
considered male, space is always regarded as being feminine and the whole
universe is a combination of both time and space. You came into the world with
the mother as your creator. The Navratri or nine holy nights in Hindu tradition
- that began this year on March 16 - signifies new beginnings. The season is
one that celebrates the New Year variously as Gudi Padwa, Ugadi and Navroz,
soon after the Moon enters the first part of Aries.

Subject: Do Something Now!!

DSN translates to "Creating a Divine Society - Do Something Now ." It is a
rigorous and transformational course that empowers participants to break
through personal inhibitions and barriers - it gives us inner stability in a
way that no outside event can shake us.

We all have personal barriers, old habits, or inhibitions that hold us back and
keep us from fully participating in life. Yet we all have a deep desire to be
the best we can be - for ourselves, our families, our communities and even the
world around us.

The truth is that those old emotional wounds, self-concepts, attitudes and
fears create a barrier between us and the ability to live our heart's desire.

DSN uses a powerful combination of yoga practice, special meditations,
breathing techniques, group processes, and deep spiritual knowledge to break
through personal barriers.

The power of DSN can give us true liberation, true freedom and personal
empowerment!

This four-day, full-time course, is open to all those who have completed the
Art of Living Course

Dates:8th-11th April 2010(full day)
Teacher:Prasaana Prabhuji
Venue:Mata Rampyari trust hall, 5th Rd., Khar (W).
Course donation: 4000/-

No use in all these talks. Don't go on wasting your energy and time in talking.
Be in silence. A thousand words cannot convey a glance, a look from your eyes.
And even many thousand looks cannot convey one minute of silence. Just stay,
silently.

VACATION

Get Refreshed, Revitalized, and Invigorated

The Art of Living Part II course guides one on a journey deeper into one's
self, enabling the spontaneous integration of life, and wisdom. It offers a
chance to dive deep into genuine relaxation. We need to rest in order to be
more dynamic. However, often we come back from a vacation feeling more
exhausted, and in the need of another one. The Part II course is a vacation in
the truest sense of the word. Complete with silence, meditation, seva
(service), and celebration, it will help one emerge refreshed, revitalized and
invigorated.

Rishi Nityapragyaji needs no introduction to the followers of art of living. He
is one of the senior most and globally renowned faculty of art of living
course. Attending his course is a treat in itself due to his profound knowledge
and wisdom and his lively satsangs.

Campus
The venue of the course, Atul Vidyalya, is situated in a thickly wooded campus
of 24 acres located inside the residential colony of Atul Ltd in Atul, 8 kms
from Valsad which is on the Western Railway between Mumbai and Surat.

The colony is spread out on the foothills of Parnera Hill gently sloping
towards Par river which meets the Arabian Sea about 5 kms away.
The campus is on a mild gradient and utilizes the contours well. It is easily

Subject: Come and Join! Arosa 2010 - An unforgettable Journey towards the Self:
7-14 May 2010

After the absolutely marvelous experience in 2009 it is our great pleasure to
invite you for the second
Journey towards the Self with H.H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar,
7th – 14th May 2010, from Arosa (Switzerland) via Weggis to Bad Antogast
(Germany)!

- Art of Living Part 3 or Part 1 Course
- Sahaj Samadhi Meditation course with Smt. Bhanumathi Narasimhan
- Birthday Celebrations in honor of H.H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
- Extended stay in Arosa!

AND: special commentaries on the Bhagavat Gita!

In the early 1990s, H.H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar gave a series of memorable Art of
Living courses in Switzerland. It was during these courses that His Holiness
spoke on some of the most profound subjects, amazing participants with, for
example, his commentaries on the Patanjali Yoga Sutras, a magnificent stock of
knowledge that is widely published and cherished all over the world.

After many years, His Holiness came in 2009 back to Switzerland and shared
commentaries on the Isha Vâsya Upanishad. This year, Sri Sri will not only
personally preside over the Art of Living Course, but he will also impart new
knowledge: his much-awaited commentaries on the 7th chapter of the Bhagavat
Gita.

Grüezi and Welcome to Switzerland!
Welcome to a rare unique journey to the depths of the Self!

On the request of many the Journey has been extended by one day!
The journey begins with the Art of Living course from 7th - 11th May 2010.
After a day of rest, participants will then proceed on the 12th May to Lake
Luzern, the most beautiful lake in Switzerland, where we will enjoy a unique
boat trip! The journey will then lead participants directly to the European
Centre of the Art of Living Foundation in the Black Forest, where on 13th May
2010 Maha-Satsang celebrations will be launched to mark the 54rd birthday of
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar.

Participants are advised to sign up as soon as possible, as last year the
course was fully booked by middle of April. There are only 480 places available

Life needs a goal, an aim. Imagine you are sitting in a car and your foot is on
the accelerator. You see your home and say "my home, my home" and keep
pressing down on the accelerator. You have to go shopping, you've reached the
shop but your foot is still on the accelerator.

Subject: Health and Happiness workshop in Mansa, Punjab, India

Full time Travelling Teacher (FTTT), Geetanjali Chinnanavar, currently resident
in the sleepy town of Mansa in Punjab has motivated the natives to hold a
Health and Happiness Workshop, ie Pranayam Dhyan Shibir PDS for the Public
Distribution of Grace on 20th, 21st and 22nd of March, 2010 . 6am to 8am with
Shri Kashiji - Dinesh Kashikar, Chem Engg, IIT Mumbai alum.

Mansa residents have also decided to construct a Temple of Knowledge in their
hamlet.

A few days ago, there was a Sri Sri Yoga organised in Mansa at the same venue
where there was a widely publicized folk dance festival a day earlier (by
non-aol local organisers). Only about 150 people turned up for the folk dance
the night before. There was also a drizzle on the day of the Sri Sri Yoga. When
the Sri Sri Yoga kicked off, there were more than 1100 people in it !!!

If you need to contact Geetanjali, you could SMS me with your request at

About Sahaj Samadhi Mediation:

Sahaj means natural, effortless and
Samadhi is a deep meditative state of mind. Sahaj Samadhi is exactly that - a
natural, effortless system of meditation that allows the conscious mind to
settle deeply into the self, thus giving it much needed deep rest. When the
mind settles down it lets go of all tension and stress and centers itself into
the present moment. It is only in the present moment - those moments when the
mind is free from regrets about the past, and anxiety about the future - that
one finds true happiness. In just a few sessions you will learn to tap the
depths of your own nature. Sahaj Samadhi meditation is very easy and enjoyable
and regular daily practice can totally transform the quality of your life.

Lots of Love & Regards
Vaishali Venkatanarayan

Subject: PART 2 With Rishi Nityapragyaji in BELGIUM

What were to happen if we were to drive our car continuously only in the 4th
gear without applying any brakes? Accident right…..

It is very essential to apply the brakes from time to time so that we can have
a safe and enjoyable journey…

Similarly in our lives, so often we are so busy and caught up with our worldly
activities and responsibilities that we take no time for rest. We find that we
are constantly running but our results are not in proportion to our
efforts…..

What is missing ,is that brake!! That deep rest which will revive, refresh and
recharge our batteries…

Do the PART 2 course and experience a true vacation in every sense with Rishi
Nityapragyaji-

You will not be able to escape his charm and warmth….behind which is his very
deep and profound knowledge ….and the masti and the fun too.. A divine
instrument of our master-reflecting him in all aspects!

Dates: 15-18th april (reporting on 14th night)
residential course in Lo-Reninge (Ieper) in a very comfortable hotel….

Special discount till 4 th april only !!!
Also special combination packages for PART 1 +2.

Limited attraction, small attractions here and there---smell, touch, taste,
sight---these are called the vasunas."" The five senses draw you into small,
limited awareness, and not only just enjoying that, but you get entangled in
the mind, thinking about it all the time. "

Subject: WANT TO BE SUCCESSFUL?

Harvard University research shows that the most successul people in the world
attribute 87.5 % of their success to their SOFT SKILLS and only 12.5 % of their
success to their HARD SKILLS !

Hard Skills are Domain Skills (Engineering, Medicine, Science and all of the
other traditional education we spend `decades in acquiring!).

So, how can we begin to acquire the Soft Skills which are essential for real
success ??

Its simple ... just come sit in on an Art of Living Part II (Advance) Course !!
(devised by the Master of Soft Skills, H H Sri Sri RaviShankarji ..)

Book ur seats in advance to avoid last moment rush..

"I found the practice of being silent to be incredibly beneficial for not only
allowing deep relaxation to occur but also as a way to gain insight into my own
thoughts and feelings. I realized just how caught up I was in reliving the past
and obsessing about the future. The course helped me come back to the present
moment where life is truly lived."

Change is the only constant in our lives - Sri Sri
DNA, 14th March, 2010

In life, everything is impermanent. Turn back and see - all that you did is
like a dream now. You cried, wept, got angry and became agitated. But that
didn't stay with you forever. All has passed, the whole thing is finished. In
future, you may become the mayor of the town, or rise to the highest position,
or have a lot of wealth. So what? That will also pass. Nothing stays forever.

Subject: LA Upanishads: 150 seats left!

As you may be knowing, we are inaugurating our new Art of Living Center in Los
Angeles, California.
This momentous occasion will be graced by knowledge from Guruji on the
Upanishads.
There are only 150 seats left as I write this email. Wanted to let everyone
know before it's sold out.
Register at: http://www.artoflivingla.org

April 15-17, 2010 - The Upanishads are the very essence of the Vedas, the
world's most ancient scripture focusing on the topic of individual Self and
universal spirit. They represent the highest in Eastern philosophical thought
and contain the most sublime truths of human existence.

In this historic inaugural event for the Art of Living Foundation's Los
Angeles Center, His Holiness Sri Sri Ravi Shankar will, for the first time,
unveil the often inaccessible philosophy of the Upanishads in a series of talks
suited to the spiritual seeker, the scholar, and the layperson alike. These
talks are aimed to bring out the wisdom of the Upanishads so as to make them
relevant to our lives today. The result is practical wisdom that transforms the
listeners' points of view and instills a deep sense of peace and happiness
into our lives.

His Holiness's discourses are characterized by a depth of knowledge expounded
with a pleasing simplicity of language. Millions worldwide have been inspired
by the facile yet profound wisdom contained in his teachings and the deep joy
of his presence, both of which have attracted audiences from diverse walks of
life.

You are invited to this historic opportunity to 'sit close' (the literal
translation of the Upanishads) and attend this rare commentary as a collective
celebration of spirit at the Los Angeles Art of Living Center in its inaugural
event.

Jai Guru Dev

Subject: Come and Join! Arosa 2010 - An unforgettable Journey towards the Self:
7-14 May 2010

After the absolutely marvelous experience in 2009 it is our great pleasure to
invite you for the second
Journey towards the Self with H.H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar,
7th – 14th May 2010, from Arosa (Switzerland) via Weggis to Bad Antogast
(Germany)!

- Art of Living Part 3 or Part 1 Course
- Sahaj Samadhi Meditation course with Smt. Bhanumathi Narasimhan
- Birthday Celebrations in honor of H.H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
- Extended stay in Arosa!

AND: special commentaries on the Bhagavat Gita!

In the early 1990s, H.H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar gave a series of memorable Art of
Living courses in Switzerland. It was during these courses that His Holiness
spoke on some of the most profound subjects, amazing participants with, for
example, his commentaries on the Patanjali Yoga Sutras, a magnificent stock of
knowledge that is widely published and cherished all over the world.

After many years, His Holiness came in 2009 back to Switzerland and shared
commentaries on the Isha Vâsya Upanishad. This year, Sri Sri will not only
personally preside over the Art of Living Course, but he will also impart new
knowledge: his much-awaited commentaries on the 7th chapter of the Bhagavat
Gita.

Grüezi and Welcome to Switzerland!
Welcome to a rare unique journey to the depths of the Self!

On the request of many the Journey has been extended by one day!
The journey begins with the Art of Living course from 7th - 11th May 2010.
After a day of rest, participants will then proceed on the 12th May to Lake
Luzern, the most beautiful lake in Switzerland, where we will enjoy a unique
boat trip! The journey will then lead participants directly to the European
Centre of the Art of Living Foundation in the Black Forest, where on 13th May
2010 Maha-Satsang celebrations will be launched to mark the 54rd birthday of
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar.

Participants are advised to sign up as soon as possible, as last year the
course was fully booked by middle of April. There are only 480 places available
which will be allocated on a 'first come-first serve' basis.
Come and join this unique journey!

Subject: Sri Sri's visit to the City of Sails

Easter Monday April 5th 2010 is a day eagerly awaited by New Zealand's "Art of
Living" community. It is the day that the world renowned humanitarian,
peace-maker, and founder of the Internationally-based foundation H.H. Sri Sri
Ravi Shankar will be setting foot in the City of Auckland for an action-packed
two-day visit.

The main focus of Sri Sri's visit to New Zealand - the first since 2004 - is a
huge public talk at Trusts Stadium Arena in Henderson, Waitakere starting at
6pm on April 5. The talk is appropriately called "Ancient Wisdom for Today's
Challenges", reflecting many of the teachings that Sri Sri (who is also fondly
known as 'Guruji') has travelled the world to teach since establishing the Art
of Living Foundation in 1982. Volunteers for the Art of Living Foundation are
working around the clock to ensure that the 5000 seats at the stadium are
filled and an enormous number of invitations have been posted out around the
Country. In addition to the general public, a range of VIPs, community leaders,
and politicians will be attending this event including members of the various
political parties & Mayors of various Cities. Atikaji,our dynamic Senior
International Teacher-will be in NZ on the17th March and a DSN course has been
organised from 18th March to 21st march followed by a Refresher course for
volunteers. Most of the AOL teachers are busy doing numerous Part 1,YES ,and
YES Plus courses. The energy for Guruji's visit is building with each new day,
and Art of Living NZ believes this not-to-be-missed event will become a 2010
highlight for its community as well as the Country in general.
For information about the public talk, visit www.artofliving.org.nz or call (in

Subject: Youth programs at International schools in Dubai

The New year brought in a flurry of action! Young Andrew Korza, ART Excel and
YES! Teacher, flew in from Chicago to conduct the first YES! at the American
School of Dubai.

It all began in 2005 . 'Jute Up' –an awareness drive was being conducted
at schools, homes and within social groups by Sandhya and a small group of
Art of Living volunteers. This then evolved bigger into IAHV's 'My Bag My
Earth' campaign.

As a part of its ongoing 'My Bag My Earth Campaign' to reduce and
eventually phase out use of plastic bags in Dubai, the International
Association of Human Values had been conducting lecture & activity for 300
students of the American School of Dubai to coincide with World Earth Day on
22nd April 2008. The event was organized by GAIA - (Global Awareness & Inner
Awakening), the Parents' group at American School of Dubai. Free jute bags (
sponsored by KRAFT)were distributed to the children as their show of support
for the campaign.

What started back in 2008, resulted in GAIA members expressing a keen interest
to hold Youth Empowerment Seminar for teenagers at the school. The school is
moving into bigger premises in September 2010 and aims at starting its own
Organic Garden, Composting and Green cafeteria. GAIA members preferred a North
American Speaker and an ideal match was found in Andrew who is a part of '
Deepening Roots' at the Canadian ashram! Andrew arrived on 24th January and
YES! was held from 28th to 31st Jan at the school's premises. Local teacher,
Vanya Vora hosted and assisted Andrew. Do watch the video created by young
adult Rohit: www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnyEwif2fDw ( Don't miss the world's
tallest building Burj Khalifa in the backdrop!)

Andrew interacted with the local Dubai YES! members- played on the beach with
them and helped them plant their own tomato and marigold plants. He also guided
volunteers about Composting at Mirdiff after their long kriya session one
Friday morning.

Andrew also paid visits to Dubai English Speaking School, American University
of Dubai and Dubai International Academy. The first ART Excel was then born at
the Dubai International Academy from 11th to 14th Feb along with local teacher
Sangeeta. 13 kids from different nationalities participated in the workshop and
thoroughly enjoyed it. They felt it was the most unique workshop they had ever
attended and some were begging us to extend it. They planted tomato, lettuce,
egg plant and capsicum seedlings in a plot of land allotted by the school for
this project.

The journey has just begun! We hope to take our youth programs to many more
schools. Earlier in March 2008, ART Excel had been conducted at Dubai Modern
High School

and in July 2009, a group of teenagers from the same school went to Bangalore
ashram to attend YES! http://www.ameinfo.com/206822.html
