The sattvic intellect is one that just does the job joyfully and is unmindful
of the results. Let things happen or not happen---either way they don't lose
their enthusiasm.

GURUDEV in Baroda for Deepotsav 2010

This year, Gujarat's biggest festival – DIWALI will be very special for
entire AOL Gujarat as Gurudev Pujya Sri Sri Ravi Shankarji will grace this
auspicious festival of light, wisdom & celebration with HIS DIVINE Presence
from November 2nd to 8th.

The Art of Living Baroda is the most fortunate to be blessed with His Presence
during the most auspicious days of this festival – Diwali & New Year!

AOL Baroda is celebrating DEEPOTSAV 2010 - a celebration of
bliss…abundance….& totality in the presence of the DIVINE! Deepostav 2010
will witness the first ever Diwali Yagya & Mahasatsang on the day of Diwali 5th
November as well as New Year Special Advance Course in Presence of Gurudev from
6th to 9th November.

Diwali, the festival of lights as it is known the world over, celebrates the
victory of good over evil, light over darkness and knowledge over ignorance.
Lights are lit on this day not just to decorate the homes, but also to
communicate a profound truth about life. Light dispels darkness and when the
darkness within you is dispelled through the light of wisdom, the good wins
over the evil in you. Diwali is a celebration to forget the bickering and
negativities that have happened through the year. It is a time when you throw
light on the wisdom you have gained and welcome a new beginning.

Diwali Yagya & its Significance:

It is for the first time in India that Diwali Yagya will be performed in
presence of Gurudev. Yagyas are the ancient method for enriching the subtle;
they purify the individual as well as the collective consciousness. They bring
prosperity, purity, peace and harmony- the whole environment becomes lively …

NEW YEAR SPECIAL ADVANCE COURSE in presence of Gurudev at Baroda will be once
in a life-time opportunity for all … Rediscovering oneself in the presence of
the DIVINE!

We invite all to be a part of this phenomenal Celebration to deepen the peace

Subject: Art of Living Sri Lanka presents Thevaram

11,000 people to sing Thevaram in Sri Lanka

Rhyme and rhythm to unite hearts and minds

Sri Lanka, October 14: The land of the singing fish - Batticaloa in Sri Lanka
is all set to usher in 2011 by hosting a historical event on Jan 22 where more
than 11, 000 people from all walks of life will come together on one platform
to sing in unison some of the key verses from the richest Tamil devotional
poetry – The Thevaram.

Inspired by His Holiness Sri Sri Ravi Shankar`s mission of a One World Family
(Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam ) this historical event aims to unite hearts and minds
with rhyme and rhythm. The Thevaram ( In Tamil "Theva" means The Divine and
" aram" denotes a beautiful garland ) represents the first seven volumes of
the Tirumurai, the twelve-volume collection of Tamil Saivite devotional poetry.
All seven volumes are dedicated to the works of the three most prominent Tamil
poets known as Nayanars - Sambanthar and Appar lived around the 7th century AD,
while Sundarar lived in the 8th century AD. During the Pallava period these
three poets travelled extensively delivering discourses and songs characterised
by devotion to Lord Shiva.

In the tenth Century AD, during the reign of Rajaraja Chola I, a collection of
these songs was found abandoned in the Chidambaram temple, along with other
religious literary works, and collated by Nambiyandar Nambi. All the hymns in
the Thevaram (called pathikam in Tamil) are believed to be in sets of ten. "
The hymns are set to music denoted by Panns and are part of the canons of the
Tamil music" shares Swami Sadyojatha, Director, Art of Living International
Office.

Speaking on the relation between music and spirituality, Sri Sri says,
"Spirituality and music together can uplift people, get them out of
depression and help them start a new life with enthusiasm. For a stress-free
life, you have to embrace both these facets (spirituality and music)."

Several musicians, singers, poets, dancers, dignitaries and religious leaders
are also expected to attend the event. The event will also see participation
from every section of society and several countries.

In 2009, the Art of Living had earlier hosted Antarnaad a grand symphony of
2750 Indian classical vocalists in Pune, its historic sitar concert titled
Brahmnaad in New Delhi in Nov 2008, which brought together over 1000 sitar
exponents, in aid of the Bihar Relief and rehabilitation and in 2006 1200
Mohiniattam dancers performed together on one stage in Kerala.
