Subject: Wisdom from Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Without commitment there is no stability, no happiness and no progress in
life
December 07, 2011
Q: Guruji, In Shiv Sutras, you have said 'Gyanam bandhanam'. I am confused;
does knowledge make us free or put us in bondage?
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: See after meditation when you become aware of your
body and surrounding, your limited mind comes into understanding of limited
things.
At one time you can understand only history, or mathematics, or physics or
chemistry. Only one thing at a time you can understand. The knowledge of a
particular thing limits your mind from vastness to a limited sphere of
knowledge.
That limited knowledge is bondage.
Q: If you are pure in your intention and action and yet you are perceived as
just the opposite and blamed, what should we do?
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: Just smile through it. Don't worry about what others
blame. You should not keep quiet also, you should educate and ignore.
Q: Guruji, Part 2 course is a journey from head to heart. What is the place
of logic in spirituality?
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: Logic has a very important place. It is through logic
only that you get into spirituality.
Logic makes you see what is life and what is the world and how you are
wasting your time!
A logical mind says, 'no, I should not waste my time. Life is short,
everything is ephemeral.' There is no point in worrying about the past or
brooding about the future; this is logic.
So logic gives you a step into spirituality and so logic is important. But
it only a step, you can't sleep on the step. You have to enter the house. So
it is the first step to enter the home.
Q: Guruji, you have said to overcome habits one should take a vow. What is a
vow?
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: If you have any bad habits, you can take a vow.
If you are habituated towards talking negative, then you say, 'today I am
not going to talk negative. I am not going to complain about anybody.'
So taking such steps makes a big difference.
If you are used to overeating and you take a step, okay I am not going to
overeat for one week. I am going to eat only a little. That is a vow.
Q: When things change from I want to do it to I will have to do it, it
becomes very difficult to act. What to do in such situations? It happens to
me when I do seva?
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: Commitment is essential. Without commitment there is
no stability, no happiness, and no progress in life. So if you take a
commitment you have to fulfill that.

Subject: VAASTU SHASTRA course 29th Dec 2011 to 5th Jan 2011 at the Art of
Living International Center, Bangalore
To: eSatsang <esatsang@artofliving.org>
Dear one,
Jai Gurudev !
Course dates: 29th December 2011 to 5th January 2012 Pre-requisites are not

this course).

2. Fill in details after logging in.

The Art of Living presents an opportunity to learn and promote the divine
oriental science and art for a peaceful and harmonious living through Vaastu
Shastra. A 7-day course on Vaastu Shastra will be conducted at the Art of
Living international center in Bangalore, India, from December 29th to
January 5th, 2011.
What is Vaastu Shastra? The science of energy, which deals with the
construction of houses, palaces, temples and towns is called Vaastu Shastra.
It reads the characteristics of houses/plots and explains the effect of the
same to the inmate of the house. This science is also based on the laws of
nature. Its theories offer us a way of understanding the relationship
between humans and their environment and about how everything is connected
and affects our well-being. In other words, Vaastu Shastra is the science of
building and essentially the art of balancing nature with manmade
environment and the correct placement of man in such a manner so as to get
the maximum benefits of the energy emanated by natural and man-made
environment. Constructed by 18 Divine Maharishis like Bhrugu, Atri and
Vasishtha, this science has a tradition of more than 10,000 years.
Role & Benefits of Vaastu Shastra Vaastu is the bridge between man and
nature. Everything is made up of basic five elements FIRE, WATER, EARTH,
SPACE, and AIR. If the residential and commercial buildings are constructed
without any regards to these elements then how will they give any benefits?
From each of the basic elements we get a strange precious gift due to
infinite powers of the universe and when the tenets of Vaastu Shastra are
followed, it brings you the '3 Ps' of life: Peace, Prosperity and Progress.
Vaastu is in a position to reduce the gravity of the problems faced by human
beings and industries through vibrations of the five great elements that
have anchored their roots in the body of human beings as well as the
external and internal building configurations.
Course Information The course will cover a wide range of topics right from
the philosophy of Vaastu Shastra to its planning and astrological relevance.
Topics like Origin and development of Scientific Indian Vaastu,Vaastu
concept and Characteristics,Selection of site, Various components of Vaastu
and so on with 4 practical sessions included. After completion of the
course, participants will have to submit answer papers following which they
will be awarded "Vaastu Visharad" certificate. This will qualify them to
make use of this ancient knowledge in their respective fields for personal
growth and development as a professional, as well as for the betterment of
the society at large.
