Subject: First Time Ever in Ras Al Khaimah - Apoorva Sandhya with Rishi
Vidyadharji

On Sunday the 21st February 2010, the Art of Living – Ras Al Khaimah (one of
the seven emirates of the United Arab Emirates), had the honour of organising &
hosting "Apoorva Sandhya with Rishi Vidyadharji" at Indian Association Hall
Ras Al Khaimah (RAK). This was a Unique Evening in every sense

The Festivities of the Enchanting Evening of 21st February 2010 commenced at
6.30pm with "Guru Pooja" conducted by Rishi Vidyadharji at the residence of
an AOL Volunteer. After this auspicious beginning, Rishi Vidyadharji was
escorted into the Indian Association Hall at 7.45pm - a crowd of around 300
people from different walks of life, which was a multi cultural mix from wide
and varied regions of India eagerly welcomed Rishiji.

The moment Rishi Vidyadharji, stepped onto the elegantly arranged stage,
Rishiji took charge of the entire proceedings and enthralled the jubilant
audience for the next 2 hours, with an ingenious mix of Bhajans, Knowledge &
Meditation. Rishiji commenced the session with a brief introduction to the
benefits of Yoga, Pranayama & Sudarshana Kriya Thereafter Rishiji enthralled
everyone with participative discussions on various topics like Stress,
Devotion, Prayers, Meditation, etc. This session was beautifully blended with
lively and sour stirring Bhajans by Rishiji, ably supported by the Audience &
AOL Volunteers. Rishiji also took the assembly through a deep Meditation. The
entire evening was indeed "Apoorva Sandhya" … unique and memorable for
all the participants, which left each and everyone craving for more and more.

The AOL RAK Team presented Rishi Vidyadharji with a Bouquet and Memento as a
token of Love and Gratitude for gifting us the "Apoorva Sandhya".

The AOL RAK team even managed to arrange for some light snacks for all.

For the dedicated team of AOL RAK Volunteers, organising this blissful event
within a brief time span of about 16 days has been a deep learning process and
experience. AOL RAK Team conveys its sincere appreciation and thanks for the
enduring Support, Guidance & Motivation received from Mrs. Vijaya Niranjan (our
beloved AOL Teacher, Abu Dhabi) & Capt. Fazal Shah (Mr. Fuzzy - IAHV Volunteer
& AOL Volunteer-DXB).

Last but not the least, our heartfelt gratitude to our beloved Guruji for
gifting us the company of Rishiji…

Subject: Art of Meditation Course in Atlanta with Tanuja Limaye: Mar 7 - 9,
2010

We are indeed fortunate that Tanuja Limaye will conduct the Art of Meditation
course in Atlanta. This course features the Sahaj Samadhi meditation technique.
Sahaj can be literally translated as "effortless" and this technique allows the
mind to effortlessly settle into a state of bliss and meditation.

We know that the mind cannot be managed by effort. The more effort we put on
the mind to act in a certain direction, the greater it resists it. On this
beautiful course, we learn how we can let go of all effort and allow the mind
to come to rest, and meditation happens naturally in this restful state. When
we return from that tranquil state to our daily life, we are refreshed,
recharged, completely rejuvenated.

Sahaj Samadhi is such a subtle and delicate technique that the smallest
explanation can give it away! So it's best learned and experienced on the Art
of Meditation course. Learning to meditate is a wonderful gift that you can
give yourself. Actually, it is a gift that keeps giving back every day, as you
regularly practise meditation. Come experience it for yourself!

Dates: Mar 7 - 9
Times: Mar 7 (By appointment), Mar 8 & 9 (7 pm - 9 pm)
Location: Art of Living Center

The magnificence of being in silence in the National Art of Living Center is a

"I felt so taken care of. The food is magnificent! Everything I needed was
there before I asked"

"I'll be honest, I thought being in the city was no way to go into silence.
Boy, was I wrong! The DC Center is just perfect for silence courses. You stay
right here in the buiding, come downstairs in the morning for yoga &
meditation, there's a new kitchen being put in. The park across the street is
huge & filled with trees & fountains. I couldn't believe it. I'm telling
everyone to come & take a course in DC. It's like coming home again &

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

Hard Skills are Domain Skills (Engineering, Medicine, Science and all of the

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 ..)

With a very special Teacher who truly reflects the master. His childlike

We had a MEGA MIND blowing, superfantastic satsang with Rajshri Patel in Bay
Area with 700+ people on Saturday Feb 27th. Rajshree Patel, those who don't
know
her is a very senior Art of Living teachers and have taught the part I course
to a lot of
Rishi's and Swami's to bring them to the path. She has been teaching for last
20 yrs
tirelessly around the whole world.

In the satsang with her a lot of people had a lot of healing experiences after
the GROUP
blessing given by Didi. People with cancer, with body pains, with tooth
extraction pain &
emotional pain received a lot of healing. Each and everyone was filled with
JOY,
ENTHUSIASM and willing to be there with Guruji on the Upanishad course in Los
Angeles

Already 70+ people have registered in 24hrs after the knowledge session with
Rajshree didi.
The course counter has moved up from 435 before and it is 510+ right now.


Can you imagine that with just few hrs with Rajshree didi such amazing
knowledge,
healing blessing, uplifting satsang!!!!! If you think that 2 hrs with Rajshree
didi was an
amazing feeling and very healing.What will it be like to sit with Guruji on a
course with 1100 people for the
Upanishads. What kind of blessing will that be.

We have the most amazing Guru in the UNIVERSE!!!
MORE fortunate is that we have a LIVING MASTER
MORE then that we will be in HIS presence for 3 days
MORE then that we will be receiving the HIGHEST KNOWLEDGE directly from HIM

We wait for what we want for some time and when it is in front of us we start
thinking
from our RATIONAL MIND......

WHAT are we waiting for? JUST SIGN UP!

Subject: A Divine Holi...YES! Ludhiana

It was a usual Sunday morning something around 8 am when some of our
30 Yes! Commandos were getting ready to start their day in different style.

And guess what! The whole team went to play Holi with the 70 odd Kids of "Sri
Sri Ravi Shankar School", Ludhiana.

We all got Vibrant Colors, lip-smacking Food, Powerful
Artilleries,(Pichkari's) and something very important.The Sanklapa with That
big naughty Charismatic Smile to make beautiful day of those Kiddos really
special!

Within no time everyone's wild instincts was out in full action... The
excitement started rising up and so was the level of Hoo-Ha!!

It gave much Freedom to all present to let their hair loose and enjoy their
hidden crazy self.

Children particularly enjoyed dancing while throwing water filled balloons
Besides, they had their water missiles and even Buckets to drench the person
from far and escaped further drenching.

As most of the times I was Behind The lens, these kiddos were more than happy
to give me Some good shots with full of poise… all eager to fit in My
Camera's frame.

Finally after a wild and eventful masti ,it was time to satisfy their tiny
hungry bellies .Yes! Commandos got ready with the food to be served but
Aaaaa… Before the Kids could start over binging, we all recited Mantras and
Om Chants which were very energizing…

We concluded with Acknowledgements Ceremony ;-) and Of course with Chocolates.

Truly everyone's enthusiasm reached its peak and matched with the nature
which was in full bounty at the time of Holi.

A day where we all felt that the Divine was sitting right here within us….

We all were touched…

Wish u all a very Happy 'n' Colourful Holi... Jai Guru
Dev!

See you all again with an another Mesmerizing Experience…

Love

Subject: A Way To De-stress For Commonwealth Game Volunteers

source : sify news

As pressure mounts on volunteers for the approaching Commonwealth Games in the
capital, they may find the perfect way to stay high on enthusiasm and physical
fitness with an Art of Living course.The mega event, which will take place in
Delhi from Oct 3 to 14, aims to recruit 30,000 volunteers from a cross-section
of people - from students and homemakers to ex-servicemen and corporate
honchos.

Sudhir Mital, the special director general looking after the volunteers
programme, said: 'The Art of Living Foundation has expressed an interest in
providing a three-day course on stress management to the Commonwealth Games
volunteers'.'The course, which is otherwise a week long, will be specially
formulated to suit our needs. According to the proposal, it will be divided
into a four-hour capsule for three days. We are in the process of finalising
it,' Mital told IANS.

Spiritual guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar's organisation, the Art of Living
Foundation, teaches meditation and yoga with a basic aim of de-stressing. The
foundation has a large following across the globe and has a presence in 151
countries.

Darshak Hathi, international director of Art of Living, said the foundation
will also offer members of their youth wing for the volunteers programme.'We
are hoping to give 1,000 volunteers from our youth wing for the volunteers
programme for the Games. Members of our youth wing are in the age group of
25-35 and are a dedicated lot. Most of them are also from a sports background;
therefore it's an added advantage,' Hathi told IANS.According to Hathi, besides
helping the volunteers de-stress, the course will also motivate them to take on
challenging tasks.'Along with technical skills, it's important that the
volunteers are taught stress management and coping skills. They also need to be
motivated to take up challenging tasks. Therefore, we have proposed to impart
them the required skills. The same will be provided to the staff,' he
said.Since the number of volunteers will be huge, Hathi said the group will be
divided into batches of 2,000 who will be trained by 25 trainers of the
foundation.

Preeja Jain, a teacher who has applied for the volunteering programme and also
takes the Art of Living course, said: 'If the Art of Living Foundation is
planning to train the volunteers, then there could be no better news.'It's very
important to have a positive outlook, be physically fit and have enthusiasm to

Subject: YES! and ART Excel for the first time in International Schools of
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 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. The GAIA club wanted to create
an empowered youth team to take this project into its new premises. 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. Do watch the video created by our young adult Rohit:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnyEwif2fDw ( Don't miss the world's tallest
building Burj Khalifa in the backdrop!) The video speaks for itself how a group
of teenagers felt so totally transformed within 3-4 days of the course.

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 , Regent School and Dubai International Academy. The first ART Excel
was then born at the Dubai International Academy from 11th to 14th Feb. 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 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.
We have held one follow up session within the school's premises and hope to
maintain this regularly.

With Guruji's Blessings, we hope to take our youth programs to many more
international schools. Earlier in March 2008, ART Excel had been conducted at
Dubai Modern High School:

http://www.khaleejtimes.com/DisplayArticleNew.asp?xfile=data/theuae/2008/April/theuae_April138.xml&section=theuae&col=

and in July 2009, a group of 26 teenagers from the same school went to
Bangalore ashram to attend YES! http://www.ameinfo.com/206822.html
We have been continuing to reach out to schools through our awareness drives,
campaigns and Stand up Speak Out/ Take Action millennium campaigns every year.
But this is the first time we have brought Art of Living youth courses to the
multi -cultural and multi-ethnic schools in Dubai. What a beautiful start to
the year!

Subject: Series of YES! courses in Schools first time in Pune!

As we all know there is a commendable work going on for YES! courses in
Pune.

After taking many Open YES courses and connecting many YES volunteers to
guruji and having a firm grip over the teens and teenage related issues , we
thought it's right time to approach various schools now, so that we can pass
on Guruji's beautiful knowledge to many teenagers together at a faster rate.

So we took a sankalpa to reach many schools all over Pune. With
Guruji's blessings we got a break through in our first endeavor itself. It
happened when a versatile dynamic volunteer and ex student of S. M. Choksey
High School, Hiren Aiya approached his alma matter and without much
documentation and other formalities principal agreed to organize a course for
the 9thstandard students to begin with on the conditions that you must convince
the children and parents too.

After interacting with both the parents and children we got overwhelming
response for the course and the school approved the course for 800 students.
It was decided to conduct batches of 50 to ensure personal attention and
personal counseling which is the need of the hour.

On the first day of registration for the first course of 50 students we
had to close the registration desk within 15 min. This was for the first time
when we saw students and parents so eager to do the course, thanks to our
volunteers who conveyed the true meaning and importance of the course in the
most acceptable manner.

The first course got over and the students shared their amazing
experiences with their friends and the next course began and this continued. We
conducted three batches in February but due to board exams in school, followed
by the exams of remaining standards we could not use the school premises, but
the school has agreed rather made and appeal to conduct courses for remaining
students in the next academic year as soon as the year begins.

Even parents and teachers shared that there were marvelous changes in
their students and now they are eager for doing the art of living course and
approached us to organize a course for them too in school premises.

Following are the few advantages of organizing YES courses in schools

There are no timing issues. Maximum students can attend the course as their
school and class timings match, which generally differ in open courses. This is
one of the major reasons due to which parents and students refrain from doing
the course
Follow ups are easy
And more over students do not feel that they are doing something very different
and strange from the friends like meditation. This is one of the major reasons
that we do not have retentions is YES.

One more good news the school has also agreed to keep follow ups for the
students every week in their school premises. This would be the largest ( In
terms of number of students attending ) follow up centre for YES in Pune,
rather Maharashtra.

All this would not have been possible without timely help and selfless
seve by our very strong YES volunteers like Hiren, Sayali and Saurabh and many
more..

The race has begun. Ye to trailer hai.... Picture abhi baaki hai ... (as
maximum students at Choksey are Gujrathi i learned few Gurjarathi words also
'aa to trailer che....Aje Picture baaki che ;) ')

meanwhile we have finalized 4 more schools in Pune and the courses will start
there soon.
