Sri Sri Ravi Shankar Stresses on Importance of Meditation

"Violence-free society, disease-free body and confusion-free mind are the birthright of every individual. Spirituality makes you
strong to face any situation because life is not worth losing your smile,'' said Sri Sri Ravi Shankar in his characteristic style at the Kanteerava Stadium on Saturday.

He added that Bangalore is an IT city of India where IT stands for Inner Transformation. "Greeting each other creates a sense of togetherness and family. It is a sense of community which comes from spirituality. Spirituality teaches us our ultimate goal of life and who we are," he said.

Over 10,000 people turned up for the exclusive event which is part of the `4ever b'lorean' campaign of Bangalore Mirror. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar performed Sukshama yoga, Sudrashan Kriya and meditation with all participants of the event.

"Meditation is not concentration it is a deconcentration. Let the mind go wherever it is going; let it spread to the world. Our body is a precious gift to us. So honour your body,'' he said about meditation and yoga. (More)
