When there is no confusion then there is no decision. For example, if there is a piece of wood and a biscuit on your desk, you don't decide which one to eat, isn't that right? Decision is always about choice and choice is always confusing. So, all decision-makers are confused! (Laughter)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Action is spontaneous when there is no actor. In you, there is an actor and there is a witness. An actor is either confused or decisive, but the witness realizes that the action is spontaneous and smiles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The more decisions you make, the more confused you are, and as a result you swing between pain and pleasure. The more the witness grows in you, the more playful and untouched you are. Trust, faith, love and joy all manifest in and around you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are you confused, decided or happy now?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eberhard: Confusion is too strong of an expression. Is it not rather "choice"?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Urmila: We are decided that choice is confusion. (Everyone laughs)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hans Peter: Is there any freedom without confusion?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sri Sri: When you are confused, there is no freedom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hans Peter: What is freedom of choice?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sri Sri: Confusion!

After attaining his degree in science, Ravi joined Maharishi's entourage, taught the Vedic pundits at Maharishi's charities, and soon became the Maharishi’s favourite disciple.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;Enlightenment &amp;amp; Vision:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;In 1982, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar went into ten days of silence and emerged as an enlightened master. It is believed that during this time he cognized the famous Sudarshan Kriya breathing technique. In order to spread the kriya and other related knowledge, Sri Sri subsequently set up the Art of Living (AOL) Organization in 1982.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;The Art of Living:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;Today the Art of Living Foundation is the world’s largest volunteer based Non-Governmental Organization, active in over 140 countries. Its service projects, programs on yoga, meditation and stress elimination have benefited over 20 million people representing all walks of life, religions, cultures and traditions with its 5Hs program in the areas of Health, Homes, Hygiene, Human Values and Harmony in Diversity.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;International Association for Human Values:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Sri Sri Ravi Shankar founded the International Association for Human Values (IAHV) in 1997, which undertakes development projects in thousands of villages, bringing self-reliance to millions of people from Afghanistan to Bosnia, Iraq to New York.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;Distinctions:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Sri Sri is the recipient of numerous honors including the “2005 Global Humanitarian Award” by the state of Illinois, “Guru Mahatmya” award by Government of Maharashtra, India, the title of “Yoga Shiromani” by President of India, the Phoenix Award from the Mayor of Atlanta, Georgia, only to name a few… He was a guest speaker at the Millennium World Peace Summit during the 50th anniversary of the United Nations. Sri Sri is also a member of the Council of the Divinity School at Yale University.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;His Message&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Sri Sri Ravi Shankar travels extensively across the globe to inspire youth to work together for a better society. As he says, “Religion is the banana skin and spirituality is the banana. The misery in the world is because we throw away the banana and are holding on to the skin.” Sri Sri believes that all religions and traditions have a common value system, and these shared values have to reach every corner of the world in order to make it a better place for all. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5762394201104271448-2946649123362963903?l=artofliving-rajkot.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artofliving-rajkot.blogspot.com/feeds/2946649123362963903/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5762394201104271448&amp;postID=2946649123362963903' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5762394201104271448/posts/default/2946649123362963903'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5762394201104271448/posts/default/2946649123362963903'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artofliving-rajkot.blogspot.com/2008/11/about-sri-sri.html' title='about sri sri'/><author><name>Kaushal</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17826232034034777721</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rl2MpU4MaFc/TPkhqOKqnYI/AAAAAAAAAxU/oAkaNHFJ44Y/S220/P1010490.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rl2MpU4MaFc/SQ3SOfh3DyI/AAAAAAAAAJk/Bm_XHlCAO6U/s72-c/s25.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
