Proof that Living Is a Work of Art

Wednesday, August 20
Tuesday of last week, I began a six session experience that continues to thrill me.

The Art of Living course offers the most effective integration of physical, mental, emotional and spiritual discoveries I've ever experienced. (And I've taken more than my share of such workshops).

Referring to the Art of Living course as a workshop is a mistake and a misnomer. It is an experience, and even someone as left-brained as I am realizes quickly that he'll do fine without manual, handout, notebook or pen. And remembering the wealth of discoveries is no problem at all. They fit perfectly into one's gray matter...and one's heart.

The concepts are basic and astounding at the same time. Put into everyday words they are nothing new. However, the blend of body, mind, and spirit in exploring these points makes them startling and refreshing and profound, all at once.

The six sessions--4 3-hour evenings,  5 hours Saturday and again Sunday--glide by. There is an almost magical amount of interaction and reflection, of listening and reviewing.

I know, I am offering precious few details. To do so would detract from the true value of The Art of Living, a 27 year old creation of Sri Sri Ravi Shankar. In 1981 he formed the Art of Living Foundation, an international nonprofit educational and humanitarian organization that works in consultative status with the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations.

The Art of Living course is one manifestation of the Foundation's efforts, working on a very individual basis. And that individual focus is all the more meaningful when you consider that some 30 million people in 152 countries have experienced it.

Thank you, Varsha.

Just the experience--especially the continuing experiences taken away from the Art of Living course itself--keeps those beautiful moments coming.
