For 20 years, the Naganadi River lay dry. Then 40,000 women stepped forward and changed the story. Through the Art of Living River Rejuvenation Project, they revived water, farms, and hope in Tamil Nadu.

Terrorists will never succeed in their agenda. Their heinous acts have put them on the path of self-destruction. They will be brought to justice — in this world and the next. The entire humanity stands in solidarity with those who have lost their near and dear ones. #Pahalgam

#WATCH | Spiritual guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar delivers a keynote address at the inaugural session of the first-ever World Meditation Day at the United Nations headquarters, in New York. He says "Today, meditation is not a luxury as it was thought, but it is a necessity. I would call it mental hygiene. Like you have dental hygiene, we have mental hygiene wherein meditation can help us to be more centred and away from aggression and depression. The mental health crisis has taken a big toll on our population. On one side, our young population is undergoing such aggressive behaviour. On the other side, there is depression. Meditation helps us to be more centred. It brings us sensitivity and sensibility at the same time. The two important factors of any civilized society. We need to be sensitive towards ourselves, towards fellow being and also for the environment. Meditation makes us more conscious about our environment, and conscious about the feelings of people around us. It helps us to stay away from those antisocial activities which would harm oneself and others..." (Source: UNTV)

Looking fwd to evening meditation @guru
Gave the keynote address at the launch of the 1st World Meditation Day at @UN Headquarters, facilitated by Permanent Representative of India @AmbHarishP in the presence of @UN_PGA H.E. Philemon Yang, USG Atul Khare @UN_OpSupport, senior UN officials, PRs, members of the diplomatic corps and other dignitaries. With the efforts of the Permanent Missions of India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Mexico, Liechtenstein and Andorra, all 193 member states came together to acknowledge the power of meditation in bringing health and harmony to all of humanity. #WorldMeditationDay The enthusiasm of the large number of diplomats and decision-makers attending on a Friday evening during the holiday season shows the recognition of meditation and its relevance in the modern world.

Absolutely 💯. The gift of sahaj samadhi meditation has truly helped me tremendously in this direction. Thank you @sr
The confusion in choices lies between better and best, not between good and bad. Whatever we choose, there seems to be something better. Use intuition to make your choices, and once chosen, accept it and move forward.

The suffering of innocent lives caused by the humanitarian crisis in the Middle East is appalling. We have to exercise restraint and break the cycle of violence. Isolate the sick minds, douse the rage and begin dialogue. The international community will have to play this role.
