"The Art of Living, it's a principle, a philosophy of living life to the fullest. It's more of a movement than an organisation. Its core value is to find peace within yourself and unite people in our society - people of different cultures , traditions, religions and nationalities. To remind us that we have one goal: to elevate human life everywhere."

That is the inspiring message of Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, the founder of Art of Living.
