Elisha Pulivarti/Washington DC
Indian spiritual guru and Art of Living founder Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, will be delivering a talk on “Unconditional Love” at an important gathering in Washington DC on September 10, Sunday at 6.30 pm to 8.30 pm. The event is being organised by the World Religions Conference. Besides him, several other religious leaders too would be speaking on the occasion, making it a comprehensive platform to delve into the subject.
The event will be held at Martin’ Crosswinds, 7400 Greenway Center Dr, Greenblet, Maryland. I am delighted to share with you all that I will be giving welcome remarks to the programme. Many organisations, including Seventh Adventist Church, among others have come forward to organize the event on religious tolerance, at a time when the world is seeing intolerance and communal strife.
Sri Sri, a peace messenger
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, who founded Bangalore based Art of Living decades ago is a well known spiritual personality all over the world. He has taken many initiatives to bring peace and harmony in the world through his painstaking efforts in strife torn areas and violent conflicts. His message of peaceful co-existence and harmony among humankind couldn’t be more relevant than now.
The Sunday event will be moderated by Dr Subodh Pandit, who will also introduce the topic of Unconditional Love, and Elisha Pulivarti will welcome the guests and gathering. The speakers include Dr Weymouth Spence, Dr Rajan Natarajan, Dr Jean Ricot Dormeus, Bhante Katugastota and Dr Mike Ghose. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar will be the keynote speaker who will be the main attraction at the event.
As everyone knows, the world currently is witnessing turmoil on all fronts – from economic crisis to social inequalities. Coupled with this is the climate change that is devastating the poorest of the poor. Religious groups, especially those in minority are in search of finding some space and justice. This event of Sri Sri Ravi Shankar will definitely help find a path to spiritual solutions to the problems we face.
