The Art of Living Foundation
"Life is sacred. Celebrate life. Care for others and share whatever you have with those less fortunate than you. Broaden your vision, for the whole world belongs to you."
-- Sri Sri (From an article in the New York Times 10/2001)
Established in 1982, The Art of Living Foundation is an educational and humanitarian foundation, registered in the US as a tax-exempt and nonprofit organization. It is not a religious organization, but as one adhering to the basic spiritual principles of love, kindness and unconditional service to the world. It carries out numerous charitable, educational and humanitarian programs throughout the world on the basis of donations.
All the activities of the foundation are based on the saying of its founder teacher Sri Sri Ravishankar-"a truly religious person will be secular in nature. Secular means one who thinks all human beings are his or her own."
To live life fully and freely is an art, requiring skill, intuition, creativity, and knowledge. Art of Living, through its many innovative programs, brings these values to our society by strengthening the individual.
We do this by offering programs that eliminate stress, create a sense of belonging, restore human values, and encourage people from all backgrounds, religions, and cultural traditions to come together in celebration and service. |
