Every time we conduct the Happiness Program we come back rejuvenated. Participants come into the program expecting to learn a few breathing techniques, some Yoga or Meditation and perhaps a few moments of peace, but in the end leave feeling excited with surpassed expectations in a space of 4 days.
How do a bunch of ordinary people acting as facilitators and volunteers bring about such feelings in complete strangers over just 4 days? It comes down to the vision of Sri Sri Ravi Shankar to uplift humanity, who has designed this gem of a program; who has enabled ordinary individuals to facilitate extraordinary experiences in others in a span of a mere 4 days. The body feels energised, the mind feels clear and the spirit is bursting with enthusiasm. And we as volunteers feel so passionate to be back again and again because with the application of the wisdom and techniques, we have seen inertia, greed, jealousy, hatred, fear, sorrow lose their grip on our minds and bodies, leaving us with unbridled energy and enthusiasm to face life with all its challenges. Only a happy and free mind can be a successful mind.
A person who has money can give you money. A person who has knowledge can give you knowledge. Only a person who is free can set you free. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar is such a person who through these programs takes people towards happiness and freedom that exists within us.
Here are a few things people shared after the last program that comprised individuals from different cultures and professional backgrounds.
“A wonderful experience that reminded me that the world is full of inspiring people who want to make the world a better place. I learnt so many ways to change my life, live with passion, kindness and purpose”
“Life changing experience. Appreciate the care and comfort”
“I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your love and service to mankind”
“A wonderful program that takes you on a journey of self-discovery and invites you to find happiness in life”
The greatest fulfilment comes out of the happiness of others. In gratitude to the participants and co-facilitators of the course from July 14-17 in Singapore.
