I could not help but read more comments on the blog I found against Art of Living, and found them very amusing. People who became AOL teachers had a bad experience physically by doing the Sudarshan Kriya. That maybe true. However, most of the people who complain come across as morons. Here is why. AOL [...]

Art of Living – a cult or road to peace?
Posted in life, Musings, This and that, tagged art of living, meditation, mindfulness meditation, reiki meditation, sudarshan kriya on March 6, 2011 | 1 Comment »
I came across an interesting blog citing negative effects of Sudarshan Kriya, a breathing technique, which forms the basic foundation of the Art of Living. I started attending Art of Living courses to de-stress and have more peaceful moments in my life. I find the fact that teachers are volunteers and not paid, very compelling. [...]

I just returned from Art of Silence, which is a part 2 course of The Art of Living. I did part 1 in Jan, and part 2 ended today. I feel so disoriented returning to this world and NYC. I actually wanted to do DSN which is Part 3 since it was being offered in [...]

You would think that with renovation done and having moved into my new place would mean peace of mind. Quite the contrary. I am finding so many errors, and took the day off today to discuss details of errors with my contractor and run errands. I don’t know how to connect speakers into the wall [...]

Google is my favorite company – it is THE apex of innovation. I truly admire the company’s ability to find ways to make more money and provide the best customer experience. It has been making great strides online, and its technology is second to none. CPC-model is Google’s bread and butter. It started with an [...]

Today, I learned something new about cab drivers in NYC. I took a cab today, and when I took out my credit card to pay, he requested that I pay with cash. I obliged him and expressed surprise that he had to pay credit card fees – I thought that cab owners/company would pay the [...]
