Guru Grace is our lifeline


Subscribe to My Guru Story

Below is one of the many situations of my life which happen a couple of years back in 2012 where HE has blessed me with unbounded Grace -
I studied the TYBMS (Bachelor of Management Studies) course in a top management college in Mumbai. I would graduate in April and was looking for a job. I was looking forward and highly depending on college campus placements. Four companies came to college; I got out after the first round for one, could not attend the second. For the next two, out of hundreds of applicants, I made it to the top five but still did not get the job. I wanted a job in Marketing but these were all financial companies, but due to limited availability I did not mind taking up the Finance job. Two more companies came to college but even after clearing the final round I did not get any job offers. Most of my friends were already well placed and I started wondering why I was left out, in spite of having a Master.

It was the month of January now, I was kind of lost and did not how should I react and what my state of mind must be. Back then Shivratri celebrations were scheduled on 20th Feb in Ashram in the presence of Sri Sri. I had no intention of attending this celebration, until a friend who was already going, one day she suddenly told me that I must come along, we both were somewhere out on our way to satsang and she said with great conviction why don't I come for shivratri ? I will help me gain the strength and the luck which I desperately needed. I thought to my self that I did not have any scheduled interviews for those 4 days, nor did I have any other plans, so I quickly booked my bus tickets and reached Ashram for Shivratri.

It was indeed a great experience, attending the Rudra Pooja on Maha Shivratri with Sri Sri, I was happy and blissful. I dropped all my wishes and fears on the humble feet of my Master. One day after shivratri, Sri Sri decided to meet everyone who had come to ashram, this was the turning point. I thought to myself if I get a chance, I will tell Guruji about my job situation.

He Knew the Right Time to be There


Subscribe to My Guru Story

I was invited to be a part of the Fashion Show at the International Women's Conference, Bangalore, this year. I have done Pageants in the past, however this one was very prestigious and close to my heart, for the obvious reason!

I met Gurudev a day prior to the event, and told Him that I had come for the ramp walk and took His blessings. My deepest desire was to see HIM watch me on stage. Rehearsals for the event were happening in full swing. My excitement levels were on the rise, as we came closer and closer to the final moments. On the day of the event, contestants were discussing whether Guruji would be present for the event. And I am sure HE KNEW THE RIGHT TIME TO BE THERE.

Dreams Do Come True


Subscribe to My Guru Story

I would like to share with one and all a sweet story of my life. I am a Hindu girl who married a Parsi boy, in the year 1995. We had a Court marriage.

Having gone through a lot of turbulent times, while I swam against the tide, I finally found my saviour in SRI SRI in 2005. Still swimming against the same tide, albeit with a Smile(that happens when you find a GURU), I realized that following what HE said, and eventually becoming an AOL full time teacher while continuing my dental practice for 4 hours a day, I had seen and was moving towards the shore, which I never imagined actually existed. All my dreams had been realized, in just a span of 3 odd years since I met my GURU - SRI SRI.

But we all know and have experienced at some point, how one desire leads to more desires, and so the lingering pain of not having been married in the presence of Gurudev, and rather accepting blessings from Law instead, started raising its ugly head. Whenever a difference of opinion rose between me and my husband, or whenever we felt at crossroads, I fell back to our court marriage as the reason for it.

Finally in 2013, my husband decided to take that excuse away, and decided to take me for GURUJI's blessings to the Bangalore Ashram. This was on the occasion of our 18th wedding anniversary. Deep in my heart, the dream of getting married in the presence of Gurudev, in a traditional Rajasthani way, started taking hold of me, first as dreams at night and then during the day too.
Finally the day arrived, and we found ourselves standing in Shakti Kutir with H.H Sri Sri Ravishankar. I still have to pinch myself to wake up from what ensued. As soon as I told Guruji when He put sweets in my hands, that it was our wedding anniversary, what followed was MY DREAM, to the minutest detail, and that too without uttering a word to my Master about it.

My Master’s Present


Subscribe to My Guru Story

My journey with the Art of Living started in October 2009. Being the only child, I was having great
difficulties in opening up to people and making new friends. Somewhere, I always felt lonely. I did not feel happiness and joy. And I wanted things to change.
I had been really attracted to the wisdom and knowledge shared by Guruji through books and talks since a very long while, but at that time, I thought that Art of Living just happens in Bangalore. And that it was far beyond my reach. Then a friend told me about a course which was to happen very close to my place.

Sri Sri Changed my Life


Subscribe to My Guru Story

At the age of 44, I happened to be an unfortunate victim of the deadly disease named Leukemia. Its treatment with modern day medicines had made me a 90% dead man. I had become extremely weak, physically as well as mentally, and was also under-going a great amount of depression due to the state of matters. Doctors were of the opinion that even after treatment, I wouldn’t live long. My life was truly miserable. I was living the life of a scared, feeble, fragile and helpless person, knowing that I would die soon. The attachment towards my parents, wife & my lovely two kids, and the thought that I was going to lose them in a few days, haunted me every second.

One of those days, a close relative of mine, along with a few friends, invited me to do the Art of Living Basic Course. This proved to be the starting point of a truly magical phase in my life. Guruji really opened up a new door to my life, a door of hope, a door of peace, a door of strength.

I regularly practiced my Sadhana and Sudarshan Kriya. It was healing me. It was helping me progress towards good health. To the surprise of my doctors, I started responding very well to their medicines, my health was showing extremely positive signs of a speedy and successful recovery. My blood counts had become normal. I was very hopeful at this stage, seeing the positive effects of the Sudarshan Kriya in my life.

My Lost Wallet


Subscribe to My Guru Story

I am Devendra working with an MNC in Mumbai. I did my basic course in 2008 and have done six advance courses until now. I have experienced so many guru miracles in my life but I want to share this one. While travelling in an auto two days back, I lost my wallet which had my driving license, pancard and other debit & credit cards along with a sum of 5000Rs. I was feeling so bad and sulking on me being so careless. I didn't even share this with my wife who is an art of living teacher but she noticed that I am little sad so when she insisted on the reason, I told her everything and she asked me to simply pray to Guruji and that I may get my wallet back. I thought how will Guruji bring my wallet back or why should I trouble him by asking such things however she still insisted and I prayed.
