The Art of Living Foundation
The Hindu-derived meditation movement, The Art of Living (AOL), founded in 1981 by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar in Bangalore, has grown into a global organization which claims presence in more than 150 countries. Stephen Jacobs presents the first comprehensive study of AOL as an important transnational movement and an alternative global spirituality. Exploring the nature and characteristics of spirituality in the contemporary global context, Jacobs considers whether alternative spiritualities are primarily concerned with individual wellbeing and can simply be regarded as another consumer product. The book concludes that involvement in movements such as AOL is not necessarily narcissistic but can foster a sense of community and inspire altruistic activity.
The Rebellious Spirit
'The rebel is one who lives according to his own light, moves according to his own intelligence. He creates his path by walking on it' Osho We have all heard of rebels, those freelancers that don't care about anyone else but themselves . . . But what if we were all to spend a little more time doing exactly that? It might just be that we can begin to respond to what is happening in the world with a heartfelt need to change ourselves. In The Rebellious Spirit, Osho speaks to the spirit that lies hidden beneath our social conditioning, fanning a flame strong enough to burn through layers of rubbish, so that we can see with the crystal-clear gaze of an enlightened being. This is a book that will entice you, tickle your being with laughter, and give you the courage to be yourself in today's world.
Conversations with Space
Time and Space is all we live by. Is there anything more? Most of us have experienced the Divine. That is definitely something more than space time. And what about the Thoughts? What are they? Certainly divine they are too. Guruji and Sudarshan Kriya, Upanishads and Bhagavad Gita all are Divine to culture the mind. You and I experience uncountable fleeting thoughts while being in both conscious and sub-conscious states. Thoughts so fleeting and incomprehensible, that barely a fraction is registered in our minds and is retained in our memory. I spent a lot of my childhood marveling at how the same human mind is capable of finding solutions to both the problems. Conversations with Space is a beautifully documented account of feelings, emotions, learning and living. You might relate, might not. You might agree, might disagree. This read will make you feel and hopefully, help you evolve into the person you wish to become.

Her poems are an interpretation of the pleasant revelations, of expounding upon the simple facets of life.
