True Art of living is simple living
“Music, dance and celebration, aside from yoga, are an effective remedy for depression. In ancient India, we always lived life in a holistic manner – whether it is medicine or spirituality or culture, art…anything. We see everything from a holistic perspective. Art and culture definitely uplift one’s spirit and deepen one’s meditation. One of my first beliefs is God likes fun. Spirituality is not to be taken as a serious, morose or depressing thing. It is something which brings happiness and joy from within. We have always considered ‘Ananda’ to be a part of spirituality – it is pure bliss, pure joy, great fun.” - See more at: http://indianexpress.com/article/lifestyle/art-and-culture/number-trivia-from-sri-sri-ravi-shankars-world-culture-festival-2016/#sthash.vuSU6GOP.dpuf
If spirituality is happiness and joy within, why all the extravaganza costing in crores when millions are without proper food/shelter and clothes? One wonders if these so called Gurus are suffering from Depression and followers are following the same depression. Because is it not clear in first line,'effective remedy for depression'?
The Mega events of this nature whoever organizes should be called "Art of INDULGING" for when people in the country in millions lack food and education...they preach or should it be called indulging in so called spirituality? or Blind leading the blind?
தனிஒரு மனிதனுக்கு உணவில்லையெனில் ஜகத்தினை அழித்திடுவோம் என்றார் மகாகவி பாரதியார்.Today millions lack food/shelter/clothes yet the so called spiritual guru is deaf or blind to these millions, is not clear to me, When talking on Mother Teresa canceling her Nobel Prize Dinner to save money for poor, these so called spiritual gurus and the followers wonder what they call living?...perhaps art of living to be deaf and blind to the cries of the needy and poor.
Such mega art of indulgences are also from the holy land which produced Swami Vivekananda and Mahakavi Bharathiyar...
Anyone wants to question these INDULGENCES? Any sensible journalists or writers out there to feel the pain of the millions of beggars looking for food/clothes/roof to sleep?
Our character has disappeared. Our English education has destroyed everything and left nothing in its place.. Our children have lost their politeness. To talk nicely is degrading. To be reverential to one’s elders is degrading. Irreverence has been the sign of liberty.If I ever get money in my possession, I shall first spend that in the service of man. Man is first to be saved, he must be given food, education and spirituality. Open your eyes and see what a piteous cry for food is rising in the land of Bharata, proverbial for its wealth. Will your education fulfil this want? Never.

Well someone in journalism, think its from Indiatoday? has got something to call it as, Art of Killing? Even if they focus on ecosystem, it could also mean millions poor human right?
And look at the Periyava photo on walking/sitting/sleeping to set an example in a country where millions lack food/shelter/clothes.
Would like to say, True art of living is simple living.
