Guest guest Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 sri sri ravi shankar is not a former studente of swami's institute. pl read below Ravi Shankar was born to Venkat Ratnam, a scholar of languages, and Vishalakshi. His parents named him Shankar since his birthday matched that of the 8th century CE Hindu saint, Adi Shankara.[1] According to his biographies, at the age of four he could recite verses from the Bhagavad Gita [2]. He was said to be often found in deep meditation even at a young age. Some of his followers of the Art of Living movement claim he received an advanced degree in physics at the age of 17. [3] Shankar is a former disciple of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.[4] At his early age, his father delegated him to the care of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Shankar joined Maharishi's entourage, taught the Vedic pundits at Maharishi's charities, and soon became the Maharishi’s favorite disciple. In the early 1990s, Shankar added the honorific Sri Sri to his own name Ravi Shankar after the renowned sitarist Ravi Shankar objected that the guru was capitalizing on the latter's fame.[1] In an interview, Shankar said that in 1982, after a ten-day retreat into silence on the banks of the Bhadra river in Shimoga in Karnataka, India, the "Sudarshan Kriya" --a rhythmic breathing exercise-- came to him "like a poem, an inspiration". He added, "I learned it and started teaching it."[5] [6] Shankar says that every emotion has a corresponding rhythm in the breath, and believes that regulating breath could help people with their suffering.[7] Jitender Verma <saisewak02 wrote: Sai Ram JI,Art of Living Head Sri Ravi Shankar Ji visited Prasanthi NilayamSir.He is an old student of Swami's Institutes.Sai Ram,Jitender Verma09872011167-- In , "Vishwanathan K S"<kalpathyvs wrote:>> Sairam.> Could you let me know which Ravishankar visited Parthi to meet Swami?> Best Regards,> K.s.Vishwanathan.> Tel No: 022-28738192> - > s.prince k.s. v.thampuran > saidevotees _worldnet ; Manoj Ahuja ; dbanerjee ; Soma Chourasia ; Anant Dandavate ; srisathyasai devotees ;Manu Dixit ; Shantanu Dixit ; Shubham Kothalkar ; Kishore Mahadevan ;Soumya Malik ; Lokesh Muley ; Satish Naik ; Vicky Pathrode ; PranavRao ; Official group of SSSSO Bhopal saiyuva ; SBOI ; S.Maharaj K.S.V.Thampuran ; Aditya Vanka > Tuesday, March 25, 2008 7:24 AM> March 24th 10:30 pm - Sri RaviShankar visits Puttaparthi for Sathya Sai Baba's Darshan> > > March 24th 10:30 pm - Sri Ravi Shankar visits Puttaparthifor Sathya Sai Baba's Darshan > Today morning Sri Ravi Shankar visited Puttaparthi forSathya Sai Baba's darshan.
