詩麗 詩麗的真相
我與你同在

這個人實在有點不怎麼樣。

好吧，所以他是一個精神領袖。他教瑜伽和靜坐冥想。他的組織遍佈全球150多個國家，他們做服務工作，也成就了一些大的計畫方案..​​等等。

這是很容易做到。

不容易做到的是他周圍的瘋狂。因為以上所說的都無法解釋圍繞在他身旁野性般的歇斯底里與注意力。

舉例來說，他的南美之旅遍布整個阿根廷。有龐大的人群在機場迎接他，他的飛機一降落立刻就上傳到twitter了。在有些地方學生和教育工作者站立在雨中聆聽他的演說，大學全體人員和州長們尊敬他。他去參觀一所監獄，在會議上演說，甚至走入布宜諾斯艾利斯的農村地區。

有些人激起了一場關於聲稱逃稅和政府支付費用給他的爭論，但直到十五萬人出現在這一場盛大的靜坐冥想，這個靜坐冥想讓一切都沉默了。無論你玩的是公平或是骯髒，當人們被一隻更大的手擊敗時每個人都了然於心，在所有地方中，阿根廷是非常熟悉這隻上帝之手的。

再說回來，是什麼讓這一切起作用呢？顯而易見的答案是 - 它真的包裝得很好。例如，在靜坐冥想之後，巨大的人群在El Planeta Medita隨著樂隊的重節拍舞動，這是什麼節目啊！唱著　“嘎內夏庵” 和 “南無納拉亞納”。但是，即使是有吸引力的表演，菜色還是要美味，華麗的框架不會讓畫作變得漂亮。

環繞生活的藝術和古儒吉狂熱​​漩渦的核心就是這個真理：有些關於你的東西，你仍然不知道。他沒有解釋，他讓你體驗它。

這種體驗超越了一切你所認知的你，超越你來自何方，超越你做的工作和所有那些似乎是在塑造你生活的事實。非常安靜地，沒有預警的情況下，他揭開了改變生命的東西一直以來就在你的鼻子之下。

在古儒吉之前已經有許多靈性大師教導我們生命的實相。他們全都在自己方面和偉大的程度上，無可匹敵，比較是毫無意義的。然而，靈性始終還是一個個人的追求 - 如果你想知道真相，尋求它然後發現它。古儒吉是一個改變這遊戲規則的人。


當“為什麼我需要靈性？”這是每個人都需要自己回答的事情時，他清楚揭示為什麼社會需要靈性，除了使你個人生活充實之外，靈性

•對減輕創傷與災後管理是非常寶貴的
•拯救你的孩子在學校免於暴力和自殺
•提供康復戰俘和囚犯的痛苦與對社會的復仇情緒的一個非常有效的機制
•設置平台，以解決社區之間的衝突
•培養對環境的敏感度
•去除使人們產生貪腐的狹隘與自私心態
他將迄今為止一個完全個人化的追求，一些異想天開的想法，轉換成一個集體的需要。他把抽象深奧和難以理解的以一種每個人在社會中都能應用和使用的方式帶入主流理解的領域。

古儒吉的靈性品牌沒有形而上的術語。它可能打破了對生命長期以來的概念，但它並沒有忽略常識。他的組織及成員穩固地植根於世界，對真正的世界危機，採取具體步驟。他的練習和教導很簡單，給你直接的經驗。你不需要任何特殊的精神能力，例如，團體歌唱時去感受你心靈狀態的差異，或體認到當你幫助別人時，你感覺到自己提升了。

作為一位靈性大師，古儒吉打破所有俗套的刻板印象。他沒有等人們來找他，他走向他們。 （他的護照全部疊在一起很容易做成一個大書架。）他不因為商業的 '世俗性' 而拒絕商業，他不怕發表評論或參與政治的發展。他的計畫方案已達到和靈性無關的地方，從監獄到酒吧。

他的體系也不是只能在一定的條件下，和某些類型的人才行的通。它在俄羅斯，在伊拉克運作，寒冷的地方，乾燥的地方，和年青人與成年人，家庭主婦，囚犯，受過教育的人和文盲的人。它的普遍性有什麼更偉大的証明可以比得上這個事實，在一個沒有瑜伽或靜坐冥想傳統的地方，一個六位數大小的人群聚在一起閉上眼睛，坐在一位來自地球另一端甚至不會說他們語言的上師身旁。怎麼樣？這些人有沒有突然變得很有靈性？沒有。藉由全然地辛勤工作，崇高的耐心和不可抗拒的簡單，他使靈性切入他們的生命之中。

不過，如果你真的想發現詩麗 詩麗(古儒吉)的真相，不要聽信任何人的話，跟隨你自己的經驗，因為即使是來到他身邊的人可能知道也可能不知道關於他的一切。拉住他們的是，當他以簡單的方式說，“你是和平，你是愛”，串起了真理。

“信任是體認到你總是得到你所需要的。” – 古儒吉

The Truth about Sri Sri

I’m with you.

Something doesn’t quite add up about theman.

Ok, so he’s a spiritual leader. He teachesyoga and meditation. His organization is spread over over 150 countries; theydo service activities and have pulled off some big projects etc. etc.

This much is easy to get.

What is not easy to get is the madnessaround him. Because all of the above does not explain the wild hysteria andattention that surrounds him.

For instance, he was all over Argentina onhis current tour of South America. There was a massive crowd to receive him atthe airport. He was trending on twitter as soon as he landed. He addressedstudents and educators who stood in rain in some places, listening to him.Universities and Governors honored him. He went to visit a prison, spoke at conferencesand even took a walk through the rural area of Buenos Aires.

Some people kicked up a controversy tooabout alleged tax evasion and the government having paid him but only until150,000 people showed up for a massive meditation. That event silenced everything.No matter whether you play fair or dirty, everybody knows when they’ve beenoutplayed with a bigger hand. And of all places, Argentina is well familiarwith the hand of God.

Coming back, what makes all this tick? Theobvious answer is - it’s packaged really well. For instance, after themeditation, the huge crowd at El Planeta Medita was seen moving to thumpingbeats with the band So What Project, chanting “Ganesha Om” and “Namo Narayana”.But even if the presentation is attractive, the dish still has to taste good.An ornate frame will not make the painting itself beautiful.

At the heart of this whirlpool of frenzyaround Art of Living and Sri Sri is the truth : there is something about youthat you have still not known. He does not explain it. He makes you experienceit.

And that experience goes beyond everythingyou know about yourself, beyond where you are from, what job you do and allother facts that seem to shape your life. Very quietly, without warning, heunveils something life-altering which was right under your nose all this while.

There have been spiritual masters beforeSri Sri who have taught the reality of life. They have all been matchless intheir own regard and at that scale of greatness, comparisons are pointless.However, spirituality has always remained a personal quest - if you want thetruth, seek it and find it. This is where Sri Sri has been a game changer.

While ‘why do I need spirituality?’ issomething everybody needs to answer for themselves, he has shown clearly whysociety needs it. Apart from making your personal life fulfilling, it

•       isinvaluable in trauma relief and disaster management,

•       savesyour children from violence and suicides at schools,

•       offersa very effective mechanism for rehabilitating prisoners and convicts who havenothing but bitterness and feelings of revenge towards society,

•       setsthe platform to resolve conflicts among communities,

•       cultivatessensitivity for the environment,

•       removesthe narrow and selfish mindset that gives rise to corruption

He has turned what was thus far an entirelyindividual pursuit, thought whimsical by some, into a collective need. He hasbrought the abstract and esoteric into the realm of mainstream comprehension ina way that it has applications and uses for everybody in society.

Sri Sri’s brand of spirituality has nometaphysical jargon. It might break long held notions about life but it doesnot ignore common sense. His organization and its members are firmly rooted inthe world and respond to real world crises with concrete steps. His practicesand teachings are simple and give you direct experience. You don’t need anyspecial spiritual abilities, for instance, to feel the difference in your stateof mind while singing as a group or to realize that when you help somebody, youyourself feel uplifted.

As a spiritual master, Sri Sri shatters allcliches of the stereotype. He did not wait for people to come to him; he wentto them. (All his passport books put together will easily take up a largebookshelf.) He does not reject commerce because its 'worldly'. He is not afraidto comment or participate in political developments. His programs have reachedplaces that have nothing to do with spirituality, from prisons to pubs.

It is also not that his system works onlyunder certain conditions, with certain kinds of people. It works in Russia, inIraq, places that are cold, that are dry, with youth, with adults, housewives,prisoners, with the educated and the illiterate. What greater proof of itsuniversality than the fact that in a place with no tradition of yoga ormeditation, a six digit number sized crowd came together to sit with their eyesclosed next to a guru from the other end of the earth who does not even speaktheir language. How? Did all these people suddenly turn spiritual? No. By sheerhard work, sublime patience and irresistible simplicity, he has madespirituality relevant to their lives.

However, if you really want to find out thetruth about Sri Sri, don't take anybody's word. Go by your own experience.Because even the people who come to him may or may not know everything abouthim. What pulls them is when, in his simple manner, he says, “You are peace,you are love”, it rings of truth.

"Faith is realizing that you alwaysget what you need.” - Sri Sri
