I read this article from Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev, very interesting one.
It is here:
Sadhguru's Article On Nurturing Relationships
Few years back, I & my sister had attended his 5-days Yoga course at Chennai. It was a pleasure listening to him talking. Great insights, great control over his ideas and language.
He is probably the far most crowd pulling living Guru during public talks in Tamil Nadu. His 2003 talk at Marina beach, chennai attracted around 120000 people.
One thing I really like from this generation of Gurus such as Sri Sri Ravishankar and Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev is their inclusiveness of women into spirituality. They equally encourage women to get involved, teach courses as well. It is high time we stop the intellectual oppression that our sisters have been subjected to by telling them they are not smart enough for spiritual matters. Things are changing-- Spirituality is for every one -- men, women, young or old. It has become even fashionable to have a perspective in spirituality and get involved in social activities and in the process, celebrate our life with joy. Now, spirituality can be fun and can fill the void in you. To be spiritual no longer means self denial, on the contrary, it is a matter of celebrating life without guilt. That is also a core of Art of Living's founder Sri Sri Ravishankar's message -- Be Joyful and celebrate life -- You are at your best when you are happy and be peace with yourself. As they say, both Joy and misery is infectious, so you choose.
Last, but not the least, Yoga promotes vegetarianism. I have witnessed many people, through practicing of meditation and yoga, realize over the period of time they are much better off sticking to vegetarian diet-- more conducive to intellectual and physical health.
Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev's main ashram is located near Coimbatore.
