Rejuvenating session of Art of Living at Amity University
Amity Institute of Information Technology organized a rejuvenating session of “Art of Living” by Shri Bharat Vij, Director, Art of Living Foundation. He spoke at length on the stress elimination programs which has the potential to benefit people from different walks of life all over the world.
Dr. H.S.P. Singh, Director, Amity Institute of Information Technology was also present in the occassion.
While speaking on human nature, he said that we take life for granted and live life without noticing it. People in general think that happiness lies in accumulating materialistic things. It is human nature that our mind never gets satisfied. Once one desire of ours is fulfilled another desire arises. We do not give importance to present happiness. Art of Living teaches mankind as to how to attain long lasting peace and happiness inside human body.
Shri Bharat enlightened the audience with the concept of “living and existence”. Everybody merely exists but few are living their life in real terms. People who have the skll and expertise in certain specific areas can perform best. In general if we try to do something without knowledge and skll, the outcome would not be that good.
Shri Bharat averred that to achieve the undercurrent of inner happiness one has to tread the path of spirituality. The sub-stratum of our existence is nurturing of spirituality. The idea is not to run after money as it cannot give permanent inner happiness. Learn to control mind rather than being controlled by mind. There is a link between mind and breath. Mediatation, Dhayan and Pranayam are essential to synchronize the mind and breath. The four natures of spiritualism love, peace, joy and enthusiasm comes only through spiritualism.
The workshop on Art of Living ended with an interactive Question and Answer session. A lot of queries regarding meditation and spirituality came up which were answered by the Art of Living Guru.
