"There is no rich or poor.. because when they come here everybody becomes rich! Rich in heart and rich in knowledge. That is real richness" Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

Breath Water Sound is a dynamic program, designed for the financially, physically or emotionally challenged sections of society, both urban and rural. From the ghettos of Chicago to the inaccessible tribal regions of India, over 2 million people all over the world, have benefited from the workshop - building their lives and their communities in the process.





The workshop provides tools that improve over-all health, wellness and increases enthusiasm and mental focus. Participants learn simple yet powerful breathing, sound and meditation techniques which eliminate stress from the system so that the mind gains the clarity to solve problems - when individuals are uplifted the whole community is enriched.

A major component of the workshop is to foster community development and service. The values of responsibility for oneself and the needs of others, teamwork, sharing and service are kindled through a number of processes. This ensures that a strong community spirit and ownership of society is built, with cultural appreciation encouraged. On closure of the course, participants choose to contribute to a group community project with the aim of uplifting and empowering the community in which they live.

Sutra

Our Very Nature

Enlightenment is not an achievement. Rather, getting rid of ignorance is an achievement, getting rid of all the stresses and tension. Because our very nature is enlightenment. That's why "human" and "Divine" are not two things. "Human" is the outer skin and "Divine" is the inside.
