My book is not just about my journey towards spiritual awakening, but it will also give hope and inspiration to every individual who reads it, said Michael Fischman, former president of the US Chapter of the Art of Living Foundation. He was in the city to launch his book 'Stumbling Into Infinity: An Ordinary Man in the Sphere of Enlightenment'. <\/p>\n
The book is about Fischmans relationship with his guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar who helped him experience a life of greater truth and happiness. After taking an Art of Living course in 1988 in the US, I came to Sri Sris ashram in Bangalore and spent two years there. Later, I got associated with the organisation and have been travelling around the world for the last 20 years, he said. <\/p>\n
In the book, he has narrated the early years of the organisation as well as the little-known facts of Sri Sri. <\/p>\n
In the beginning, I was not a disciplined student as I had several emotional issues. After this course, my life changed for the good. My relationship with my family became stronger. My guru Sri Sri taught me that love is constant. He is the most compassionate human being I have ever known, added Fischman. <\/p>\n
The book also busts several myths surrounding spirituality. Stating that spirituality is nothing but personal development and awareness, he said, Times have become demanding and the most challenging thing for a person is his interpersonal skills. Awareness and acceptance is the key. <\/p>\n
