I dont beleive that he should be granted any noble of national/internation significance. His organization ask for money to do courses which they force people to sign as donations. They themsleves are restless and moneyminded people, how can they impart peace to people. This is all drama by these Guru and like that.

Hi Arpit, Not to hurt you, but wanted to share these things with you. I dont think you have experienced the joy of being a part of AOL. Well I doubt if you have actually done this course. I personally feel that, there are certain things which should be measured only after you have your own experience with the same(May it be good or bad). I sincerely advice you to do the basic course and then let me know if you still have the same opinion. People come into AOL with their own will and wish. Nobody is being forced to either join AOL or give donations towards the same. I am sure you would change your opinion once you join this family.

True no one is forcing anyone to do the courses. But the very fact that the course costs hundreds of rupees proves that it is meant for rich and middle class. Social service is reaching out to maximum no of people (who are, incidentally, the poor), which I am pretty sure the GURUJI is not doing. All he has done so far is talk a lot about harmony but has not achieved anything. If you can Nobel prize is for talking then he can certainly have it.

No one is forcing you to do the course and the amount paid is nothing compared to the benefit derived - My wife and self have personally experienced this .
And the money collected is put to very good use. Pl go to artofliving.org and check for yourself.
