BJP patriarch LK Advani has said that the issue of bringing back Indian black money illegally stashed away abroad would fi..

When 24 year old Dimsa rebel, Binod (name changed) got off the
bus after 3 days long journey in train from Assam to Bengaluru,
little did he know that he would be a changed man with a different
mission in life that would be so different from the life that he
had known so far. He and his friends (once cadres of DHD) were part of the
larger diverse group that comprised of about 250 guerrilla
fighters, out of which 231 belonged to the dreaded outfit United
Liberation Front of Assam (ULFA). With the initiative of the Art of
Living this program has been cleared by a high powered committee of
Home Department, Assam.

The rebels had a vague and a skeptic look on their faces when they
got off their vehicle and walked towards the Art of Living
International Centre on 2nd July 2012 for a month long program.
Very soon the look changed into surprise and familiarity at the
warmth and friendliness of the sevaks at the reception office of
the AOL centre.
Henceforth, an enormous and daunting task lay before the AOL
faculty, Sh. Sanjay Kumar who facilitated this month long program
with the help of other faculties and volunteers.
In the words of Sh. Sanjay Kumar “the biggest challenge initially
was to build trust and and to make them follow the discipline of
our program , as most of them had many physical and attitudinal
problems…from then onwards the task was rendered easy by their
participation as the impact of breathing techniques was
healing and transforming” After the first Sudarshan kriya they
began to relax and open up as they experienced well evident
physical healings as well as became quite calm. Yoga, pranayams,
processes, interactions proved to have an invigorating
effect. In the evening there were cultural programs, when
they sang and danced, it was unbelievable that these men had once
lived in forest and have been responsible for so much violence.
Majority of them had acquired training in the Kachin jungles of
Myanmar and Bhutan .
As the program progressed they became more and more participative
and reported physical benefits and change in mindset one of the
participants Michael shared …"it’s a completely different life from
the forest life…being in the program has expanded our vision. Now
we think about our country from a very different angle"
Likewise another participant shared that had they got this
knowledge before, so much bloodshed would not have happened.
Ratul, another rebel had a different perspective he told “though
our food habits are different yet we liked being here ….and learnt
a lot about myself, my society and my country” The impact of the
program is being researched by two senior professors of NIMHANS.
Along with the rejuvenating Art of living programs, the
participants are being provided skill training to adopt a vocation,
the focus being their rehabilitation. One group who had taken
making paper product training even put up a display of their
products.
And once they met Gurudev, H.H.Sri Sri Ravi Shankarji they related
about their life and hardships faced and expressed keen desire to
start a new life. Everybody thanked him for taking this initiative
to heal their lives. Many even offered to take part in His
initiative to help the recent victims of Assam riots.
Their grudges against the system should be an eye opener for each
one of us. Even the government needs to understand that sheer force
will not help to deal with these disgruntled youth. What they
require is a healing touch which only spirituality can
provide. Indeed, Art of Living has done a great service through
this program and has been taking such initiatives in the past also
as a contribution to build a violence free and stress free
society.

We are breathing in a media space that is filled with stories of
fraud, scams, corruption, deceits, abuse..seldom do we have stories
that bring smiles, that touch our hearts, that make us believe in
living itself! its time to start afresh. We believe there is scope,
because we have been a part of that change. We hope to inspire, by
retelling these tales..or at least make it a good read... Happy
