Invited to address the Rotary Club of Bangalore, a prominent NGO in the State that came into existence in June 1934 in Pre-Independence era. It has over 250 business heads drawn from diverse vocational backgrounds including foreign expatriates in the city. RCB has emerged as a vibrant organization where members regularly participate in many exciting projects that make a difference in many people's lives.
Interestingly the topic chosen for the evening's address was 'The Art of Silence" which is close to my heart. Silence is one of the most under-rated experiences in life…silence which soothes, calms the mind so that one achieves harmony with nature.Somehow, today the noise levels around us and within us has shut out our very soul. The session included useful commentary from vedic wisdom as well as recent research findings to support the value of Quiet time.
The silence in the hall from an engrossed audience was palpable and the smiles at the end of the session reflected their fulfillment of an evening well spent.
