Art of Living Foundation Mississauga - Earth Day 2011 Celebration

Art of Living volunteers from Mississauga get together and celebrated the Earth Day Celebration 2011 in our Art of Living Adopted park in Windrush wood (Winston Churchill and Derry)


Awesome Team!!!!


It’s personally a fulfilling day by contributing to the nature and to the whole society we live in. It’s really amazing to see how much garbage you find in a small woodlot. Most of them seems like people in the neighborhood dump these garbage. We found printers, plastic chairs, tires, and lots and lots of plastic bottles and some others.


These are the amazing team of volunteers from Art of Living and they are such an amazing group to be with. I am so glad and proud to be part of them.

Thanks for all those who came and support this effort.

Most important things to set a goal

Today Satsang someone asked Guruji what are the most important things to set goals,


Guruji answered,

1) Define the goal very clearly

2) Identify and evaluate its repercussion or the effect of the goal

3) Identify the means to achieve the goal

4) Be flexible with the means not all means will lead to the goal and be flexible
