US-INDIA-RELIGION-DIPLOMACY-PAKISTAN-IRAQ
TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY SHAUN TANDON
Indian guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar attends as the guest speaker at the American Enterprise Institute(AEI) June 24, 2014, in Washington, DC. The Indian guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar's efforts to encourage peace in Pakistan ended in an armed attack, but he still believes dialogue is the best path with the Taliban. The globe-trotting yogi, known for his flowing hair and beard and perpetually sunny disposition, had brought his Art of Living Foundation to Pakistan in 2004 in hopes of encouraging stress relief through breathing exercises and non-denominational meditation. Armed gunmen burned down the center in Islamabad in March after charges by some in Pakistan that yoga, rooted in the spiritual history of historic rival India, conflicted with Islamic values.
