In 1983 Sri Sri held the first Art of Living course in Europe in Switzerland. In 1986 he travelled to Apple Valley, California in the USA to conduct the first course to be held in North America.
Sri Sri teaches that spirituality is that which enhances human values such as love, compassion and enthusiasm. It is not limited to any one religion or culture.
Hence it is open to all people. He feels the spiritual bond we share as part of the human family is more prominent than nationality, gender, religion, profession, or other identities that separate us.
