BANGALORE, INDIA, January 21, 2003: Founder of The Art of Living Foundation, Sri Ravishankar, made quite an impression at the World Conference on Spiritual Regeneration and Human Values. He denounced religious conversion as the defamation of one religion in favor of another and proposed instead that different faiths enter into dialogue to find tolerance. He also called war the worst action of reason and suggested that political leaders turn to spirituality for answers. Attended by many government leaders from around the world and people representing a variety of social groups, the conference carried the common thread of the need for spirituality. Sri Ravishankar called it an opportunity for politicians to go back to their roots and connect with their karma.
