Profile of Smt. Bhanu Narasimhan:
An international meditation teacher, who is also leading a movement for providing free education to children in India, and a best-selling author, Bhanumathi Narasimhan, plays all these roles with ease, much to the amazement of many who seek to balance their inner and outer lives. She is also the younger sibling and follower of humanitarian and global spiritual master, Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Founder of The Art of Living.
Bhanumathi today travels around the world to introduce millions on the path of meditation through the now popular Sahaj Samadhi Meditation program of the Art of Living. She has taught in over a hundred countries. As stress related disorders increasingly find way into peoples' lives, the relevance and benefits of the program she teaches, has resonated with the scientific research community. A study on the effects of Sahaj Samadhi Meditation on the cardiovascular health, nervous system and clinical depression was widely acknowledged by the World Psychiatry Association last October.
Today, she leads the women welfare and child-care initiatives of the Art of Living. Notably, the Gift-a-Smile project, one of the organization's initiatives, supports 435 schools with over 58,904 underprivileged children across India.
She has also authored a biography of Gurudev titled 'Gurudev: On The Plateau Of The Peak-The Life of Sri Sri Ravi Shankar'. Being the one who has closely witnessed the unfolding of the mystical life of the Master, she has come with a "Masterpiece" that captures not just the life of Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, but also the spiritual essence of the life and the influence it has had on many. The book has been on the list of best-selling books on Amazon ever since it released. She has authored two other books, Tejasvini and Lalitha, which expound the spiritual significance and mystical meaning behind popular scriptures and practices.
Bhanumathi holds a Master's Degree in Sanskrit Literature from Bangalore University. She is married with two sons, daughters-in-law and grandchildren. She lives in Bangalore, India and travels all over the world to share the profound wisdom of spirituality and meditation in particular.
