WORLD SU***DE PREVENTION DAY | September 10

Every life is precious. Every heart deserves to be heard. And no one should have to carry their pain alone.

Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar reminds us that each moment is the start of a new life. Problems will be there in life, but you are bigger than the problem. In moments when life feels overwhelming, what we most need is not judgement, but connection, someone who will listen, someone who will care, someone who will simply be there.

Gurudev encourages us to reach out to those around us. When we see someone struggling, He says “Let us not just walk past them. A conversation, a compassionate presence, a few moments of genuine human connection can bring hope where there seemed to be none.”

Today, on World Su***de Prevention Day, let us make a simple commitment: to notice, to listen, to reach out, and to remind one another that no difficult moment is the whole of life. There is always hope beyond this moment. There is always help. There is always someone who cares.

If you or someone you know is thinking about su***de in Canada, call or text 9-8-8 for the Su***de Crisis Helpline, available 24/7.

With compassion and a commitment to a happier, healthier and more peaceful society, Art of Living Canada 🧡🙌🏼

GURUDEV’s New Year 2026 *Message from Bad Antogast, Germany on New Year Eve satsang* ✨☘️☀️🩷💖🙏🏻🎉🌍💝🥳🪁🎄💗
“Every experience of the past year, pleasant or unpleasant, has made you wiser, deeper, and stronger. Do not regret what has happened, and do not be anxious about what may happen. Enter the New Year knowing you are fortunate, and that you are here to give back to society.”

The busier you are in life, the more important it is to meditate. Meditation is getting back to that serenity which is your original nature.

Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

A woman has the power to be an exceptional peacemaker. Her greatest strengths lie in her emotions, feelings, motivation and inspiration.
In a world torn by conflict and war, it is essential for women to take on prominent roles and greater responsibilities without stress.
When women are determined, they can work wonders!
