Heard an interesting anecdote recently about Sri Sri Ravishankar ji.
Gurudev, as he is fondly known by his disciples, was invited to speak at a global forum.
Several other spiritual and religious leaders were invited as well.
The grand convention hall was packed with spectators, and it was a noisy place.
When Gurudev was invited to the dias, the din was so loud, that he decided to simply wait.
He could have broken in, asking everyone to be silent. But he just waited. For 1, 2, 3, 4… 5 full minutes, outnif the 10 minutes assigned to him. At the 5 minute mark, there was finally pin drop silence in the hall.
What happened next? Concluded tomorrow!
