The Hindu-derived meditation movement, The Art of Living (AOL),
founded in 1981 by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar in Bangalore, has grown
into a global organization which claims presence in more than 150
countries. Stephen Jacobs presents the first comprehensive study of
AOL as an important transnational movement and an alternative
global spirituality. Exploring the nature and characteristics of
spirituality in the contemporary global context, Jacobs considers
whether alternative spiritualities are primarily concerned with
individual wellbeing and can simply be regarded as another consumer
product. The book concludes that involvement in movements such as
AOL is not necessarily narcissistic but can foster a sense of
community and inspire altruistic activity.
