New Delhi: The United States Department of State has informed the Art of Living Foundation, founded by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, of threats from extremist organizations like the Tehreek-e-Taliban (TTP). The Art of Living centre received two threat letters from TTP warning of a blast which will kill several followers. Last year, an Art of Living centre on the outskirts of the Pakistan capital Islamabad was set afire allegedly by the Taliban.


Spiritual guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar had visited Pakistan in 2012 and inaugurated the centre for his Art of Living movement. He had also offered to hold talks with the Taliban to usher in peace in the region, saying it would help foster understanding among people with divergent views.


The Centre has asked all the state governments to beef up the security of Art of Living chief Sri Sri Ravi Shankar whenever he visits their state as he is facing death threat from Jehadi militant groups.
