For me, there has been before and after the reading of the Art of Living: by reading it, I really felt I was touching something essential, real, authentic. Some time later, I enrolled in my first lessons 10J in this practice and since that day, my life has really changed, to the point that I could not imagine. I thought, before taking part in my first class, it was not possible to purify, which could at best only improve our attitudes and behavior. And now I know that we can eradicate very old pain, resentment and anger, to get rid of completely. After all these years, I still withdraw as much money in my practice and I still wonder how I could live without. May you also have the chance to meet the pure Dhamma and reap the greatest benefits.
