Tell me something, do you believe they're here for charity or social welfare only. They charge money for every service then how is it different from any other business organisations. And along with all this if they provide some free service to the society then remember that even business houses provide some free services under the social responsibility feature.

Money may not always be food but food is definitely money.

Ayyo! Ghor Kalyug! Need to present you some moral science stories ..atleast the story of Bali Chakravarthi...who gave away everything to Vaman ....

However agree with ur point of drawing similarities of Modern day spirituality courses and the business organizations...😊

All the best for your debate Championship..its always a pleasure to read your views..

let's consider the three kinds of people who might take this course-

1. poor people. after paying for the course, they might actually be worse off for the experience. 😛 stay away.

2. the mcdonalds and haldiram crowd. forget about just Art of Living, this crowd should actually get to a Art of Fine Living kind of course. 😉 better off spending their money on those courses even if they were useless than spending it on stuff that expands their waist-lines. 😆

3. the uselessly wealthy people. well, at least for the few weeks they are attending the course, it keeps them away from being a nuisance to society, whether on the roads or in nightclubs. 😛 actually gives them something fairly decent and sensible to talk about and think about. money is no object.

hope this helps. 😊

Very true after that they will go for ND concept leaving the course in the middle itself 😊

hope this helps. 😊

Well explained 👏

of course I agree with this post of urs that they have money interest in emancipation since its the US and everything comes with a price tag... we indians try to seek as much value as possible by assuming they are here out of benevolence...😊
