Talk:Art of Living Foundation

the article in its current form does not conform to the guide line: "wikipedia is not a soap-box". the article's content is mainly advocacy, self-promotion, and advertising for the "Art of Living" group and its seminars and other activities. the article should deal with the subject in a more critical manner.

yeah i have done the part 1 course of the AOL and sometimes i don't know what to think. sri sri ravi shankar and his AOL could possibly bea huge scam or the man who is changing the world, the new jesus...

god bless you!

this article contains many unverified claims and generally appears to be praising AOLF and Ravishankar instead of providing impartial information. __________ I do not think the page should be merged with the survey of Hindu organisations. Even though AOL started from India, it does not preach any religion - Not chistianity, not hinduism, nothing. Even though generally assumed to be religious organisation AOL is very clearly a spritual organisation that claims no alliance with any religion in the world. However, I agree that the page on AOL survey should be merged into the main page for AOL as the AOL survey page is a skeleton page with little or no information.

There are many NPOV issues that need to be resolved in this article. The lack of cites is evidence enough of this. --Mattarata 02:49, 5 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

_____________ Lets try and resolve those issues. Maybe if you list some points that you think are raise concerns of neutrality, we can either delete or find reliable sources for the same. 71.202.141.40 00:29, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Section =Founder: Sri Sri Ravishankar= contains a sentence that needs to be cited. Section =Development Programmes= also contains a secntence that needs to be cited, and the last sentence in that section should also probably be cited. Section ==International Association for Human Values (IAHV)== in the last sentence of the first paragraph should maybe be cited. Fixing these few things will be enough to remove the tag. Also 71.202.141.40 you should register.
