Project Utthan is a new initiative aimed at creating model
districts, being piloted in East Delhi. The project objective is
‘Empowering Souls and Uplifting Society’, and includes several
sub-components that lead to positive transformation. Program Disha
is one such sub-component, which in collaboration with Delhi
Police, specifically targets the root cause of crime.
Under Program Disha, 1000 frequent offenders, enlisted in 16 police
stations of East Delhi, experienced the ‘Youth Leadership Training
Programme’ (YLTP); 200 more are participating in an upcoming
programme, and these numbers are expected to grow steadily in the
coming days. The Program intends to uplift these individuals, and
help them take responsibility for themselves, their society, state
and the country.
Addressing the public on the successful completion of the first
YLTP, Sri Sri gave the reformed delinquents the title of
‘Karnadhars’. He emphasised the need to help those in crime and
give them a second chance to get back to the mainstream. He urged,
“Expand your vision and see that inside every culprit there is a
victim crying for help. If you heal the victim, you will eliminate
crime from the planet.”
The ‘Karnadhars’ had gathered at the Yamuna Sports Complex to share
their life-transforming experiences and interact with Sri Sri for
further guidance on how they can contribute positively for
community development in their respective areas.
Maheish Girri, International Director, The Art of Living and local
dignitaries addressed the thousands who thronged Yamuna Sports
Complex. Emphasizing on the objective of Program Disha, Maheish
Girri said, “As the name suggests, this Program aims to give right
direction. No spiritually awakened man or woman will sell his
conscience and take a step in the wrong direction. Love, truth,
non-violence and self awareness are the pillars of a crime-free
society, and this is what we are striving to awaken, reinforce and
strengthen through this programme.”
Program Disha is a singular instance of the remarkable synergy
built between the Delhi Police (DCP East District) and a non-profit
organization, The Art of Living, to address the concern of safety
and security – the building blocks of a civilized society. Art of
Living aims to bridge the gap between the disciplinary body and the
masses through meaningful and relevant intervention.
To further spread awareness about Project Utthan at the grass root
level, The Art of Living initiated the ‘Manavta Yatra’ on Oct 27,
2012, which is slated to travel to 220 slums and re-settlement
areas of East Delhi in the coming year. Several workshops,
trainings and initiatives are on the anvil that will ensure a
steady momentum to Project Utthan.
The Art of Living Foundation is constantly endeavouring to develop
innovative strategies to transform negative elements of our society
into positive forces of change.
