Coming from a world of clubbing, drinking and drugs, 32-year-old Plakor Kovacevic has witnessed a huge transformation as he journeyed with The Art of Living; a journey that led him to inner peace and service.
The growing seed
“I always felt that I had the seed of spirituality in me, it just needed to grow,” shares Plakor. “Sri Sri’s teachings have been like sunlight and water that have helped that seed to grow,” he continues. Plakor,who comes from Croatia, was like any other European youth who liked clubbing. It would make him feel elevated but somewhere in his heart he knew that the joy he experienced was just an illusion. When he first did Sudarshan Kriya in 2002, Plakor experienced a state of natural high, something that he had never experienced before. “The feeling of connectedness clicked and I felt that something expanded in me,” he says.
A U-turn in life
Not so long after he had done the course, Plakor got an opportunity to meet Sri Sri Ravi Shankar in the German Art of Living center. On entering the room, Plakor saw Sri Sri playfully throwing candies at everyone. Plakor got a ‘candy-hit’ too - straight on his forehead, where people say the third eye is located. “I felt it was symbolic. Those days, when we used to go clubbing, the codeword for drugs was ‘candy’. Here the candy that Guruji threw may have meant that from then on; it was only going to be the path of knowledge. That moment I felt that Guruji is definitely someone special in my life and that I was at the right place. It was like a complete U-turn in my life,” he shares gratefully.
