The Punjab and Haryana High Court had an unusual visitor today. The matter which the visitor was pursuing was not even listed before any court. On the contrary judges and lawyers both attended a speech rendered by the visitor Sri Sri Ravi Shankar. Lawyers who generally advise others today received some advice on meditation and relaxation.

Welcoming the spiritual leader executive committee members including President Gurinder Singh Attariwala, Vice-president NK Banka and Honorary Secretary Premjit Singh Hundal led him to the function where the former stressed on importance of meditation especially in case of lawyers.

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar during his discourse advised lawyers to practice meditation which is the best medicine for better and stress free living. Giving tips on proper diet, meditation and sound sleep Sri Sri advised all to appreciate criticism and learn the ‘art of living” for a better life. Stating that formalities should have no place in one’s life as they create tensions he made the audience to meditate and realize its beauty. The spiritual leader also mooted the idea for lawyers to take up three cases in a year free of cost.

The Chief Justice presented the leader with a shawl while the Honorary Secretary thanked his Holiness for sparing valuable time to address the lawyers.

The function was attended by the Chief Justice Mukul Mudgal, other judges, lawyers and even the general public.
