Joy Gurudev ! Ńośtradamvs Mìstákë ??

His Holiness Sri Sri Ravi Shankar’s (HHSSRS for short) Big Bash concluded with over 1 million visitors to Jakkur near Bangalore. I was witness to the respect, reverence and adulation that lakhs of people expressed. In twenty five years HHSSRS has won over millions of people in nearly 200 countries. Makes me wonder…
The AOL Foundation (Art of Living, not America Online) expected 25 lakh visitors at Jakkur from all over the world for the silver jubilee extravaganza. Assuming 25 % of AOL members were expected to make it that puts the number of ‘devotees’ (shall we call them) at 1 crore. The Sudarshan Kriya being as effective as it is, one would expect heavy Word-of-mouth advertising. I presume every member will bring in one person every year into the fold (Now, one person a year is not an outrageous assumption). And that every new person brought into the Art of Living fold will continue to induct one new member a year.
Now, I suppose the World population in Year 2050 will be 900 crores (projecting from India now at 100+ crores expected to be 150 crores by 2050).
Given that 44 more years ahead of 2050 and using the higher secondary formula of n(n+1)/2 we find .. Hallelujah… the entire global population constitute the membership of the Art of Living Foundation.

Which begs me to ask the question… Was Nostradmus confused between celestial bodies when he predicted about the Messiah from the East “He will have a name related to the moon” ? (Chapter15 - C.2, Q. 28)
