Focusing on the transnational movement of The Art of Living, founded by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, this study examines its global influence and growth since 1981. Stephen Jacobs delves into the characteristics of contemporary spirituality, questioning whether these alternative spiritual practices prioritize individual wellbeing or serve as commodified experiences. By analyzing AOL's reach in over 150 countries, the book offers insights into the complexities of modern spirituality and its implications in a consumer-driven society.
