Abstract

The objective of the paper was to accentuate the relevance and contribution of spiritual practice in accelerating the inner transformation process in the individuals leading towards well-being. For the research, Sudarshan Kriya of The Art of Living Foundation is considered as the spiritual practice. Responses from 383 respondents were gathered using structured questionnaire about the changes in their behavioural patterns relating to their own self after practicing the Kriya. A time gap of 3 years was kept after they learnt the practice. The data suggested that there were perceivable positive differences in their lives after they were introduced to Sudarshan Kriya. Post spiritual practice, they could handle emotion easily, maintain better health and understand life values. Positive developments in an individual can come through spiritual practices and help live a better life.
