I’ve Forgiven Attacker, Says Guru Ravi Shankar

In the wake of an attack yesterday, spiritual guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar has said that he has forgiven his attacker and happy with existing security, said media reports.

Police is yet to identify the gunman who attacked the spiritual guru.

Talking to media at his ashram in the morning, Ravi Shankar said, “I heard a loud noise. But I was in my usual calm self. My driver had a premonition that there could be some kind of attack on me.”

Shankar had a narrow escape yesterday when an unidentified gunman shot at his car while he was on his way back after delivering a discourse, reports said.

“I do not have enemies. However, whoever has done this, I forgive him. I give him amnesty. I invite him to join our satsang course. I will teach him meditation and Sudarshan Kriya,” the spiritual guru was quoted as saying.

The 54-year-old Art of Living founder said that he was happy with the existing security cover, which police stepped up after last evening’s incident, said reports.

Police said that the shell fired by the fire arm has been recovered, reports said.
