Sri Sri Ravi Shankar Introduction The Sixth International Women’s Conference, organized by The International Association for Human Values (IAHV), Ved Vignan Maha Vidyapeeth and the Art of Living was held at the Art of Living International Center in Bangalore, India from February 7th - 9th, 2014. Delegates from 60 countries participated while thousands more viewed it via webcast. This year’s theme, “Harmony: Evolution towards Perfection”, sought to highlight individual approaches and qualities that respond to the challenges of the 21st century and find innovative solutions for restoring harmony at all levels, from the individual to the society. Only when we are calm and relaxed we can connect with our inner self, our intuition, and come up with spiritual strength to restore harmony in difficult and challenging situations. Apart from supporting the cause of education, the conference was an incredible platform for women from diverse mindsets to come together in dialogue to resolve to create a more harmonious society. Women from India, Pakistan, Iraq, Asia Pacific, Africa, the Arab world, Israel, Western and Eastern Europe, North and South America came together in a true spirit of celebration and meaningful discussion to discover the role of inner peace in establishing harmony in Society.
