Spiritual guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar urges people to lead healthy lives in Delhi

New Delhi, Feb 6 (ANI): Spiritual guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar shared his vision of a healthy life and a stable mind at a healthcare conference held at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) here on Saturday.

Educating people on health and mind, Ravi Shankar said the word 'health' in Sanskrit means 'an enlightened being'.
