County Executive Rich Fitzgerald issued a proclamation to declare 22 June as Sri Sri Ravi Shankar Day to ‘honour him for his work as a global humanitarian, spiritual leader and peace envoy.’
The citation read, “Gurudev focuses on advocating harmony amid cultural diversity; his efforts to unite diverse communities through volunteerism and social initiatives to reduce inner-city violence and crime, are only eclipsed by his initiatives that bring cultures and communities together during conflict and a global leader, Gurudev has inspired a wave of volunteerism and service with more than one million people worldwide dedicated to building empowered communities….”
Apart from 25 cities that celebrate days in his honour, Gurudev has also received the Highest Civilian Honours from 5 countries, over 39 honours and awards from Governments across the world, and 26 Honorary Doctorates, in recognition of his global humanitarian work.
Between September 29 and 1 October, Gurudev will also lead one of the largest gatherings for peace and celebration of cultural diversity at the National Mall, Washington DC, at The World Culture Festival.
