About Khurshid Batliwala(Bawa)
With a post graduate in Mathematics from the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay, Khurshed Batliwala, or "Bawa" as he is fondly known (a nick name that has stuck from his IIT days) is an extraordinary personality.
In his own words, he decided "it was better to teach people meditation and make them happy rather than teach them mathematics and make them miserable" and thus chose the unconventional and challenging career path as a faculty member of the Art of Living, sharing the vision of it's founder, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, which is to see a smile on every face on the planet.
Under the guidance of Sri Sri, he and dinesh designed the YES!+ series of courses (Youth Empowerment and Skills). He inspires young people the world over to realize their self identified aspirations... empowering them to lead the lives they want to lead rather than getting stuck with the lives they have to lead!
Along with Dinesh he is the director of WAYE (World Alliance for Youth Empowerment) an NGO which addresses and provides sustainable workable solutions for the contemporary issues faced by young people of our times.
