Dinesh Ghodke is a B. tech. from IIT Mumbai. He, along with Khurshed Batliwala (Bawa) is the director of WAYE (World Alliance for Youth Empowerment) and has been a faculty with the Art of Living for the last 13 years. He has dedicated his life to spread the knowledge of his Guru H. H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar.

Through the YES!+ (Youth Empowerment and skills) workshops he and Bawa designed with the guidance of Guruji, Dinesh has been training youth all over the world to excel in their personal/professional lives and at the same time inspiring them to take up social responsibility.

Since childhood his passion has been to excel in whatever he does. He can really be named as a “born winner”. Be it sports or academics. His tenacity has always helped him to be a cut above the rest. An athlete, a gymnast and also the chess champ of IIT he almost always wins in all the late night board games we play with friends. Dinesh also loves to play football (believe me, even in that he is the best). He is an exercise freak. Joining him for a physical exercise session may prove to be very dangerous because when you think you can’t do it anymore Dinesh has just started. He holds the record in the Art of Living circles for doing the maximum Suryanamaskars at a stretch… 108!!

He also holds the record of being one of the youngest Art of Living teachers at 19 and an Advance course teacher at 22. At a time when most of us are confused and have really no good idea about our own minds and how they work Dinesh had already started teaching the secrets of happy and stress free living to people twice or thrice his age.

He is not only open to learning but is always looking out to squeeze valuable bits of knowledge from people and situations around and then immediately implement it in life. His open mindedness, sincerity, humility and an intense willingness to learn more make him a student par excellence.

As a successful teacher of the Art of Living he so completely fulfills all the criteria, the most important being…. Having a perpetual smile.  That is what he effortlessly carries with him 24/7. The second being, a sense of belongingness towards everyone. He can relate to people in a slum and with equal ease address a conference consisting of the most distinguished and high profile members of the society. Wherever he is in the world Dinesh continues to win hearts and transform lives.

“Presence speaks more than words” if you wish to experience this truth you just need to spend a few moments in his company.  Dinesh embodies peace. He does not just live life. He elegantly glides through it spreading smiles on many faces and kindling love in as many hearts.

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.

A myriad personality, Bawa is committed to utilizing every moment of his time in enriching the lives of people around. A day spent with him could make you have a taste of the most amazing meals (that he has cooked in a jiffy), to listening to beautiful western classical music pieces (that he picks up effortlessly on his piano), to playing the most interesting board games (which he picks up from various parts of the world during his travel) to even discovering the magic of mathematics that you perhaps never knew existed. He enjoys movies with happy endings and is partial to theatre, comedies and musicals being his favourites.

Unlike most of us, Bawa is never satisfied by mere learning and mastering of a skill, he does not rest till he has taught others to master it too. Sometimes you will be laughing uncontrollably at his jokes and wit, othertimes just wondering at his practical wisdom and knowledge.

Apart from conducting youth workshops as an Art of Living senior faculty member, Bawa also conducts interesting workshops such as the Mathemagic, which makes maths fun and interesting, the financial literacy workshop, a seminar on unconventional concepts on money management and wealth generation, and an introductory workshop on western classical music appreciation. He has recently even put together a workshop to teach people how to cook and enjoy the experience!

He is a complete technology geek, and he brings to the table a smooth blend of cutting edge technology and deep knowledge of Indian spirituality and traditions. His passions include computer games, long walks, good food and caring about the environment and animals.

He loves reading and writing, and to everybody’s delight his love for writing has translated to blogging through which it has become easy for all his fans to be updated with the latest in his (and Dinesh’s) life, not to mention, have glimpses of his amazing sense of humour, get to learn beautiful interpretations of mythological stories from different religions (He is a Parsi and his blog includes some beautiful insights into his religion), recreate his recipes, and  read wonderful stories, jokes and anecdotes.

It has been said that as a child we are born innocent but in the process of growing up somewhere we lose our naturalness and innocence at the cost of becoming intelligent. In Bawa you find a unique coexistence of both, a sharp intellect and a heady sense of fun with a child’s innocence and warmth.

  25. anju chopra says:

    JGD! I had done my DSN with Bawa in 2005 in Delhi and he made me sit on ‘HOT SEAT”. Though quite embarrassed at that time - but since then my life has changed. I have become confident and the fears I was carrying - all vanished. Thank you Bawa. May God Bless U.

  26. Roopa Jayaram says:

    Dinesh Bhaiya N Bawa Bhaiya - Its really nice to have great people like you two in our lives. “Role models to many youth across the globe”

  28. Mohan R says:

    Hi,
    I just went through your blog (refeered by Gurpreet Singh,Pune).

    I always think that I know everything, every ‘funda’ of the life. That’s why i have never done such course in my life. Thats the reason why I am excited to learn some funda from you. I will be there in UTSAV Pune from tomorrow (2-5th april).

    Hope to learn some new from you.

    Best wishes,
    Mohan

  29. Nizam says:

    You know what..!
    You will find less word to compliment this two divine gifts…
    but the way the writer expressed profile of both… itself it is “kabile tarif”

    with lots of love

  32. Preeti. says:

    We all have a magic moment, where..all of a sudden…the essence of existence…the joy of love…the beauty of giving….the preciousness of each breath…It all agglomerates into one wondrous experience called, “life”. Bau taught me that, when…lets say, I was about to stop the fight for life. I’m alive, and with G-Dev and Bau in it, boy is it a party-hardy-rock-n-roll time! :)…Gratitude..My heart is full of gratitude!
    Can’t wait to meet you again!
    Jai Gurudeva
    Love.

  36. Sat says:

    Think im one of the unlucky ones whos yet to spend as much as time with you 2 as the YES+ guys are spending with you 2. I would love to be a part of the YES+team but my teachers are holding me on to Part 1. I would love to be a part of the YES+team. I havent been lucky enough to taste your cooking BAWA but I did have the previlige of doing mmy 1st AOL course with you(YES+) Prior to that I ran out of a Part 1 course deciding it wasnt my cup of tea. Today I am on this path thanks to you 2 and Guruji. Hoping to be a part of the YES+ bandwagon soon.

    Cheers

    Sorry for this off coloured post
    please laugh and let the others cry ..
    sorry joking ….

    What in the world is stopping you from turning down people’s polite requests?
    Is their way of writing too rude or what?
    Do you think they are arrogant or what ?
    If so are you not good at handling these two things?

    What in the world did i ask you for ?
    Did i ask you for a million dollers.
    I just told you that my slate is clean and cannot be washed.
    It defines the teachings of all i cherish including my parents.
    I just told you to communicate this to the other blogger
    (for his own good)
    As he will grow up honouring and respecting the opinion of all the others.
    with teachers like you he should be doing that …he has not .
    you are his teacher and you should own his statements …
    rather than disregard mine .
    Am i right till here ?
    Now ,
    what is the challange you face doing so?
    is it a life threatening situation or what?

    AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN i have told you
    if you don’t remember write it down somewhere

    show some transparency in your dealings.
    show some transparency in your dealings.
    show some transparency in your dealings.

    by not doing so you will hold the wrong one and let go the right one ..
    i am sorry but i am no one ..

    that’s all i have to say
    you feel my dear , plez respond
    i will wait for some more time
    but not till the world ends
    I have better things in life than chasing people like this.

    Your silence shocks me now .

    Thanks

    Jai Gurudeva!
    Bawa nd Dinesh bhaiya ur pics r just soooooo amazing…..its always a pleasure watching u both nd reading d articles at ur blog….u both r so divine nd perfect….WOW!what an inspiration….
    I have a question…..
    There is some kind of bondage in the mind,few past impressions which r making me feel really miserable…..from a past few days i only feel like talking to guruji,reading his knowledge nd listening to bhajans nd i start crying just by lukin at guruji’s pics…nd i m disinterested in many other things….is it ok?,i really don’t know till what time this phase will last…pls let me know i m really confused…..
    luv u both….

    Jai Gurudev!
    Dear Bawa & Dinesh Da, I wanna inform you that it was the best experience for the YES+ team Nashik. We had voting awareness campaign for 4 days. Walking rally (Padyatra) was one of the part of it. near abt 200 youth participated in ths activity. Result was amazing. Ratio of voting was really increased. media also co-operated us. it felt rly nice tht as a youth we did something for our great country & main thing we experienced gurugrace in it also.

    JAI GURUDEV BAU n DINESH BHAYIYA….!
    I have just done YES!++ from you in December 2009 (WINTER BREAK 09). It was a brain storming experience. I loved the YES!+ T-shirts and pens. We made our first GURU STORY. First time in my life i climb on the moving train to reach Banglore on time. This ADVANCE COURSE will be my best NEW YEAR GIFT from GURUJI. Now i love to do Meditation and Surya Namaskar. I am feeling blessed that you and DINESH bhayiya are our teachers and much more than that.

  132. vijayta says:

    Dear Bau,
    I am sure you must have heard about the Save Tiger movement. I am just back from Sariska and Panna Tiger reserve, and was very sad to hear about the horror poaching stories. Am wondering if you with your incredible wit and intelligence, can post something about it on your blog or speak about some workable inputs/solutions/suggestions for masses, in the aol courses.

    Our national animal is fighting for its life.From around 40,000 at the turn of the last century, there are just 1411 tigers left in India.If we don’t act now, we could lose this part of our heritage forever.

    cheers:Vijayta

    They slip away across the universe
    Pools of sorrow waves of joy
    are drifting thorough my open mind
    Possessing and caressing me

    Jai guru deva om
    Nothing’s gonna change my world
    Nothing’s gonna change my world
