Short YouTube excerpt (uploaded by Vishen Lakhiani) in which Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Sankar argues that no one is born bad; social circumstances lead to antisocial behavior. He describes work with inner-city US gang members who, after reflection and a mindset shift, transform from carrying guns to carrying roses and become compassionate community helpers.
