I am not a big Bush fan, but let's give him some space.

 

Read the following extract from Bush's interaction with Sri Sri

RaviShankar, the relevant part of which is cut-paste below.

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar is the first Indian spiritual leader to be

received in the Oval Office by a president of the United States.

 

The seer was visiting the White House for discussions with senior

officials of the Bush Administration's Faith-Based Initiative, when

officials asked him if he would like to meet with Bush. Almost

immediately they arranged for an Oval Office meeting between the two.

 

Bush embraced Sri Sri Ravi Shankar soon as he entered the Oval Office,

and said, 'I am very glad you are here and please keep us in your

prayers." He then asked the guru if he could take a picture with him,

and called for the White House photographer to do the needful.

 

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar later participated in a prayer meeting presided

over by Bush, at the White House East, which was followed by a

reception for several participants belonging to various faiths.

 

Jai Ma!

Namah Shivaya,

It is not unusual for U.S. presidents to attend services of religions

other than their own. It is just

courtesy. This is very different than asking someone to participate in

YOUR religious service.

Would Bush go to a Jewish wedding? Or a Catholic wedding?
