India’s Jagadish “Jaggi” Vasudev (Sadhguru), 64, has made a name for himself around the world for his unquestionable love for yoga, spirituality and the “save the earth” campaign.
On Wednesday, August 3, 2022, Sadhguru played a round of golf with cricket legend Brian Charles Lara at the Port of Spain St Andrews Golf Course in Trinidad and Tobago.
All over the world, golf courses are known as green belt boundaries that preserve nature as they house various species of flora and fauna as well as water bodies (streams, rivers and lakes).
To begin with, Sadhguru has been teaching yoga in southern India since 1982.
In 1992, he founded the Isha Foundation near Coimbatore, which operates an ashram and yoga center that conducts educational activities.
Sadhguru is also a proponent of spirituality. Recently, he officially launched the Save Soil movement, an important initiative to reverse desertification and ensure food security across the globe.
Some of its annual open events include; Lunar, Thaipusam, Guru Purnima, Guru Purnima with Devi, Mahashivratri, Navratri and Yaksha.
Sadhuguru received the Padma Vibhushan, the second highest civilian award from the Government of India, in 2017 in recognition of his contribution to the field of spirituality.
Lara is a former international cricketer from Trinidad, widely recognized as one of the greatest batsmen of all time.
He played for Trinidad and Tobago (1987-2008), Transvaal (1992-1993), Warwickshire (1994-1998) and most recently Southern Rocks (2010).
Lara is the director of the Pearl and Bunty Lara Foundation, which is a charity in memory of his parents that aims to address health and social care issues.
He is also an Ambassador for Sport of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, and travels on a diplomatic passport to promote his country around the world.
