Q: Guruji, do you have any favourites? Who is your favourite person? Which is your favourite Raga and which is your favourite sport?

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: I am not going to answer any of these, because I have none. Once I was in England a long time ago, and a lady asked me, 'Gurudev, what can I make for you for breakfast?' I said, 'Make anything, whatever you like.' Then she said, 'Can I make Dhokla (a vegetarian food item that originates from the Indian state of Gujarat)?' I said, 'Yes, you can make Dhokla.' She asked me, 'Do you like it?' I said, 'Yes.' So, she prepared Dhokla and then she called everyone else and said, 'Gurudev loves Dhokla.' Just imagine what happened. Every day, wherever I went for the next fifteen days, breakfast, lunch and dinner, I got only Dhoklas.
