Mr.Cassam Uteem, President Of
Mauritius:
The Brahma
Kumaris World Spiritual University is the right organization to implement
the IYCP project as in the past the University has successfully coordinated
Million Minutes of Peace Appeal and Global Co-operation for a Better World.
We are living in a world where unfortunately a culture of violence has
become a way of life. Violence breeds violence and can hamper peace and
development. We must imbibe the value ofrespect. We must respect our self,
our parents, our neighbours, our elders and our environment.
Mr.Abdoulaye Deiye ,Member Of
Parliament,Senegal:
The modern education system has given rise to a sense of ego, illusion
of power and unnecessary desires in people. Spirituality is the unifying
principle of all religions. I find that the relevance of the Sufi
teachingsare confirmed after my visit to the Brahma Kumaris Academy for A
Better World here.
Justice V.R Krishna Aiyer ,Former
Judge Of Supreme Court:
Mount Abu now represents a worldwide movement. I have toured many
countries. Wherever I went, I found Brahma Kumaris centres. Once I had been
to Newziland and Australia, as directed by Maharshi Mahesh Yogi. In all
these countries I could witness the presence of Brahma Kumaris centres. Two
years back when I visited New Jersey in United States, I found out a center
of Brahma Kumaris with the help of telephone directory. The head of these
centers was a Brahma Kumari who was very much familiar to me. Next day was
Deepavali festival. She insisted that I should participate in the function.
It was a period when I suffered mental depression. During this period I had
been to Sri Satya Sai Baba also. I visited the BK center at New York also
and spent two hours there. Then I could listen the voice of shanti (peace).
Absorbing the message of shanti I returned. To see Brahma Kumaris and Kumars
indulge in meditation was a real experience. When my sister Dr. Meenakshi
desired to spend one week in peace, I directed her to Mount Abu. Later, my
niece and her husband went there. It is their firm belief and conviction
that real sanctity pervaded in the premises of Ishwariya Vidyalaya at Mount
Abu. Now I stand before you on the basis of all these experiences. My
intention is not to deliver speech as a scholar in Bhagavath Geetha. It
requires not only talent and scholarship but also realexperience. Motivation
and inspiration are essential to convey spiritual message.
Sh.V.S.Sonfranchuk ,Under
Secretary General Of U.N.O:
In these days world peace can be possible only through
re-establishment of moral values. Now the countries of the world have
started understanding the importance of human values and solve their
problems through mutual co-operation. Now the United Nations is not a World
government but a place for peace oriented efforts by the countries and a
place where they can find solution of their problems. The Non- Governmental
Organizations (N. G. Os) play an important role in activities organized by
UNO for establishment of peace. Prajapita Brahma kumaris Ishwariya Vishwa
Vidyalaya has an important role in it on account of which it has been
honoured with Peace Messenger award. There is an urgent need to constantly
strive for bringing transformation in the world. This day a change is
visible is every field -– political, social oreconomic.
Sh. Rajiv Gandhi , Former Prime
Minister Of India:
For establishing World Peace, apart from disarmament, there is also
required a change in the mentality of those who are trying to show their
authority in the world. The Disarmament is progressing fast but mere
annihilation of arsenals is not sufficient. There is a dire need to change
the mentality of the dominant countries that use them, so that the
possibility of the use of nuclear arsenals is totally eliminated. For having
Universal Brotherhood and Peace in the World, re-establishment of human
values is necessary and our country has been continuing this legacy. Mahatma
Gandhi got freedom for the country through the Principles of non- violence
and without any jealousy or ill will. Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru based on
these principles, sustained human values through Socialism, Democracy and
Secularism. Likewise, Mrs. Indira Gandhi tried her best to spread these
ideals on national and international level. There is an urgent need to give
up narrow mentality and develop mutual goodwill and co-operation. This will
provide a new direction to world peace and development. If we want to take
human civilization to its zenith, we have to eradicate all sorts of
discrimination. The efforts of Prajapita Brahma Kumaris Ishwariya Vishwa
Vidyalaya, Mt. Abu, in the direction of World Peace are highly commendable.
Here, two things have impressed me: Self-Transformation is a pre-requisite
for World Transformation And There should be peace in the mind. It is only
peace in the minds of lacs of people, which will bring World Peace.Knowledge
and Science based on Spiritual Power will rule the World
P.V Narsimha Rao , Prime Minister
Of India:
This is a universal conference in which there will be discussions on
how to develop and to promote harmony. Efforts will be initiated to make
people understand its significance. I believe that everything starts in the
mind—be it violence or non-violence; quarrels or brotherly feel-ings. War
does not be-gin with weapons but it emanates from the mind. As a thought
spreads, it ultimately becomes destructive or beneficial. So, which
direction should the mind take is not the order of today only. For thousands
of years, in all civiliza-tions, such endeavours have taken place. Many
cultures disappeared because they could not fulfill these responsibilities.
In their history, a devastating cycle of events occurred from which they
could not escape. The upheaval in society was uncontrollable. Unable to
quell it, such civilizations were ultimately destroyed. But the culture of
Bharat has continued, which people say is 5000 years old. I think it is much
older than that. You could trace it up to 5000 years, but you cannot even
imagine that it could be thousands of years beyond that. We have a lofty and
resplendent heritage, and we should be proud of it. But we, the heirs of
such a great civilization, have some responsibilities, which we should
understand very well. Today, we are talk-ing about har-mony. We are talking
about sym-phony. Har-mony or sym-phony exists where there are different
tones. There would be no need for har-mony if there were only one tone or
one sound. According to classical music, there are some sounds, which are
concordant, and there are other sounds, which are discordant. These various
tones co-exist. Harmony takes place only when there is an arrangement
between the concordant and discordant tones, which results in music, and not
clamour. - 27 - Are we making such an arrangement? Are we able to accomplish
it? Do we have the atmosphere for creating such an arrange-ment? Are we also
making efforts for creating such an atmosphere? We should ask ourselves
these questions. I believe that such an initiative is divided into two
parts. The first part comes from the inside and the other half comes from
the outside. Both are needed. The leaders of society, including the
government, perform the external part. Sometimes they are successful in this
and sometimes they are not because that part is incomplete. The effort is
half-baked.
The other is the effort, which comes from within. When it is said
in the scriptures that “Religion has the highest place in the world,’ we
mean that religion is the foundation and the support of the world. But if in
the name of religion, violence erupts, then I think that there is some
misunderstanding in religion. There is something wrong; therefore, we should
examine it. This is why when the word ‘spirituality’ is mentioned here, then
the word ‘religion’ becomes more distinguished. That distinction enables all
the religions to merge unknowingly. Which religion blends where is not known
because of the assimilation. The efforts you exert here may not bear fruit
immediately. But the initiatives are very powerful and very effective. This
effort is perpetuated to many. One person sows a tiny seed somewhere, which
reaches 60 countries and becomes a big tree. There is definitely some power,
which may not be in me, in you or in many. But it can be in one individual.
That is an asset. How much can we take from Him? He is an ocean. You will
get the amount of water from it depending on the size of your vessel. Dip in
a tumbler and you get a tumbler full of water. Dip in a pot and you get a
pot full of water. The question is how worthy are we? We wish to increase
our worthiness either through education or through spiritual awakening. It
is in our culture to speak profundities; to sing hymns praising God and to
communicate in a comprehensible manner so that it touches the heart. This is
a grandiose heritage, which has come a long way; A very powerful heritage
indeed. It goes on and on and we should never renounceit.
Rama Devi , Governor of Himachal
Pradesh:
When we review the current education scenario, we understand the need
of value education. In Himachal Pradesh, we are giving high priority to
education and have also initiated value education in schools. The government
has provided several facilities to spread literacy in every district.
Children should be taught about social or political issues at an appropriate
age when they would understand them properly. Mixing politics with education
at higher levels is eating into the roots of our education system. Students
are spoiling their lives after getting involved in party politics. Student
life is the time when they have to be taught about values respect,
compassion, love for nature etc. Prajapita Brahma, the founder of
Brahmakumaris, was a great visionary who empowered a group of women
sixty-four years ago, andthey are now doing a great work in value education
around the world.
Gen. B.K.N. Chibber , Governor of
Punjab:
I came in contact with this B.K.I.V.V. a few years back when I was
stationed at Amritsar. I have studied in depth and experienced Rajayoga
meditation taught by the BKs. Purity vibrates from this place. We have
learnt from various scriptures that our God Father is one, our true religion
is one and our ancient culture is the same, but the practical aspect of this
can be seen here. This Ishwariya Vishwa Vidyalaya leads one to the path of
spiritual awakening of moral upliftment. Today we need the world peace the
most. World peace, however, can be attained by inculcating divine qualities.
Today not only in India but also in the whole world, there is a dire
necessity of noble behaviour, goodwill, and universalbrotherhood as preached
and practised by the Brahmakumaris Ishwariya Vishwa Vidyalaya.
Mr Arvind Dave, Governor of
Arunachal Pradesh:
It gives me great pleasure to be at the World Headquarters of the
Prajapita Brahma Kumaris Ishwariya Vishwa Vidyalaya at Mt. Abu to interact
with educators on a subject, which greatly contributes to creating a Better
Society. I have the added pleasure in being here today as I not only belong
to Rajasthan, which houses the world Headquarters of this Vidyalaya, but am
also the Head of the State of Arunchal Pradesh, where the Brahma Kumaris
have been doing commendable work for the past 25 years. Since I take pride
for both these reasons, it becomes essential that I briefly narrate to you
the pioneering activities of the Brahma Kumaris in my State of Arunchal
Pradesh as well as in the other seven Sister States of the North East,
including Sikkim. The Prajapita Brahma Kumaris are well represented in all
the seven North Eastern States. For the North Eastern Region, they have
Divisional Offices in Guwahati and Tinhsukia, both of which started over two
decfades back. While the Guwahati Divisional Office is connected with the
Brahma Kumari Branches in Meghalaya, Manipur, Tripura and part of lArunchal
Pradesh, the Tinsukia Divisional Office over-views the Brahma Kumari
branches in Nagaland, Mizoram and in parts of Arunchal Pradesh, their main
branches are in Itanagar and Naharalagun with informal contacts in Yinkiong
and Ziro. Brahma Kumaris have fairly widespread activities in the North
Eastern Region under a sister organization named “Raja Yoga Education and
Research Foundation”.(RERF). So far 17 wings of this Foundation have been
formed to serve the people from various spiritual backgrounds and to
providepractical applicatioin lof wisdom.
LK Advani ,Union Home Minister:
I think whosoever has made efforts and endeavored for social change,
has done so in his own way. Some have excelled in the spiritual field,
others in the social or the political field. They will realize that EQ is
surely greater than IQ, but even greater than EQ is the Moral Quotient (MQ).
Emotional Quotient is greater than the Intelligence Quotient and Moral
Quotient is greater than the Emotional Quotient. Even if one has good IQ and
EQ but no moral or spiritual power, there cannot be full development of the
personality and therefore one cannot bring about the desired, benevolent
transformation in society. I appreciate that in institutions like Prajapita
Brahma Kumaris Ishwariya Vishwa Vidyalaya, the Brahma Kumaris are putting
forth best efforts to enhance this Moral Quotient in society. Their
activities arehighly appreciable.
Atal Bihari Vajpayee , Leader Of
Opposition:
On arriving here, I became aware of this newly built Academy for A
Better World. I was also told about the Global Hospital, the activities of
which have been highly praised. It is a matter of great pleasure that your
organization has constantly been progressing; it is a developing
organization. You are performing the task of making this world a better
place to live in. This has been our aim since ancient times. There is both
an angel as well as an animal instinct in man—constant endeavors are
required to awaken angelic and divine propensities lying dormant in him, to
inspire him on the path of becoming a deity from human being—Nar Se Narayan—and
also check andkeep the animal instincts in him under control.
Cheick Alyn Daw Diop , Sufi
Minister Of Senegal:
Today youth are looking for role models, great leaders who would
inspire them to work for the betterment of humanity. The efforts of Brahma
Kumaris in guiding and inspiring thousands of youth all over the world are
highly praiseworthy. Today’s youth are confused and disillusioned. But they
can find an example of leading a meaningful life in this institution. It is
regrettable that education being given in schools these days usually
neglects the moral and spiritual development of children and youth. It is
essential to impart high values and ethicsto youth during their formative
years because their minds are like a piece of clay or a blank paper.
Nara ChandraBabu Naidu ,Chief
Minister Of Andhra Pradesh:
There is an urgent need to have spiritual discipline in life, which
only can bring the environment of peace in the world. We observe discipline
and order in Brahmakumaris organization. If even 10% of that is followed in
politics, there can be a lot of change. The expressions of peace and
happiness on the faces of the participants here show that the devotion of
B.K. brothers and sisters and faith in God has achieved that what couldn’t
be made possible by renowned management consultants. Along with value-based
life, firm determination to achieve our goal and Scientific Temper can only
lead a nation to prosperity. There are many qualities lying dormant in human
beings, which need to be harnessed and channelised in the appropriate
direction. If there are some weaknesses in us, we should try to overcome
them. Love, affection and positive thinking only can create a better future
for mankind. Swami Vivekanand had said if our present is good, our future
will definitely be bright. It means, to create future is in our own hands.
Though advancement in Information Technology is required for present age,
man cannot get satisfaction if spiritual aspect is overlooked. These days
there are plenty of physical comforts; still there is stress and tension in
life only because moral values have been relinquished. The ideal of simple
living and high thinking has been forgotten. Unless we adopt spiritual and
moral values in life, the vision of creating a peaceful and prosperous world
cannot be fulfilled. It is highly appreciable that you have combined science
with spirituality. There is facility of simultaneous translation in 16
languages in this Diamond Hall. I would like to associate with the
activities aimed at world peace. I would like to visit this place again and
again to get valuable teachings. We haveissued instructions in Andhra
Pradesh to avail the services of B.K. organization for value edutation.
Justice Ranganath Mishra , Former
Chief Justice Of India:
This Dialogue is going to help us to discover our inner capacities. Man
does not understand that he is a part of a large system created by God. The
human system consists of physical and subtle aspects. But we normally,
become so concerned with the external world and the spiritual part of us
always gets neglected. While we take physical food, we do not take mental or
spiritual food. Mental food is to imbue oneself with spirituality. While the
intention of the system is the restoration of balance of mind and body, it
is invariably lost. “Man has landed into a lot of problems today through
lack of balance. Just as when a motorcar battery loses power it needs
re-charging, so we need the charging of soul. The beauty of this place is to
keep thebalances very much alive”.
Justice A.S Qureshi ,Ex-judgeOf
Gujarat High Court:
I had a great pleasure to attend Jurists Conference on Values for
a Better World and Meditation Retreat, I heartily congratulate Brahma
Kumaris Ishwariya Vishwa-Vidyalaya for organizing this magnificent
conference which had attracted about 700 Jurists from different parts of
Indian and abroad which include about dozen of supreme court and High Court
Judge, ministers, eminent lawyers, high police and taxation officers. Brahma
Kumaris Ishwariya Vishwa-Vidyalaya is an educational institution, which is
imparting spiritual and moral education and technique of Raja Yoga without
which academic education is just hollow. In fact, Brahma Kumaris by their
dedication, purity of character are performing the same function, which in
old days was performed by our saints, sages and seers. I have toured
different countries of the world land I have found their centers in all
important countries and in all continents and in fact, they are serving as
Spiritual Ambassadors of India all over the globe. Dadi Prakashmaniji’s
participation in “World Religions Conference”: in Chicago in Sept, 1993 has
been a great achievement, not only for Rajasthan but also for whole of
India. Even in the U.N. has applauded the activities of this institution by
conferring award of Peace Messenger on it. India’s only gift to the world
can be the light spiritual, which Brahma Kumari sisters are imparting.
The work done by this institution in uplifting the status and
dignity of women is matchless. The ladies who were considered dependants
upon men throughout their lives: on the father in childhood, on the husband
when young and on their children in old age, have been transformed into the
teachers of mankind by the inspiration of Shiva Baba through the corporeal
medium of Pitashri Brahma. This is the only institution in the world, which
is being run and managed mostly by ladies and that too most successfully.
Brahma Kumaris have entered the social field also and have set up Global
Hospital at Mount Abu, which is a boon for the area. In this hospital
medicine has been combined with meditation with marvelous curing results. I
have learnt that this hospital has acquired the reputation of being “a
Paradise for the patient”. The up coming Gyan Sarovar Complex is bound to do
unique service for spreading spiritual and moral education. It will not be
an exaggeration to say that success is the name-Brahma Kumaris and you
richly deserve it. Great Sikandra tried to conquer the world by sword but
failed. Brahma Kumaris are trying to make earth as one country and mankind
its citizens by their message of love in which mission, I wish them a
success assuring them that whatever co-operation or help they need from me,
Iwill deem it as my duty to give.
A.P.J Abdul Kalam , President of
India:
I am indeed very happy to be here in this divine environment of Om
Shanti Retreat Centre and also it is a great honour for me to be in the
midst of the spiritual leaders of Brahma Kumaris Academy for A Better World.
The evolution of good human beings is indeed a big challenge for the world
community. I was asking myself, what would be the components of such a
mission? Will it consist of education system to generate enlightened
citizens? That means, a combination of learning with value systems. This
process can take place for twelve years during a child’s education. This
covers one third of the population at any point of time in our country. The
second important component will be the religions graduating into spiritual
movement. Third and most vital component is the poverty eradication by
attaining economic prosperity resulting in high employment potential.
Now the question we have in front of us is, will it eliminate the
international terrorism? Will it eliminate the cross-border terrorism? Will
it remove the communal clashes? Above all, will it remove the violence in
mind and body? Friends, we can see a beautiful connectivity between heart,
character, nation and the world. How to inject righteousness in the human
heart? This is indeed the purpose of human creation; that is divinity. What
is the type of planet we live in? We are going through a complex situation
as the many and many human beings are completely at war with themselves,
with society and with nation. I would like to discuss about the study on the
dynamics of war on the planet Earth that I have done a decade ago. Dynamics
of Warfare It is evident that man lives on wars. We distinctly see that
pattern of warfare has three parts: unto 1920, 1920-1990; after 1990; the
first part was human warfare period. Motivation for human warfare was either
territorial greediness or wealth ambitions or religious domination, which in
combination later led to the First World War in 1914. The second period-
1920-1990 - was a mechanized warfare period. During this period the world
graduated to the use of new mechanized weapons and platforms - battle tanks,
fighter aircraft and submarines.
The motivation was ideological conflicts between two societies,
one side former Soviet Union and other side USA and related countries.
Second World War also witnessed the disaster by the deployment of nuclear
bombs on two cities of Japan. Also, it resulted in accumulation of 10,000
nuclear warheads each side. During the third period from 1990, I expected
economic warfare leading to globalization. Supremacy of the technology led
to technology denials and control regimes separating the nations as
“Developed”, “Developing” and “ Under Developed”. In 2003, the world is
facing a new kind of warfare, integrated situation of religious conflicts,
ideological differences and economic-market warfare. We have witnessed
always that war adds to wars. Of course, there will be a time gap. How do we
combat these complex integrated phenomena of conventional warfare threat,
cross border terrorism, insurgency and threat of nuclear attacks? .
Dr. D.R. Karthikeyan ,Director
General Of Human Rights Commision:
I had heard of the existence of a movement called Brahmakumaris even
during basic training at National Police Academy at Mt.Abu 36 years ago. My
training schedule was very tough. There was hardly any time to know anything
about the BK organization. Nor was there any interest in knowing about them.
Whatever little we heard about them was from people who themselves were
totally ignorant and who had developed wrong notions about something unknown
to them. In later years I came to know here and there about the selfless
spiritual service of the dedicated BK sisters and brothers. It is only since
the last couple of years I came to know them rather closely. While I had
visited the headquarters at Mt.Abu a couple of times for a couple of hours
each time, since the last one year I had stayed at the Gyan Sarovar Campus
twice, each time staying there for three days. Recently I stayed at the
Shanti Van complex at Abu Road during Shivaratri celebrations. I watched
with great admiration every activity since 4 PM. There was perfect
discipline, orderliness, punctuality and cleanliness everywhere and in every
sphere of activity. The speakers had in depth knowledge of the various
subjects on which they spoke. All of them were articulate and spontaneous in
their expressions. They handled every subject with competence and composure.
They were sure of whatever was assigned to them. All the BKs were cheerful,
dynamic and dedicated. Whatever the job, whether it was the protocol duty of
receiving the guests at airport or railway station or conducting them around
the campus or for the various activities, one witnesses the height of
efficiency and perfection.
They maintained the freshness and the cheerful and spontaneous
attitude throughout the day in all situations, at all times.During the
international seminars and conferences, the way the BKs conducted the
affairs won the admiration of all the delegates. During the Shivaratri
celebrations at Shantivan complex 20,000 delegates were accommodated, housed
and fed. All the operations were smooth. Yet, everywhere there was
orderliness and cleanliness. Every delegate appeared quite happy and
satisfied with the arrangements. One is all the more impressed and
overwhelmed to hear that there was not a single paid employee anywhere in
the campus (excepting a few locals engaged as domestic help). All
arrangements were efficiently and happily undertaken by groups of volunteers
from various parts of the country. At the largest pillar-less hall in Asia,
over 20,000 people gathered out of whom 2000 were foreigners from over 70
countries. There was perfect discipline and silence when the gathering
stayed on from 6PM till early morning. The simultaneous translation 18
languages made it possible for everyone tounderstand every bit of the
proceedings.
Sh.ShivRaj Patil ,Speaker Of Lok
Sabha:
The object of religion is to tell us the meaning of human life, its
aim and reveal the secret of death. But. Today people, not knowing the real
meaning of religion, are fighting with one another. They have forgotten the
basic principals of religion and are following physical comforts and
pleasures. Because we have forgotten the religion and the human relations,
there are so many problems being faced by us in society. We cannot negate
religion, but religious fanaticism is also not right. Both these situations
create problems. In fact what is needed is to understand the true meaning of
religion. First we have to create goodwill in human beings. We are trying to
investigate into atoms, neutrons, nature, space, animals and birds but we
have not been making any efforts to know those. We should have a balance of
both-Science and Spirituality. If both these powers work untidily, there can
surely be peace, happiness and prosperityin the world.
Chhoga Ram Bakolia ,Transport
Minister Of Rajasthan:
Today we see weaknesses all around the society. At such a crucial time,
the role of media persons in strengthening the country is very important.
Now is the time to amend us. We can learn noble conduct from Brahmakumaris
organisation.In the pious environment of Shantivan here, one can create
positive thoughts through Rajayoga. Brahmakumaris organization has been
endeavouring to re-build India and Rajasthan. By establishing Global
Hospital and Research Centre, they have contributed a lot in the fieldof
social service.
Mr.Yerram Naidu ,Union Minister
for Rural Areas and Employment:
Services rendered through truth dedication and love alone will be the
basis of success in politics. Moral values are as much necessary in modern
society as food is essential to keep body and soul together. By holding such
an important conference at this juncture, to arrest the trend of moral
degradation is the unique contribution of Brahma Kumaris Organization. There
is utmost need for spiritual re-awakening if increasing tendency of crimes
in politics is to be checked. The present time calls for imbibing values
like truth, non-violence and harmony, as mentioned in Gita. We must
understand the importance of moral values. The rural population of India has
to beeducated on the ethical and spiritual aspects, which alone will ensure
country’s progress.
Mr.B.S. Ramoowalia , Union
Minister for Welfare:
India’s age-old tradition and core values should govern our present
life styles and conduct especially in politics which should not be propelled
by narrow considerations of caste, community and religion. Value based
politics would re-main a distance dream as long as self interest, nasty
brokerage and opportunism ruled the roost in country’s governance forgoing
public interest and welfare. In a democratic set-up, public awakening and
outcry; a vigilant Media; principled working of the three organs of
government without functional overlapping and inculcation of higher order
values, such as, altruism, honesty, integrity, patience and dedication
towards a noble cause among politicians constitute the pillars of
value-based politics. At a time when politics has come under increasing
criticism and hatred, Bramha Kumaris institution’s initiative to infuse
certain basic values into the profession of politics by organizing
suchconferences and meets is not only commendable but also a courageous one.
Justice K.Venkataswami , Former
Judge of Supreme Court:
In the speedily sweeping scenario of globalization, democratization,
today’s administrators with multifarious legislative, Judicial and executive
accountabilities should subscribe to a set of core values like commitment,
pursuit of excellence, social equality, trusteeship and tolerance for
peaceful resolution of socio-economic and political tensions and conflicts
and for effective utilization of our vast material, moral and human
resources. The administrators should be the embodiment of honour, character
and virtues with strong determination to do what is right in the larger
interest of public and national welfare. We see rampant corruption, growing
indiscipline, lack of sensitivity and allergy to the very word
accountability in administration today. There is an urgent need for
inculcation of moral and spiritual values by administrators in life and at
work to translate intentions and promises into actions andachievements.
Tapan Sikdar ,Union Minister Of
State for Communications:
We must perform good deeds to preserve the noble tradition of Indian
culture. The sanskars cannot be transformed by mere advice. Here, in
Shantivan, we see how these noble thoughts are being implemented in
practical lives. I call upon all people associated with Media to provide
moral education to youth so that we can overcome the crisis of character.
The ancient knowledge of India and meditation should be made a part of life
and we should striveto make a strong, united and culturally rich India.
Dr N.Shiv Prasad ,Andhra Minister
for Public Relations and Cultural Affairs:
There is an urgent need to strike a balance between Information
Technology and Spirituality and efforts should be made to establish
value-based culture. For spiritual and moral empowerment of people, all
political leaders and media persons should take initiative. The social
welfare activities of Prajapita Brahma Kumaris Ishwariya Vishwa Vidyalya,
performed with dedication over the last 65 years, are highly commendable.
Our Chief Minister honourable Sh. Chandra Babu Naidu has advised all
political leaders,Secretaries, officers and employees etc to dailypractise
Rajyoga meditation.
Mr Ram Chandra Panda , Deputy
Speaker Of Orissa:
I am thankful to you for your hospitality during my stay at Mount Abu
from 5th to 7th July 2001. During this short time I could forget the worldly
attachment and enjoyed the bliss of Paramatma. I believe the knowledge and
training imparted there will definitely change the world order and check the
degeneration. If more and more people will adhere to your concept of life
and philosophy, the heaven will not be far away. I extend my thankful-ness
again and again from the very core of my heart for every body that spared
their valuable and busy moments for co-operation and love for me. I must not
keep quiet in expressing my adoration for the sagacity and brilliancy of
sister Geeta and sister Suman who explained the theory and practice of
Rajyoga which is the key for social harmony, individual’s peace and bliss,
not only for a particular section, but also for every human being who is in
worldly distress. My words cannot picture the scenic beauty of the locality.
It has the magical and majestic power tocaptivate the minds of everybody and
drive them towards peace and bliss.

Geeta Ka Saar... Gita Ka Gyan :
Kya Atma -anubhuti ke sahi vidhi ka gyan aapke pass hai? Jisse aap parmatam ke
saath Sathya sambandh sthapit kar sakte hai? Aadyatmik drishtikon se shrimat
bhagwat geeta ka gyan atulniy hai, iskiaantarik sundarta yaha hai ki uska gyan
manavta ke har vyakti ke uper laagu hai, haad aur behad ke har dayre se bahar
hai.Yaha sarv Dharmon ke liye manya hai aur parmatam ko pratyaksha karne ka ek
uttam madhyam hai. Yaha aap aur parmatam ke bich ek vartalap hai. Yah par Arjun
oos vyakti ka patra darshata hai jo ichchhaon tatha bhautik sambandhon mein
fansa huva hai. Humari apni hi antarik aasuri aur deivi shaktiyon ke bich ek
dvanda hai jo kaurav aur pandavon ke naam se prasiddh hai.
