Practitioners of Rajyoga meditation from five continents shared insights on using spiritual principles to create a better life, during a two-day conference on the theme ‘Future Vision For a World in Transition’, organised by the Brahma Kumaris at the Siri Fort auditorium, New Delhi.
Opening the event on March 3, BK Asha, Director of Om Shanti Retreat Centre, Gurugram, said that one could learn the art of detaching oneself from the external world and be in touch with one’s inner stability.
Ken O’ Donnell, Director of Brahma Kumaris centres in Brazil and author of several books, said that he had always counted on his inner peace in trying situations in life. He gave a step by step introduction to Rajyoga.
Charlie Hogg, Director of Brahma Kumaris centres in Australia, who has been practising Rajyoga meditation for over 40 years, said: “The greatest success in life is to rebuild a loving relationship with the self.” Most problems in the world are born because of the lack of self-respect in people, he said, adding that Rajyoga is a rich and loving relationship with the self and God.
BK Shivani, a well-known motivational speaker, said that when we bless people despite their mistakes, we choose to shift our mind from a low-frequency state of hurt to the high-energy state of contentment. “The world will undergo a change when each one consciously contributes to the positive collective energy of the world and absorbs it.” She asked the audience to become emotionally independent by taking responsibility for their choices and responses.
Neville Hodgkinson, former medical and science correspondent for The Times, London, interviewed a panel of international guests from all walks of life who have benefited from the ancient Indian practice of Rajyoga.
Among the panelists was Elizabeth Kotut, a former Catholic nun from Kenya. She said that she chose spirituality because it helped her gain clarity about truths in her own religion. Luciana Ferraz from Brazil said that despite her very accomplished life, she was drawn to spirituality because of her quest to find greater depth and meaning in life.
BK Sudesh, Director of Brahma Kumaris centres in Europe, emphasised on bringing out the core values of the being and sharing them with others. She also gave the audience an experience of guided meditation.
A special attraction at the event was ‘paintings in the air’ by Glow Artist from Hyderabad, Vinay Hedge. His performances were a unique blend of art, technology and spirituality. Several cultural performances added colour to the two-day show.
