~ Brahma Kumaris One Initiative ~
The Brahma Kumaris group teaches a form of meditation that relaxes the mind and nurtures a healthy balance between our inner and outer worlds. Through numerous social service activities and partnerships, it promotes spiritual understanding, leadership with integrity and elevated actions towards a better world. If you have not meditated or tried to connect to the Source before, there are Brahma Kumaris centres near you. All the courses and guidance are free of charge; one-on-one guidance is often possible.
Each centre will be participating in the ONE Initiative.

Who are the Brahma Kumaris?
The Brahma Kumaris group is an international spiritual community whose purpose is to assist individuals to rediscover their spiritual identity and values. To this end, the community offers a variety of courses within its centres while organizing initiatives within the communities of 135 countries. The core teaching/practice of the Brahma Kumaris group for more than 70 years has been Raja Yoga.
This includes the following:
- An understanding of the self as spiritual light often referred to as “the soul.” You don’t “have” a soul; you “are” a soul.
- An understanding of The Source, also a being of subtle, spiritual light, but residing beyond the dimensions of time and space. That “Being” has been remembered and called by many names throughout history such as Allah, God, the Supreme, Ishwar and Jehovah.
- The practices of meditation and contemplation are shared as ways to raise the vibration of the light of our consciousness so that we can resonate, connect, absorb, and share the power of our common Spiritual Source.
- During the day you can experiment with maintaining your connection at work or at home – we’ll show you how.
Even during busy days, we can stay connected and draw on the power of ONE to help us:
- Pass on to the world the light and love of ONE.
- Interact positively with others.
- Think clearly.
- Make quality decisions.
- Remain stress free.
The Brahma Kumaris group will share with you ways to stay connected at work and at home when you join them for the morning or evening meditations at the centre. Join them at the local Brahma Kumaris centre in the early mornings and/or evenings, and they will guide you in making that connection.
Cultivate your “personal connection” and spend some time with ONE. Included will be a meditation, and a short talk and conversation about all aspects of connecting and staying connected.
Join thousands of others worldwide at the Global Finale of Being with ONE in your nearest town or city on Sunday, September 21.
