Preparation for Global Bhatti 16-18 January -- Resources

31 December 2021

Dear Divine Family, Om Shanti and loving greetings for the New Year!

 

As you are aware, the Volcanic Remembrance of One Global Bhatti is coming up soon.

Baba has asked us to remain “Ever ready” by making long-term effort; hence let us use the avyakt month of January to prepare for our one-of-a-kind Bhatti.

 

The aim of the Bhatti is for each Brahmin to be focused on unadulterated remembrance of Baba. We suggest that sustenance and preparations begin now, before the Bhatti. The following are some ideas for that preparation:

 

1. Three Digital Detox days

We suggest 3 digital detox days before the Bhatti and have a mini-Bhatti on that day, i.e., 2 hours extra yoga or silence days which could be introduced every 5 days starting 2nd January 2022. See attached instructions.

 

2. Classes on the sub-themes

Attached is the Focus of Yoga practice document with daily themes. There will be a special class on the main theme by a senior each day. Centres may organise classes based on some of the other sub-themes.

 

3. Resources access for all BK students

We have created a portal with resources on volcanic remembrance and other materials to be used before and during the Bhatti. Also translations will be available on the portal. Here is the link: bkmeditation.online/Global-Bhatti-2022

 

4. Be creative

We encourage you to be creative and prepare yourself for this world initiative to reveal Baba through volcanic remembrance. Some suggestions could be: maintaining andencouraging silence during meals, daily journaling on volcanic remembrance, creating personal commentaries, etc.

 

Attached is a timetable to use as a guide for the 3 days of the Bhatti. As much as possible, in unity with the rest of the global family, please follow this timetable, however, we are aware that you may need to make some adjustments to the timings depending on your local situation.

 

5. NEW Hindi promo

Finally, this is the link to the edited Hindi promo. Apologies for the mistakes in the last one. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mEOdB4pS6m2hUNVTt9DKMzcW0BiSPTP9/view?usp=sharing

We are also sharing the link to the English promo again, for your easy reference.

Tribute to Archbishop Desmond Tutu

28 December 2021

TRIBUTE TO ARCHBISHOP DESMOND TUTU

 

Archbishop Tutu played a significant role in changing the course of history in South Africa, which became an example and inspiration for the whole world.

 

Many students of the Brahma Kumaris treasure, in their hearts, their encounters with him, pre and post-democracy, whether in an interfaith setting, as chair of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission or when South Africa hosted COP 17. He was an absolute champion of any initiative that promoted peace, togetherness, non-violence and compassion.

 

Archbishop Tutu will be remembered for his courageous voice for racial harmony, truth and justice, especially during the most trying times of South Africa. His deep faith in God and in the intrinsic good that is at the heart of every human being, gave him the strength to endure the difficult hearings of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and help a nation to steer towards peace, harmony and racial integration. He understood the importance of the power of forgiveness in allowing for the healing of hearts and the reclaiming of our humanity.

 

Archbishop Tutu was fearless in speaking his truth, and using his position of influence to raise the conscience of leaders and remind them that they are in their positions to serve people, especially the most vulnerable.

 

His legacy is one of demonstrating the power of God’s love, of determined faith, compassion and of courage and inner strength.

 

He will be greatly missed by the people of South Africa and by many millions around the world who drew inspiration from his life.

 

Bk Mohini and Bk Jayanti,
Additional Administrative Heads, Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual University

 

 

 

 

 

Message for the Brahmin family at the New Year from the RCs

28 December 2021

Dear Divine Family,

Om shanti and greetings of love to the divine family worldwide.

 

This is the time Baba has told us about when the world would most need what we have to share. Even as the world shakes on the outside, we need to silence our inner complaints and confusion and become stable, so that whatever we are seeing or hearing doesn’t shake us. It’s the time to remain fearless and courageous. 

 

We need to attend to our hearts, making them clean and honest, and we need to finish our limited vision of ourselves and others. As we step into the vision Baba has of us, we will look on one another with deep love and respect.

 

This is the year to become equal to the Father: simple, knowledgeful and powerful. It’s the time to become protectors of souls and to celebrate the “Year of the Angel” when the powerful currents of our good wishes and pure feelings bring peace, courage and hope for the future to all souls. 

 

With love,

In Baba's yaad,

RCs

RE: Global Bhatti 16-18 January 2022

26 December 2021

Dear Brothers and Sisters across the world, Greetings of love for the special tapasya month of January.

 

You are invited to participate in the special gift of a three-day Global Bhatthi leading up to Baba’s day on 18th January, 2022. We begin on Sunday 16th which includes World Meditation hour. The aim is for you, whether you are at home or at the centre, to participate as fully as possible.

 

Baba says: “Children, now in a collective form, donate the power of yoga to the world with just one pure thought and the task of world transformation will quickly be accomplished”. Seeing the current world situation, our united volcanic remembrance of One will bring about the Golden Age of peace and happiness. 

 

It is exciting to think that for the first time in the kalpa, one million Raj Yogis will together intensify their remembrance and spread Sakaash throughout the world.

 

We request:

You step away from the digital world of zoom and mobiles and have a digital detox for eight hours a day. As far as possible move away from external service and physical activity.

 

Be in silence and immersed in the remembrance of One – each of us is an integral part of this process. If possible, we humbly request you to take time off work to be part of this Bhatti.

 

We will be sending out a suggested timetable. You are welcome to adjust it to suit your own needs. The emphasis is on personal yoga for 8 hours.

 

Our three themes for the Bhatti are:

16th January – experiencing the Bodiless Stage

17th January – experiencing Angelic Consciousness

18th January – being a Lighthouse and Mighthouse

 

For each day, plenty of resources will be available for study including themes, classes and Murli excerpts to allow you to contemplate deeply. To help increase your practice in preparation for the Bhatti, we will send these resources well in advance. A promotional video is attached for your use.

 

We look forward to this powerful time together for the self and for the world.

 

In Baba’s sweet yaad,

Dadi Ratan Mohini and Sister Mohini

07 December 2021: Karuna Bhai ji Heading Back Home to Madhuban

8 December 2021

Dear All, Greetings from Madhuban

 

With great feeling of relief and joy, this is to inform you all that our most respected brother Karuna Bhai ji is on his way back to Madhuban.

 

On Friday 03 Dec 2021, he underwent an Angioplasty procedure and then after a day in hospital he was discharged. Thereafter, he went for thorough checking of his eyes and also had an MRI of his neck and brain. With Baba's and Dadi's blessings and blessings pouring in from across the world, almost all of his reports and parameters came normal and he was advised by his team of Doctors to just take rest so the chariot can recover on its own. 

 

So, after staying at Ahmedabad's Memnagar Center for 2 days, today he left for Abu post breakfast. Throughout his treatment in Ahmedabad, our dear brother Lalit Bhai (Accounts) was beside him and looked after him quite well. 

 

We hope he recovers well with proper rest and care. He has thanked all of you for the Yoga and Blessings. Thank You All. Om Shanti.   

 

In Sweet Baba's Yaad 

B.K.Nikunj
