Experiments-in-Silence for the month of January 2023

5 December 2022

Dear Divine Family, Om shanti and greetings of love.

In anticipation of the auspicious month of January, a small group has been meeting to plan for ways the Brahmin family can deepen our experience of the avyakt stage. In preparation for this month of silence, we are sharing a class by Dadi Praskashmani in which she explains that Baba and the Dadis want the whole of the Brahmin family to do tapasya with a determined thought, and instead of focusing on outside service, to concentrate on creating yoga programs to make the self powerful. She proposes 101 days, but we will confine our efforts to the 31 days in the month of January. We have attached her class here and encourage you to read it, share it with those at the centre and use it as preparation for January.

There will be 3 elements to our “avyakt month:

  1. The avyakt murlis for the avyakt year. On the 5 Sundays in January, we will read murlis spoken by BapDada in 1993, the year He named as “The Avyakt Year”. Five senior yogis will experiment with practices in these murlis prior to our hearing them as a family. They will share a recording of their experiences on a site that the family can access for inspiration.
  2. The family’s experiments with silence. Each Sunday, after hearing the avyakt murli and the experiences of the senior yogis, BK students and teachers are encouraged to experiment themselves in order to sustain a deep avyakt stage.
  3. Avyakt Signals. The avyakt signals to be read each day offer another way to make consistent effort. The theme of these signals will be solitude (ekant) and concentration (ekagrata) to further support our experiments with silence.

We encourage you to begin preparing now for a deep and transformational month, moving all of those who are able to participate closer to the powerful avyakt stage. We will forward more details as we get closer to January.

In Baba’s loving yaad,
BK Raju

Dear Brothers & Sisters, Greetings of Love!

 

Please download the online schedule of classes which will be broadcast from Gyan Sarovar during the DF Program for Group 4 from 26 November - 4th December HERE. We hope you will join in whenever the timing suits you.

 

All timings shown are IST, and the videos will be available on the DF Madhuban Program YouTube Channel following live streaming http://tiny.cc/DFMadhubanProgramYouTube

Filming of DF Family in Gyan Sarovar, 2022/23 Season.

  

Recently the RCs made a decision that during the live online programs there will be filming of the audience that is present in the hall. There will be areas in the hall signposted for those who don’t want to be filmed to sit in and the filming team will NOT film people sitting in these areas. This is now the policy for this season.  It is good to note, that if people go up to the stage to ask a question during the session, they may be filmed. If they would not like to be filmed, they can alternatively write their question and have it passed to the MC.

 

The live streaming from the Gyan Sarovar Translation Team YouTube channels is available for some languages. Please see the below links and connect with your language coordinators, as live streaming will only happen when there is a translator in Madhuban at that time.

Golden Drops Update & Film Premiere - 1 December

19 November 2022

Om shanti and Golden Greetings dear divine family,

 

As the Golden Drops team, we are happy to give some short and sweet updates as we are already in the 5th month of the initiative, on the way to 31 May 2023.

 

Good news

  • We have over 120 videos for you to use and share with your contacts, BKs at the centre and your community to shower Golden Drops on the world and create a sense of hope and beauty. Please find all golden drops on this YouTube-link: 

https://www.youtube.com/c/GoldenDrops2022/videos?view=0&sort=dd&shelf_id=0

 

  • Another 7 countries have contributed a Golden Drop: Lithuania, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Ethiopia, Cambodia, Trinidad and Tobago, and Kuwait. So that brings the count to 43 countries. We are still aiming for a Golden Drop from every country in the world. You are warmly invited to send us a contribution from your own country and help to get a drop from all your neighbor countries and friends in other countries: goldendrops@au.brahmakumaris.org

 

  • The GD team is growing as new editors, posting team, upload team and many others have joined to create these beautiful Golden Drops for the world 

 

  • A second workshop for the public has been created to use after the introductory workshop, because BK’s asked us: what next? after part one. Both workshops can be downloaded HERE and HERE. All workshop materials can be found via this link:

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1uhUZsqX5gAQrirbRbnDEldANYIcYJ5s6?usp=share_link

 

A Beautiful World Film Premiere

  • On December 1: A Beautiful World Film will be premiered on YouTube and Facebook, showing some of the finest Golden Drops by theme. After watching it yourself, you may wish to watch it with your local BK-family or as a public program. It could be followed by a conversation on how to move ahead in current times and the idea of a new world that is awaiting at the horizon. Find the film on GD YouTube channel after Dec. 1

 

And the last thing to mention is that there are some interesting obstacles to posting directly. Facebook has changed its policies to disallow external posts on non-profit organizations. Now it is only via Instagram that people can share a golden drop contribution directly - but you can always share with us at Golden Drops email: goldendrops@au.brahmakumaris.org.

 

With golden appreciation for your attention.

In Baba’s sweet yaad,

On behalf of all members of the team, Judy, Petra and Charlie

INVITATION: Silence Retreats of TOWER OF SILENCE in India

19 October 2022

Dear Angels,

 

By now, you will have received all information about the 2022/23 Double Foreigner season in Madhuban from your CC.

 

We are adding to this the invitation for two TOWER OF SILENCE retreats this year and a save the date for a third retreat next year. All these retreats will take place in India.

 

The first two can be combined with a Madhuban DF group period and the third one is part of the last DF group program at Gyan Sarovar.

 

Jayanti Didi gave her ok for all this. According to the advice of the DF season organisation team, we are sending this to you before they publish the whole Madhuban program. (On the explicit request of Jayanti Didi, this communication is not sent via London, but by the Tower of Silence Team itself.)

 

THE RETREATS:

 

TOWER OF SILENCE 26

28 September to 9 October 2022

ORC Delhi

For BK teachers and right hands from India and abroad over

10 years in gyan

The Retreats:

The world is waiting for a reunification of science and spiritual force. When in us souls the science of gyan becomes silence in the still failure-free mind, dualism ends and ushers in the pure karmateet thoughtless vigyan point, and the significance of its subtle signals touching the selected scientists’ inventor intellect leads to the development of completely stable satopradhan technologies.

 

Albert Einstein: “Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one. We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them. A new type of thinking is essential if mankind is to survive and move towards higher levels.”  

 

Nikola Tesla: “The day science begins to study non-physical phenomena; it will make more progress in one decade than in all the previous centuries of its existence.”  

 

Baba’s message through Shashi Bhen, January 2022: "Baba again brings to your attention to make your stage so powerful through silence that the signals of/for the coming time can be understood, and everyone served through signals and vibrations can accomplish the task of world transformation. Science working for the new world will get power and fasten the speed through the children’s stable and silent vibrations."

 

 

Retreat Contents:

 

T H E   plan:

 

Experiential essences of being, becoming 

k a r m a t e e t  - p e r f e c t - c o m p l e t e

The natural occurrence of the ONE plan of revelation

 

For BK souls who feel a deep maturity, and having been selected by Baba, to explore the stability of karmateet silence and perfection and the inherent service through sakaash to Baba’s selected scientist souls and protagonists in world transformation

Latest news from Jayanti Didi 10th October, 2022

10 October 2022

There has been 50 year celebration in Chennai  which were done on a very very grand scale, with Brijmohanbhai, Mruthunjayabhai, Karunabhai, Asha Didi and myself, plus most of the zonal and sub zonal Teachers from Tamil Nadhu, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh and all the neighbouring states being invited.

Friday morning we went to inaugurate Dadi Prakashmani hall which has been constructed at the site of the New Retreat Centre just outside of Chennai.

We then went to Happy Village, the original retreat place in Chennai and this was now accommodating 700 BKs from all around.  There was a short programme that evening and so we were all able to share with the seva dhari residents who had gathered.

Next morning we went to the Centre of Chennai about an hour’s drive away and there was a public event in which a minister and former retired judge were also speaking.  There were brilliant performances of music and dance by well-known artists.  It was a gathering of around 1000 high level people.

We all went for lunch to the Centre which is in the city where Rosieben used to stay and in the evening returned to the auditorium for another session.  Again excellent performances and there were 4 ministers present, but one spoke on behalf of them all since they all had to leave for another event.  It was again a full house and we all returned to Happy Village, the retreat place that night.

Monsoons in the south begin in October and there was very heavy monsoon rain that evening.

Next morning we had a programme for the BK family and this was in a marquee about 15 minute’s drive from the retreat place.  The owners had given the land for an BK event, knowing that it would bring them blessings with breakfast, lunch and dinner for everyone.  A grand programme with blessings from all.  

After the gift ceremony at the end of the programme, Hansaben and I left Chennai together with Mruthunjayabhai.  There was another event that evening which Brijmohanbhai attended.

The hall was beautifully decorated with real flowers and the next day was transferred to the marquee which again was done very  beautifully.

Om Shanti

Good News Update on Didi Nirmala's health

9 September 2022

Dear Centre Coordinators,

 

Some of you may have heard that Didi Nirmala had not been so well after returning from her trip to Australia. This is to give you the latest update.

 

In Baba's yaad,

ICO

 

Dearest Angels, Brahmin family worldwide, Many greetings of love, joy and peace from Madhuban!

 

Dr Nirmala Didi is getting better and better. Her blood counts are almost near normal. She is stable, more alert and active. She took a stroll within her hospital room!

 

Many thanks for your good wishes, sakaash and meditative vibes – they are doing wonders. Didi personally conveys her grateful thanks. 

Didi is likely to be released from hospital on Saturday. She may travel to Gyan Sarovar on Sunday.

 

She is advised to still stay in her room and restrict visitors.

 

In Baba's service and yaad,

Dr Pratap Bha

 

 

 

 

 

Reminder about the Importance of the Global Bhatti on the 4th Saturday of Every Month

6 September 2022

Dear Divine Family, Om shanti.

 

Baba always reminds us to be in continuous remembrance. Also that the combined vibrations of Brahmins around the world are essential for the establishment of the new world.

 

We are very happy this Global Bhatti is being held regularly, and that centres and Brahmins from the whole world are participating. We wish to encourage them to continue contributing this essential, powerful energy to the world’s atmosphere.

 

We would like to request everyone to dedicate one day exclusively to this progress of intense effort for self and world benefit. Ideally this day should be without other activities, without mobile phones and technology generally. Imagine the power generated when all Baba’s centres and all Brahmins are integrated in the same Bhatti during this most important phase of the Confluence.

 

The Global Bhatti brings this opportunity monthly, on the fourth Saturday, and invites you to deep, simple and natural yoga. This day should figure in our calendars in the same way that World Meditation Hour has been established.

 

There are many resources to use throughout the day to be found on the portal bkmeditation.online/Global-Bhatti-2022.

 

Many thanks,

In Baba’s yaad,

RCs
