Brahma Kumaris Forum

Om Shanti - When a person enters into a 'Gyaan' and follows Srimat for a consecutive no. of years and want to be a celibate for the rest of his/her life but his/her family pressurize to mary with someone then what about celibacy.. ? I think it is a very serious discussion. It is a case of mine. My family persuade me to marry but I don't..they said that life partner is very necessary in life..but for me nothing is more important than celibacy..I think there should be a forum where Kumar and kumari seek their life partners. To oppose parents decision is not easy. I want to marry with someone who is following brahma Kumaris. Share your thoughts..

A lot of Emails are received to meet BK Sister Shivani. Here is our 'official' response. Essence : Sister Shivani has a busy service schedule. Everyone at Brahma kumaris is approachable, so she may meet you at a suitable place, but for that to happen you will have to connect to a Brahma Kumaris centre (take the '7 days introduction course') Please read this post to know more. A sample email we received I am very troubled. I can't get out of it. Sister Shivani is my last ray of hope. I tried many ways to contact her but in vain. Please let me know a way to contact her. She is my last resort. Our Response + Guidance To : Everyone reading this From : Prajapita BrahmaKumari Ishwariya VishwaVidyalaya (Godly Spiritual University) You wish to know how can you contact or meet Sister Shivani, who is a senior Rajyoga teacher and a student of Prajapita Brahma Kumaris Godly University. Here we will guide you where to contact and for what purpose. And how to meet sister if needed after this. Option 1: Best and Quickest way If you have ANY life challenging problem or a question related to Brahmakumaris, the main place to contact is the official Contact page from where you can contact via our 'direct contact form': Brahma Kumaris - Contact via Email ( Shiv Baba Service Initiative ) ( If you want a reply from sister Shivani, please mention this on the first line of your message. Please know that she will answer only if the email is credited by us as 'valid' according to our guidelines ) We answer emails on both Gyan related questions (about Murli and BKWSU) and Life-related (personal advice on your life challenges). We recommend you to first visit our Forum to reach the questions already answered. Email us ONLY IF you don't find a solution/answer on our Forum . Option 2 . Through a BK centre First visit your nearby BK RajYoga Center. Take up 7 day RajYog meditation course from that center. All your questions will be answered and problems will be solved with getting this godly spiritual knowledge... The 7 days course is an essence of all godly knowledge. This is also the source of wisdom which sister Shivani discuss in her classes and lectures. After taking this course, you can ask the sister in charge of that centre to contact BK Shivani on your behalf to arrange a short meeting. (Please know that her day to day schedule is very busy due to which you can meet her on specific locations only and only if you really need to. Because it is not really needed to meet her for general reasons) NOTE : You can discuss your problems with Brahma Kumari sister or Brahma Kumar brother incharge of the centre nearby to your home. They can guide you as they also have the same knowledge as sister Shivani, as we all are studying the same Gyan Murli everyday. So to begin, please learn the Introduction to the 7 days course: Online course : 7 days course online and Refer : What is Gyan Murli? Option 3: Meet during a Seminar If you follow Sister Shivani's events and programs, then you would know that she is regularly invited to many colleges, hospitals, university, and other campuses to speak on spirituality and living values. Also many seminars are directly arranged by a local BK centre where sister Shivani is also invited. You can meet her at such locations in person . Find out the event happening nearby your residence and visit. There, you will need to speak to someone and arrange a short meeting. Here are details of BK Shivani's upcoming events -> http://bk.ooo/all-events/category/upcoming-events/ ( Please know that visiting an event of bk Shivani is only to 'encourage you' to find out the source of her wisdom, which is God's direct given knowledge taught and studied at Brahma Kumaris ) Personal Note With all love and respect, we advise you to first learn about Brahma Kumaris and about BK Shivani before you believe in anything. Please know that BK Shivani is one of the many Rajyogi students at this Godly University who is only sharing the knowledge which she learnt from God's murli. Refer: What is Murli? Even Sister Shivani will say you to connect to God, the source of all spiritual powers and not to her (a human being). So as we advise you not to insist to meet her for silly reasons because it is not meeting her which can resolve your problems. Only god's knowledge and his powers can help you at every stage of life. So connect to the Father ( Shiv Baba ) Sister Shivani will also advise you to visit the nearby BK RajYog center first. There you will get an introduction of the Self (soul) and the Father (Supreme Soul) in a short 7 days course. This itself will give spiritual support to your soul. So instead of depending on a person/human being, connect to the source - God. Shiv baba (Parampita ParamAtma) is the ocean of knowledge, peace, love and powers. He has medicine of every disease whether body, mind or soul. Connect to Him by learning   RajYoga Meditation . ✣ Related & Useful Links ✣ 1.

I've read and heard references to International Yoga on the 3rd Sunday of the month from 6:30-7:30pm. Is this still practiced? If so, which timezone do we follow?
