Overview of the Brahma Kumaris Organization
The Brahma Kumaris, founded in the 1930s by Lekh Raj Kriplani, focuses on leading a disciplined lifestyle that emphasizes celibacy, vegetarianism, and meditation. Originating in Sindh, the organization has grown to establish a presence in over 100 countries, functioning as a spiritual NGO rather than a cult or sect. Members practice core principles aimed at overcoming vices such as lust and anger, promoting a transition from body consciousness to soul consciousness. B.K. Shivani's teachings make complex spiritual concepts accessible, encouraging individuals to engage in introspection and foster personal growth.
