​The role of women as spiritual leaders

​Brahma Kumaris is the largest spiritual organisation in the world led by women.  It was the founder, Prajapita Brahma Baba, who chose to put women in front from the very beginning, and it has set Brahma Kumaris apart on the stage of the world's religions and spiritual organisations. For over 80 years their leadership has been characterised by steady courage, a capacity for forgiveness and a deep commitment to unity.  

Although women hold the top administrative positions, the women who hold these positions have always made decisions in partnership with the men. It is a partnership and consensus model of leadership, based on respect, equality and humility. As such, it stands as an exemplar of accomplished and harmonious jurisdiction.

Remembering Dadi Janki

Picture
​Dadi Janki, the Spiritual Head of the Brahma Kumaris, left her body in Mt. Abu, India on March 27, 2020 at 104 years of age. She leaves behind hundreds of thousands who felt she was their true friend. Anyone who had been in a room with her would have experienced her booming voice of authority ringing out with 3 “om shantis”.

For over 80 years she asked audiences on all continents to consider 3 questions: “Who am I?” “Who do I belong to?” and “What is the task of this time?” You are a soul. You belong to God. And this is the time of world transformation.
​
She was a tireless server. From her early days in what is now Pakistan to a few months before her passing, she gave every moment to service, outpacing those who were decades younger. She spoke to princes, prime ministers and those leading ordinary lives as if they were her brothers and sisters, urging them to make their lives worthwhile.
​
She was a spiritual giant, who kept a lamp of hope lit for humanity. She showed us how to live with love and ultimately how to die with dignity
