Peace Angel Rally under the theme “Universal Peace and Harmony” was held with Minister of Higher Education, Temjen Imna Along as the special guest on 15th December 2021 at Sokhriezie Park and culminated at Ura Academy, Kohima.
Flagging off the peace rally, Along said the Peace rally initiative would build a strong endeavour and effort from every citizen of our state and the country at large to have peace within oneself to achieve peace all around. He congratulated the participants and the bramakumaris. He lauded the organisation which is recognised worldwide for helping people overcome many difficulties through meditation and bringing communities together.
BK Sister Rupa Raj stated that the Brahma Kumaris is a spiritual movement that originated in Hyderabad during the 1930s. Adding that it teaches a form of meditation that focuses on identity as souls, as opposed to bodies and they believe that all souls are intrinsically good and that God is the source of all goodness. The organization teaches to transcend labels associated with the body, such as race, nationality, religion, and gender, and it aspires to establish a global culture based on what it calls "soul-consciousness".
In 2008, the movement claimed to have more than 825,000 regular students, with over 8500 centres in 100 countries.
Earlier, BK Sister spoke on the importance of value education and meditation and BK Brother Vinod highlighted on the aims and objectives.
