Dadi Janki at the Parliament of the World’s Religions, Australia
On 9th December, 2009, Dadi Janki, invited as a major speaker at the Parliament of the World’s Religions in Melbourne, addressed the closing plenary together with the Dalai Lama and other religious leaders. She shared the following message with the 4,000 strong gathering:
Om shanti – a greeting of peace to my brothers and sisters. I the soul, am child of the Supreme Father, the Supreme Soul, the Ocean of Peace. It is time to consider that the drama of life is coming to a close and it is time to return home. Each faith and spiritual tradition has sought to bring peace on this Earth, and now it is the time for Divine Himself, the Remover of Sorrow and the Bestower of Peace, to give us this message, that it is now time to return home. God’s hope for humanity is for each and every soul to experience truth, love and mercy and to be responsible to share that vibration with the rest of the world. To do this we need the practice of performing elevated actions, of experiencing God’s power. To take power from God, we need a relationship with the Supreme. Taking light and might from God is taking our inheritance from the Divine, the inheritance of happiness, bliss, peace and love. This is not only for oneself but for donating to others. God is our Mother, Father, Teacher, Friend and Guru. With such a companion there is no need for any worry. I keep myself safe from worry and also make sure that others are free from worry and experience peace. Om shanti.
Dadi Janki's presence was felt at the Parliament as the main woman spiritual leader and because of her magnetic spiritual presence. As she moved around the Parliament, Buddhist monks, Rabbis and priests opened their hearts to her. In addition to her own presentations and master classes, Dadi was invited as an honoured guest speaker by several faith communities who wished to hear her wisdom and be moved by a profound experience of peace in her presence.

Blessings by Dadi Janki Ji, Chief of Brahma Kumaris
Dadi Janki ji says, "The essense of all this is just three things- Realisation of the Self, Time and God. God is the ocean of mercy, love, truth, compassion...This is not the Finale but the beginning of being in enthusiasm. With the remembrance of One Father we become pure and we get the power to perform elevated actions. His remembrance will nullify all our past sins. The Almighty will support those who aim for bringing benefit to the world and to themselves."
Blessings by Dadi Ratanmohini Ji, Additional Chief of Brahma Kumaris
Dadi Ratan Mohini Ji says, "All these days we have heard and also experienced the Divine. We must take these invaluable experiences with us always. To experience Gods love we must all take an oath of purity and increase our divine experinces."
Meditation Experience by Sis BK Mohini
Sis BK Mohini has taken the audience into a powerful experience of peace by her guided meditation commentary. The Hall was filled with powerful vibrations of peace!
Blessings by Rajayogini Dadi Hridaya Mohini Ji, Additional Chief of Brahma Kumaris
Dadi Hridaya Mohini Ji says, "It is the desire of God that each one of His children should experience peace and happiness. With Godly Powers we must become victorious over the five vices which are the cause of pain and sorrow in the world. And in this very earth we can bring a Golden Dawn"
Dadi Ji says, "We all have come to know that the world has come to an extreme and an end has to come. The Almighty God has started the task of creating a New World and for this He has called you here! He wants you to make efforts for that Deity Golden World."

Speech by Bro BK Ramesh Shah Ji, Additional Secretary General, Brahma Kumaris
Bro BK Ramesh Ji says, "When God comes he inspires us to make intense efforts to imbibe purity in the self. Like everywhere else we have to make effort to achieve something and there a race for it, God has also created a race here to be eligible for going to Golden Age and Silver Age."
He says, "The more we absorb the message of God and experience His powers and blessings and make our lives elevated... the more we make our fortune and make ourselves eligible for Golden Age"

Speech by Bro BK Brij Mohan, Joint Secretary Brahma Kumaris
Bro BK Brij Mohan says, "It is the misconception in the world that the Almighty God is doing everything in the world or making do things. If that was the case, the fruit of all actions should be experienced by God and the law cannot be applicable for human beings. Now that unrighteousness and irreligiousness has spread strongly in the world resulting in sadness and pain, it cannot be said that God our Supreme Father is doing all this to the world. By saying God is the doer and make do of everything in the world, we are escaping from our responsibility."
He says, "We have become impure and only God can give us the right direction to become pure again. The Global Festival was organised to give the message of Purity."
He says, "When the whole world has to become pure in order for Gloden Age to come, it the task of the Supreme Father only, it couldn't be done by the messengers of God as it is the responsibility of God Himself. The Supreme Father makes us realise that we have gotten ourselves stuck in lust, anger, attachment, greed and ego because we have forgotten we are all immortal and powerful souls."
He says, "As we have all received all the cooperation from so many souls in various peace projects, now we all should come together and bring Golden Age"

Speech by Sis BK Jayanti, Director Brahma Kumaris Europe and UK
Sis BK Jayanti highlighting the celebrations of the Global Festival in various other countries says, "The first foreign service of Brahma Kumaris was started in 1971, and now just after 38 years we have reached more than 130 countries. Can any Multi-National do that?? The foreign service was started with less than 10 sisters. With their true commitment and faith in God and the truth in their experience with Gods Knowledge and Powers, this message of peace and purity of God has reached so many countries across the world."
Sha says, "The Festival is being celebrated in the foreign countries with the name 'Experiencing Inner Powers and Protection'. This celebration has filled hope in the minds of people who have filled themselves with fear. The hope that each one of us can experience true happiness with peace and power. And by walking in this path we can bring peace and happiness in our lives."

Closure of Reception Session
The Reception Session of the Grand Finale of the Global Festival 'Receiving God's Powers and Blessings' ends with a three minute silent meditation.
Blessings by Rajayogini Dadi Janki Ji, Chief of Brahma Kumaris
Dadi Janki Ji gives the significance of the words 'Om Shanti'. She says, "Om Shanti is I am a Soul and my Religion is Peace. My Father is the Supreme Soul and it is time I return to my Sweet Home, the World of Silence. God's Knowledge makes us Trikaldarshi (The Knower of the Past, Present and Future roles of the self). RajaYoga makes us Trilokinath (The King of the Three Worlds). Our True Father the Almighty teaches us true knowledge and protects us from everything. His Blessings create a new life for us."
Blessings by Rajayogini Dadi Gulzar Ji, Additional Chief of Brahma Kumaris
Dadi Gulzar Ji says, " God s the Father of our Soul. He cannot be the Father of our body. The reason we can remember our bodily father easily but not the father of our soul is that we have forgotten our true identity, we have forgotten that we are immortal souls. Once we realise our true identity being a soul and start connecting with God our true Father, we can experience Him."
Dadi Ji also gave the difference of the body and the soul, the body being a mortal vehicle for the immortal soul. The two most important things to remember is that 'I am a Soul' and 'I am a being of Peace'.
She says, "For the success of anything, one must be determined. Determination is the Key. If you want to transform, then be determined!"

Speech by BK Bro Om Prakash Ji, Chairperson Indore Zone
Bro Om Prakash ji says, " We all must be aware of who we really are...God says that we are all immortal and powerful beings of light and might. We are the children of God the Almighty Authority. We truly belong to Him and no one else. We must have a clean and clear mind and intellect and we would all experience His Love, Care and Powers and Blessings. He is the Purifier and the Saviour"
Speech by BK Sis Sheilu, Senior RajaYoga Teacher, Brahma Kumaris Internation HeadQuarters
Sister Sheilu says, "This is 'Godly Time'. It is the time for Transformation. It is the time when God himself comes and transforms the World through RajaYoga. If it not possible now...then it is never possible. As it is said in Bhagawadgita that God comes when the True Human Religion and Righteousness ends...(Yada Yada Hi Dharmasya Glanirbhawati Bharata...)"
She says, "In these troubled times we need not be upset or frightened as God has come to shower His Blessings and Powers on us!"

Update at: 08.50PM ISTDadi Ratan Mohiniji, Additional Chief of the Brahma Kumaris has given the message that all of us have arrived here with the intention of meeting God. Now there is an awareness in the world that everyone should meet the Almighty, from whom we get peace, happiness and attain mukti. This is the time to recieve powers from God and inculcate them in our life. What does our Father expect from all of us? That we should recieve powers from Him so that we are free from all kinds of sorrow and free from all kind of bondages.
She also said, "I have to realise that I am that soul who is residing and running this body, and I am the child of the Almighty. Recognising the self as soul helps us to keep away from negativities and life will be full of happiness.There was one true religion in Bharath. Now it has become Kaliyug, where the dieties are worshipped to remove the sins. By inclucating the purity in our life, and through the elevated actions, we have to make our life divine. We have to live a life of peace and love."

Brahma Kumaris are always involved in the task of purifying the mind. We have to stop the wandering mind to discover happiness and peace. ;

Bro BK Neville Hodgkinson from London said "I am happy to lead a life where I understand what it means drawing power and love from God." He said that as we gradually leave our negative habits, learn more and love more, we can establish a line of communication with God and take power from the Supreme Himself. We start feeling that yes, this is something which humans can't give. And it leads to a higher consciousness. With that happiness and strength, we envision a great future in front of us. ;

Sis BK Sudesh, Director of European Centres of Brahma Kumaris, wanted everyone to ask themselves the question why we are here today? We are here today to fill our heart with Love, Powers and blessings of God. What is stopping us from receiving these gifts from God? Our Body Consciousness is stopping us. We remember God everyday asking him for his blessings but what is the form I am in when I am doing this? We do it in body consciousness, based on our physical status. Talking about power, Real power is power of love, power of compassion, power of non violence and not physical powers. If we don’t use a power for too long we lose it. The first power I need in myself is to have the Power of positive thoughts for self and everyone. Negative thoughts effect our mental and physical health which in turn affects the environment around us. We receive blessing when we are loyal to God, when we walk on the path he has shown us. The more we have unconditional love for God, the more we enjoy the relationship with him, and the more we receive his blessings.
