We Serve Souls

Brahma Kumaris is a worldwide spiritual movement dedicated to personal transformation and world renewal. It is the largest spiritual organization in the world led by women. The Brahma Kumaris provides courses, seminars and retreats on a wide range of personal growth subjects. All our courses are inspired by the principle at the heart of Raja Yoga -- that there is a place of peace within all of us -- and by learning to experience it we can solve problems with greater compassion and integrity.
