Dada Lekhraj :
Instrument and messenger for world
January 18th is the remembrance day of a 'Mahathma', an elevated soul
of the human dynasty. He was a man who was full of all virtues, full of
divinity and wisdom. You only needed to have a glimpse of him to
immediately be attracted by his spiritual charm. His eyes would pull you
and without knowing, you would be merged in that vision of divine love
and sweetness. One second was enough to make you accept that he was not
an ordinary human being. There was something in his subtle smile filled
with blissful satisfaction and contentment that filled your heart with
joy and hope.

Dada
Lekhraj |
Dada Lekhraj was born in the year 1876 in Sindh India. He was a very
famous jeweller of his time and he was highly regarded among the royal
families, relatives, friends and villagers for his divinity, knowledge
and spirituality. He was very loving and kind in nature and therefore
everyone called him 'Dada' (Elder brother) with much love.
An urge from within, a divine inspiration pulled him to an inner
withdrawal and intensive meditation. (He realised that time were
changing and he was to participate in a task of great importance. In the
beginning, nothing was clear till the moment of being bestowed visions
of a future not so far from the present).
Godly knowledge
A series of trance experiences between 1936 and 1937 made him realise
what he had to do. God, the Supreme Father, Supreme Soul, had chosen him
to play a leading role for the transformation of this dying world, to
one which would be a pleasure to live in, for every single human being.
A real paradise on earth. It took him no time to surrender his mind,
body and wealth towards such a noble and desirable achievement.
In this world of sorrow, full of distress and peace less-ness God
himself has selected Dada Lekhraj as his instrument to bring benefit to
the whole world and then thereafter his name changed as father Brahma or
Prajapitha Brahma (father of the humanity) lovingly called as Brahma
Baba. Father Brahma attained all virtues from The Supreme by doing
intense meditation and listening to and inculcating his Godly knowledge.
Powerful vibrations
Father Brahma was a living example to the world. He lived an ordinary
life in a peaceful, royal manner. The teachings given by God made him
more of a complete human soul, who can be said as a deity. He had the
sparkle of purity and royalty abundantly. Because of that whoever went
closer to him such as, kings, VIPs and ordinary people, were able to
feel those extraordinary vibrations of power and royalty of purity. They
felt they have achieved their meaning of life and were full of peace.
They were able to get the feelings of real soul consciousness even
without having a conversation with him. He was spreading such pure and
powerful vibrations to the world.
Gradually his efforts led him towards a state beyond the effects of
Karma. Remaining in equanimity in the face of praise and defamation,
happiness and sorrow, victory and defeat - and through a powerful and
constant link with the Supreme in a state of soul consciousness, he was
able to burn away the seeds of actions sown in his many past births. As
a detached observer Brahma Baba became more and more an image that
granted visions to many, as a being of light, a perfect and complete
being. Nearing his 93rd year of life, he had already achieved the goal
of Raja Yoga teachings and that was visible in his outlook, words and
actions. His part was again changing. Prajapitha Brahma the Father of
Humanity left his physical body on January 18, 1969 to commence the next
phase of his service to mankind.
Spiritual university
Father Brahma is the founder of Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual
University. This spiritual university was established in the year 1936
with the noble vision to bring benefit to all souls in this world by
going beyond the limitations of religion, language, race, etc. The head
office of this spiritual university is in Madhuban, Rajasthan, India.
But this spiritual university has extended its services to most parts of
this globe, in more than 130 countries including UK, America, France,
Italy, German, Africa and more than 8,500 centres are currently
delivering the spiritual knowledge given by the Supreme Soul daily.
Barhma Kumaris has obtained global awards for its altruistic services.
All the teachings given by Brahma Kumaris are free of charge. The
teachings given by Brahma Kumaris combine meditation and spiritual
knowledge in a practical way to enable human beings to control their
sense organs. And thereby enable their mind and intellects to experience
Godly super sensuous joy. Therefore people can free themselves from the
defects of five vices such as anger, lust, ego, attachment and greed;
and become very loving in nature, full of happiness, full of inner peace
and full of virtues, hence they will be able to lead a meaningful life.
Brahma Kumaris Raja Yoga Centres worldwide observed a special day of
meditation on January 18, 2011 in remembrance of the supreme Truth
giving thanks to the service and life of such an inspiring personality.
