Munish Sood
Mandi
A grand spiritual evening dedicated to the theme “Harmony in Relationships” was organized at the historic Paddal Ground in Mandi by the Mandi branch of the Brahma Kumaris Ishwariya Vishwa Vidyalaya. The event witnessed an overwhelming public participation, with more than 5,000 people attending the discourse.
The highlight of the evening was the presence of internationally renowned spiritual speaker Sister Shivani, who delivered a deeply inspiring address on emotional balance, inner peace, and the importance of value-based living. The programme began with the ceremonial lighting of the lamp in the presence of dignitaries and spiritual leaders.
Among those present on the occasion were Superintendent of Police Abhimanyu Singh, Vice-Chancellor of Sardar Patel University Dr. Lalit Kumar Awasthi, and Sheela Didi, in-charge of the Brahma Kumaris Mandi centre, along with several other distinguished guests.
In her address, Sister Shivani emphasized that harmony in relationships begins with self-awareness and the recognition of one’s true identity as a soul. She said that anger, impulsive reactions, and negative emotions often damage human relationships, while patience, compassion, and understanding strengthen them.
She further highlighted the role of Rajyoga meditation, practiced and taught by Brahma Kumaris Ishwariya Vishwa Vidyalaya, as a powerful tool for mental stability and inner empowerment. According to her, consistent practice of meditation helps individuals remain calm in challenging situations and respond with clarity rather than reaction.
Sister Shivani also encouraged the audience to take a collective pledge to avoid responding in anger and instead adopt a life guided by love, respect, and cooperation. The session concluded with a guided Rajyoga meditation experience, during which thousands of participants reported a profound sense of peace and positivity.
The atmosphere at the venue remained spiritually charged throughout the programme, with many attendees expressing that the session offered practical guidance for improving daily relationships and emotional wellbeing.
