    Relentless service

    Even at an age of 104 (last days of life), Dadi served not with the body, but with good wishes and vibrations.

    Dadi Janki was a visionary, with an unswerving optimism. Yet no one would allow her to attend Dada Lekhraj’s spiritual discourses. Dadi had also led the development of several international projects promoting vision, values and action at grass-roots level including the UK prison staff. And now here was a lady who wanted to enrich the royals.

    What is the purpose of your visit?” Without any hesitation Dadi Ji said, “I have come to tell you beautiful things about God.” The queen was really touched because people usually came only for help. She was kept in house imprisonment to the extent that Naval would ignore his business just to keep a watch over her. m. If she is anything she will tell you, she is a Companion of God… because she communes with God all the time.”

    Great spiritual leader and a visionary

    Dadi Janki is internationally acknowledged as a great spiritual leader, Dadi’s lifelong focus had always been to align her mind and heart to God’s will and purpose.

    In 1937, at the age of 21, she took a bold decision and run away from her home to join ‘Om Mandli’ (now Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual University). In fact, when Dadi Ji came to London in 1974, the invitation was from Africa. But the Om Mandali continued to stay in Karachi as for them the human soul is neither Hindu nor Muslim.

    The whole responsibility of running the organisation was on Dadis (elderly Brahma Kumaris) including Dadi Janki.
