Rajnath to inaugurate Divya Sanskriti Bhawan of Brahma Kumaris in Lucknow on Friday

Lucknow, Nov 12 (PTI Defence Minister and Lucknow MP Rajnath Singh will on Friday inaugurate a newly built Divya Sanskriti Bhawan at Gulzar Upvan, the Rajyoga meditation centre of the Brahma Kumaris on Sultanpur Road.

    Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak will also attend the event, B K Radha Behen, sub-zone in-charge of Brahma Kumaris, said on Thursday.

    Ahead of the defence minister’s visit, senior police officers, including the DCP (South) and the ACP, visited the Gulzar Upvan on Thursday to review the security arrangements.

    The Brahma Kumaris, a women-led spiritual movement founded in 1936-1937, is celebrating its 90th foundation year and 72 years of its services in Lucknow.

    The objective behind establishing the Divya Sanskriti Bhawan is to promote human values and revive, preserve and enrich spiritual and cultural values in society, Radha Behen said.

    The Bhawan will host regular spiritual and meditation sessions and provide free Rajyoga training to the general public, she said.

    The campus is being developed in phases. The second phase envisages a large auditorium with a seating capacity of 2,000 people, while the third phase will include accommodation facilities for around 300 people, Radha Behen said.

    In November last year, President Droupadi Murmu took part in Rajyoga meditation at the state-level launch of ‘Meditation for World Unity and Trust’ on the campus.
