Brahma Kumaris at "India Day 2018" Celebrations in Moscow, Russia
The Indian National Cultural Centre, the Indian Business Alliance of Moscow, along with few other Indian companies based in Moscow have organized the 5th annual “Day of India” celebrations in one of the most beautiful parks of Moscow. The program was supported by the Department of Culture, Government of Moscow, and the Embassy of India, Moscow.
BK Sister Sudha, the leader of Bramha Kumaris in Moscow, Russia, gave a special message on this occasion, “Thank you very much for your love of India. These three days are dedicated to mark the Independence Day of India which is celebrated on the 15th of August every year. When we say independance we mean freedom. Freedom against any slavery. So today you have a great opportunity to free yourself from any kind of slavery such as smoking, drinking, or anger. And then your happiness will be constant.”
For the first time Raksha Bandhan celebrations were organised by the Brahma Kumaris on the Day of India. BK Sudha explained the great significance of the ancient Indian traditional tying of the sacred thread – Rakhi is the symbol of the original state of purity and divinity. Hundreds of visitors, children, youth, aged, males and females thronged to get the Rakhi tied.
Thousands of Muscovites, children, youth and aged, people from all walks of life, attended the mega event with a lot of zeal and enthusiasm.
Addressing the Russian audience Mr. G. Balasubramaniam, Dy. Chief of the Mission, Embassy of India said, “We are very grateful for your support and our friendship is getting stronger from year to year. On behalf of the Indian Embassy I promise you support as well. Our friendship has been lasting for 70 years already and has been based on a deep level. So we could see positive perspective for it to be continued. Our friendship is eternal. Therefore thank you for your support and we hope you will enjoy today’s celebration. Everyone was given the understanding of soul, Supreme Soul and the attainments through the practice of Ancient Raja Yoga Meditation in the modern world.”
People left home with happy hearts!
