Brahma Kumaris Raja Yoga Centre on Pause for Peace initiative

- Judith Phiri Sunday Life Reporter

NON -Profit Worldwide Organisati­on, Brahma Kumaris Raja Yoga Centre was scheduled to launch its Pause for Peace initiative in Bulawayo yesterday which is meant to encourage people promote peace in the country.

The Pause for Peace initiative was designed to teach people from all ages and from all walks of life how to pause, reflect, calm the mind, think objectivel­y and respond from a place of neutrality, emotional calm and mental clarity rather than from a place of reactive selfdefenc­e, fear or anger.

Brahma Kumaris Raja Yoga Centre Project coordinato­r Sister Rekha Vithal said the project has been carried out successful­ly in some parts of the country .

“The success of the project in other African countries has been overwhelmi­ng and therefore we propose to take this project to all provinces of Zimbabwe.

We are very excited to conduct a training session in Bulawayo at Sizinda Vocational Training Youth Centre.

This is to provide a platform for Zimbabwean­s to create a peaceful and positive change in our life in line with President Mnangagwa’s 2030 vision of a middle income economy.

In support we aim to cultivate individual dignity of the soul and a deepening of a collective consciousn­ess of peace.

These sessions will be at no cost to you and we are encouragin­g all to participat­e by simply pausing for a minute or two and reflect on peace.

From this stillness we can tap into our true nature, which is peaceful, loving, truthful, pure and joyous,” said Sister Vithal.
