WHAT's NEW
Wellbeing in Peterborough
Brahma Kumaris in Peterborough held their second Wellbeing Fair this year at the Friends Meeting House in September - with the help of friends from Leicester, Loughborough, Derby, Milton Keynes, Cambridge, Coventry and the Global Retreat Centre. There were talks and conversations with Neville Hodgkinson and others, meditations, live music, movement sessions, spiritual games such as Spiritual Snakes & Ladders and The Emergency Optimist, a book/gift stall and a stand with information about environmental issues and our eco initiatives. Response was very warm. One visitor said: "It confirms and supports the experiences and thoughts I have had for a long time - offering a fresh perspective. I like the personal experiences and stories shared to illustrate this. It was very useful."
Faiths in Harmony at Kings College Chapel
Organised by Unity in Diversity, the Humanity in Harmony interfaith concert took place in September at King’s College Chapel on the Strand in Central London. The event brought together over 100 attendees and performers across eight faith traditions - Zoroastrian, Brahma Kumaris, Sikh, Pagan, Bahá’í, Buddhist, Hindu and Church of Scientology - to celebrate diversity, respect and shared humanity in cultural expression. Sangeetha and Kanishaa of the Brahma Kumaris performed a Bharatanatyam dance on the theme 'Visions for a Better World'.

Eye of the Storm
A wise sea captain caught in a tropical storm knows that if he holds his vessel on the periphery it will get hurled from one side to the other. If he can reach the eye of the storm, he will enter a place of stillness. The storm will then subside and the ship can continue its journey.
Similarly, when everything around me is changing in a very intense way, the best place for me to seek shelter and refuge is not on the outside, but deep within the self, where I can get in touch with my own inner being, find strength and stability.
