The President of India, Smt Droupadi Murmu, graced the launch ceremony of the Brahma Kumaris’ annual theme for 2025‑26, “Meditation for World Unity and Trust”, in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh on November 28, 2025.
Speaking at the event, the President highlighted that humanity has achieved unprecedented progress through science and technology. Moreover, she noted that the era of information technology, artificial intelligence, digital transformation, and space exploration has made life more convenient, accessible, and resource‑rich.
At the same time, she cautioned that rapid advancement has also brought stress, insecurity, distrust, and loneliness. Therefore, she urged people to embark on a journey of introspection. She explained that peace and joy lie within, not in external objects. Furthermore, she stressed that when spiritual consciousness awakens, love, brotherhood, compassion, and unity naturally become part of life.
The President remarked that a calm and stable mind plants the seeds of peace in society, which ultimately builds the foundation of global unity. She added that a strong spirit is essential to realise the concept of world harmony.
In addition, she praised the Brahma Kumaris for their inspiring efforts in promoting world peace, human values, women’s empowerment, spiritual awakening, education, and meditation. She expressed confidence that the organisation will continue to play a vital role in building a better, peaceful, and trusting world.
