Transformation

[Guest guest]

>From 'What is Enlightenment?' magazine

"It's God's task to purify the impure, to transform the world," Dadi Janki tell

us. "But He can't do it alone. He says, 'I've got to get it done through you.

You've created hell in the world, and so you have to be the instruments to

create heaven. Then you can be the masters of the heaven'." This message is

Dadi Janki's mandate for readers. And while this dimunitive woman draped in a

white sari might appear to be from an era long past, she is a guiding force to

a bright future. "Those with a positive vision of the future," she writies,

"gives us an image of the world...where the highest human potential is fully

realized. But we can get to that stage only where there are leaders to take us

there."

And she is determined to create those leaders. Through "Call of the Times"

dialogues, she invites key figures in government, business, and the nonprofit

sector from all five continents to engage in the deepest level of dialogue and

reflection about the current human situation. After these dialogues, she has

been known to select someone to continue to work directly with her - meditating

and engaging in discussion - to insure that the person viscerally grasps our

world crisis and is compelled to take action in new and profound ways. For

example, after meeting Dadi Janki and the Brahma Kumaris, Brian Bacon,

strategic advisor to some of the world's largest multinationals, began to offer

his highly regarded leadership trainings gratis at the Brahma Kumari World

Spiritual University. And Joseph Jaworski, founder of Generon Consulting,

credits Dadi Janki with the inspiration of the Global Leadership Initiative,

designed to tackle the biggest challenges facing humanity.

"Her leadership is not based on any formal position that she holds," says Tex

Gunning, president of Unilever Bestfoods Asia. "Her power comes purely from her

spiritual credibility. As a leader, the more i've searched for role models, the

more i've come to realize that this is the most profound power. If my boss asks

me to make a meeting, I look at my agenda first. But if Dadi Janki, with whom I

have no formal relationship, tells me to be in London, I just get on plane!" As

she makes profoundly clear to those who come in contact with her, there is no

choice but to respond to the call to change the world. "As God says, 'This is

what you have to do,' And we must say, 'Yes, we will'."

Thanks for sharing this beautiful story from Dr Upadhyay. It has been published

in many Sai magazines including the UK's ' Hatfield Magazine'.

 

Bless you!

Sai Ram.

 

I used to quote from Dr. Upadhays experience to many friends. I was in UK in

April & was telling a friend Suresh about Dr. Upadhyay's experience. We had the

opportunity to attend Bhajans on Sunday at a school in Greenford nr Hunslow. At

the end of the bhajans there was a announcement that there was a special guest

who would address us. It was Dr. Upadhyay. He spoke about his recent trip to Sri

Lanka for the Tsunami affected with a team of doctors from UK. He shared his

experiences about Swamis grace, the condition of the victoms & their seva

experience.

 

We were speaking of Dr Upadhyay & Dr. Eric in our car on way to the centre.

Needless to say we were flummoxed. My friend who was not a Sai Devotee was in a

bit of a daze.

 

After his speech I went up to Dr. Upadhay & spoke to him about this

coincidence. Dr. Upadhyay said this is no coincidence but the Leela of our

Lord.

 

Jai Sai Ram
