Brief Life History of Brahma Baba:

Brahma Baba was a self-made millionaire.  Through his own effort and wit, he built his business and had a steady flow of clients mostly from royal families.  Baba’s business was not a small shop selling simple gold rings and chains.  No.  Baba only dealt with royalty; designing and making for them all their stately gifts and jewellery for their families.

In fact Baba would adorn his wife, daughters and daughters in law with different styles everyday to model his creations.  Upon seeing those gems gilded in gold, people would demand the same styles.  When Nirmalshanta Dadi was once wearing some necklace, one of the clients said they liked what she was wearing and ordered the same.  Baba said he would have it ready for them the next day.  He then used his yukti and asked Nirmal Shanta Dadi to give to him the necklace she was wearing.  She possessively declined.  Baba said he had another nice one waiting for her… and she gleefully handed over the one she was wearing!

The royalty of that time treated Baba like a maharaja providing utmost facilities and homage at all times. The King of Udaipur who was paralysed from waist down and bound to a wheelchair would say in jest: “God made a mistake of making me a king, he should have made you a king instead.”

The King of Nepal would send a palanquin for Baba to cross the mountains easily, because one could only cross the terrain on horseback.  There were no tarmac roads to Kathmandu in those days.  Even in palanquins there was a status.  The king would have a palanquin carried by 16 bearers.  The queen, 8 bearers and ministers 4 bearers.  The King of Nepal would send a palanquin of 8 bearers for Baba equal status to that of his queen.
Such was our Baba.

ब्रह्मा बाबा का मनाया स्मृति दिवस

प्रजापिता ब्रह्माकुमारी ईश्वरीय विश्वविद्यालय की अतिरिक्त मुख्य प्रशासिका राजयोगिनी दादी रतनमोहिनी ने कहा कि अध्यात्म की गहराई की अनुभूति किए बिना मानसिक विकृतियों में उलझे मन को शांत करना असंभव है। विश्व में मूल्यों को जमीनी हकीकत पर बढ़ावा देना बड़ा कार्य है, लेकिन सामूहिक रूप से इस कार्य को संपन्न करना कोई मुश्किल नहीं है। वर्तमान संसार में बदल रहे हालात को देखते हुए मनोबल को बढ़ाने के लिए राजयोग का नियमित अभ्यास करना जरूरी हो गया है। वे सोमवार को प्रजापिता ब्रह्माकुमारी ईश्वरीय विश्वविद्यालय के अंतरराष्ट्रीय मुख्यालय पांडव भवन में संगठन के संस्थापक प्रजापिता ब्रह्मा बाबा के स्मृति दिवस पर आयोजित कार्यक्रम को संबोधित कर रही थी। पांडव भवन में राज्य सरकार की ओर से जारी कोविड-19 गाइडलाइन के तहत सादे तौर पर मनाए गए स्मृति दिवस पर संगठन की संयुक्त मुख्य प्रशासिका राजयोगिनी दादी पूर्णशांता ने कहा कि ब्रह्मा बाबा ने स्वयं को त्याग, तपस्या की साक्षातमूर्त बनाकर अनेकानेक मनुष्यों के मन में विश्वकल्याण की भावना के बीच बोए। जो वटवृक्ष की तरह आज समूचे विश्व में फलीभूत हो रहे हैं।
इस मौके कोविड-19 नियमों की अनुपालना में राजयोगी श्रद्धालु सवेरे से ही प्रजापिता ब्रह्मा बाबा के समाधि स्थल शान्ति स्तम्भ पर मास्क पहनकर सोशल डिस्टेंसिंग बनाते हुए साधना करते रहे।
