Maharaji
From Wikipedia, a free encyclopedia written in simple English for easy reading.
Prem Rawat, also known as Maharaji, was born in India on December 10, 1957 and started speaking to people about inner peace when he was only 3 years old.
He travels most of the year talking to people about a beautiful feeling they can feel within themselves. In a recent tour in India, he spoke to more than a million people about that possibility [1].
[edit] Maharaji's teachings
According to The Prem Rawat Foundation website, Maharaji provides inspiration and guidance about the possibility of knowing inner peace and contentment through four techniques that he calls "Knowledge".
- "Peace needs to be in everyone's life. Of all the things we have tried in this world, there is one thing we have never given a chance. That one thing is peace. If we want to hope for something, maybe we could hope in our heart that peace will come in our life. The peace that we are looking for is within. It is in the heart, waiting to be felt, and I can help you get in touch with it. It is not the world that needs peace; it is people. When people in the world are at peace within, the world will be at peace."
His students come from all walks of life: farmers and fishermen in poor countries, executives in global corporations, and diplomats and government officials and international institutions. Some of his students are in their late teens, and others have been his students for more than thirty-five years.
