As the heartland of the United States, the Midwest is known for traditional values, enduring stability and tremendous opportunities. Midwesterners have won the respect of the nation for their ability to find a better way. One of the Midwests hidden treasures is its Brahma Kumaris meditation centers. The Brahma Kumaris contribute spiritual resources to the Midwesterner's efforts to make life work better both for the individual and the collective. These oases of peace share meditative tools for self transformation.
People are welcome to visit the Brahma Kumaris centers and experiment with a higher level of consciousness called soul consciousness. From a spiritual perspective, individuals are viewed as souls and humankind as one family. We offer instruction in Raja Yoga meditation and programs for self development including positive thinking and inner leadership. We advocate and practice peace, integrity and respect for all. These values allow us to create and nurture kindness, trust and harmony in our communities. There are currently Brahma Kumaris activities in three Midwest states: Illinois, Michigan, and Ohio. The hub of Midwest service is our meditation center in Chicago.
