He emphasized the importance of observing one’s attention, emotions, and thoughts, and offered insightful reflections on the impact of one’s presence—shaped through physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual energy.On Friday, April 25, Brother Enrique was invited by the Department of Neurology at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), to lead a professional development session titled “Leadership Today.” Attendees included researchers, PhD candidates, and lab students from Dr. Reza Abbasi-Asl’s laboratory, as well as collaborators from other UCSF labs. Dr. Abbasi-Asl, Principal Investigator, expressed deep appreciation for the session, noting the profound connection between leadership and relationships that was explored. The experience of meditation, accompanied by live harp music, was especially well-received. Dr. Abbasi-Asl shared that the peaceful atmosphere and uplifting vibrations left a lasting impression on him. One PhD student described the meditation experience as one of true mindful rest, leaving him feeling completely refreshed. Many attendees expressed heartfelt gratitude and a strong interest in participating in future sessions.That same evening, Brother Enrique led a public meditation program titled “Cultivating Inner Peace and Joy,” again accompanied by soothing live harp music. During his remarks, he highlighted that meditation is not merely a practice, but a way of life. He reminded all present that the greatest gift one can offer is the gift of peace.In honor of Earth Day, Brother Enrique also shared peaceful vibrations with nature, recognizing and revering its inherent beauty and serenity.We are grateful for his inspiring visit and the spiritual sustenance it offered to many.Best regards and in Baba's remembrance, BK San Francisco Center family<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://sfoffice[at]us.brahmakumaris.org">sfoffice[at]us.brahmakumaris.org</a> <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.bksanfrancisco.org">www.bksanfrancisco.org</a><figure class="image image_resized" style="width:75%;"><img src="https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/Enrique_bhai_Service_News_1_images_1_de38ac0529.jpg" alt="Enrique bhai Service News (1)-images-1.jpg" srcset="https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/thumbnail_Enrique_bhai_Service_News_1_images_1_de38ac0529.jpg 120w,https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/small_Enrique_bhai_Service_News_1_images_1_de38ac0529.jpg 386w,https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/medium_Enrique_bhai_Service_News_1_images_1_de38ac0529.jpg 580w,https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/large_Enrique_bhai_Service_News_1_images_1_de38ac0529.jpg 773w," sizes="100vw" width="773px"></figure><figure class="image image_resized" style="width:75%;"><img src="https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/Enrique_bhai_Service_News_1_images_2_7bcbca6d8a.jpg" alt="Enrique bhai Service News (1)-images-2.jpg" srcset="https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/thumbnail_Enrique_bhai_Service_News_1_images_2_7bcbca6d8a.jpg 120w,https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/small_Enrique_bhai_Service_News_1_images_2_7bcbca6d8a.jpg 386w,https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/medium_Enrique_bhai_Service_News_1_images_2_7bcbca6d8a.jpg 580w,https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/large_Enrique_bhai_Service_News_1_images_2_7bcbca6d8a.jpg 773w," sizes="100vw" width="773px"></figure><figure class="image image_resized" style="width:75%;"><img src="https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/Enrique_bhai_Service_News_1_images_3_d93038351f.jpg" alt="Enrique bhai Service News (1)-images-3.jpg" srcset="https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/thumbnail_Enrique_bhai_Service_News_1_images_3_d93038351f.jpg 120w,https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/small_Enrique_bhai_Service_News_1_images_3_d93038351f.jpg 386w,https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/medium_Enrique_bhai_Service_News_1_images_3_d93038351f.jpg 580w,https://d3dfjidmqdc9yy.cloudfront.net/images-prod/large_Enrique_bhai_Service_News_1_images_3_d93038351f.jpg 773w," sizes="100vw" width="773px"></figure>
