The program began with meditation under live music, an atmosphere of freshness and peace was felt at that moment, and everyone felt a light touch of the Supreme Father to our hearts. And then everyone participated in a quiz about the biography of God, many did not know the answers to questions about where God lives or what His exact name is, but the students of the Brahma Kumaris Spiritual University explained these points in an accessible and detailed manner.</span></p><p><span style="font-size:22px;">The program included a lot of music, commentary on meditation. Several famous musicians from Irkutsk gathered at the program, pianists and guitarists decorated the meeting. At the end, there was a conversation about how God's appearance in the physical world is also an appearance, the birthday of His children, that is, all of us. And then we lit candles together, cut the birthday cake and received gifts from God in the form of blessings.</span></p><p><span style="font-size:22px;">Now is a special time when we can feel the presence of the Supreme Father, just by creating a thought about it and connecting with him, and to learn the methods of how to do this.

The weekly issue is prepared in Moscow and sent by e-mail to partners who contribute it to their publications. Readers love and trust the Weekly very much.<span class="gmail_default">&nbsp;</span>Among the authors of "New Tuesday" are famous writers and public figures, winners of various awards and competitions, including the prestigious Golden Pen award in the journalistic community. "New Tuesday" is an all-Russian weekly and has a tab application in the media of all the Federal Districts, including the Federal Weekly "Mir Novostei (World News). The total readership is more than 2.2 million people.</span>&nbsp;<br><br><span style="font-family:georgia, serif;font-size:large;"><strong>Leonid Arikh is also a laureate of the Golden Pen of Russia, Prize of the Union of Journalists of Russia.</strong>&nbsp;It is awarded annually for outstanding professional achievements, long-term work in the Russian press, radio and television, civic position and impeccable moral authority among colleagues.</span>&nbsp;<br><br><span style="font-family:georgia, serif;font-size:large;">During his warm-hearted, get-acquainted meeting with Didi at the Moscow center, Mr Arikh learned about the Center and its activities, and about the experiences of the students, who, with the help of Spiritual Knowledge and Raja Yoga, were able to easily overcome professional burnout, stress, bad habits – smoking, alcohol, and gain control over their minds and emotions.&nbsp; Mr Arikh was openly skeptical: "I doubt it! How is all this possible!" However, as an open hearted journalist he asked nearly 108 questions including about how the organisation was established and how everything began, who is Brahma? Can he be seen? His questions finished after meditating in Baba's room.</span>&nbsp;<br><br><span style="font-family:georgia, serif;font-size:large;">Indeed, how could one believe that a public organization exists on the voluntary, incognito students’ contributions, that they do everything with great enthusiasm. They maintain perfect cleanliness and beauty in the Center; prepare, conduct non-profit programs for all kinds of &nbsp;people; work on socially significant projects; even travel by invitation to other cities to give lectures! And no one gets a salary! For them it's a service and their sincere, pure desire for the Center to live, develop, and benefit not only themselves, but also other people, the city, the country, and the world. The journalist was met with something incomprehensible, but so attractive, some kind of miracle!</span>&nbsp;<br><br><span style="font-family:georgia, serif;font-size:large;">During a friendly lunch, the distinguished guests met a cook, a doctor by profession; a teacher of chemistry and biology, and a practicing psychologist who prepared beautiful fragrant pastries and decorated the table. At near-by tables, several people were decorating little cakes for the next day's program. In the yard, another student, a builder, an artist, and a designer by profession, was planting flowers as a gardener.</span>&nbsp;<br><br><span style="font-family:georgia, serif;font-size:large;">Mr Arikh asked: "You say that your self-improvement study lasts for the whole life. Do you give any diplomas to your students?" We replied that here we learn to live consciously, improve our character, and be filled with inner power. Therefore, our diploma is life itself, which becomes an inspiration for others.</span>&nbsp;<br><br><span style="font-family:georgia, serif;font-size:large;">We presented Mr Arikh with the Diploma of&nbsp;Public&nbsp;Recognition "Diamond of Benevolence" with the words: "For dedication to the profession, friendly and honest conversation with the reader, as a sign of respect for the work that helps build a better future."</span>&nbsp;<br><br><span style="font-family:georgia, serif;font-size:large;">Our meeting was so special and close to our hearts that we did not even notice that three hours had passed. We exchanged gifts. We presented our books where one can find answers to many questions.</span>&nbsp;<br><br><span style="font-family:georgia, serif;font-size:large;"><strong>Mr Arikh's newspaper had published an interview of Sudha Didi, "Future has Hope" by the President of the "My Moscow" Foundation - Ms. Vera Boldycheva, a Journalist and well wisher of Brahma Kumaris.</strong>&nbsp;She had been inspired to do a special interview with Didi Sudha after Didi had received the&nbsp;<strong>Pravasi Bharatiya Samman Award 2025 from the Honourable President of India Her Excellency Droupadi Murmu.&nbsp;</strong>[See photos in the slider.] The interview, published &nbsp;in Leonod Arikh's Weekly, was the instrument for his visit to Baba's home.
