Dadi Janki (1 Jan 1916 - 27 march 2020) was the chief administrative head of the Prajapita Brahmakumaris, the world's largest spiritual organization led, administered and taught by women and which have 9000 service centers spanning across 170 countries in the world. The Prajapita Brahmakumaris is also known as the Adi Devi Devatha Sanathana Dharma and is a monotheistic Dharmic sect which worships God as an incorporeal point of light and consider Him the same as Jehovah, Allah, Ahura Mazda, Waheguru in the other monotheistic religions.

Dadi Janki was often considered as the lone female equivalent of the Pope or Ayatollah or Shankaracharya or Dalai Lama in a religious world overwhelmingly dominated by male leaders.

Dadi, which means 'grandmother' in Indian language, trained and prepared thousands of female spiritual teachers for decades, who are now engaged in imparting values and spiritual teachings around the world .

She has conducted lectures and seminars at various national and international events for the promotion of human values and the empowerment of women around the world .

Through her many years of work, Dadi Janki has provided guidance and support to many, counseling them in a variety of areas, including emotional and psychological problems, family relationships and substance abuse.

Her daily routine started at 3 am in the morning for meditation till 7 am. Her breakfast included oatmeal, upma and fruits followed by khichdi or vegetables in lunch and condensed soup of vegetables in dinner.

In 1978, Scientists at the Medical and Science, Research Institute at the University of Texas, USA examined the brain wave pattern of Dadi Janki. She was described as the most stable mind in the world as her mental state remained completely undisturbed despite various kinds of external stimuli being applied. It was found that she emits delta waves even at trying times, leaving examiners surprised.

(Delta brainwaves are slow, loud brainwaves- low frequency and deep penetrating, like a drum beat. They are generated in deepest meditation and dreamless sleep. Healing and regeneration are stimulated in this state.)

She attributes her equanimous mental state to Raja Yoga meditation. Sharing tips for a calm mind, she said, "We waste a lot of time criticizing others instead of focusing on ourselves."

In 2004, she was awarded Grand Cordon of the first order of Al Istiklal (the Medal of Independence) by HM King Abdullah of Jordan for her humanitarian services to the world.

In 2005, The Peace Abbey presented Dadi Janki with the 2005 Courage of Conscience Award for a lifetime dedicated to the service of humanity.

In 2019, at the age of 103, she travelled almost 72000 km in India and across the world for her services.

Upon her death, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi tweeted: "Janki Dadi worked diligently for the society. Her efforts made a positive difference in the lives of many people ." The Indian president President Ram Nath Kovind stated that her contributions in the fields of spirituality, social welfare and women's empowerment had been invaluable.

Dadi Hirdaya Mohini has now taken charge as the chief administrative head of the Prajapita Brahmakumaris at present.

The Janki Foundation for promoting spirituality in Healthcare, was inspired and launched by Dadi Janki, and which advocates a healthcare model that combines the best of modern medicine with complementary approaches and spirituality. Research findings and clinical experience increasingly reveal the psychosomatic nature of disease and that spiritual factors have a significant part to play in recovery from illness.

Launched in December 1997 at the Royal College of Physicians, London, the Janki Foundation’s premise is that better understanding of these factors can benefit both patient and practitioner by promoting healing, reducing stress and staff fatigue and raising morale.

The President – About Dadi Janki

Dadi Janki has also published several books, including Companion of God, Wings of Soul, and Pearls of Wisdom.


Some wise sayings of Dadi Janki...


“Yoga is awareness, a Sadhana of human to divine consciousness. The modern system looks after just physical health, whereas the term Health, encompasses a complete mental, social, physical and spiritual well-being. Raja Yoga meditation changes the internal physiological response to environmental circumstances, thereby creating an adaptive and positive response. The power of the mind to resist disease is increased enormously as the subconscious level is healed and higher consciousness is awakened.”


“At least, put an end to the crisis within your own mind when you can’t do much about the crisis outside of you. Flexibility means converting your problems into teachers. Never lose hope, never give up — if the task is given, you will also get the power to fulfil it. Light and Might are with you as your Right from God. You can bend only when you are strong. Be like the lotus, take what is useful but do not let the dirt spoil your beauty. Sorrow makes one sick and scared, so do not take it from anyone. If you allow the negative in word, thought or form to enter you, then it is due to your weakness. Always ask what you have to do at this moment in time and not past or future.”

SSA Pen Jee,
your post above by itself is a sign of progress, be thankful to Him  for it, I am sure many of us would like to be in your shoes.
Having said that, if you want to go further, firstly do not rush, for it is no race with none.
Secondly, appreciate what you have achieved, and remain as a humble beggar at His door, for if you do His bhakti sincerely, be sure that He will not behold Himself, rather bless you more abundantly.
He is the source of all goodness, happiness, contentment, wisdom, peace ... so just be faithful at His door, for it is here where you will obtain all that you wish for, even to the extent of He Himself Waheguru Akal Purukh.
Stay blessed.

Dhan Guru Nanak.
Happy Gurpurab of  Sree Guru Nanak Dev Maharaj  to all humanity, avtaar of  Akal Purukh.

I view the Gurmantar, as revealed by the Guru, as a medium for erasing a Sikh's sins accumulated in the all the four yugs, because we have been around in all previous yugs, for sure I have been. There is definitely cosmic reason behind it. I think that is what Bhai Gurdas Ji is indicting towards.
 

Happy Gurpurab  Best Wishes To Everyone !!!

Dear Guest New to simran,
He is the only doer, the one pulling all the strings, nothing happens without His hukum.
If He wants, He can make even stones carry out His hukum. 
So  Guest Jee, it is all His credit alone.
He has mysterious and wonderous ways to bring jeev atmas to walk the path leading to Him.
Ultimately, one has to leave everything and  see Him alone in the horizons. He is only the beloved Sachay Patshaah, and we His lovers.
Yes, we have to be good and helpful to all, as all carry His light, and as all of us are struggling souls in this mayevee creation, finding our way to go back to Him. 
It takes nothing to be kind and a helpful hand.
Stay blessed.

Bhen ji here is a good practical mention by sant ji when waking up
 

Q) Dearest Guru Jee, why is it that if throughout Gurbani supreme importance of devotion of Nam bhakti is told us to be practiced, yet people try so many ways mainly due accordingly to their understanding and perception of what bhakti is all about ?
 
A) Dear sikh, please do understand that absolutely nobody can do this pure and highest bhakti of Nam by themselves, as seen in the following verse of Sree Guru Arjun Dev Maharaj:
ਜਿਸੁ ਭਾਵੈ ਤਿਸੁ ਆਪਨ ਨਾਇ ਲਾਵੈ ॥
Jis Bhaavai This Aapan Naae Laavai ||
He attaches whomever He pleases to His Name.
 
*It is absolutely in His hands, that to whom He wants to pull back to Himself,  He attaches that jeev atma into the bhakti of His holy Name.
Others will just swim above it, or find it boring and ignore it.
