Main commitment of humankind

The main commitment of humankind on this earth is to protect life in all forms and manifestations of existence. To realize this, it is necessary to adopt a different way of thinking and acting in everyday life. It is important to introduce love, help, tolerance, and understanding not only between individuals but among all nations, cultures, races, and religions.

“My mission is to help people understand themselves, to understand others, to love and protect all living beings, and ultimately to realise God”.

My teaching is Mahaprabhuji’s teaching, the teachings of the Vedas and the Upanishads.

The operation that I want to perform on you is the one that removes all karma. I would like to be your lawyer before the highest Law. My aim and my wish for you is that at the end of your lives you do not remain empty-handed, but that you carry in yourselves the knowledge and the light of Reality.
