If the stress of life has become too much, stop in to Central Avenue's new Meditation Center to clear your mind. The center offers how-to-classes for beginners, lunchtime and evening meditations, yoga classes, and a weekly self-improvement lecture series--and everything is free.
Run by the Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual Organization, the non-profit center is funded strictly through voluntary donations, said Ann Singh, Instructor and Coordinator at the Meditation Center.
The Meditation Center moved to its new location at 184 Central in September after being offered in a local house in a residential neighborhood. The group was looking for a location that would offer more public exposure, she said.
The Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual Organization was founded in a part of India, that is now Pakistan nearly 72 years ago. Since that time, the spiritual movement has spread to more than 110 countries, Singh said. The group has been in the U.S. for 30 years, and has 50 centers around the country.
The mission of the group is to change the world by bringing out the good in individuals. When people come to understand themselves they will behave in the world in a better way, Singh said.
For a complete calendar of events, please visit the center's website at http://www.bkwsu.org/, or call the center at 438-4180.
