Can you give me some background information about Prem Rawat—Maharaji?
Prem Rawat, known also by the honorary title Maharaji, has traveled the world for three decades, inspiring people to find peace within.
His message is simple and profound. Speaking at the United Nations Conference Centre in Bangkok, Thailand, he expressed, “Peace needs to be in everyone’s life. Of all the things we have tried in this world, there is one thing we have never given a chance. That one thing is peace. The peace we are looking for is within. It is in the heart, waiting to be felt, and I can help you get in touch with it. It is not the world that needs peace; it is people. When people in the world are at peace within, the world will be at peace.”
Born in India, Maharaji began addressing audiences at age three. At eight, he started presenting his message of peace throughout the Indian subcontinent. At thirteen, he was invited to speak in London. Since then, more than 7.5 million people in over 50 countries have come to him for inspiration and guidance.
For those who wish to make peace a reality in their life, he offers a way to go inside and savor the peace that is within.
The dissemination of his message, which is made available in more than 88 countries and 70 languages, is entirely supported by voluntary contributions and the sale of related materials. He supports himself and his family through independent means.
