History Of The Institution

Prajapita Brahmakumaris Ishwariya Vishwa Vidyalaya was established in Sindh Hyderabad (now in Pakistan) in the year 1937. The institution has a very unique, unexpected and interesting beginning in an atmosphere of incredible divinity. The process of the establishment of the institution and the divine force behind it can be clearly understood when we get glimpses of some extraordinary events that unfolded in the life of an ordinary man called Dada Lekhraj, who himself had the least idea of what was to follow later.

The Divine Visions
Dada Lekhraj had a very humble beginning as the son of a schoolmaster. Though born in a middle class family, he rose quickly in his profession by dint of hard effort, honesty combined with cleverness and focused intellect, to become one of the richest men in India. More

The Divine Descent of God

Once Dada was sitting in a satsang (spiritual gathering) which he had arranged in honor of his guru. In between he got up and went to his room, which he had never done in his life, for it was a sign of disrespect. More

Om Mandli - The Majestic Spiritual Gathering
Subsequent to these magnificent realizations, Dada started sharing the knowledge with his friends and relatives. When he revealed to them that they were souls, they melted in joy, experiencing God’s Love as it poured directly from Dada’s eyes. More
