Promising to be informative and motivating, the event is expected to draw over 3000 participants from the UK and Europe, including renowned dignitaries. Recognised worldwide for his contributions, Her Excellency Patricia Scotland, KC, Commonwealth Secretary General, has appointed Daaji, a recipient of the prestigious Padma Bhushan award in India, as the Global Ambassador for Peacebuilding and Faith to the Commonwealth.

During his visit, the City of London will present Daaji with the prestigious Freedom of the City Award in recognition of his lifetime commitment to humanity and significant efforts in education, wellness, and environmental projects through Heartfulness.

Expressing his gratitude, Daaji stated: 

“I am delighted to reconnect with the United Kingdom and accept the Freedom of the City Award. This recognition is an honor. Now more than ever, unity and harmony are important. Meditation serves as an important means to bring the world together.”

Founded in India in 1945, Heartfulness provides easily understood and useful methods for rejuvenation, meditation, and relaxation to support inner calm and self-improvement in the hectic world of today. Over 10 million practitioners spread over 160 countries, backed by 16,000 trainers, Heartfulness is still having a good influence on people all around the world.

Daaji’s teachings come from his own Heartfulness path experience, his deep interest in meditation, and his unflinching admiration for many spiritual traditions and scientific discoveries. Among his many accomplishments is the creation of Kanha Shanti Vanam, the vast international centre of Heartfulness, which has the biggest meditation hall in the world, holding more than 200,000 people.

Daaji will meet with distinguished local leaders during his visit, including signing a unique Memorandum of Understanding with the Commonwealth Secretariat, giving a speech at the 22nd Commonwealth Education Ministers Conference at Marlborough House, speaking with Members of Parliament at the House of Lords, and meeting with BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha practitioners at the Neasden Temple in London.

Daaji will also have the opportunity to establish a mutual cooperation in the delivery of humanitarian projects with the founders of The Unity of Faiths Foundation (TUFF), a British non-governmental organisation operating on four continents worldwide. Through their many initiatives that have included sports, music, and creativity, the charity has been crucial in advancing peace and kindness around the globe.
