How on earth can the BKs keep a straight face when they pump out PR about "respect and appreciation of our natural world and our global family"? What the BKs don't tell people is that their vision of "a world on this planet where all things are given freely" only applies to them ... everyone else is going to be nuked.
Dadi Janki is now being sold as a "living legend". I suppose that means her story is based on a myth ( ... and the record suggests she is probably not 96-year-old and they have faked much of her life story). She and Jayanti are off again spending donations on international air fares to get 4 star treatment from the Sultanate of Oman having manage to line up numerous companies sending their employees to their service programme.
What does strike me is how well the BKs fit in and go along with the kind of BS governments are prone to pump out. They know which side the bread is buttered on. But how has an Islamic government managed to get sucked in by them?

Oman Observer wrote:Earth Day to be celebrated on Sunday
Acknowledging the Government of Oman’s importance given to the protection of the environment, the Ministry of Environment and Climate Affairs in collaboration with Rajayoga Centre for Self Development is all set to celebrate the International Earth Day in the Sultanate, in partnership with Oman Scouts and Guides and UN Population Fund (UNFPA) GCC Area office.
The main public event “One Earth, One Family: Ignite the Spirit of Humanity” will be held at Hotel Muscat Holiday in Al Khuwair on Sunday at 7.30 pm, which will be formally inaugurated by H H Sayyid Hareb bin Thuwaini bin Shihab al Said, Assistant Secretary General of the Council of Ministers, in the presence of high level dignitaries representing various ministries, Government departments and private sector organisations.
The 96-year-old living legent, Dadi Janki, who is the Administrative Head of Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual University, will deliver the key note address and will discuss the importance of human values, such as responsibility, respect, and appreciation of “our natural world and our global family”.
Dadi Janki is visiting Oman on this special occasion, as Oman has been acknowledged as the most peaceful country in the Arab region and the country gives importance to the protection of environment. Dadi Janki is aware of the selfish tendencies that currently afflict human relationships and affairs and that put the world in peril.
A visionary with an unswerving optimism, she says those with a positive vision of the future give us an image of a world on this planet where all things are given freely, where the highest human potential is fully realized. “The actions we take today write the script for the circumstances we face tomorrow. If we understand this to be true, then we might see today’s world as the inevitable result of the choices we made in the past, and in that instant of understanding, we might see that the only way forward to a peaceful and loving world would be through our elevated awareness, understanding, awakening and loving behaviour towards our Earth and our human family”.
Oman’s rich natural resources are the main source of its livelihood through tourism and agriculture, apart from minerals and oil. At the same time, the country is also vulnerable to calamities and environmental catastrophes due to changing climate phenomena.
Oman has been very active in preparations to manage the hazards of climate change through various precautions as well as through national strategies designed to decrease the emissions of greenhouse gases and protect the natural beauty and livelihood of the Omani people.
A statement issued on the occasion of the visit of King Carl Gustaf of Sweden to the Sultanate underscored the attention accorded to environment conservation by His Majesty Sultan Qaboos and the King. The statement reads as follows; “His Majesty Sultan Qaboos and King Carl XVI of Sweden and Honorary Chairman of the World Scout Foundation, have called upon members of the International Scout Movement to enhance efforts to spread public awareness with a view to reinforcing positive conduct at an international level among youths of the world”. Boys and girls are urged to participate in activities like landscaping for the sake of sustainable development.
B K Jayanti, the European Director of BKWSU, an NGO Representative to the UN, will deliver a lecture on “Self Mastery: the Call of time” in the morning from 10.30 to 12 pm at the Omani Women’s Association in Shati al Qurum, which will be attended by people of all walks of life. Some of the companies in Oman have sponsored its employees to attend this seminar. For over 40 years, Jayanti has been an emissary of peace. She has travelled over 100 contris addressing international conferences, giving lectures and conducting seminars and classes.
