SUMMARY:Weekly Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Tonight’s meditation will be dedicated to the “International Day of Hope” celebrated on July 12. \n“Celebrate Hope-Day by turning optimism into meaningful action. Gather friends\, colleagues\, or students for a short “Circle of Hope” conversation to discuss local challenges and imagine solutions. Dedicate an hour to service—mentor a young person\, clean up a public space\, check in on an elderly neighbor\, or volunteer for a mental health helpline. Incorporate reflections on hope into lessons\, meetings\, or faith gatherings to spark ongoing dialogue. Every small gesture—whether a heartfelt conversation\, an act of kindness\, or a moment spent teaching—helps spread the spirit of hope that this day is meant to inspire in communities everywhere.”\n\nJoin our “circle of hope” tonight at 6pm.\nIn-person attendance:\n\n\n\n\n\nBrahma Kumaris Office at the UN\n866 UN Plaza\, Suite 436\nNY\, NY 10017\nRSVP mandatory: info@un.brahmakumaris.org\n\nOnline participation: https://bit.ly/weeklymed

SUMMARY:Unitive Cluster HLPF Side event
DESCRIPTION:The Power of Vision: Advancing integrated and Interconnected Development\nA transformative vision allows development efforts to move beyond short-term solutions toward meaningful\, long-term impact. At its core\, development is about people. Lasting progress depends on human transformation—shifts in consciousness\, values\, attitudes\, and behaviors that support shared well-being. Equally important is integrating the natural world into all development efforts\, ensuring flourishing is an embedded value rather than an afterthought. This approach is grounded in a unitive perspective\, recognizing the indivisibility of economic\, social\, and environmental goals. \nThis interactive hybrid session will explore the power of shared vision\, which ultimately fosters a sense of common destiny\, a strong basis for SDG 17 since it supports collaboration over competition as well as inclusive\, equitable development of cultures that leave no one behind. \nSpeakers:\nAlfredo Sfeir Younis\, Former Director of World Bank\, Environmental Economist \nYoussef Mahmoud\, Former UN Under Secretary General \nAudrey Kitagawa\, Founder\, International Academy for Multicultural Cooperation \nRegister: https://bit.ly/hlpfvision

SUMMARY:Weekly Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Tonight’s meditation will be dedicated to “International Friendship Day” celebrated on July 30. \n“This year\, as the world faces profound ruptures — between nations\, within societies\, even within families — the call to friendship is not sentimental. It’s essential. It’s about reaching across what breaks us and daring to believe in something better. It is a call to imagine a future where difference doesn’t mean distance\, where trust is stronger than fear. Through friendship\, we don’t just cope with the world as it is — we begin to shape the world as it could be.” – UN website. \n\n“Our relationships are never accidental. Every connection carries a story\, a lesson\, and a karmic imprint. Awareness can bring clarity\, healing\, and freedom.” – Brahma Kumaris.\n\nIn-person attendance:\n\n\n\n\n\nBrahma Kumaris Office at the UN\n866 UN Plaza\, Suite 436\nNY\, NY 10017\nRSVP mandatory: info@un.brahmakumaris.org\n\nOnline participation: https://bit.ly/weeklymed
