The Sadhu Vaswani Mission, founded by the great spiritual leader Sadhu T. L. Vaswani and later guided by Revered Dada J. P. Vaswani, has always carried forward the values of compassion, non-violence, and simple living.
Didi Krishna Kumari now leads the Mission globally, continuing the tradition of reaching out to communities in India and abroad with teachings that combine spirituality with practical living.

Didi Krishna Kumari is on a Gujarat tour from August 11 to September 1, 2025. She has already been to Surat, Vadodara, Rajkot, and Junagadh. Now she is in Ahmedabad for a series of events. She talked about how important it is for parents to spend time with their kids every day without fail. She said, “Do not give your kids comfort, give your time. Your kids need your time; give them your love and guidance instead of gadgets.
Her Gujarat tour is not just about spiritual talks but also about engaging with different communities, students, and educators to remind them of the values that matter most in life. Such journeys are often described as “seva yatras,” spiritual tours filled with service, dialogue, and inspiration.
Didi said, “Today, we are giving our kids all the tools and comforts they need to grow up.” But we are not giving them enough time. “We’re giving kids devices, but not the appropriate advice. Kids are like sponges; they watch and copy what their parents do.”
She pointed out that digital technologies, which were supposed to make life easier, have instead become sources of distraction and isolation. “Phones were supposed to save us time, but now they take up our time.” Parents spend a lot of time on their phones, even during family meals, and kids naturally follow them. “We must start with ourselves if we want our kids to change. Parents need to set a good example for their kids,” she stated.
Her message reflects what many educators and child experts also say today. Too much screen time has been linked to shorter attention spans, weaker social bonds, and even emotional struggles in children. By urging parents to reduce their own dependence on gadgets, Didi connects ancient wisdom with modern challenges.
Didi also talked about how important it is to teach kids values. She told parents and teachers to instil love, compassion, self-discipline, and spiritual awareness in young minds so they can deal with life’s problems. “We used to value character above all else. Wealth, position, and power are our new gods these days. But you can’t buy true happiness. You have to grow it from within by loving, living simply, and serving others,” she said.
For decades, the Mission has emphasised character-building in schools, blending regular academic lessons with teachings of compassion, honesty, and simplicity. Didi’s reminder is especially relevant today when many young people feel pressured by competition, material success, and social media influence.
Didi’s trip to Gujarat comes after the opening of “Rev. Dada Vaswani Way” and the “Truth & Love Garden” in Secaucus City, New Jersey. Prime Minister Narendra Modi also wrote to Didi to say how happy and proud he was with these changes. Such recognitions show how the Mission’s work has gained global respect, not just among spiritual seekers but also within civic and cultural circles around the world.
Didi has been having a lot of meetings and conversations while she is in Gujarat. She talked to school kids and teachers about the need for kindness, empathy, and moral responsibility. She answered, “Do everything with awareness,” when asked what one habit every student should have. “Be alert when you study, talk, and even use your phone. Awareness brings clarity, and clarity brings peace.”
Her emphasis on awareness is also in line with modern mindfulness practices, which have been shown to improve concentration, reduce stress, and build emotional strength. The Mission often organises meditation camps and “moments of silence,” teaching people to live more consciously.
Didi is going to meet with leaders of the Sindhi community and take part in educational events that promote the practice of universal love and the preservation of language and culture. On August 30, she will give a speech about the Sindhi language at the Sardar Patel Memorial. The next day, August 31, she will give a speech at Sindhu Bhavan, where she will talk about her travels through Gujarat and share Dada’s teachings. Her trip will end with a special session at Gandhinagar University on September 1, where she will talk to students and faculty on how spiritual ideals may help make the world a better place.
Her efforts for the Sindhi community highlight the Mission’s long-standing commitment to preserving cultural identity while promoting values that transcend boundaries. By addressing students and youth, she ensures that traditions of love and service are passed on to the next generation.
Didi’s visit also brings attention to two important global projects of the Sadhu Vaswani Mission. The first is World Meatless Day, which is celebrated every year on November 25 to honour Sadhu Vaswani’s birthday. So far, more than 25.80 crore individuals have promised not to eat meat or fish as part of the campaign.
World Meatless Day is one of the Mission’s biggest global initiatives. Started in 1986, it has grown into a campaign that inspires millions worldwide to choose compassion over cruelty, even if only for one day. In several cities, entire communities come together to support this cause, spreading awareness about animal welfare and the benefits of vegetarian living.
The second endeavour is “The Moment of Calm,” a worldwide peace movement that works to bring forgiveness, love, and inner peace to the disturbed hearts of people. It is held on August 2 at 2:00 pm, which is the moment Rev. Dada JP Vaswani was born. This moment calls for individuals to stop, let go, and find the peace inside them.
The Moment of Calm has touched people across continents. Every year, thousands pause for two minutes of silence to forgive, release negative emotions, and experience peace. This simple act of pausing collectively is believed to generate positive energy in homes, schools, and communities worldwide.
The Sadhu Vaswani Mission also works on a number of projects that have to do with education, health care, social services, rural development, disaster assistance, and promoting the Sindhi language. These initiatives show that spirituality is not only about personal growth but also about service to society. From schools that blend moral education with academics to hospitals and relief programs that serve the poor, the Mission continues to carry forward the legacy of service with love.
