BK Karuna Bhai

BK Karuna Bhai worked as Supervisor at Hindustan Machine Tools, Bangalore till 1967, after
which he ran his own business until 1971. He came into contact with the Brahma Kumaris
in 1960 and decided to dedicate his life to their teachings and services the same year. He
pioneered the expansion of spiritual services of the Brahma Kumaris in all parts of South
India: Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Andhra Pradesh.
His love for writing proved to be a valuable asset in spreading spiritual knowledge: As
early as 1960, he began writing articles for the local newspaper and later on started his
own printing press, ‘Sachi Gita Printers’. Published several spiritual books in Kannada and
a fortnightly magazine called ‘Gyan Vigyan’.
A linguist in 13 languages, he was invited in 1971 to stay at the Brahma Kumaris
Headquarters in Rajasthan as Public Relations Officer to assist in administration and
service projects. Simultaneously, he held positions as Special Correspondent for the
Rajasthan Patrika (1975) and United News of India (UNI) from 1976– 1996.
He has been able to introduce a vast range of technical equipment and the latest
technology not only at the various campuses at the headquarters, but in many of its
branches around India and overseas too.
His practice of Rajyoga Meditation and inculcation of spiritual values and lifestyle since
70 plus years have made him an effective spiritual teacher and guide to many
individuals from different professional backgrounds. Despite being connected with the
most rapidly changing and progressive areas of life (Media & Technology), his complete
focus on spiritual goals helps him to maintain a balanced mind, creative and visionary
intellect, and successful relations.
An eloquent speaker, he has given hundreds of lectures on values and spirituality at
conferences, retreats, and training programmes conducted yearly by the Brahma
Kumaris at their Headquarters. His life is the epitome of dedication, selflessness and
commitment towards self and world transformation. His knowledge of balancing
Science and Spirituality, and unshakeable faith in the Supreme Being, continues to take
him to newer realms of wisdom and experience.
