Prem Rawat, known also by the honorary title Maharaji, speaks to people around the world about the possibility of knowing inner peace and contentment. His message is simple and profound. Speaking at the United Nations Conference Center in Bangkok, Thailand, he expressed, “Peace needs to be in everyone’s life. Of all the things we have tried in this world, there is one thing we have never given a chance. That one thing is peace. If we want to hope for something, maybe we could hope in our heart that peace will come in our life. The peace that we are looking for is within. It is in the heart, waiting to be felt, and I can help you get in touch with it. It is not the world that needs peace; it is people. When people in the world are at peace within, the world will be at peace.”

For those who wish to make inner peace a reality in their life, he offers a practical way, which he calls Knowledge. “What I offer people is not just talk,” he says, “but a way to go inside and savor the peace that is within.” More than 500,000 people have received the techniques of Knowledge through his work.

Born in India, Prem Rawat started speaking to audiences at the age of three and gave his first published address when he was only four. At the age of eight, he started presenting his message of peace throughout the Indian subcontinent. At thirteen, he was invited to speak in London and Los Angeles. Since then, he has presented his message to more than 6.5 million people in over 250 cities and 50 countries around the world.

The dissemination of his message, which is made available in more than 88 countries and 60 languages, is entirely supported by voluntary contributions and the sale of related materials. He supports himself and his family through independent means.
