Brahma Kumaris South Africa is part of this worldwide spiritual movement, which is dedicated to personal transformation and world renewal by helping individuals transform their perspective of the world from material to spiritual. We teach a specific form of meditation that is called Raja Yoga Meditation. Raja Yoga meditation facilitates the inward journey to promote inner peace and spiritual growth. It will help you re-discover and use positive qualities already latent within you. You will discover an inner peace and inner power that makes it possible for you to respond to life from a place of clarity and self-control, rather than from a place of reactivity. It is a call to consciousness that will enable you to change anything about yourself that you would like to change. And when we change, the the world changes. The Raja Yoga meditation course consists of 7 lessons, each offering some conceptual input and practical exercises of meditation facilitated by an experienced teacher.

The Deaf Federation of South Africa (DeafSA) acts as the national research, information and community action organisation on behalf of ± 600 000 South Africans that are culturally and linguistically Deaf. DeafSA, formerly known as the South African National Council for the Deaf (SANCD), was founded in 1929. And in 1995 the former SANCD was transformed to a new democratically elected organisation, namely, Deaf Federation of South Africa (DeafSA) . This resulted in a paradigm shift from an organisation for the Deaf to one of the Deaf. The changes in the constitution and attitudes also meant that decisions about the services and affairs of Deaf people were no longer taken by hearing people on behalf of Deaf people - but by the Deaf people. At present 100% of the National Executive Committee (NEC) of DeafSA are Deaf.
