Hridaya Mohini, the global head of Brahmakumaris, passed away at 93 after a prolonged illness in Mumbai on Thursday.

She breathed her last at 10.30 am on Thursday at Mumbai’s Saifee Hospital. Her last rites will be performed on Saturday at 10 am at Shantivan Campus of Brahmakumaris headquarters, Abu Road, near Mount Abu in Rajasthan.

Founded in 1937, Brahmakumaris is the world’s largest spiritual organization run entirely by women.

Dadi Hridaya Mohini, affectionately known as Dadi Gulzar, has been associated with the organisation since its inception. She was 8 then. She has been credited with setting up more than 8000 Rajyoga centers in 140 countries around the world.

Dadi Hridaya Mohini has been awarded an honorary degree of Doctor of Literature by the North Odisha University in Baripada Mayurbhanj.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
