“Materialistic consumerism is a major cause of the environmental crisis we are facing today. Materialism and a conquest of matter have actually led to forgetting the inner being and have allowed matter to dominate my consciousness and my mind.”

Patel, Debra Boudreaux and Gavin Edwards, organised by WWF, COP26, Glasgow, 2021 “Climate and Nature: The role of faith based organisations in securing a nature positive world”: with Karenna Gore, Dan Perel, Gopal D.

Since 2009, Sister Jayanti has led The Brahma Kumaris delegation to the COP Climate Change Conferences. She has spoken internationally on the link between a change of consciousness and climate change, and how the power of thought influences everything that is happening in the world around us.
