Environment - Sister Jayanti

With Christiana Figueres speaking on "Spirituality in Society" during London Climate Action Week, 2019

“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.”

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. She maintains that a spiritual life supports a move away from materialistic patterns of consumption.
