About this Event
A morning of meditation, music and reflection with Daaji, Global Guide of Heartfulness, bringing together inner wellbeing, music and a deeper exploration of consciousness.
The victory of light over darkness is not limited to an external experience; it signifies a deeper, inner transformation.
It is not just a physical light or the light of the intellect, but an enlightenment of the heart — the glow of a lamp which, once lit, never goes out.
When we deepen our connection with the heart, we can strengthen the glow of that inner light, cultivating greater harmony and balance within ourselves and influencing the way we relate to our families, our communities and the world around us.
This festive season encourages us to reflect more deeply on our existence — on overcoming the forces that create fear, confusion, anger and self-doubt, and awakening the courage, compassion and clarity that help us live more fully.
When we choose this approach, we can collectively build a more harmonious and unified humanity.
This is an invitation to explore that journey together, through the experience of Heartfulness meditation.

✨ Daaji Returns to London
Heartfulness UK is delighted to welcome Daaji, Global Guide of Heartfulness, back to London.
Kamlesh D. Patel, affectionately known as Daaji, is the Global Guide of the Heartfulness movement and President of Shri Ram Chandra Mission. The fourth Guide in a century-old lineage, Daaji brings together his background in science and Ph*rm*cy with decades of experience in meditation and spirituality.
He guides people around the world in Heartfulness meditation and explores consciousness through a practical, contemporary approach that bridges science, spirituality and inner wellbeing.
Daaji is also deeply committed to environmental restoration. His vision led to the creation of Kanha Shanti Vanam, the 1,500-acre world headquarters of Heartfulness in Hyderabad, transformed from a barren landscape into a thriving green oasis.
In 2023, Daaji received the Padma Bhushan, India's third-highest civilian honour, for Distinguished Service of High Order in spirituality. In 2024, he was named the Commonwealth's Global Ambassador for Peacebuilding and Faith and received the Freedom of the City of London.
He is the author of several bestselling books, including The Heartfulness Way, Designing Destiny, The Wisdom Bridge, Spiritual Anatomy, The Power of Paradox and The Heartfulness Way 2.
