All auctioned properties were gifted to the Foundation by Prem Rawat, also known as Maharaji, who made a financial donation as well and personally attended the event.
Shortly after the auction, Prem Rawat held a highly successful three-day event in Los Angeles, attended by more than 5,000 people who had traveled from 54 countries to hear his message of peace.
TPRF has raised more than $150,000 for victims of the tsunami and is using these donations to distribute daily food aid to tsunami survivors in Sri Lanka. TPRF regularly holds free medical clinics in northern India and recently sent batteryless flashlights to hurricane victims in Grenada. TPRF has made substantial donations of rice to refugees in war-torn Ivory Coast and recently gave a grant to Healing the Children, a nonprofit organization arranging for free surgery for children most in need.
Prem Rawat's message is simple and profound. Speaking at the United Nations Conference Centre in Bangkok, Thailand, he expressed: "Peace needs to be in everyone's life. The peace we are looking for is within. It is in the heart, waiting to be felt, and I can help you get in touch with it. It is not the world that needs peace; it is people. When people in the world are at peace within, the world will be at peace."
Prem Rawat has presented his message to millions of people in over 250 cities and 50 countries around the world. The dissemination of his message is entirely supported by voluntary contributions and the sale of related materials. He supports himself and his family through independent means.
The Prem Rawat Foundation is a 501(c)(3) public charity that promotes the message of peace of Prem Rawat and helps improve the quality of life for people most in need.
