In Remembrance of A Great Spiritualist -
Respected BK Jagdish bhai ji -
Our heartiest salutations to this noble soul,
who left his mortal coil on 12th May 2001
Born in the sacred city of Multan, famous for its Sufis and saints, on 10th September 1929, Bro. Jagdish Chander Hassija was a bachelor, a surrendered Brahma Kumar, totally dedicated to Godly services and he mostly resided in Delhi. Before dedicating his life for spiritual services, he had served as Principal in a Technical Training Institute in Sonipat, for a brief period. Greatly inspired by Prajapita Brahma, founder of the Brahma Kumaris organisation, he turned to spirituality and dedicated his life for this divine cause. He was a great litterateur and had the distinction of writing most of the literature of the Brahma Kumaris organization. He was also its Chief Spokesperson and Chief Editor of The World Renewal, Gyanamrit and Purity.
A simple and straightforward person, he took keen interest in divine service and worked very hard. He was a great visionary and contributed to a great extent a lot for taking the organization to its present status and international recognition. He was an affable person and took ample interest in developing the talents of B.K. brothers and sisters. His advice was that whatever endeavour we may make, but our life should appear a yogi life.
Bro. Jagdish Chander remained unwell for some time and left his mortal coil on 12th May, 2001 at Brahma Kumaris headquarters in Mount Abu. Thousands of BKs from all over the world gathered to pay their tributes to the departed soul.
