September 10-14, 2012 - Amaroo, Ipswich, Australia
As you probably know by now, there will be a five-day event with Prem Rawat at Amaroo (Ivory’s Rock Conference Centre – Ipswich, Australia) on September 10-14 for people who have learned the techniques of Knowledge. Amaroo will be open from September 8 – 16. This promises to be an extraordinary gathering — a chance for as many as 4,800 people to renew, refresh, and reconnect.
To help WOPG plan for the event, we’re asking you to let us know — by April 22nd — if you are interested in attending.
We realize that you don’t have all the details you need to commit at this time, but that’s OK. We’re not asking for your commitment now — just an indication of your interest in attending. You will have plenty of time to confirm your attendance later.
Towards that end, we’ll be sending you all the event information you need within the next month (i.e. costs, accommodation options, etc).
Prem Rawat, widely known as Maharaji, offers anyone who is sincerely interested a practical way to discover peace within, which he calls Knowledge. For more information, visit "Exploring the Keys."

WOPG (Words of Peace Global)
The Words of Peace Global Foundation (WOPG) presents a panorama of stories, news articles, interactions, and other materials, about Prem Rawat’s message. WOPG is composed largely of volunteers around the world who have experienced the peace and fulfillment of Prem Rawat’s message and want to help others do the same. We believe that every person should have the opportunity to answer life’s fundamental questions; we’ve seen that, when each one of us truly connects with our own humanity — with who we really are — we will connect with the humanity in others. Like millions of people around the globe, we want to see a world where everyone can experience peace beyond the absence of war. Not as an ideal, but as a reality. We believe that, in order to change the world, we first have to change ourselves. We want to see a better world and we believe it can happen — one human being at a time.
WOPG’s sole function is to make Prem Rawat’s message widely available through live events, online audio-visual materials, and written articles. WOPG also assist people to pursue it further, if they wish, via The Keys, and provide everyone with the access, materials, and assistance they may need. Like millions of people around the globe, we want to see a world where everyone can experience peace beyond the absence of war. Not as an ideal, but as a reality. We believe that, in order to change the world, we first have to change ourselves. We want to see a better world and we believe it can happen — one human being at a time. Growing from the initial efforts of a very small group of dedicated people in the early 1970s, there is now an expanding network of volunteers in 82 countries across Europe, the Americas, Asia, Africa, and the Pacific.
Words of Peace is an award winning television series featuring Maharaji’s Message of Peace. It is broadcast on satellite television throughout the South and North America, Europe, Australia, Asia and the Pacific— in 50 countries and 48 languages each week. WOPG hosts events with Prem Rawat ranging from small, intimate talks to international tours. They also host television programs on a wide range of channels across the world, and put out regular LiveStream broadcasts and webcasts of Prem Rawat’s talks. It reaches to over 25 million people in United States alone. It has won several awards in Australia, and the program is broadcast to neighboring countries New Zealand and Fiji as well. Australian television stations that reach almost four million viewers are regularly broadcasting the television series. WOPG video series also received 1st prize in ‘People's choice for Best Television series’ in Amsterdam.
The program is won acclaimed unanimously in all the countries. Many viewers leave appreciative messages on the program's website, and phone information line. One viewer said, "I'm so pleased that I've managed to see a couple of these shows. It's enlightened me and made me feel much more at peace with myself." Another commented, "It's a blessing to listen to a man of peace."
One viewer, who came across US television personality Burt Wolf interviewing Prem Rawat, posted: "Last night, I was flipping channels desperately trying to avoid 'Desperate Housewives' when I came upon the most incredible show I've ever seen on TV in my life."
The Brazilian Association of Community Television Channels has given its highest award to Words of Peace three times. Fernando Mauro Trezza, President of the Brazilian Association of Community Television Channels, presented the award to WOPG for its exceptional message. "While many programs are special," he said, "some are essential. WOPG, which presents Prem Rawat’s message, is one of these unique programs. This program is receiving this distinction because of its important contribution toward building a culture of peace in Brazil. The feeling of peace that Prem Rawat introduces people to is very important for everyone. It is essential to spread this feeling within to everyone in Brazil. This program is a great contribution toward the triumph of inner peace. Prem Rawat’s message has the potential to unite all Brazilians in inner contentment. I know that peace is really possible in Brazil."
In 2008, WOPG was incorporated as an international charitable foundation, registered in the Netherlands. It is funded entirely by donations from supporters and all its activities are free of charge. WOPG is also associated with the The Prem Rawat Foundation, which strives to address fundamental human needs: providing aid for people in urgent need of life-sustaining resources like food and water — especially in areas where larger foundations may not be present — and helping to make Prem Rawat's message available internationally.
