JVB London - Presentation Of Preksha Album In Leicester @ HereNow4U

On 1st March 2006, an International Conference For South Asian Music took place in Leicester. The conference was titled 'Faith In Music'. Renowned musicians from various South Asian faiths presented their spiritual music there. JVB London used the opportunity to present the Preksha Album to an international audience. Samanijis Pratibha & Punya Pragya went to Leicester together with Pushpa Banthia, chairperson of JVB London's Women's Wing and one of the donors for the production of the 'Preksha- Path Of Peace' album. The album was well received by the international audience, and so was the fact that Preksha Meditation can bring about a change of conduct versus non-violence and peace of mind. JVB London had worked hard for the noble sake and was happy for the positive international response.
