Words of Peace

Words of Peace Annual Report 2025

For over six decades, Prem Rawat has shared his message of personal peace with people around the world.

Thanks to the generosity of Words of Peace donors — particularly through the Global Event Fund — Prem Rawat’s speaking engagements throughout 2025 were once again made possible.

Below are some of the highlights your support helped achieve.

Highlights of 2025

Following a record-breaking number of speaking engagements in 2024, Prem Rawat committed to an even more ambitious international schedule in 2025. Across the year, 82 meetings, gatherings, interviews, trainings, and international events took place around the globe. Contributions from Words of Peace donors were there to help ensure the success of almost all of them, be it through event support, planning, logistics, or staffing.

With so many locations requesting visits, there was one simple solution: start earlier!
