[2] Followers of the Adhyatmik Ishwariya Vishwa Vidyalaya (AIVV) refer to themselves as the Prajapita Brahma Kumaris (PBKs) [3] or Advance Party.
[1][2] The AIVV sees itself and the Brahma Kumaris Organization as two halves of the same spiritual family who will eventually re-unite to transform this world from hell into heaven, [citation needed] although the BKWSU does not share the same belief.
The organisation is based in Kampil, Uttar Pradesh, India[1][4] Central to the PBKs' beliefs is that at the beginning of the movement, there was a different medium, Dada Lekhraj's business partner, who died in 1942, reincarnated as the AIVV's leader Virender Dev Dixit and has, since Lekhraj Kripalani's death, become once again the authoritative medium of God through whom he speaks clarifying the earlier teachings.
[2] Walliss identifies the Advance Party as radically re-interpreting the millenarianism of the BKSWU to regain its "true" original form.
According to a lawsuit lodged at Delhi's High Court, the leader of the group Virendra Dev Dixit had sexually assaulted multiple women and keeps residents confined in conditions "worse than farm animals".
