BIVA & Ajan Paul Narula — A Lifetime Dedicated to Humanity, Veganism and Global Peace
The story of BIVA is not just the journey of an organization — it is the reflection of one man’s lifelong commitment toward humanity, compassion, spiritual awareness, ethical living, and global unity.
Founded by Ajan Paul Narula, also known internationally as Paul Pornthep SriNarula, BIVA has grown into a respected global humanitarian and vegan movement that continues to inspire people across Thailand, India, and many parts of the world. What began as a mission of spreading kindness and conscious living gradually transformed into a platform connecting communities through peace, service, wellness, spirituality, and vegan awareness.
For more than three decades, Ajan Paul Narula has actively promoted veganism and holistic living through educational programs, motivational talks, humanitarian outreach, social campaigns, and public awareness initiatives across Southeast Asia. Recognized as a vegan activist, humanitarian leader, educator, and motivational speaker, he has continuously worked toward creating a compassionate society where respect for all living beings remains central to human progress.
Under his leadership, BIVA became known not only for promoting plant-based living, but also for encouraging values of peace, humanity, charity, ethical responsibility, and spiritual harmony. The organization has inspired thousands through community activities, awareness campaigns, wellness programs, humanitarian service projects, and international collaborations.
A major milestone in BIVA’s remarkable history came during its 23rd Anniversary Celebration on 05 October 2014, when H. E. Harsh V. Shringla, Ambassador of India to the Kingdom of Thailand, attended as the Chief Guest. His presence highlighted the growing international respect and diplomatic recognition that BIVA had earned through years of humanitarian and social contributions. H. E. Harsh Vardhan Shringla later went on to become Foreign Secretary of India and Chief Coordinator of India’s G20 Presidency, widely respected for strengthening India’s global diplomatic relations.
Over the years, Ajan Paul Narula’s message has remained simple yet powerful — humanity must evolve with compassion, conscious choices, and respect for every life. His efforts have helped position Bangkok as an important center for vegan awareness, humanitarian networking, and conscious lifestyle movements in Southeast Asia.
Continuing this global vision, on 02 May 2026, Dr. Akshay Shinde and the team of GVTO – Global Vision Trade Organization met Ajan Paul Narula in Bangkok, Thailand, for a special lunch meeting focused on spreading veganism, humanity, sustainability, and the philosophy that “Every Life Matters.”
Today, BIVA continues to stand as a symbol of humanitarian leadership, ethical living, and global unity — proving that one vision driven by compassion can influence generations worldwide.
