Meditation Teaches You To Think Positively !

When God walks into your life, it is like a laser beam passing across your being. The light restores beauty and value, even if what is visible at first glance is less than beautiful. Meditation is an invitation to light. Meditation is not complicated. It simply is a means of teaching your mind to think in a different way.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Blessings Are A Boon !

Blessings are not valued until they are gone.' So much is overlooked and so much of our actions are automatic that it is as if nothing special ever happens. Nothing stays the same. The situations we find ourselves in today can change in the twinkling of an eye and the freedom and amenities we took for granted can disappear. We need to stop and count our blessings and see how fortunate we really are.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Possess A Smiling Face !

We all know and remember a smiling person - someone whose heart seems to radiate through their teeth. And when they do, notice how it's almost impossible not to smile back...unless you are feeling very, very grumpy! So if you don't feel a smile coming on - why not do it anyway. Not only does it transform your inner chemical production and create 'happy hormones', but when people are on the end of your smile, they smile back (well most do). And if you really don't genuinely feel like smiling at life, the universe and everybody - fake it until you make it!

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Highly Important Quote !

Each one of us is a walking radiator. Mostly we radiate thoughts and attitudes. From deep within we radiate our state of being, and the essential, original and eternal state of every being is peaceful and loving. But we block and distort this energy with our attachments. Attachments turn love into fear, peace into anger and then distort our attitudes and actions towards others. This is neither relaxing for ourselves, or for those around us. Which is why detachment is the secret to living lightly and lovingly. To be a radiator that people come to for real warmth, what do you need to detach from today? If you don't detach then you will stay attached, and then you will see others and life itself as a threat, and your tension will keep them away. But they cannot threaten you. Only your dependency on a thing, or an idea, or an opinion can be threatened. Come on...what needs to be released today? What needs to be released so the light can come through?

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Magical Positive Thoughts !

Life experiences are like sentences - we are always looking for the full stop, the conclusion. It's OK to end a train of thought, but not thought itself. Thoughts are the beginning of our creation and are here to be creative. Thoughts are like the magic carpet on which the soul rides across eternity - in reality, there are no endings, noconclusions. Rest for the spirit (which is what we are) is when we allow only the current of the purest thoughts to flow through our mind - thoughts which carry good wishes and blessings for ourselves and others. This is not so much going with the flow, as being in the flow, and being refreshed by the flow. It is how we refresh ourselves. For when we have powerful, positive thoughts for and about others, who experiences them first?

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Become A Source Of Inspiration To Others !

The best service is to keep shining with inner specialities. Everyone wants to become a source of support and help to others. Attempts are made to do something, which will help others. But the real service that one can do is to discover the inner qualities that are present and use them in simple activities. These specialities add quality to the task, and become a source of benefit and joy for those around. When we are able to add quality to what we do, we automatically become a source of inspiration for those around us. Then we don't have to do a lot of things to be helpful to others, but our very life will become useful for those around us, and many more. We will have the joy of doing even simple things in a beautiful way.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Use Your Specialities To Improve Your Actions !

A single speciality can add beauty to every word and every act. Each and everyone have a unique speciality that is reflected in the actions from time to time. But the one who is aware of these specialities in a conscious way, is able to add quality and beauty to everything that is spoken or done. Nothing is waste or even ordinary but everythingbecomes special. As we have the constant aim of using our speciality in everything that we do, we are able to experience success both in what we do and also in all our relationships. We are able to make everything more meaningful and powerful. We are not caught up with the ordinariness or the negativity of the situation, but are able to enjoy the moment by colouring it with our own special quality.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Focus Attention On Self By Practicing Honesty !

To live with honesty is to learn constantly. The one who is honest practices the truth in daily life. Honesty enables to focus attention on the self instead of looking wastefully at others or their weaknesses. It enables to bring knowledge into practice. It enablesone to be free from excuses. Thus there is constant learning and constant change for the one who is honest. Where there is honesty we are free from feelings of laziness, fear or dependence. When we are honest there is a deep desire within us to change and we make ourselves available for every little thing that will enable us to bring about a change. We are willing to change constantly, progressing and improving with each and every situation.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Help Others With A Great Soul !

Great souls take advantage of every moment and every opportunity to give happiness to others through kindness in their thoughts; such souls are willing to overlook weaknesses and mistakes and have the desire to help everyone reach their potential.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Have Self Respect And Take Responsibility For Your Actions !

The key to responsibility is self-respect. When anything goes wrong, an individual is not willing to take the responsibility for his own choice. Instead it becomes very convenient for him to blame others for the mistake. Lack of self-respect abstains one to take the responsibility for the choice that he has made. So his words and actions reflect excuses and justifications. When we have self-respect and are able to maintain our inner positive consciousness, we are able to continue having this consciousness wherever we are, and are able to feel the ease of accepting the consequences of our actions. We are able to learn from everything that happens in our life, having taken the responsibility of our actions.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Humility Is A Great Virtue !

Free yourself from forcing, expecting or wanting someone to receive what you think they should take - it could be your idea, opinion, or an opportunity you think they should accept - you can't make anyone take anything - your own experience probably confirms this. Offer humbly. Offer gently. Offer as if you are a master, and then let go, and retire like a shy child. When you can dance the dance between being master and child, you'll be surprised how much more others will accept what you have to say, and how much more they appreciate your offerings.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Spread Love And Experience The Sweetness Of Relationships !

To have love is to fill words with sweetness. It is difficult, if not impossible, just to try and make the words sweet. Even with the greatest attention only an attempt could be made at a superficial level to make words really sweet. Real sweetness comes when there is love in the heart. This love enables one to be sweet in allinteractions. When we have love in our heart for others as well as for ourselves our feelings are always filled with good wishes. We will experience the inner sweetness, which then spreads around to others too. When we have good wishes we will be sweet in all our words. Thus we experience the sweetness of relationships.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Use Your Treasures For The Benefit Of All !!!

The one who brings benefit to each and everyone is a true benefactor. Each one has immense treasures that can be contributed to those around, but the one who is a benefactor surely finds reasons and excuses to use these treasures constantly for the benefit of all. True benefit lies in giving some or the other positive input to each and everyone who happens to come one's way. When we have the constant desire to bring benefit to everyone around us, we are naturally free from all kind of expectations. We don't expect others to change according to our needs and desires, but are able to bring about achange in ourselves according to the requirements of time. So we experience constant improvement.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

An Intelligent Thought !

Many believe it is ignorant to trust the innate goodness of human beings, because you will be taken for a ride. But won't this mistrust gradually affect my own character and perception of life? Is it worth being insecure at every step just because others are dishonest? It is only when I have unreasonable expectations of others that I get disappointed with their inability to reciprocate my love and trust. God loves me irrespective of whether I am worthy of His love. His faith in me is so pure and powerful that it transforms me. Let me give as God gives; let me trust as God trusts.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Focus Your Attention On Power And Divinity !

There are times when my mind faces inertia: it can either be that the fast speed of thoughts is tough to control, or there is a lack of enthusiasm to think new and differently. An efficient driver has good control over both the accelerator and brake. Similarly, my day runs smoothly when I can operate the mind and intellect to maneuver the flow of thoughts and generate productive thoughts as I wish. The best way to enhance my mind is to take few minutes out at regular intervals to clean out unnecessary and waste thoughts, and focus my attention on the Supreme Ocean of Power and Divinity.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Use Your Mind Positively !

Imagine owning the finest instrument in the world and not knowing how to maintain or operate it at its optimum? This is the irony we face with nature's most valuable gift: the mind. It is a fertile piece of land, which does not discriminate between good and bad seeds, or thoughts. Whatever I the soul sow (or think), the field of my mind will automatically nurture and reap fruit accordingly. Just as choosing a career is not taken lightly, when I value my thoughts and 'think' before I think I can save myself a lot of energy and time.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Connect Yourself With The Spiritual World !

Many of us don't like to be 'superstitious' but in some way or the other we all tend to believe in the influence of objects, omens, places or destiny... An intellectual mind usually discards such notions saying nothing external can really influence the human spirit. However, spirituality shows us a balanced approach: although nature and physical objects/places are inanimate, the thoughts and feelings experienced by human souls permeate the environment and remain. Since the relationship between soul and body is intimate and powerful, anything the body experiences (be it intake of food or contact with physical world) will affect the soul. If the environment I live in is physically and spiritually pure, it is easier for me to increase my soul power.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Shine With Your Inner Beauty !

Can I detach from the various personalities I play during the day (daughter, parent, boss, employee, student) and talk to myself one-on-one? Is it good enough to fulfill my daily responsibilities or do I value my spiritual self too? Sometimes I may avoid thinking about the inner self because it's a little scary to face my weaknesses and come to terms with not-so-good past actions. However, it's a fact that whatever is real and true lives on despite the amount of alloy mixed in or accumulated layers of dust. Would the world be just as beautiful if we had left all the impure gold or raw diamonds buried away? I must learn to value myself, an eternal spirit of divinity, and do all I can to make it glow...


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Share Your Goodness With All !

Regardless of the existing splendor of the artificial modern world, we are genuinely impressed by anything that is natural, such as beauty of nature and its living creatures, wonders of the human body, amazing creative abilities of the human intellect etc. We tend to unknowingly connect or harmonize with people or things that mirror our qualities of peace, balance, stability or the values we aspire for. However, a piece of artistic beauty, place of entertainment or worship etc gives memorable but short-lived experiences. As my Supreme Parent and Companion, God alone can empower me with the will to actually live by these cherished values. When I give more time to contemplate on His greatness and purity, I develop the courage to unveil and share my own goodness with all.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Focus Your Energies On Your Goal !

While moving towards my destination, I tend to get distracted with even the little things that happen. Even a small negative or positive incident is enough to distract my thoughts from my destination. I am sometimes so busy with such things that my vision moves away from my destination and I stop moving forward. I need to first clarify my goal. Once I have done this, I need to take care that my vision is focused on it. Even when situations come by, trying to distract me I need to remind myself that these are only side-scenes which are not important for me. It is more important to keep my energies focused towards the goal.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Overcome Difficult Situations With Patience !

When difficult situations come our way, we tend to create a lot of waste questions in our mind. These waste questions only fill our mind with negativity draining us out of our energy. At that time, it seems natural to have such thoughts and we are caught up only with such thoughts, leaving no space for constructive thoughts. When difficult situations come our way, we need not be caught up with why it happened but we need to make effort to fly. We need to find a way to empower ourselves that we become stronger than the situation, so that we are able to fly above it. Then the situation would appear tiny and we would be able to overcome it in a second.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Use Your Specialities With Great Joy !

When a situation is good we are able to use our own specialties, but when the situation is not so good, we tend to come back to ordinary or waste. So we are constantly waiting for opportunities to reveal our own specialty and at other times being colored by the negativity or ordinariness of the situation. When we are aware of our own specialties in a conscious way, we are able to add quality and beauty to everything that we speak or do. Nothing of ours is then waste or even ordinary but everything we do becomes special. We are able to make everything more meaningful and powerful. We are not caught up with the ordinariness or the negativity of the situation, but are able to enjoy the moment by coloring it with our own special quality.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Meaningful Inspirational Quote !

We normally have a lot of desires and expectations from life itself. We want something or the other and when we don't get them we tend to have negative feelings. Sometimes these feelings turn to feelings of inferiority too. So even good things are hidden from our vision. When we recognise our own talents and gifts that life has bestowed on us, we are able to recognise what we deserve rather than what we desire. We are able to use our resources to attain what we desire. We then do not feel what we lack but are more connected with what we have and how we have to use what we have.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Intelligent Positive thoughts !

We are well aware of the physical resources that we have and make use of them too. But we become a little careless about the resource of time. We normally believe that to use time well means to plan the day well and work according to the plan, and we somehow manage to do that to a great extent. Yet there is a large amount of time going waste too. To use the resource of time well is to be aware of where we are investing it. When we are investing time in creating only positive thoughts, sweet or beneficial words and useful actions, we are able to find a lot of time being saved. And we are sure to get the best out of this investment too. We find ourselves getting good returns out of everything that we do.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Important Values In Life !

Every human life has meaning because of the value that he is able to add to everything that he does and every relationship of his. Values are the natural power of good within each one of us. Values form the basis of our relationships and growth. We enrich our own lives and the lives of those around us when values come into play. Focusing on these positive qualities/values helps us to transform old attitudes, to gain fresh perspectives and find unexpected answers. They free our path from obstacles and make clear life's opportunities.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Admire God’s Lovely Creation !

The vast, abundant nature has an amazing ability to refresh our minds and hearts, doesn't it? Quite often it reminds us to marvel at God and His creation. But aren't we human beings God's greatest creation? If the inanimate, idyllic nature is powerful enough to touch our souls and make us lighter and more content, what can I not do? When others look at me, are they reminded of God's beauty and qualities? Let my personality be balanced and serene so that my presence comforts souls and elevates their consciousness.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

True Freedom And Self Respect Is Necessary For Admirable Life And Future

Occasionally we forget how fortunate we are to have the freedom of choice: liberty to express our desires, choose our friends, clothes, religion, music, food, careers, partners..., while a significant part of our world is oblivious to the same. But are the rest of us really living a life of independence? Or does my mind suffocate at times with unproductive thinking? Can I select golden thoughts of positivity, inspiration, determination, love etc as I wish? True freedom and self-respect cannot be bestowed externally by God, fate or any human being. It begins with me liberating myself from unworthy thinking, thus empowering my words, actions and character for an admirable life and future.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Open Your Minds To A New Start !

A disappointment is never easy to surpass. I work hard towards a goal giving it all I have and still end up empty-handed. 'Where did I go wrong, what's the use of being diligent and conscientious? May be everything depends on luck, God didn't help me...' A vision that was initially strong and focused takes a sharp detour into the by-lanes of disheartened thinking. On the other hand, by looking at the situation with a calm, detached attitude, I can locate the faults or leakages. Even if my attempts were faultless, to refuse to learn from a set-back is a sign of ego. God helps me back on my feet when He sees that I haven't closed the doors of my mind to new experiences.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Intelligent Positive Thinking !

When my expectations for a task or another person are unfulfilled, I sometimes attribute it to my weaknesses or unworthiness. I may accept the disappointment and even forget the incident but sub-consciously allow it to hamper my self-respect. Ambitions or relationships are not appendages of my identity. They are vital in shaping my personality and taking me ahead, however I need to be prudent in not permitting them to distort how I see myself. Only my God knows me precisely for what I am and what I will be. With this faith and confidence, let me see every experience as a brick thrown towards me to build a strong foundation for my future.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Be Successful, Make a Difference with a Clear Mind !!!

* * * * * * * * M E R R Y C H R I S T M A S * * * * * * *

Accepting life as it is a multi-faceted concept. While it's good to accept circumstances and people as they are, it would be unwise to act out of blind faith or dejection: Either we say things will happen if God or destiny wills it, or that things are never going to improve so why bother.... Both perceptions spread a negative vibration. Acceptance means I don't confront a situation or person simply because things aren't to my liking, as this drains me of energy I could use to reform the problem. With a clear mind, heart open to the unexpected, and willingness to make a difference, I link myself to God and take His energy to be successful in my goals.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu.

Positive Enchanting Quote !

It's a wonder how God manages to be so enchanting since none of His uniqueness can be attributed to the parameters human beings normally associate with an attractive personality such as etiquette, education, fashion sense, social contacts etc. Though God's purity, wisdom, power, love... are intangible, when I am soul-consciousness I get exposed to God's unparalleled magnetism. The more I stay in this spiritual magnetic field, my mind and heart experience a slow but permanent change by appreciating myself and others for more than physical qualifications.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Power Of Silence !

Sometimes you are trying to remember something, its within your reach, on the tip of your tongue, but it is just isn't coming out. Everyone around is suggesting something or trying to help, but in reality not helping at all. You wish for a moment of silence, so that you can dive into your memory bank, for you know that is the only way you will be able to remember. This is the power of silence in action. Many, not recognizing its power, do not value it. They turn their heads away from the thought of a few moments of silence. They feel it a punishment.

When we find our thoughts moving in many directions because of external demands on our attention, we need to stop, take a rain check on everything and experience silence. This power of silence is essential when we want to plan for the future, we should silence unnecessary thoughts and think of a point in question. So when you get an opportunity of a moment's silence, don't waste that precious moment. Use it to store the strength within that is so necessary for dealing with the world without.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Discipline Your Mind For Positive Effect !

Am I comfortable with silence? Or does the mind get fidgety when I am physically silent and bring up questions and uncertainties related to my life and relationships? Silence to some is boring and unproductive but that depends on my thoughts. I have two magical tools in hand: the mind and intellect. When I teach both to work in synchrony, I create for myself unforgettable experiences of empowerment, love, wisdom, compassion, forgiveness, far-sightedness... In silence, I can detach from my body, task and relationships and see which next step would be beneficial for myself and others. The more I discipline the mind with love, it will become my closest friend.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Spread Love For Others !

Live in such a way that love informs every action! When we have learned to live like this, nothing will disturb us. Our contentment and good feelings towards others remain constant. We become free. The power to live like this comes from inside, not from outside. That is why we stay free, with no expectations from others, no frustrations. To live like this requires us the let go off certain beliefs and habits that drain us from this strength and interfere with our ability to love. Some times they become so deep-seated in us, that we are not aware of its presence.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Great Interesting Thoughts !

You live in a body and that has to be known, not physiologically, as a machine, but spiritually, as a temple. When you know it physiologically, you cure it with chemicals; when you know it spiritually you cure it with thought. And when its health is based on thought, it becomes a thought, it becomes a source of health to others - a refuge. When its health is based on medicine, it becomes an attraction to others and so a trap.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

A Thought Provoking Quote !

Who are you that lives in the body? You are a thinker, and what you think creates the atmosphere in the 'temple', and the atmosphere determines how much love there is in your life. A poor thinker in a smart machine attracts friendship with a motive; a rich thinker in a temple attracts love. And the love that you attract today is the foundation of your future, so though it is earned slowly, its depth is worth it.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Attractive Positive Statements !

When your thoughts are unusual and far-reaching, your body becomes the same. Arms move easily, the body ceases to be a machine which needs fixed things - it becomes alive as you are, for deep thought penetrates and changes even matter. To the point where consciously, you can invest virtue in your limbs and the work that they do, up to now a chore, will reach out and touch people. This is good administration, for then your heart isn't just pumping oxygen to the organs, it is drawing people together; your brain is not just sending messages to the limbs, but to other people.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Be Stronger From Within !

In life we get attracted and become attached to a particular object, person, relationship or situation. Attachment seems to be the normal state of our living experience. We seek it without a second thought. Is attachment a desirable state? When a person develops a strong attachment, he is likely to become sorrowful when the attachment is broken or diminished. His emotional and mental state suffers. The broken hearted, the vindictive behavior, the hatred, the jealousy and sometimes suicides are the result of broken attachments. It is a risky business to make the happiness of others our total happiness; to experience the difficulties of others as our difficulties. We should not build our life to such an extent around someone else's life or any object so that when anything goes wrong we cannot function or we fall apart. It is healthier, stronger and much more in wisdom to love everything and everybody, play our roles and perform our duties to the maximum with everybody and still remain detached. We will be able to provide more help to others when we ourselves are strong from within.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Mental Strength Is Important For Stability In Life !

Observe how easily the day would pass if you were able to move freely without being affected by the negative attitude of others. Imagine how much you can accomplish if you were able to remain constantly in a calm and peaceful state rather than fluctuating up one minute then down the next. Every time you lose happiness and go down, just see how much energy is needed to take yourself up again. If you learn to remain constant, not only is energy saved but you will find that your mental strength increases and of course with mental strength and stability come the development and maturity of character. Strength of character depends upon my ability to remain unaffected by adverse circumstances.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Intelligent Positive Words !

Many times I find that my words, actions or behavior tend to upset others inspite of my not wanting to hurt them. I seem to be very happy with the situation, but others don't seem to be. At that time I am not really able to understand the reason for this and I consider the others to be unreasonable. I need to check myself when others are getting upset with me. I need to make effort to check and change myself constantly so that I am able to move along with the demands of time. This is what will bring about true contentment - such contentment that neither will I be upset nor will I upset others.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Bring About Real Change By Learning From Your Mistakes !

From all that happens, there is usually a lot of learning from which we can take important lessons. But sometimes we find ourselves making the same mistakes again and again. So although we have understood we are not able to bring about real change. Once we realize and learn from a mistake that has happened, we need to spend some time in understanding it even further. We need to ensure we don't ever repeat the same mistake. This will enable us to bring about real change.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Work Enthusiastically To Achieve More !

It is usually believed that when we are content we finish the desire to achieve and so we find no improvement in our lives. On the contrary, we also find that where there is no contentment the mind is disturbed and we are not able to give our best to whatever we do. Whatever happens we need to retain the happiness within ourselves. This comes only when we are content with whatever is happening in our lives. When we create such an internal environment, we will be able to have the enthusiasm to achieve more and more.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Effective Positive Thoughts !

The soul needs strength to deal affectively with day to day situations, as demanding as they are, and yet be able to pack up useless thoughts; to be able to take time out for itself, to store the power of peace from the Ocean of Peace. If the soul does not recharge itself it will lose the courage and enthusiasm. We need the strength to continue the fight for right, even though the forces of wrong grow strong.



~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Team Work Is Essential For Bigger Success !

When given a responsibility I usually think of doing it alone. I usually feel it is much easier not to involve many. I normally do this in order to avoid the different kinds of personalities that I have to deal with. This attitude deprives me of others' support and cooperation. When involved in a big task, I need to see to it that I involve many. When I involve many and make sure I make use of their specialties, even the most difficult task will be made easy. Secondly, the good wishes of all involved will be for the task, which will add to its success.



~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Keep A Check On Yourself And Control Every Situation !

When things go wrong, the first thought is to control the situations or the people involved. But since neither the situations nor the people are in our hands, there is no success in controlling them. This only further increases the negativity. Instead of trying to control something that I have no control upon, I need to start with myself. The more I am able to keep a control on myself with constant attention, checking and changing, the more I will be able to have everything in control.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Be Courageous And Solve Your Problems !

Many times when involved in something difficult, we begin to look for help from people even before we have started. Prayer is also one method which we rely on and wish for things to work our way. But not always do we find the help coming that is required. So we tend to get disheartened and maybe even give up trying altogether. The simple way to receive help is to first have courage. When I first take a step of courage using the force of all my resources, I automatically find others taking help from that too. For having moved one step ahead, I get the help from the resources available, from the people around, God himself & me. I thus recognize and make use of all the help that is coming my way. So I never need to beg for help, but find help coming my way automatically.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Be Calm And Experience Peacefulness !

Whenever we become peaceless, we generally tend to blame others for it. We think it is the other person or the situation that has made us lose our cool. So although we don't like to be in this state of mind, we don't make real honest effort to change it. And most of the time we don't even know how to do it, as we are not even aware of where the real problem lies. We then make those around us more peaceless instead of giving them peace, which they actually require. We need to first know the cause of the peaceless situation. For this we need to check ourselves with honesty. We need to understand clearly that there is some conflict within ourselves that is creating this situation. Then even if someone tries to create confusion, we will be able to remain calm and peaceful. Since we are in our calm state of mind, we will be able to give an experience of peace to others too.




~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Simplicity Means Purity !!!

Simplicity is usually considered as being plain and with no decoration. So when we think of simplicity we are not so attracted towards it. We tend to make a lot of effort to colour ourselves with a lot of other things from the outside which then become part of our personality. But in this process we tend to lose touch with our innate purity and innocence. So we are not able to express this beauty. Simplicity means complete purity. It is to be egoless and also to be free from every kind of negativity. So when we come back to our original purity and simplicity we are able to express our innate beauty and strength. Since we are natural, whatever we are doing, wherever we are, we will be able to express this natural nature.



~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Meaning Of Freedom !

The meaning of Freedom in having no burden - no burden of body or mind. Freedom is having such a clear vision of reality and such a powerful image of the self that the superficial bondages cannot contain you. Freedom is the knowledge that comes from knowing what your role is and playing it accurately. Freedom is freedom from fear and anxiety. Living from a position of freedom gives us the opportunity to make choices beyond the ordinary because then we are living beyond all bondages - even the bondage of actions.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Inspiring Positive Sentences !

When we hear something new and worthwhile from someone, we naturally get the feeling to bring that into our practical life. But it is then soon forgotten and doesn't become part of our life. It remains theory in our mind, and after sometime we are not inspired by it anymore. We either don't have courage or are discouraged with our past experiences. We can bring something we know into practice, only when we are able to experience it at some point. For this we need to make a plan to actually find a space for what we know to come into practice. When we start even mechanically, that particular point brings experience in our lives. Then we naturally further experiment with it.



~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Possess Positivity To Put Out The Fire Of Anger !

We do maintain positivity to the one who is positive to us, but it tends to get difficult to be positive to someone who is negative towards us. It normally seems so easy to react negatively. But this only further worsens the situation as neither is willing to bring about a change. The only way we can still be positive when someone is behaving negatively towards us is by reminding ourselves of our own inner power. When we are connected to what we have, we are able to be a giver without expecting anything. The cool water of our positivity is the only way we can put out the fire of anger.



~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Great Positive Sentences!

Whenever we face problems we tend to blame situations and people and feel that these problems have come to take away our power. We begin to wish for something to happen to change the situation so that we can be free from the problem itself. But it normally seems to take a long time before the situation changes. The only way we can be free from the problem is to create a solution for it. The situation will not change on its own but we need to create some solution for it. This is what brings inner strength which is because of what we have discovered within while working on our problem.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Success Is Involved In Team Work !

Although we want to fufill our responsibilities well, we sometimes find ourselves alone. This is so because we usually feel it is much easier not to involve many. We normally do this in order to avoid the different kinds of personalities that we have to deal with. This attitude deprives us of others' support and cooperation. When involved in a big task, we need to see to it that we involve many. When we involve many and make sure we make use of their specialties, even the most difficult task will be made easy. Secondly, the good wishes of all involved will be for the task, which will add to its success.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Keep Your Mind Cool And Calm !

Whenever we are faced with difficult situations, we are not able to have positive thoughts at that time. We come under the influence of that situation and continue to create negative thoughts. So we are not able to do anything to correct the situation, nor are we able to learn from it. Since we cannot change the situation that we are faced with, we need to take care to increase our own power. When our own state of mind is more powerful than the situation, I am able to keep my mind cool and calm. Thus I am able to take a new learning from every situation and in turn make myself more powerful.



~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

God’s Blessings Are Always With Us !

Normally we feel that only if we have God's love and mercy can we move forward and progress. But we are not always sure about what God has in store for us. So we wait for something to happen before we can achieve purity and perfection. It is in fact the other way round, that the more we come back to our pure form, where we are clean and clear inside, the more we become worthy of God's love and blessings. It is these blessings that further strengthen our own specialties and help us progress.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Make Positive Changes To Overcome Your Weakness !

The normal reaction to negative situations (situations that hold a threat for me) is to react with negativity (with my weakness). But the problem with such a reaction is that each time I use my weakness it only gets further strengthened, and becomes a part of my nature. I need to remind myself that only when I free myself from my weaknesses can I bring benefit to myself or to others. This thought will enable me to constantly check myself and put in constant effort to change myself too in overcoming my weaknesses.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Contentment Within Helps You To Serve Others Better !

Sometimes we try to fill the gap in our lives, by doing something good for others or by serving others. When we want to do something good for others, we look for the contentment that service brings, but this too may not be the solution. The pre-qualification for serving others, i.e., to give others, is to have contentment within. Only when we have this specialty can we serve selflessly with whatever resources we have. We are able to use all resources well for others' benefit and we are free from expectations too.



~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Honesty Helps You To Deal With The Situation !

We normally understand honesty to be free from lying or free from falsehood. So although we try to be honest at that level we are not able to sustain that, as we face challenges from the environment. True honesty is more connected with our innate nature, than just being free from lies. When we are honest we are able to see what we need to do according to the situation. We are able to bring about a change in such a way that we never repeat the mistake that we have committed.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Create Harmony With A Calm State Of Mind !

When we have to do something big and we are not able to do it on our own, we expect help from others. But not always do we get that help. This further gets us into a state of negativity and we are not able to give our best. This also in turn affects our relationships. We need to have a long time of practice of doing good things, which get us blessings and good wishes from others. It is these good wishes which help us at the time of need. Also due to this, even if things go wrong, we are able to maintain a calm state of mind and good relationships, thus creating harmony and greater output.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Balancing Your Acts Makes You Successful In Your Relationships !

To be balanced is to have the ability to do the right thing at the right time. It is the ability to use the head and the heart at the same time. It is the ability to have love and discipline. There is neither too much love nor too much discipline. There is an equal quantity of both. When there is balance in my every act I am successful in my relationships. Because of this I receive their blessings too. I experience success in all I do and am able to enjoy a life of bliss. I am not caught up with questions about anything but am able to get the solutions in a second.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Communicate With Fewer Words For Best Effect !

Most of the times we spend a lot of time and energy in explaining to others about what we want to say. We not only waste our time and energy in this but people tend to move away when a lot is said. We are not listened to properly. A lot can be said using a few words. When we check ourselves with honesty and think of what we want to communicate, we can do it more easily with fewer words. Thus we save our time, energy and that of others too. Others are more willing to listen to us and follow what we expect them to do.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Practicing Virtues Helps Maintain Positivity !

When we face negative situations, we either become negative or we try to move away from the situation. But that too becomes a temporary solution, as the negative thoughts, feelings and emotions continue to follow us. The only way we can come into positivity, even in the most negative situation, is by connecting to our innate qualities. Deep within us are the most beautiful qualities of peace, love and happiness, which we mistakenly look for outside. Practicing with these qualities help us maintain positivity under all circumstances.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Confidence Helps You To Solve Any Problems !

When difficult situations come our way, we generally are not able to be confident of our success. So although there is a chance to do something, we are not able to give our best. Each new situation is perceived as a threat. Once fear creeps in, the situation further worsens and all chances of success are gone. When we are determined we become confident of our success. With this confidence we are able to do everything necessary till we succeed. We never let go off anything half way, but see to it that the task is completed. With every obstacle our determination further increases, thus enabling us to progress at every step. So we find ourselves getting better and better and there is success for us constantly.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Free Yourselves From The Past And Move Forward !

Most of the times we are slaves of the past. Although the situation has become past, we tend to think of it again and again. We are neither able to forget the past nor are we able to forgive. We continue to create the same thoughts and the same feelings again and again. Thus we find that we are just caught up in the past, and we are not able to learn from it. In order to move forward to the future, we need to free our mind of the past. If we learn from the past, with this learning we can move forward. We need to forgive and forget. We can forget only when we forgive and we can forgive only when we learn. When we take the learning from every situation, we are able to be free from being a slave of the past.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Create A Positive Space For Rebuilding Your Relationships !

It is so easy to speak negatively when we do not like something about someone. Sometimes we do react to the situation and get angry. We continue to find fault with that person. The person too responds negatively to our negative thoughts. And so there is no hope of creating a positive relationship. When something goes wrong in any relationship, the first thing we need to do is to keep our mind calm and cool. When we do this, we will not be caught up with the negativity of the situation or the negative trait of the person at that time, but we will be able to see something beautiful in that person. We will be able to appreciate and connect to the uniqueness of that person, thus creating space for rebuilding that relationship.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Explore Your Hidden Treasures !

When we are faced with difficult situations, we usually tend to have a feeling that we have no resources or are not able to make the best use of the resources within for best results. Thus we are not able to experience real progress. On the other hand we only tend to experience a lot of negative feelings. When we learn the art of being stable in the most negative situations, we know how to use the treasures that are hidden within ourselves. Our mind is no longer disturbed with waste or negative thoughts and we find it easy to face and learn from each and every situation.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Allow Flexibility In Your Life !

When I plan perfectly for the day ahead, I sometimes find that I am not able to implement all that I had planned for. Things seem to be coming up unexpectedly spoiling everything for me. I am then not able to be happy with what is happening and so find it difficult to do my best or what is required for me to do. It is as important to be flexible in my thoughts as it is to be particular about my daily schedule. Flexibility allows me to accommodate the unforeseen situations that come up my way and enables me to make the best use of everything. And so I enjoy everything that comes my way.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Accept Everyone In Their Own Unique Way !

We usually expect people to behave according to our expectations. We would like to see people change according to our expectations and we expect them to mould themselves with our own value system. Yet we notice that this does not happen and then we tend to become disappointed. We need to understand that each one is unique with his own specialties, and uniqueness. When we are able to appreciate this uniqueness we are able to respect each and every human being and the unique contribution he can make. So with this change in our consciousness we will not expect others to change according to my wish but will take benefit from their uniqueness.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Inspire The Best In Others !

To be cooperative to someone who is being good to you, and to get the cooperation of "good" people is easy. But not always do we get people's cooperation consistently. When we don't, it affects the task and our own state of mind negatively. True cooperation comes from a vision of hope and faith in each and every individual we come into contact with. When we have this vision, we are able to give cooperation in the right way to people. And we are also able to get their cooperation at all times for all tasks, for we will be able to inspire the best in them.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Have A Positive Conversation With God !

One of the best ways to remain light, even in the middle of chaos and heaviness, is to keep a conversation with God. Chatting to God, whose responsibilities are unlimited, about trivial matters that are wearing us down gives us a more entertaining view of life. It requires a certain stillness of mind to hear His advice, but with practice we learn to sense His perspective on our minor irritations. Since His mind radiates lightness and love, the very act of opening ourselves up to Him enables us to lighten our burdens.



~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Transform The Circumstances Into Positive Ones To Create A New Destiny !

When I am disheartened, I may do one of the two: I either suffer quietly by admonishing my incapabilities and fate or I externalize my problems by blaming God and those around me. Apart from the stress I create for myself and negative karma with other souls, what's important is that either way I am not solving the problem. Each one of us face disappointment at our own times, but the longer I allow these feelings to stay on the more attached they become. I can only begin to heal the situation and myself by 'wanting a change', 'wanting relief' and 'wanting something better as I deserve it.' This positive attitude works as catalysis to transform circumstances, take me closer to God and create a new destiny.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Good Inspirational Talks !

When you have the power to accommodate, you are mature enough to merge gossip, rumours, people's weaknesses and sanskars and not spread bad vibrations. Just as a mother never talks ill of her children's defects or as the ocean accepts the rubbish rivers bring along, God teaches us to be sensible and discreet. These qualities make us trustworthy and give us the power to build relationships rather than walls.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Humble Positive Words !

Ganeshji, the deity acclaimed for being Destroyer of Obstacles became so after God severed the false head of ego. What a powerful reminder of how detrimental ego can be! Ego pushes me towards all that is temporary and mirage-like i.e. connected with the body (high or low education, good or ordinary physical appearance, status at home and work, professional experiences). It traps the mind in limited, petty thinking and prevents me from recognizing the value of virtues because they seem worthless in today's materialistic, competitive world. A humble person may have to swallow bitter words and actions from time to time, however he or she is guaranteed to receive God's unlimited blessings and love - what more could we ask for.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Manage Your Thoughts Sensibly !

A great number of us wish we weren't forgetful or careless. But interestingly enough, the mind generally forgets normal, routine things but can't get away from contemplating on the past or future (could be my own or others). It's not surprising that my mind finds it hard to remember what I need for today, when it's trying to manage the traffic jam of thoughts pertaining to yesterday and tomorrow. We could argue that the past has many good things to adopt or that we need to plan for the future, but along with that I end up encouraging the past or future to weigh me down. Let me guard my thoughts carefully and not allow any leakage of the mind power.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Interact With People With Positivity !

Our words can either spiritually sustain souls or damage their self-esteem. Whether we are talking about someone's faults or weaknesses, passing comments on a situation that does not concern us, or giving private information we create an atmosphere that could suffocate any soul in the vicinity and reduce chances of improvement or productivity. Remember that it's very difficult to trust someone who speaks without thinking of the consequences. We can save a lot of time and energy by paying attention to how we interact and express ourselves in relationships.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Intelligent Positive Thoughts !

We learn a lot about someone's personality simply by listening to them. On a gross level it reveals a person's background, education, intelligence, wittiness etc. However it also brings to light one's attitude and sanskars (personality traits): How much do we live in the past or future and not the present, do we appreciate the positive aspects in situations and people, are our words spoken with arrogance or humility, does my lax nature make me speak inappropriately or does my intellect first judge the situation, time, person, and consequences before I allow words to emerge? It pays to 'Speak Less, Speak Slowly and Speak Sweetly' as it creates a place for me in other's hearts in no time.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Have Faith And Patience And Bring About Good Transformation !

Would you reprimand a young child for their mischievousness or mistakes? Though it's important to be firm in teaching discipline, a good parent or care-giver realizes that the child is innocent of how it should behave. Therefore, the approach is patient and loving. But what happens when we see adults making big-little errors? Our mature self makes us react, comment, argue and say "But they should know better..." It's true that adults have to be more responsible for their actions but that's not always the case. It's in our best interest to accept that no matter how much we correct people, they are likely to change at their own time. At times, we all come under the influence of our sanskars which compel us to act against better judgment. As we are in the same boat, keeping faith and good wishes for others (and ourselves) is the best way to guide and bring about good transformation.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Forgive And Forget To Lead A Normal Life !

We sometimes find it very difficult to forgive the mistakes committed by others. We do try to understand but are not able to understand the other person's behaviour and so find it difficult to forgive them. When I have love for myself and am able to learn from all that happens, I am able to forgive myself. When I know to do this, I can understand the other person too from his perspective and can easily forgive him.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Powerful Resources Should Be Utilised For Better Life !

When there is power within, we are able to do what is required at the right time. We are able to find the resources and use them appropriately. All we have to do is to be a master and order and the right resource will be obediently accessible for use. To say "I will try to do it" is to experience failure even before beginning something. We need to have the thought that I will do it come what may. Then the seed of our thought will be of faith and not of doubt. So we will be successful in doing what we have to.

Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Bring Positive Awareness In Your Thoughts !

There is usually attention on the self not to perform any negative acts. There is also considerable attention not to speak any words that are harmful or negative. But very rarely is there that attention on the thoughts. Because of this a lot of negative thoughts tend to remain in the intellect causing trouble for me. I need to understand the fact that my thoughts form the basis for my words and actions. The more I pay attention to make my thoughts positive, the more it will have a positive impact on my words and actions too. Constant awareness of a positive thought enables me to maintain my own inner positivity.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Keep Your Mind Stable And Experience Worthy Thoughts !

When we are faced with challenges, we usually experience that there are not sufficient resources or we are not able to make use of our resources for best results. So instead of experiencing progress, we experience a lot of negative feelings. When we learn the art of being stable in the most negative situations, we know how to use the treasures that are hidden within us. Our mind is no longer disturbed with waste or negative thoughts and we find it easy to face and learn from each and every situation.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Check And Change Your Ways For A Positive Approach !

When we have to fulfill certain responsibilities, we find ourselves in a lot of tension. We find it very difficult to relieve the tension, specially when we feel there is demand from the situation or expectations from people beyond our capabilities. In demanding situations and in general too the way to relieve ourselves from tension is to have constant attention. It is important to have attention during difficult times, but it is also necessary to keep attention on the self even during normal conditions. Constant attention brings about "checking and changing" and relieves us of tension.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Do Not Expect Too Much From Others !

We usually have expectations for taking from others and situations. We do want the best from everything, yet we are not able to take as much as we are capable of. We try harder but are not able to get the best out of situations and people. We need to empty ourselves of all that is not required for us, before we can even think of getting the best of everything. We will be able to take the best, if we free ourselves from waste.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Make Positive Improvement In Your Attitude Towards Any Situation !

Our children, our work, are they a burden or a responsibility? If our responsibilities become burdens then it would seem that we are not content with our circumstances, and are hoping for a change. For things to be different there has to be a change whether in a gross way like change in location, or in a subtle, more meaningful way - change in attitude. For e.g. if you are given a job and told to complete it in 15 mins with no reason given for the job, your responsibility becomes a burden. Then you find out that the work is for a person whom you are extremely fond of, your attitude changes and your responsibility is no longer a burden; out of love you will finish the work faster.

With change in attitude there is improvement in every situation. Sometimes it only takes a thought to create a change in attitude, it is like a key. We often forget to use the keys we have. See how many keys you have to unlock the treasures of personality and use them as required. It is better to have responsibilities than burdens.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Good Work Always Pays !

It is very natural for me to help others when I see them in need. At that time I don't expect anything from them and continue to help. But when I need help or support I begin to expect from those whom I had helped and if they don't, my feelings are hurt. At the time that I am providing help, I need to consciously remind myself not to have expectations. Again when I need help and I find myself expecting from others, I need to explain to myself and have faith that whatever help I have given will surely come back to me at the right time. The seed that I have sown will not be wasted away but will surely bear fruit.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Bring Positiveness In Your Acts !

When there is some problem experienced physically, it is but natural for the mind to go towards it. The mind is totally focused on the ill health, as we tend to pay more attention to the sickness. Thus we are not able to experience relief from the pain. The disease of the mind further increases disease in the body. The one way that helps us get over the physical ailment of the body is to start feeling healthy. We need to divert our mind to more constructive things. This will help the mind to keep busy so that no thought of sickness comes. We also need to give ourselves thoughts of our good health. Then we would surely find ourselves coming back to health.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Think Positively To Experience Progress In Life !

Although we do have a lot in our lives, we have expectations from situations and people around us. We constantly think of what we have to get from them. Such expectations make us dependent on others for self-progress. Then we find ourselves experiencing progress only when things are going right or when people are cooperative. Instead of thinking about what we want to get, we need to pay more attention to what we have, so that we can do our best using these resources to acquire what we want. Thus we will experience constant progress in our life, whether the situations are positive in my life or not.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Determination In Thoughts Is Very Important !

There are a lot of negative situations that come our way, as we are moving along in life. During the difficult phase we tend to experience a lot of negativity within too, either in the form of fear, anger or pain. At that time the difficulty seems very big and seems to last forever. We need to recognize the fact that whatever difficulties we face are like passing clouds. These clouds come at their time and will fade away at their time too. We need to develop the determination to work on our problems with this understanding. Determination in thoughts disperse the clouds of negative situations. We will then be able to face the situation with ease.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Practice What Is Good And Worthy !

Most of the times, theory and practice become two different things in our lives. We know a lot of things, but we do not bring that into our practical lives. We only tend to talk about it to those around. So our valuable thoughts are wasted, creating a habit of wastage. We have to make effort for ourselves. We need to start applying into practice what is good and worthy. The first step is to understand. Having understood we need to sustain these thoughts by bringing them to action. Not only will our lives be enriched, but also there will be power in every thought of ours.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt. Abu.

Practice To Possess Only Positive Thoughts !

We do pay special attention to keep our actions good and worthy. We also have a good amount of attention on our words. But we hardly ever think of our thoughts. When certain thoughts become repetitive they tend to have a hold over us. It is important for me to keep a practice of having positive thoughts. When we have this practice of positivity, there is power in our thoughts. Each and every thought becomes a treasure from which we can draw a lot. Our words and actions, then automatically become powerful too.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Check Your Words !

When someone disbelieves me I usually tend to argue back and try to prove my point to the others but find that I am not able to convince them. Yet I find that the more I talk the less I am listened to. And I only end up getting frustrated. When someone challenges the truth of my words, I need to check within myself if there is something that I can correct or learn. When I learn to do this, instead of being stubborn with what I have to say or blaming others, I find it easy to tolerate.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Find Positiveness In Other’s Acts !

When someone says something that I don't like, I usually see the other person's negativity and continue to find fault with him. This is usually because I am not able to understand the particular situation. I need to recognize the fact that people in my life are there for a reason and I can learn from everything that happens through my interactions with them. Recognizing this fact will stop me from blaming others and start using each learning for my own personal growth.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Keep Out Of Low Phases And Think Positively !

Whenever things don't go the way I want them to, I start thinking negatively and end up feeling low. The more I think negatively the worse I feel. The negativity inside me increases and I spread it around by reacting negatively with other people which in turn gets me depressed. I need to constantly remind myself that thinking is actually feeling. All I need to do is to control my negative thoughts and deliberately induce positive thoughts. This way I will be able to control the way I feel about a situation or a person and keep out of the low phases that I otherwise go through.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Have Positive And Good Wishes For Others !

When we come into contact with others, it is easy to see their negativity or weaknesses. Then through our words and attitude, we repeatedly remind them of their weaknesses. So we tend to become a reminder for others for their own negativity. This in turn negatively influences our every interaction with others. Making others aware of their specialities and subtly encouraging them to use these specialities is a great help that we can do for others. When we are able to give this unique help and cooperation, we not only find benefit for others, but we are also able to get the good wishes of others. Even others naturally become positive with our positive attitude.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Create A Special Feeling For A Task To Carry It Out Successfully !

Sometimes, while doing even a special task, our consciousness tends to become ordinary because of negative feelings for the self or others. Such thoughts make even a special task into an ordinary one. So what has to be done in a beautiful way is done in a very ordinary way. So there is a tendency to just perform action and finish the task at hand, which does not bring speciality and accuracy as much as it should. We need to understand that as is the consciousness, so is the feeling behind the task, and therefore its quality. When we are able to start each task with a special consciousness, like "I am victorious", or "I am powerful" or "this task is for the benefit of all", we are able to experience the speciality of doing the task. We are also able to increase our state of self-respect, whatever the task or however simple it maybe.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Behave Positively With Others !

Sometimes we are caught up with negative feelings like jealousy or hatred towards another person. These feelings naturally create misunderstanding and conflict. Even if the other person has a good feeling while doing something, a negative intention is attributed and this naturally changes one’s own behaviour or response making it negative too. Instead of being caught up with negative feelings, we need to wear the glasses of seeing specialities. Like the one who wears coloured glasses sees everything to be of that particular colour, we too will then see only the specialties in others. This will help us to free our mind of negativity and we will start behaving positively with others too.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Maturity Lies In Accepting Responsibility !

Accepting responsibility without feeling burdened by it may seem unrealistic. Yet it is possible so long as we stay close to our inner self and strength. If we are willing to trust them, spiritual principles and values work like unseen hand guiding everything in a beneficial direction. When we remain aware of this force at work, we can accept responsibility and strive to fulfill it without worrying about results.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Observe Benevolent Ways Of Seeing Things !

Protecting our sense of optimism is the best way to remain cheerful. We can do this by starting the day with meditation to pour light and love into the scenes we are likely to find ahead of us that day. And then if we keep touching base with God's mind and His benevolent way of seeing things, the inner happiness we experience will help us pass through any situation without feeling weary.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Important Timely Thoughts !

There is no time like the present. The present provides opportunities for improvement because whatever step we make will either take us up or down, forward or backward. The present gives us the chance the chance to lay a brick for the future. The past cannot change, but the present brings with it the time to change, to build and improve - time to fill ourselves in the areas we are lacking. As the scene of life's Drama brings gifts with it, we must look for presents in the present. They are present, easily visible in light and easy scenes but cleverly hidden in dramatic scenes. To develop the habit of letting present become past without finding the gifts it has brought is to be a loser.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.
