Learn From The Past !

The one who is simple is the one who is free from pain. When we are simple we are able to be free from pain or hurt even in adverse situations. We are able to take benefit from the wealth of experiences accumulated over the past without feeling the pain. With simplicity we know that we need to remember the past only to the extent that we have to learn from it. When something goes wrong and we find ourselves thinking about it again and again, we need to remind ourselves that all the past experiences are only for us to learn from. The past is finished and we don't have to undergo the sorrow again thinking about the past repeatedly.

Look At Everything In A Positive Way !

The one who has the power to face is free from tensions. To be good with those who are good is quite natural, but to be good with those who are bad is known as having the power to face. This naturally comes when there is the power to transform even that which in negative into something positive. When there is the power to face, there is no retaliation, no conflict. There is love given to all around. When I am able to transform and look at each and everything in a positive way, I will not have any difficulty with any situation. I will naturally be able to face all situations in a light and easy way. When I am able to be free from tension in this way, I am also able to give my best and thus become an inspiration for those around me.

Remain Clean Within To Make The Right Decisions !

Cleanliness of the intellect brings accurate decision making. When the intellect is not clear, it is constantly wandering and it becomes tired. A tired intellect is not able to concentrate properly and so whatever decisions are made at that time are not so accurate. When there is cleanliness within there are no waste or negative thoughts and the entire thought power is used in the right way and so the right decisions are made. When I am clean within, I am able to experience lightness. Because I am clean and clear within, I find that I do not have any conflict or difficulty in making decisions. Instead I will be able to find the flow of thoughts moving in the right direction very naturally. So I find things also moving in the right direction.

Get At The Root Of Every Problem !

Problem solving is to work at the roots of a problem. When a problem comes up we usually try to work at removing the problem at hand by trying various methods based on the understanding we have. We don't go deep into the actual cause of the problem and so find it repeating again and again. Unless we understand the root cause of the problem we will not be able to get rid of it fully. The trick to problem solving is to go to the root, i.e. to find the actual cause. When we find and work at removing the actual cause of the problem we will never find it repeating. For example, if the actual problem might be inability to finish everything in time, the cause behind might not be lack of sufficient time, but my own carelessness.

Try To Achieve Peace Of Mind !

Who are the thieves of peace? Why is peace lost in relationships? Complaints, guilt and comparisons are the main destroyers of peace. Instead of complaining, share newness. Instead of looking for someone to blame, take responsibility for improving the situation. Instead of comparing yourself to others, value the good that is in them.

With Simplicity You Become Accurate And Inspiring !

Simplicity enables one to become an example. Simplicity is free from the complications of waste questions, doubts and expectations. The one who is simple is naturally accurate and inspiring in his actions. He is able to understand the demands of the environment and mould himself accordingly, so he himself has no demands. And he is able to move forward to his satisfaction. When we are simple in our thoughts, we are also able to be simple in our responses to the outer environment i.e., to both situations and people. So internally we are able to remain content. This contentment further brings newness and creativity in the way we respond to situations, and we naturally experience further progress.

Maintain A Balance Of Being A Master And A Child !

To have the balance of being a master and a child is to experience constant success. To have the right balance means to know when to be a master and when to be a child. When I give an idea or makes a contribution, it is as a master - with total authority. But while the idea is heard by others and is being criticised I become a child. There is no attachment to the idea, but the mind is open to receive new thoughts in order to enrich what is already there. When I am able to maintain a balance between being master and a child, I am able to experience constant happiness I am able to put forth my creative ideas with confidence. Yet I am not upset when someone criticises my ideas. On the contrary, I am constantly learning and moving forward. So I constantly experience success.

There Is Power In Each One Of Us !

We think sometimes that the deepest secrets of life can only be uncovered in a monastery – can only be found at the end of a long and difficult journey to a land somewhere near the roof of the world. We don’t even dare hope that we will be one of the lucky ones who finds the true master to teach us a true path to follow. It seems to impossible. We think sometimes that the greatest adventure, the most meaningful quest can only be found by someone not bound by an ordinary life. That we must be free of family and job, with our back pack ready, and a ticket to some exotic destination promising possibilities. The truth is that seekers come in all shapes and sizes, living all kinds of lives. The truth is there is a power in each of us, a power that goes largely untapped and unrecognized, hidden even from our own selves. The truth is that we don’t have to go anywhere, there are no tickets to buy, no bags to pack. But you do have to be ready to travel. The truth is that the quest exists, the journey is real. The traveler is you.

Tolerance Is A Great Virtue !

Tolerance means to bounce back even when thrown against a very hard wall. The ability to do this comes from sensing that life is a game and that all things move in cycles. What is uncomfortable now will soon change. Tolerance is like saying yes to the game and enjoying it.

Success Is Achieved Through Self Respect !

Success comes through maintaining self-respect. Where there is self-respect, there is naturally a stable state of mind, even in the most challenging and difficult times. This in turn brings right judgement at all times, which allows discrimination between right and wrong. Right judgement leads to right actions. So there is constant success for such a person. Self-respect is the state of mind where I am able to appreciate my own uniqueness and give regard to myself. When I am able to be in my stage of self-respect, I am able to be stable in all situations. This seat of internal stability keeps me light and easy under all circumstances. I am also able to experience constant success even in the most difficult and challenging times.

Find The Goodness Within You !

Introspection enables one to be free from the influence of negativity. Introspection means the desire to be good. Introspection brings the ability to look within and see the true self in the mirror of the heart, thus enabling one to activate the inner spirituality. Then all effort made will be towards activating this inherent goodness. And slowly one finds that the behaviour associated with negative traits are no more expressed, as they begin to lose their hold. When I am able to introspect and look within, I can find the goodness that is there within me. Because of this, I naturally am free from expectations from others that they should recognise my goodness or consider me good. Instead I find myself content with what I am and continue to bring out the best from within me. I continue to learn from all situations and experience progress.

Have Love For True Knowledge !

True knowledge brings humility. True knowledge inspires and encourages one to bring about a practical change in one's life. The one with knowledge naturally imbibes it, which is also revealed in his practical life. This is because he is humbly willing to learn from all situations. As much as there is knowledge, so much there is divinity and elevatedness revealed in all words and actions. Also such a person keeps learning from all life's situations. To have the ability to learn from all that life brings is to have love for knowledge. Since I have love for knowledge, I am able to experience self-respect. This self-respect gives me the humility to accept situations and people as they are and keep learning. So whatever the situation or whoever the person I come across, I only find myself enriching myself and moving forward.

True Courage Brings About A Positive Change !

True courage brings benefit to the self as well as to others. When there is fear, there is some kind of danger, either for the self or for others. The one who fears, or the one who doesn't have the courage to accept and face situations, is not able to bring out the best form within himself. Such a person is constantly thinking of excuses and is trying to blame others for the mistakes that happen. With courage, if we are able to take up responsibility for every situation that we are faced with, we are able to be free from worry or tension. We will then be in a position to learn and find progress at every step. We find others giving us a lot of good wishes for our sincerity. We also become an inspiration for all others too to bring about a positive change.

Also the best is made out of all situations. When we are able to be enthusiastic under all circumstances, we are able to be tireless. This tirelessness gives us the courage to move on and experience constant success. We become aware of our resources and make the best use of them. We also experience internal progress, constantly.

One Of The Deepest Satisfactions In Life Can Come From Giving !

Some days its hard to get out of bed and get going. Why? Simple really. We try to reverse the energy flow in a universe where all energy is radiating outwards. We try to break one of the spiritual laws. We are taught that winning and achieving are about getting and keeping, when the truth is that winning is about giving. Winners are go givers not go-getters, and their definition of winning is not getting one over on the other guy, but overcoming their inertia and giving something of themselves to someone or something other than themselves. This reverses the energy flow from being outside in, to being inside out, and as we all know, one of the deepest satisfactions in life can come from giving. While it is hard to fathom living a life of giving, when everyone else is on the take, there is an ancient law which ensures that if we did, we would never go without. I think you know what that law is. It allows you to be motivated in a completely different way. No need for any complicated magical solutions ...try it today!

Allow Your Strength To Be Revealed In Your Words And Actions !

The method to finish a weakness is to be detached from it. When there is some weakness working within that has to be overcome, it is very essential for one to get detached from it, that means not to identify with the weakness. If there is an identification with the weakness, it is further strengthened and there is the inability to get rid of it. Since it is there in the consciousness, it is visible in the words and actions too. When we are free from the identification with the weakness, we are able to bring about a change very quickly. We find it very easy to stabilise ourselves in the awareness of our strength and allow that strength to be revealed in all our words and actions. There is no heaviness of the weakness nor is there the feeling of having to give up something, but transformation takes place very easily.

Be Obedient And Remain Content And Positive !

Obedience takes one towards the right direction. Obedience means understanding everything that comes one's way and allowing it to guide life in the right way because nothing comes without a reason. An obedient mind is able to see the positive aspect and understand why there is that kind of a situation and humbly allows the situation to do its work. When I am obedient I am able to remain content and positive. I am not disheartened by low situations but understand that every low situation pushes me upward with greater force. So I enjoy being obedient and easy under all circumstances, yet being powerful within.

Do Your Best And Use Your Resources For Your Progress !

Faith in one's progress brings contentment. Even when the situation is not according to what is expected, there is contentment for the one who has faith in his own progress. Such a person will not just sit back waiting for things to change nor will he just curse his fate. Instead he'll do his best and use all his resources in bettering the situation. The understanding that all life's situations are a training for him, automatically keeping him content in all situations. There is naturally an experience of constant progress and a feeling of having gained something from all situations.

Make The Best Use Of What You Have !

The ones who are constantly happy are truly fortunate. Whatever the kind of situations needed to be faced, whoever the people and the different kind of personalities they come into contact with, the ones who are fortunate constantly enjoy. They also continue to take benefit and bring benefit to others too. Their fortune lies in their ability to perceive the positive aspect in everything and take benefit accordingly. When we are able to be happy under all circumstances, we are able to make the best use of whatever we have with ourselves. We then find ourselves full of all resources. We don't think of what we don't have but we are aware of and make the best use of what we have. So we find ourselves to be always lucky. We constantly move forward.

Become A Well Wisher !

To be a well wisher means to think of changing first. Being a well wisher just doesn't mean wishing others well. It also means having good wishes for the self and having the pure desire to bring about a change for the better in the self. So whatever the kind of situations, instead of just judging others and what they need to change, the one who is a well-wisher constantly brings about transformation in the self. For having worked on ourselves under all circumstances and having used every situation as a chance for self-progress, we constantly enjoy every thing that comes our way. We have no expectations, but just think of benefit for others and ourselves. We then never find any situation to be an obstacle, but use it as a step for progress.

Greatness Lies In Simplicity !



Greatness is visible in simplicity. The simplicity within us brings benefit to many. Simplicity doesn't mean we have to give up all we have, but it only means that we give up the attraction and attachment to whatever we are using. With simplicity our lifestyle takes on an easiness that in itself can be a healing source to those around. We need to make the practice of being detached even while using everything. We need not give up anything, but while using everything, we need to remember that what we have is for the use of everyone and not to get dependent on it. When we are detached in this way we will be able to bring benefit to all around us.

Always Be Ready To Accept Advice Or Suggestions !

To accept advice is to ensure self-progress. The natural state of the self is to ensure progress. Everything that is done by the self is for its progress. But the one who rejects advice rejects the progress of the self. To accept advice means to take the chance for whatever benefit that comes one’s way. When someone corrects us or gives us an advice or suggestions, if we accept it in the right spirit, we'll constantly learn from it. This will enable us to experience constant progress. We are also naturally able to give regard to everyone we come into contact with and remain in constant happiness.

Humility Earns Respect From Others !

Humility enables one to serve others. The one who is humble is the one who is complete and full. So just like a tree which is laden with fruit, bowing down and offering all it has humbly, the one who is full is ready for service. He is available for others to take benefit from whatever resources are there with him. This humility earns respect from others and gives happiness to all. When we are able to bow down with the awareness of what we have, we are fully in the stage of our self-respect. The more we are able to bow, the more others also bow down with regard to us and respect our fortune. This enables us to be a giver to those around and experience contentment - constantly.

By Perfection You Bring About Self Progress !

The ones who work towards perfection naturally inspire perfection in others. All life's situations are lessons for bringing about progress, for the one who is committed towards perfection. Such a person never expects others to be perfect, knowing that every human being has his own weaknesses. He is instead able to accommodate others' weaknesses. He only inspires others to bring about transformation and work towards perfection. When we are constantly working towards bringing perfection within ourselves, we are able to take everything that happens to us in a positive way, as a chance for bringing about self-progress. Also we are able to keep ourselves positive seeing only the goodness in the other individual and encouraging it. So we are able to enjoy each moment of our lives.

Experience Positivity From Within !

Love for positivity brings progress. When I have love for positivity, I will not be able to have negative thoughts for a long time. I will naturally put in effort, both internally and externally to come back to positivity. So this positivity spreads around to others too and serves in creating a positive environment. Because of my love for positivity, I begin to enjoy creating and maintaining positive thoughts. When there is experience of positivity within, there is the natural desire to sustain it. Then no negative thoughts or feelings are encouraged. Slowly I find myself being only positive.

Communicate Silently To Achieve Best Results !

The language of silence is more powerful than the sound of words. When something is expressed in silence, it is with the power of thoughts. Such thoughts spread positive vibrations and reach out to the others, in such a way that even the words can't. Also when such kind of positive actions are added to the positive thoughts, the desired effect of that is seen. Then the words are not needed to express good intentions and good wishes. When we are able to express ourselves through the language of silence, we are able to be free from expectations for others to listen to what we are saying. We will only be silently communicating whatever we have to through our good wishes and inspiring others through our positive actions. So we are able to remain content and light, even when we have not yet seen the result of our communication.

Be Committed Towards Truth !

Commitment for truth brings constant happiness. For the one who is constantly with the truth, there will be no fluctuations in the happiness - experienced by the self and expressed to the others. So there is benefit for both the self and others through this. Only when there is no truth, the support of falsehood is taken to prove and defend oneself. So the happiness is not retained constantly. When we are committed towards living by the truth, we will not be influenced by the different situations that we are faced with, but will be able to experience constant happiness. We will never be influenced negatively by negative situations and allow ourselves to lose our happiness and we find our happiness rising constantly.



~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Have Mercy For Others !

Mercy means to give courage. The one who is merciful is able to give courage to the ones who are weak, because of the ability to look at the positive qualities in them. The weak ones are made weaker with negative and discouraging talk, but are encouraged to discover and use the strengths that are hidden within. So real mercy will give the courage to the other person to change too. When we have mercy on others, we will never lose hope on anyone, but will continue to have good wishes for everyone. Whatever the kind of person, even with the most negative situation, I will find our stock of good wishes to always be full. So we are able to be free from the expectation from the others to bring about a change immediately.

Have A Stronger Heart !

The heart is like a flower - unless it is open it cannot release its fragrance into the world. The fragrance of the heart is made up of the qualities and virtues of our spirit. Most of us have learned how to keep our heart closed in a world that would trample all over us if we let it. Being open hearted today seems to require tremendous courage. It is a courage which comes only when we realise that no one can hurt us, no matter what they say or do. They may hurt our body, but if we have realised we are spirit, nothing outside can touch us, if we so decide.

Detachment Helps Us To Be Free Of Dependency !

The one who is detached enjoys all facilities and yet is not dependent. For the ones who are detached, the facilities available are a medium for attaining something. They make the best use of each and everything available, for their benefit and the benefit of others. Yet they don't stop because of lack of facilities because they are able to find a way even if there is nothing available. When we are detached, our internal stage is beyond fluctuation. We are able to enjoy each and every thing that comes our way and be light constantly. Also it enables us to be free of dependency. So we are able to make use of all facilities, and yet be free from negative feelings when we are deprived of them.

Humility Makes You Powerful !

The one with humility is the one who can be creative. Creativity comes to the extent that the intellect is humble. Such an intellect is able to create something new. Because humility is a form of love, it brings the enthusiasm for creativity and the ability to bring newness in everything that is done. Humility gives us an experience of being a master, of being powerful. This power comes from the experience of being a constant learner, because we have no ego of what we already have. This mastery makes us creative, making us bring newness in every thing we do.

What Is Real Freedom ?

Freedom is a state of mind. Understanding the self is the key to freedom. The more one understands the self, the easier it is to be liberated from the chains of waste and negativity. Freedom is to be uninfluenced and unaffected, to be at peace with the self. Real freedom is to experience the true essence of one’s being.

Perfection Is Attained By Doing & Practicing Regularly !

If one waited to do something so well that nobody could find fault with it, one would probably do nothing. So whilst it is good to aspire to perfection, it should be perfection attained through doing and practicing regularly, no matter what the circumstances are.

Life Is Nurtured By Different Types Of Attitude !

When you extend pure love to everyone with selfless motivation that is an attitude of kindness. When you send good wishes and pure feelings to those who are in deep sorrow, that is an attitude of mercy. When you see the virtues rather than the weaknesses in people that is an attitude of compassion. When you bless and uplift someone even as they defame you, that is an attitude of forgiveness. When you tolerate a situation and take responsibility as well as give cooperation even when not appreciated, that is an attitude of humility and self- respect. Every second, every moment and every breath of your life is nurtured by attitude.

Always Have Pure & Positive Feelings !

To sow the seeds of pure feelings constantly is to experience positive fruit. When my feelings are constantly positive and pure, there is no expectation of the fruit to emerge immediately. Even if others are not able to respond to the positivity or if situations are not according to my expectations, there is still the feeling of giving. So there is this positivity expressed through the vibrations spread around and in every word and action. The more I am able to have pure feelings for those around me, the more is the positivity that emerges from within. Because of having discovered the positivity within, I am able to give unconditionally. So I experience the immediate fruit of what I have given and also accumulate for the future, and continue to enjoy multifold fruit of what I give.

Do All Tasks With Love And Experience Lightness !

Victory is guaranteed to the ones who are constantly loving. The ones who are loving are able to involve others in everything they do with their love. So whatever the task maybe, they find it to be very easy and are able to accomplish the biggest task with ease. Also each task done by them is with love and so everything is done with lightness and so victory is guaranteed. When we are loving and do everything with love, we constantly experience lightness, based on the blessings from others. We are carefree as there is no heaviness of the task to be performed. Love transforms labour into entertainment. Our internal lightness enables us to do the biggest task with great ease, involving everyone with love.

Have Regards For Others !

Let there be a positive record of always talking with regard. When I have regard for others, there are good wishes expressed through my words. Such words are totally free from the slightest bit of negativity and bring a very positive result. When words are positive, they are few but essenceful. So they have a lot of impact on others. When I have regard for others, I will be able to keep myself free from negative and waste words. So I'll naturally find every word of mine being used in a positive and powerful way. So I find only accumulation and no waste through my words. My energy is saved and others too would have only good wishes for me.

Always See Good Qualities In Others !

When I become excessively critical towards others, it means I am going in the wrong direction. We are usually very good at spotting mistakes, but we should develop the quality of also spotting goodness. If I can see what is good in others or in situations and go beyond the curtain of negativity, I feel good about myself. If I constantly think "he is wrong", I instead create a barrier which blocks me from reaching my own goodness. A very ancient law says: "just as I treat others, I shall be treated by others."

Have Powerful And Positive Thoughts For Others !

Thoughts are like a magic carpet, on which the soul rides across eternity. 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 refreshed by the flow. For when we have powerful, positive thoughts for and about others, who experiences them first?

The Treasure Of Experience !

The biggest treasure of all is the treasure of experience. The one who has the treasure of experience is able to bring benefit to others. He is clear in thinking and accurate in judgment. So he is naturally able to give directions or corrections based on his own experiences and is also successful in it. Also there is equality in what he talks and does. To be an embodiment of experience means to learn from everything that happens. So when we are able to become an embodiment of experience, we are able to feel mastery over every situation that comes our way. The power of our experience enables us to move lightly through all situations.

Mould Yourselves To Make Your Thoughts Easy And Light !

To transform the self means to receive blessings. The one who brings about transformation in the self, learning from all situations, attains victory constantly. He will naturally be able to take the learning from all situations and move on inspite of negative situations. He is also successful in his relationship with others, as he knows to mould himself. When we are able to bring about transformation in ourselves according to time, without just expecting others to change, we are able to get the love and good wishes of all. Because of the ability to mould ourselves, our thoughts too would be easy and light.

Be Stable Even In The Most Difficult Situations !

The power of stability enables to cross over all obstacles. The one who is stable is not influenced by one's own old habits and tendencies to react, but is able to think and act properly under all circumstances. The power of stability brings forth the best decisions in the most difficult times, brings solutions and helps in lessening the impact of the obstacle itself. When we are stable on the seat of a master, we are able to be free from the influence of our old habits, those that are of weakness. Instead we are able to transform old habits into new ones, making them into those of power. Learning to be stable in the most difficult situations, enables us to cross over all obstacles very easily.

See Only Virtues and Specialties In Others !

An ant is tiny beside an elephant but as soon as an ant enters the ear of an elephant it goes crazy. The elephant’s ears are so big, the elephant itself is so big and yet a tiny ant makes it go wild. In the same way, if I allow the slightest defamation of anyone go through my ears, I lose all my spirituality. I lose all my value because I start interacting with others on the basis of what I have heard about them. Pay attention to this! We have to be very, very selective in what we allow to enter our ears. Let me learn to see only virtues and specialities. Let me not concentrate on anyone’s weaknesses.

Be Humble And Forgive Others !

Why is it hard to forgive others? Usually because we believe that they are 90% to blame for the problem, that I am not as bad as they are. So I start to carry the load of other people's actions. If my ego is too hurt, I will have the sense of correction, of justice: 'I know I am right', 'That is not fair'. But if I start to forgive from the heart, sincerely, then this kind of feeling and attitude begins to dissolve. I remain humble and this forgiveness will bring me closer to others. Then I do not carry regrets or anger, I just let go and remain light.

Have A Light And Easy Approach To Life !

As we grow in strength in our spiritual life, we give up the habit of worrying. It serves no purpose other than to make us feel tense and miserable. When I stop fretting about things that are beyond my control and focus instead on generating optimistic and kind thoughts, my life can begin to flow in ever more positive directions. Such a light and easy approach to life enables me to take everything in my stride.

Experience Constant Progress Through Your Own Creation !

To be a creator means to use all treasures for a positive contribution. Even in the most negative situations, the one who has the thought of creation, works towards bettering the situation. Every thought, word and action is towards creation and not towards worsening the situation. Such a person is not concerned about who spoilt the situation or how it got spoilt. To the extent possible, he works towards bettering the situation. When we are working towards creation, we are able to make the best use of our resources and treasures. We then experience constant progress. We also experience contentment of having made a contribution, however little it may be. We have no questions, but only answers under all circumstances.

Honesty Means The Same Inside Out !

Honesty brings success in relationships. Honesty means being the same inside out. Honesty with oneself helps one to bring about constant improvement in the self. Honesty with others enables one to relate positively under all circumstances. There is no rudeness but there is an openness that brings about love towards the other person. When we are honest, we are able to experience progress in our life and others are benefitted too with our self-progress. We are able to maintain harmony in our relationship with others because we are open with them and we find ourselves successful in our relationships.

Keep Yourself Centered In Your Spirituality !

Your need power to remain free from the influence of others. Detachment is this power. If you can't stay detached from influences, you will not be able to keep your thoughts under control. From there it will be a downward spiral until all trace of inner well-being is lost. The first step in detachment is to understand who you are as a spiritual entity. This allows you to 'detach' yourself from your physical identity, and it's world of limited thoughts and feelings, and 'attach' instead to your spiritual personality, the being of inner peace and power. A normal day will be filled with challenges to this detachment. On the one side will be your spiritual awareness, but on the other will be the attraction towards human beings and the material world. Detachment is not a question of becoming separate from the later, but of simply remaining conscious of yourself as a spiritual being whilst being in the world and playing your part. Detachment simply means to keep yourself centered in your spirituality.

Our Problems Have The Potential To Make Us Unshakeable !

If we face our problems and respond to them positively, and refuse to give in to panic, bitterness, or self pity, these adverse situations that look like they could bury us have within them the very real potential to make us unshakeable.

Be Ever Ready To Do All Tasks And Attain Success !

To be ever ready means to guarantee success. The ones who are ever ready are active and so when a task comes up, they quickly understand it and attain success. They do not waste time and energy thinking too much about it. They recognize the importance of the task and involve fully in it and attain success. When we are ever ready we are able to be easy. All tasks seem easy for us and effort put in for the success of the task also becomes easy. So we don't have to do a lot of effort but give our best. Thus we experience success every moment in all situations.

Create A Strong Influence On Others By Your Own Personality !

To recognise the uniqueness of my own personality is to be free from negative influence. The one who is aware of one's own uniqueness is able to create a strong influence on others of his own personality. So, such a person is not negatively influenced by anyone's personality traits. Even when there is a person with a very strong personality, he is still able to be free from negative influence. When we are able to recognise and use the specialities that are within us, we are able to remain powerful within. In all circumstances and with all people we experience this innate power. Because we are constantly in touch with our own specialities, we are able to be light and happy.

Importance Of Self-Knowledge, Self-Realisation And Yoga !

Take Care Of Your Body As Well As Your Mind !

The secret of good health is good nourishment and exercise. We need daily nourishing food and exercise to maintain a healthy body and it takes care and attention to fulfill this responsibility. Making the effort underlines our value and importance as a human being. However, the human spirit needs the same attention in the form of the thoughts we have and how the mind puts them to use. Feeding both body and mind with nourishing food gives a powerful and consistent message to respect and co-operate with one another. This is holistic good health.

Honesty Is More Than What You Think !

Honesty does not mean simply speaking your mind. Honesty means to be very clear about everything going on inside you. Where there is honesty, feelings become pure and clean. Honesty is where there are no other thoughts or feelings inside, other than those that God himself would have. Such clarity is reflected in your words; they will be filled with the power of truth, and spoken with ease and without hesitation. The genuine honesty cultivated within you is what will reach out and touch others.

Spread Your Love !!!

If I limit the love I give to just one or two, it will eventually go stale. If I learn to create love inside my heart and silently give it to everyone I meet, love will grace every corner of my life.

Be In Constant Touch With Oneself And One’s True Nature !

Introversion brings out the positivity within. Every human being has an innate positive nature because of the inherent qualities of love, peace, happiness etc. that are within. Introversion, the practice of looking within, enables one to be in constant touch with oneself and one's true nature. It helps express these qualities in everything that is done. Because of having practiced for a long time with them, these qualities emerge very naturally at the time of need. The practice of being introverted helps us in experiencing those qualities within ourselves, which otherwise remain hidden during difficult situations. Thus it makes us have true self-respect and enables us to finish our ego. It also gives us the power to recognise and accept our mistakes, thus giving the courage to work on them successfully.

Take Good Wishes By Helping Others !

The one who works to remove the sorrow of others is the one who is loved by all. When there is the one aim of helping to remove the sorrow of others, there will be nothing negative while dealing with others. There will also be no expectations from others. Working with the natural desire to bring benefit to as many as possible, enables one to continue to contribute to whatever extent possible. When we are able to have this one desire of helping others be more happy, We are able to make a contribution for others' happiness and progress. We then find that others naturally appreciate our selfless contribution and their good wishes help us feel light and experience progress.

Life Is A Creative Adventure ! Live It With Great Care !

Amazing as it may seem, every event, every scene has some significance.Nothing is without meaning. Life is like a book – each day a new page, each interaction a new paragraph. We read books to learn, so we may grow and become more complete and more effectiv e as we play this game called life. Can you read the book of your life, can you study the scenes of your day, in such a way that you may learn and grow? To get started, take time out to reflect, review and realize something new at least once a day - more often if you can. What was really going on there? What was I feeling at the time? Why? If you do this retrospective processing, eventually you will be able to read each scene with great clarity as it happens. That's when the reader becomes the writer, and life becomes truly a creative adventure, where we are able to see and appreciate the significance and meaning within every scene, and know exactly how to respond.

Sit Quietly And Check Your Own Mind !

Is there some time for yourself today - just for you, to sit quietly and refresh and renew. Not escaping into the TV, or thrashing around a squash court. Just time to sit quietly, focus your thoughts, check your priorities, make sure there is nothing negative pushing you down in your own mind. Take some time and be ...with yourself. If you don't, you may miss meeting the most important person in your life.

Let Off Your Ego !

Whatever is in your heart that is not clean, not true, will ultimately begin to act like a wall, obstructing the natural flow of love. People who say that there is no love in their life, are being blocked by this wall. Actually there is love, but they just cant accept it. Ego is the clearest example of this. Ego limits the flow of love by placing conditions on the love you give and receive. Ego uses love to satisfy its own needs and desires. It produces a love which is deceptive, one which brings only temporary satisfaction. Ego does not allow you to experience true love or share it. If fact, ego is capable of destroying your ability to feel love altogether.

Be Free Of Sadness Very Quickly !

Am I happy? If there is any sadness I make a strong effort to be free of it quickly, otherwise it grows like a vine in the rainy season: by midday I will be confused; by evening a whole jungle of weak, wasteful and negative attitudes will have taken deep roots in my mind. The result equals chaos. Sometimes I reach a stage where the attitude is: "So what if I feel the blues today? It is my life; no one else will be affected". Firstly, the more I allow myself to experience sorrow, the less time I have available to be happy and contented. It sounds ridiculously obvious, but am I aware of the value of happiness? It is an extremely rare commodity, and the cost goes sky high. Secondly, is it my life? Yes, I am living it, but am I not a member of a family or a co-worker with others, and am I not part of society? If so, then every movement affects and is affected by those around me.

Greatness Is Visible In The One Who Is Humble !

Greatness lies in humility. The one who is humble is always willing to learn - from others and situations. So whatever happens a humble person never reacts to the situations, but acts positively whilst being in a stage of self-respect. So there is greatness visible in the one who is humble. Humility brings an experience of being full and complete. So naturally we are available for service, and have always the thought of bringing benefit to as many as possible. Humility also gives an experience of being a master, because no situation or person binds us, but we are able to experience freedom.

See Benefits In Everything !

Never fight. Nothing is worth fighting for. Wisdom never fights, it waits patiently, speaks positively, releases easily, sees benefit in everything and envisions a future of abundance...knowing that all needs will be met at the right moment, in the right way. If you think life is a struggle you will always be struggling, If you think life is a breeze, your attitudes and actions will convey lightness and easiness. And that's what attracts everything you need, and much more. Make today a breeze not a battle.

Be Aware Of Your Specialties And Work With Them !

To be a self-sovereign is to be in control. The one who is a self- sovereign never finds difficulty in being in control. He doesn't have to go out of control and then bring himself back in control. The moment the order is given to the self, every thought, word and action is immediately in order. To be a self-sovereign means to be aware of our specialities and work with them. When we are a self-sovereign we experience ourselves to be free. This is because nothing binds us but we are able to win over our weaknesses too. Thus we find ourselves to be in total happiness in all situations.

Create Quality Thoughts !

Creating quality thoughts brings happiness and lightness. When there is quality thinking, thoughts are not many, but each thought is special. Quality thoughts are reflected in quality words and quality actions. They reduce tiredness and carelessness as thoughts are fewer in quantity. When we have good quality thoughts, we experience sweetness, happiness and self-respect. We are able to recognise our own greatness and move forward with lightness under all circumstances.

Experience The Benefit Of Each And Every Moment !

To be free from the influence of the past is to have the ability to fly forward. There are so many things of the past that keep coming up in the mind again and again. Instead of being like birds holding on to the branches of the past; the one who looks at the clear sky gets the inspiration to move forward. To look at the clear sky means to look at the present moment and make the best use of it. The ability to free ourselves from the negative influences of the past, enables us to have a vision of equality. We will then not be judging others on what our past experiences with them are. We also find ourselves experiencing the benefit of each and every moment and experience constant progress.

Extend Your Love To Everyone !

True love brings success in relationships. The one who is loving, likes to be with the others. Such a person will never try to be away even from people who are not loving towards him, but will be able to change the one who is not so loving with his own love. So the one who is loving is always successful in relationships.

Find Beauty And Harmony Within !

When we look around to examine the state of our environment, which is what we leave behind after developing and exploiting the resources of the planet, many are quick to see pollution and waste. We are not slow in pointing out the damage and the impurities which will be our legacy for the future generations. We are not so quick to spot the impurities which we have allowed to develop and accumulate in our own personal lives. At the level of our thoughts, is every thought a pure and benevolent one, which carries the best wishes for our fellow travellers. Unlikely, as we mostly learn to criticise and complain, attack and blame. At the level of our intentions do we always mean well and want the best for others, or are our intentions sometimes coloured by selfishness or greed? At the level of outcomes do we celebrate the achievements of others as they grow to be all that they can be, or do we stand back in envy or jealousy. Our lives all begin within our own consciousness. The lakes and the landscapes of our mind and intellect are where we all live the most. Do we keep them clean and pure and unspoilt? Can beauty and harmony be found within? No! Then perhaps we need to clean up inside before we condemn others on the outside. Because what is out there is simply a reflection of what is in here! And we are all in it together. Perhaps that is why no one is to blame but we are all responsible.

Check Yourselves To Experience Progress !

The one who checks himself constantly is the one who experiences progress. He is also able to bring about a change in himself. Such a person takes each situation as a chance to learn something new and bring about some change for the better. So there is constant improvement in his life. No situation will make him have negative feelings or make him stop, but he will be able to enjoy everything that comes his way.

Determination Adds Power To Our Thoughts !

To stamp every thought with the stamp of determination is to be victorious. When there is determination in thoughts, there is naturally the ability to give the best in spite of all the obstacles. Situations will not deter such a person from achieving what he set out to. And so there is naturally constant victory for the one who is always determined. When there is determination in our thoughts, we are never afraid, whatever happens. In fact obstacles only serve to strengthen determination. We never give up what we have started. It is determination that enables us to add power to our thoughts and make them practical.

Keep Your Mind Free From Waste Thoughts !

To be free from wants is to be free from waste. The one who is free from wants is the one who is free from expectations. When there are no expectations, there is not too much thought about what is not there or what should be there. Since the mind is free from all these kind of waste thoughts, whatever is done is the best. When we are free from wants or desires, we are able to always remain content. We can then appreciate and enjoy everything that comes our way, and do not expect anything both from situations and people. So the mind is free from waste thoughts and questions.

Make The Best Use Of What You Have !

Speciality lies in experiencing one's fortune. When there is the awareness of one's fortune, there is speciality seen in every word and action, because of wanting to make the best of everything. There is also the pure desire of sharing with others, which also makes one special. When we have the recognition of our own fortune, and are aware of what we have, we find ourselves content. We have no expectations but continue to make the best use of what we already have, for our benefit and that of others. So we find ourselves being special and making our own fortune.

With Silence Listen To The Call Of God !

Silence is not a lack of communication. There is a subtle language that connects us to one another through the eyes, with a smile, or a gesture. In moving into an inner space of silence, we are attuning ourselves to the spirit of nature and letting go of the tendency to be critical. Silence provides the opportunity for me to identify the qualities in myself that have the capacity to transform me. In silence I can connect to the highest quality of my lightest, clearest thinking. In silence I can listen to the call of God, the call of nature, the call of others in need.

Powerful Soul Offers Love !

Only a powerful soul can offer love. Only a powerful soul can afford to be humble. If we are weak, then we become selfish. If we are empty, we take, but if we are filled, we automatically give to all. That is our nature.

Let Your Words Reflect Purity And Peace !

A pure mind makes for pure words. It is said that speech may exalt someone to kingship or send him to the gallows. I should never let myself indulge in false, bitter and vicious speech. My words should reflect my true, inner nature, that of purity and peace. Words, once spoken, can never be recalled. They reverberate all around, beyond our control. Today, as I utter words, what effect will they have on those who hear them? Will they be the words that are poisonous and cause pain? Or will my tongue be like that of the nightingale, sweet and so, so very soothing and lovely to the ear?


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Mental Calmness Makes Words Calm !

Words! They are all around me! I see them. I use them. Harsh words, soothing words, biting words; words that give pain and sorrow; words that give joy and pleasure. They are vital to communication. When words are spoken there are reactions, negative or positive. Either thoughts are triggered or emotions fired or actions performed. Words colour our behaviour. And how lovely it is to hear words that are calm and free from rancour and aggression. To hear words that lift the soul and leave it with renewed vigour. Such words are the sparks of purity. It is important to remember that my speech indicates what is in my mind. As the thinking, so the words uttered. Mental calmness makes my words calm.

Be Humble ! Trust God !

Humility puts a hand out to nothing extra, but simply takes what's there. Whether that be food or clothing or understanding. Sometimes there is a lot available and sometimes only a little. It doesn't matter. Even when you understand nothing, there is no worry, for in humility there is the trust that if a person feels themselves to be a child of God, everything will come anyway at the right time.

Make Your Dreams Come True !

Why have we forgotten how to dream? With our innocence gone, and the entertainment industry doing all the work for us, we quickly lose our capacity to dream possible futures. Stop. Close your eyes. And dream again. Put the stars in your dreams. And then reach for them. No need to struggle. Simply nurture the dream, sustain the vision, and watch it come true. It must, it's the law.

Become Unshakeable With God’s Power !

Nothing around us is constant. The stock markets go up and down; natural resources alternate between abundance and scarcity; people move between happiness and sadness. If we fluctuate with those scenes we are unable to be constant internally. But when we turn to the One who is permanently radiating virtues, we receive power and become unshakeable. God offers all His potential to us. He is ever constant in being the light that never fades.

Handle Every Difficult Situation With Patience !

The energies of life come to meet us at every moment. Most come from other people who either in the same room or on the flickering, technicolour screens with which we now share most of our homes. The vast majority of these energies are not positive. So how do we handle the 'the negatives', whether it's someone's attitude, their hurtful gestures or our daily dose of world violence and mayhem. There are three cardinal rules. First, do not absorb it - don't be an emotional sponge. Second do not reflect it back. Otherwise you begin a cycle of emotional exchanges which may last a long time. And third, do the one thing which marks us as intelligent human beings - transform it. Even if the scene is a disaster there is some benefit somewhere in it. Even if you are watching two peoples beliefs or opinions slug it out to the edge of violence don't take sides. Instead offer a solution then stand well back. Even if the person hates you, accept their state of being and return the light of love. In time, with patience, it will illuminate their darkness, and return to you by the bucketful! Just wait.

Humility Is The Most Natural Expression Of Truth !

Humility means to understand the self and through that to understand others as well. Humility is the attitude where a person is not attached to his or her opinion and feelings. Humility is the most natural expression of truth. It helps in better understanding of truth. Humility is the basis for maintaining self-respect. Humility does not mean bowing down and being subservient to others. Humility allows you to see benefit in everything. Developing humility brings a lot of comfort and ease into your life.

Successful People Are Go Givers !

It’s been said that you cannot give away what you do not have. One of the most spiritual important insights or secrets in life is that you already have, and always have had, what you need to give away! If you impart the message that ‘I am not worthy’ the universe will send it straight back in many shapes, forms and circumstances. When we say ‘give me’ we are imparting this message. We are saying we think we need to get something to complete ourselves or prove our worth. Most of us are taught to live a life of gimmie gimmie gimmie – always striving, desiring, wanting, struggling. We do so only because we think that when we get what we want we will be fulfilled and esteemed by others. But it’s an illusion. We are all already complete and worthy but we cannot know it and experience it, until we give it away! Only giving allows us to know what we are and what we have within. Ask the question – how can I serve? The intention to serve will point you towards what you need to give. If the intention is real it also generates the will. The most successful people in life are not go getters, but go givers!

Be A Master And Yet Open To Learning !

To give regard to others' ideas is to be a learner. The one who is open to the ideas of others is the one who is able to learn from everything. He is humble and has respect for all. He has the authority over what he does, he is the master and is yet open to learning. Even when his best plan and ideas are rejected or criticised, he is able to remain cool and light because of his regard for others and their ideas. Because of this he is able to constantly learn and experience progress.

Happiness Is Your Property !

No matter what adverse situations come in front of you, no matter how many obstacles come in front of you, your happiness should not disappear. An obstacle that comes will also go away. That obstacle comes and goes away but what belongs to you should not go. So, happiness is your property. Whenever an obstacle comes, just think that it has come to go away. When a guest comes to your home, it isn't that he has come as a guest and will go away having taken everything from your home. So an obstacle has come and it will go away but it should not take away your happiness. Happiness should always remain with you.

Understand Your Mind And Treat It Properly !

When you talk to yourself in your mind, which self do you address? And how? Usually people do not talk to their divinity, but to the most superficial aspects of their everyday personality. And often it’s a stream of fears, complaints and mindless repetition of old things. If we talked that way to another human being, we would have to apologise. Learning to talk properly to the self is a spiritual endeavour. Thoughts from the past and worries about the future do not create good conversation. Instead learn to talk to your mind as if it were a child. Talk to it with love. If you just force a child to sit down, he won't. A good mother knows how to prompt her child into doing what she wants. Be a good mother to your mind, teach it good, positive thoughts so that when you tell it to sit quietly, it will. Love your mind. Stay happy.

Do Right Things To Experience Constant Success !

Success is achieved through accurate efforts. The one who puts in accurate efforts for the success of every task, naturally tries to do the best. Because of his own contribution, others too help him and contribute whatever they can to achieve what he sets out to do. So there is success in everything. When we do the right thing, we will be able to experience constant self-progress. We will then never have the slightest feeling of failing, but will always experience success as a right, even if the result is not what we have expected. We experience positive feelings because of having put in the right effort.

Sow Positive Thoughts !

If we plant a positive, clean seed of thoughts and concentrate on it, we give it energy, like the sun gives to a seed in the earth. And as the seed in the earth awakens, stirs and begins to grow, the thoughts on which we concentrate awaken, stir and begin to grow. So let us sow positive thoughts. Each morning before we begin the journey of the day let us sit still, in silence, and sow the seed of peace. Peace is harmony and balance. Peace is - freedom from the burden of negativity and wastefulness. Let peace find its home within us. Peace is our original strength, our eternal tranquility of being.

Bring In Lightness Through Accurate Words !

Lightness comes when words are accurate. Accurate words means there is nothing extra spoken. Whatever has to be said is said to the point. Such words being short are sweet to hear too and are those that never hurt others. They bring about the result needed accurately. When our words are to the point, there is a lot of lightness experienced within us and our physical energy is saved too. Others too experience benefit through our words and so we naturally get blessings from them, which helps us move forward with lightness.

Experience Constant Progress !

To have attention to accumulate is to experience constant progress. The one who has the attention to accumulate each and every moment makes sure that he uses well his treasures like thoughts, time etc. Then, there would never be anything waste or even ordinary. Instead each treasure would be used for the benefit of all. Having attention to accumulate makes us realise the importance of whatever we have. This makes us pay attention on even little things and we find ourselves benefiting from each moment and with each thing that happens. Thus we experience constant progress.
