Silence Heals - Positive Quotes.

Silence heals. Silence is like a mirror. Everything is clear. The mirror does not blame or criticize but helps me to see things as they are, releasing me from all types of wrong thinking. Silence revives the original peace of the self – a peace that is innate, divine and when invoked ever-flowing.

Deep Silence

A stage of deep silence is a stage free from desires. Since desires cannot be eliminated completely, there should be only one desire, which replaces all other desires – that is the link with the Supreme. Desire that I want to experience the highest bliss. I want to realize myself. It is desire that motivates us to action – mental or physical. Even my effort for attaining that stage of silence must be born from the desire to realize my original state – one of silence.

Silence is an Opportunity.

Silence is an opportunity to rest in the lap of my own greatness. You must remember to care for yourself with special attention you would accord to any great soul. Silence is an inner space of learning. When I do not understand something, I continue to hold on to it. When learning has occurred, I can release it and move on. Silence is a discipline, not of doing, but of being.

In silence I can listen to the call of God, the call of nature, the call of others in need. When I elevate my thoughts to a higher level of consciousness, I maybe looking at the word, but my inner experience is of connection with God. So my vision a benediction, a blessing, a silent current good wishes and spiritual power.

Silence is Not Lack of Communication.

Silence is not lack of communication. This is a subtle language that connects us to one another through the eyes, with a smile, or a gesture. The language of the soul is the language of the eyes. Fluency in this subtle language calls for our ability to observe the small details of life. As we develop this subtle language, we find that we are less dependent on the mechanical device that can connect us but that can also make us feel more separate. “Dhristi” : The vision of love and good wishes one soul has for another.

Appreciate Higher Power

When I appreciate the Higher Power, the truth, myself as well as other human beings then, in effect I have made the commitment to transforming my life. Appreciating others, appreciating nature, appreciating my fortune, the blessings of circumstances, the value in the lessons of life (especially those that appear to be painful and of loss) is the result of understanding the secrets of this eternal drama of life. Appreciate what you see now and that becomes an eternal moment; disapprove of it and you kill it. Appreciate each second in this way, and then your life will be filled with unlimited moments of beauty and love.

Appreciation, Acknowledgement & Acceptance.

The opposite of appreciation would be disapproval and depreciation - of the soul! Who has the right to comment on and change the script that has been written for every soul? When I start to question, doubt, criticise, complain and correct, then I am not in full appreciation of the Drama of Life, the Director or the actors. If I appreciate my own efforts, the efforts that other people make and the workings of the natural world, then I will continually have respect. Appreciation, acknowledgement and acceptance validate and empower people and allow them to move ahead with confidence.

Appreciating Value

By appreciating all that is happening within us and around us, in reality this joy takes on the form of a living virtue, of pure character and righteous actions. It does not mean idolizing or pretending that things are different from what they really are, but it means taking the time to see another perspective - the other side of the coin, seeing something of benefit and illuminating oneself.

It can signify awareness and understanding of and can express recognition of the value or significance of something. Finally, it means an increase in value.

See Through God’s Eyes...

You have to see through God’s eyes and feel through God’s heart, to appreciate the value of every soul, including yourself. Even if another soul seems a world apart from you, you will be able to find a bridge.

Self Respect...

Self-respect is often mistaken for arrogance when in reality it is the opposite. When we can recognize all our good qualities as well as or faults with neutrality, we can start to appreciate ourselves as we would a dear friend and experience the comfortable inner glow of respect. To embrace the journey towards our full potential we need to become our own loving teacher and coach. Spurring ourselves on to become better human beings we develop true regard for ourselves and our life will become sacred.

Humility Brings Excellence.

Humility brings excellence. Humility means there is no expectation of being perfect always. So whatever is done comes naturally. There is no feeling of threat about others' opinion, but the one who is humble is able to express inner talent without any fear and expectations. So humility takes one forward towards excellence: When I am humble, I am able to stabilise myself in my state of self-respect always. This naturally is felt even when I am not able to bring perfection in my actions or even when others are not satisfied with me. Internally there is a feeling of satisfaction, knowing that I am constantly learning and moving forward.

Positive Thoughts - Humility.

The magic potent for mixing and matching Sanskaars or personality traits is the precious virtue of HUMILITY. Humility brings harmony in relationships. When there is humility there is the ability to understand and relate to others. There is an acceptance of the other person as he is. There is no pressure on the other person to change according to one's own personality, but there is the ability to provide an environment for the other person's growth. When I am humble, I am able to see and relate to others with their specialities. I do not think about what I have given to the relationship, nor do I expect anything from the relationship. But I continue to enjoy and appreciate what I get. So this keeps me positive even when the personalities don't match.

Pope John Paul II Near Death...

A request to all to join the Brahma Kumaris worldwide in sending powerful vibrations of peace to Pope John Paul II

Pope John Paul II Near Death
Pontiff's Heart and Kidneys Said to Be Failing
By VICTOR L. SIMPSON, AP

VATICAN CITY (April 1) - Pope John Paul II was near death Friday, his breathing shallow and his heart and kidneys failing, the Vatican said. Millions of faithful around the world knelt, crawled on their knees, bowed their heads and lit candles to pray for the 84-year-old pontiff.

''This evening or this night, Christ opens the door to the pope,'' Angelo Comastri, the pope's vicar general for Vatican City, told a crowd at St. Peter's Square, where up to 70,000 people prayed and stood vigil in the chilly night. Many tearfully gazed at John Paul's third-floor window, wrapping themselves in blankets.

The Vatican said Friday morning that John Paul was in ''very grave'' condition after suffering blood poisoning from a urinary tract infection the previous night, but that he was ''fully conscious and extraordinarily serene'' and declined to be hospitalized.

By Friday night, the pope's condition had worsened further, and he was suffering from kidney failure and shortness of breath but had not lost consciousness as of 9:30 p.m., the Vatican said.

Cardinal Javier Lozano Barragan, the Vatican's health minister, told Mexico's Televisa dal Vaticano that the pope ''is about to die.''

''I talked to the doctors and they told me there is no more hope,'' the Mexican cardinal told the television channel.
As word of his condition spread across the globe, special Masses celebrated the pope for transforming the Roman Catholic Church during his 26-year papacy and for his example in fearlessly confronting death.In Wadowice, Poland, people left school and work early and headed to church to pray for their native son.

''I want him to hold on, but it is all in God's hands now,'' said 64-year-old Elzbieta Galuszko at the church where the pope was baptized. ''We can only pray for him so he can pull through these difficult moments.''

Becoming a Role Model...Positive Quotes

I find that the support and the cooperation comes very naturally and easily. So nothing is difficult for me as I am able to pool in everyone's resources without having to say anything.

Receive Blessings, Good Wishes from Others

To see specialities is to receive blessings. Sometimes people are not able to use their specialities. But even at such times if one has the ability to see their specialities there is the ability to give courage and enthusiasm to them. One can provide them with such an environment that allows their own growth. So whatever the circumstances may be, there is progress. When I am able to see the positive aspect of others, I can keep my mind free from a major portion of negativity. The potential of my thoughts can be used fully for my own inner progress and I can therefore make a contribution for the others too. This earns me blessings and good wishes from others, which further enhances my own progress.
