Mind : Our Best Friend Or Our Worst Enemy!

It is said that the mind can be your best friend or your worst enemy. At every moment we have the opportunity to choose our company; thoughts which bring oxygen to the spirit or those who bring pain. If I am loyal to myself, I will continually strive to go back to my inner core of positivity. Again and again, I will be patient and loving, and increasingly my mind will reside in this positive inner truth. When I am able to be loving and loyal to myself, I can then help others in this same unconditional manner.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Open Your Mind!

The mind is like a parachute - it works best when it is open. How quickly we make assumptions, jump to conclusions and close our mind. How easily we form and hold fast to our opinions and then close our mind. How fast do we make a judgment, slap on a label and then close our mind. A closed mind never knows the delight of playing with possibilities, being enlightened by others point of view or enjoying the diversity of human life. An open and understanding mind never assumes, doesn't jump to conclusions and won't hold fast to any opinion. Perhaps it is no wonder a closed mind is not a very relaxed mind.

Help The World To Live In Peace!

Your thoughts guide you to your destiny. If you always do what you have always done, you will always get what you have always got. If you always think the same you will always get to the same place. Think in a new way and you will be a new person. Give happiness to all and you will live in peace. Create peace in your mind and you will create a world of peace around you.

~Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Have Faith In Oneself.

When we are confronted with a difficult problem, we sometimes get dejected, lose faith in those things that sustained us, lose faith in the self. Our speech patterns may change, emotions are jagged and our actions are questionable. We become unstable - quite different from what we would like to be. If we remain stable in the remembrance of our true identity, if we always keep in front of us the image of our more elevated form and we understand that we are masters of our own fortune or misfortune(as you sow so shall you reap) obstacles will never shake us. If we are fortified from the inside, in face of the outside happenings we remain ever stable, ever secure, ever sure.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Purity Reflects Our Inner Strength

Purity means the complete control over mind, speech, body and action. One's appearance, personality and impressions at any time or anywhere should be leaving positive aura or vibrations by natural means. Simply purity means staying soul-conscious mentally, physically as well as actionably.

Relationship is like a tapestry.

A relationship is like a tapestry. The fabric is strongest where the threads that hold it together are spun of openness, love and trust.

Nature Keeps On Changing!

Nature has order, happiness and sorrow each in their own time. Knowing that all things move in cycles can give hope that what is uncomfortable now may soon change.

Develop Godly Eyes!

Visualize God as one who is pleased to see you. Then greet others with godly eyes, as if you are meeting long-lost and now-found family. Such good wishes can transform any relationship.

Start Each Day With A Positive Attitude!

Make an appointment with yourself at the beginning of each day. When you start with a moment of solitude, even the most crowded of schedules runs more smoothly.

Face Your Problems!

Our society encourages distraction and evasion as a means to experience happiness. But actually this takes you far away from yourself and just postpones dissatisfaction. The true solution is to concentrate on what nourishes the spirit and give you life.

Talking To Yourself!

Learning to talk properly to the self is a spiritual endeavor. When you make a mistake, do you talk lovingly to yourself in your mind, or do you tell yourself off? One habit recognizes your divinity, the other subtly shapes a nature of sorrow.

Love of God !

Love of God is to our consciousness like a string to a high-flying kite. When the connection is strong, we are free to rise to any height.

Filtering Your Mind!

A clean intellect is like the mind's filter, sorting out thoughts of value from those of waste, enabling you to put into action only the valuable.

A War Sure To Win!

Spirituality seeks to achieve peace of MIND. If we acquire a taste for this, then very little can shake us from that inner throne of peace? Spirituality, is a gentle reminder, that since wars begins in the minds of men; it is there that they need to be resolved. Until and unless one has had an experience of Mercy and Love, then it is hard to go beyond violence. When we begin to explore and discover our innate powers of Peace and Love and the Joy they bring, only then do we discard the path of aggression or violence. We can now exercise full inner control and this is the war we have been longing to win!

Violence Hampers Growth!

Violence is a weakness in the soul; an act of selfishness, self-centered and uncompassionate behavior. It reflects a person or nation or world that has not matured, and is not willing to live its innate, original, highest potential.

Our Actions Depict Our Personality!

As you do, so you become. Every action that you perform is recorded in you, the soul. These imprints ultimately mould your character and destiny. When you understand this principle, you will pay more attention to bringing your best to everything you do.

Meditation Enriches Your Mind With Good Thoughts!

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.

Understanding God!

The easiest way to meditate on God is to picture him as light shining with love, a being who knows the beginning, the middle and the end of your eternal journey through time, understands everything, and accepts you as you are.

Spirituality Is Superior Than Physical Identity!

Your physical identity is a world of limited thoughts, feelings and roles. It is quite apart from the being of inner peace and power that is your spiritual personality.

In Search Of Peace!

The mind that tries to rest only on the surface of things will be tossed about in every storm. Dive deeper, to where there peace is.
