Think About Everlasting Happiness !

It is true that there is much suffering in the world. But do we need to worry about it? If we focus on the negative, that drains us of the strength to help. Goodness and truth are also at work in our world, as well as darker forces. When I switch on my awareness of positive qualities common to humanity, it is like bringing light into the darkness. The past stops haunting me and I stop worrying about the future. I see more clearly what I need to do now, for lasting happiness and health.

Internal Simplicity Is Very Important !

When there is internal simplicity, we are able to give our best to everything we do. Our thoughts, words and actions are filled with power. We become a source of inspiration to those around us and they take something from us for their own benefit. Let me have one simple thought for myself, 'whatever I do, people are going to do the same. So with the help of this thought we can bring elevatedness in our actions and words too. We then understand that like an actor on stage we need to have natural attention on what we speak and what we do.

Experience the Feelings of Peace !

Why do you like sunsets so much? Because they take you beyond your physical dimension. You experience peace and silence. You sense that time stops, and you understand what eternity means. It awakens your dormant spirituality. Whenever you have the chance, sit in front of a sunset and relax. Do not analyze. Only watch and observe and let profound feelings of peace emerge.

The True Essence Of Life !

Knowing the self and knowing God brings light into the darkness, and brings love back into our lives whereby we can reach out to others. The world will change when we are able to share this Godly light and this endless love.   When I know myself I can really meet others. My vision will not be disturbed by our differences but I will recognise the same essence in others.

Unshakeable Love And Faith In God Gives You Strength !

Faith means that there isn't the slightest form of doubt in any situation or at times of obstacles. Situations have to change and they will continue to change. The supports that your faith has now will be removed, and even after that your foundation has to be strong. If your foundation is not strong, then supports are necessary. Therefore you need to maintain your peaceful, lovable state and your love and faith for God has to remain unshakeable.

Conversation With God As A Personal Experience !

Whether you believe in God or not is not important. The main thing is to keep an open mind, and be willing to start the conversation. The experience of so many people is that when they engage in a mental conversation, whether it's with a question or simply sharing what is in their heart, they get a reply. This is God as a personal experience, not just a voice in your head. Not your higher self. But the presence of the Source in your life. God is not a concept, or a belief. You cannot have a conversation with a concept. You cannot have a meaningful relationship with a belief. Worth a try?

Enthusiasm Is The Spirit Of Life !

Without enthusiasm life becomes a dry and tasteless experience. Anyone can become enthusiastic for a little while but to keep enthusiasm steadily flowing through our life is a great art. The secret is remarkably simple; live in a state of appreciation; appreciate the special qualities within everyone; appreciate the wonder of nature and give thanks to the cycle of life and everyone's contribution to it. Enthusiasm is infectious, especially when it is based on an appreciation of, and love for life itself.

Meditation Brings Positive Thoughts To Mind !

Meditation simply means the management of your thoughts. It is to have the ability to think of what you want and when you want, without interference from other thoughts. Meditation is to develop the ability to concentrate on a particular subject without being attracted and influenced by the five senses, the five vices and the five elements.

Get Inspired By God’s Teachings !

In Child Psychology, there is a concept called 'identity crisis' often associated with teenagers; as they move into adulthood they sometimes become perplexed with life: what are they to do in the future, are they are mere images or extensions of their parents and family, what is their identity as a human being etc.   If they do 'find themselves' they carve their own niche, and are able to achieve their goals.  If not, they go on with life nonetheless but with a constant inner search.   The biggest gift God gives us is to know and love ourselves honestly.  That knowledge that we are spirits, souls, and practice of soul-consciousness outweighs any other spiritual teaching in the world.

Satisfaction Is The Utmost Happiness!

Many believe that happiness is achieved through material wealth. It is true that it gives a temporary sense of well being. A rich person is not someone who has more but someone who desires less. Happiness is the result of total appreciation of all that life gives you at every moment.

Use Of Powerful Resources 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.

Opening Our Mind For 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.

A Clear And Happy Mind Clears All The Problems !!!

If our mind is still enough, we can see the deeper meaning behind each situation. No matter how bad a problem may seem on the surface, if we remain positive eventually we will see how everything has worked out for the best.

 

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

 

 
When we combine the power of self-belief with pure motives there is very little we cannot achieve. Using this power wisely to bring benefit to everyone in our lives, we can rest assured that everything we need will steadily flow our way.

Inner Truth Is Important For The Positivity In Life !

If we obey the principle of pure love, our life will always go in the right direction. Altruistic (unselfish) and unconditional love is pure and comes from our inner truth. When we are obedient to that inner truth, our life becomes a joyful dance.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

 
Learning to enjoy the present moment and give our best, no matter what the situation, protects us from becoming jaded in life. If our stamina begins to diminish, we remind ourselves to enjoy whatever we do and pour love into every task, then our energy will be replenished.

Open Yourself To Reach Your Full Potential !!!

If we allow bitterness and resentment to fester inside, it will make my relationships guarded and unsatisfying. The more we close down to others, the more we become a stranger to ourselves. By letting go of sorrow and negativity, we can keep our nature open and loving. Remaining open to life, with its constant adventures and opportunities to grow, is the only way to reach our full potential.

Spirituality Leads To Satisfaction And Compassion !

As we mature spiritually there is less need to have our self-respect bolstered by praise and special attention. As our thought processes become more compassionate and less self-obsessed, we feel increasingly satisfied with ourselves and or lives. We relate to people more easily and feel no need to draw attention to our successes or complain about our problems.

Inspirational Quote On Humility !

A person of wisdom and spirituality has very beautiful manners that have grown from genuine respect and love for the whole humanity. Manners in this sense have nothing to do with culture or education; it is simply a question of humility. When we are at the receiving end of such manners, we feel that some deeper part of us has been honoured. In fact, none of us deserves anything less.

Spreading Love Helps to Create A Loving Attitude !

Everyone wants to be loved for who they are. When we appreciate others fully it boosts their self-esteem and helps them pass on a loving attitude to others. Even though we may not see the results immediately; love always works.

Helping Others Selflessly !

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.
