Get Yourself into the Early Years & Refresh !

Regularly make time to de-tech. 

Switch off the phone, laptop, TV. 

Unplug from all the electronic and digital technology. 

Now breathe and relax. 

Tune into your inner space and experience inner peace. 

Enjoy solitude and refresh your energy.

Powers That Recharge The Soul - Part 2

The Power to Discriminate

Like  the trained eye of a jeweller who discriminates the real from the  imitation, I can discriminate what is true and what is false.

The Power to Face

Nothing seems like an obstacle, but rather a stepping stone to victory. To lack this power means to be dominated by external dramas.

The Power to Cooperate

I do not feel like I am competing against anyone, but rather I am helping all. Here, the surrender of ego is needed.

The Power to Withdraw

I can withdraw from the organs of the body, and become the seed; detached, and the observer of this drama of life. Contentment comes.

Powers That Recharge The Soul - Part 1

These are powers that recharge the soul. As the soul comes into action, it experiences the practical form of these powers. 

The Power To Pack Up 

In a second I can pack up all wasteful thinking, so the soul becomes light and free of burdens and worries.

The Power To Tolerate 

Irritation and annoyance disappear, and nothing disturbs my light frame of mind. The fragrance of this power is attractive to all.

The Power to Accommodate

Like the ocean that merges all that flows into it, I merge all that happens; so past is past, and the future seems clear and bright.

The Power of Judgement

I can accurately assess any situation with clarity and confidence

Discover Yourself & Use your Brilliance !

We might not be brilliant at everything, but we have virtues and an inner brilliance. 

However, it's most most likely that these virtues are lying dormant, at the core of our being. 

Tap into your brilliance by creating time to discover and experience your virtues. 

Then develop your inner brilliance by activating and using your virtues in action. 

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu

Concentrate on Positive Thoughts & Feel the Change !!

When you choose to carry the past around, life weighs heavy. 

There's equally too much baggage when you hold on to the uncertainty of tomorrow.

To travel light and enjoy the journey, consolidate all that you've learned from the past and let the rest go. 

Then focus all your energy in the NOW.

Instead of beginning to change things and situations that are going wrong, I need to work at the seed, i.e my thoughts. 

I need to keep my thoughts positive under all circumstances, which will make my actions positive too and I slowly find things changing for the better. 

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu

Start Your Day with Positive Note !

Develop the habit of getting up early and sitting in silence. 

Read a peaceful thought and reflect on it. 

Write down some ideas about this thought. 

Return to silence, allowing these ideas to take root inside you. 

Share your ideas with a person close to you. 

This practice will help you accept and cope with conflicts and difficult situations. It will help you stay happy and peaceful for the rest of the day. 

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu.

Try to Find the Positiveness Around You !!

The positive is there, in everything. 

All you need to do is simply look for it!

In every person, the best is there; your opportunity is to recognize it. In every problem, the solution is there; your responsibility is to provide it. In every setback, the success is there; your adventure is to discover it. In every crisis, the reason is there; your challenge is to understand it.

Make it a goal this week is to find it. 

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu

Be Good & Connect With Life !!

Today, when human beings seek love, meaning and purpose, they first connect horizontally (with others) rather than vertically (with the Supreme Source). This leads to a greater loss of energy and eventually dissatisfaction and emptiness. 

The vertical connection liberates the self from becoming dependent on someone else and from having too many expectations. After the vertical connection, there can then be the horizontal connection with others, that is, with the outside or external. 

No matter how bad people may seem, they possess at least one virtue. 

Be like the humming bird and pick out the sweetness of everyone's character.

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu

Keep Flowing In Life & Enjoy The Adventures !!

Drops of water gather to become a small stream, 

the stream grows to become a river, 

the river passes through many stages, 

many obstacles, and yet it keeps on flowing. 

Life too flows like a river. 

And like the river, the purpose of life is the adventure of the journey, 

not the destination.

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu.

Be Pure & Happy to Enjoy The Benefits !!

My heart is full and open. 

Flowing with pure good feelings and good wishes for everyone. 

I follow my spontaneous instinct to give and I am totally happy. 

There is a part of you that is perfect and pure. 

It is untouched by the less-than-perfect characteristics 

you have acquired by living in a less than perfect world. 

This part of you is a still and eternal star. 

Make time to reach it and this will bring you untold benefit. 

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu 

Enhance Your Beliefs & See The Change !!

Each belief we hold carries a magnetic field that draws a similar energy towards us. 

The more conviction we have that a belief is true, the more powerful its magnetic pull.

If we believe we are lucky, we attract good fortune. 

Our worst fears & greatest hopes magnetically attract those experiences to us. 

Today, let's challenge the beliefs we hold about ourselves. 

~  Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu

Love Self & You Will Automatically Love Others !

You're the most important person in your life, 

So fall in love with yourself! How? 

By appreciating the best in you - your qualities, your inner beauty.

If you don't love you how do you expect others to love you? 

And when you love yourself, 

you're able to love others unconditionally. 

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu

Erase the Need to Please Others.... !!

Erase the Need to Please Others. 

Are you a people pleaser in the workplace? If you are, you might be taking on more work than you should. You might also find yourself avoiding the hard conversations because you don't want to rock the boat. Imagine how different you'll be in the workplace, if you were to stop being a people pleaser?

Instead of expecting others to be the source of your self worth; take responsibility for how you feel, understand how you work best and recognise the value you bring to your work situation.  

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu.

Doing One Thing At Time Helps To Keep A Clear Mind !!

How often do you forget where you've put your wallet, keys ...?

Or do you can't remember if you've locked the door or left the iron on?

Is it because you can't keep your mind on what you're doing? 

Are your thoughts wandering off because there are many others things on your mind? 

Here's a tip: Mono-task. Just do one thing at a time. 

                      Be present and focus on what you are doing

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu

Keep Giving..... It Can Be Precious At Times ... !!!

Compared to the ocean, a single raindrop seems insignificant, ridiculously small and inconsequential. 

But in the thirsty desert, a single raindrop is precious, life-giving and vitally important. Is your world an ocean of peace or a desert? 

Even though you are only a single drop, every drop counts. To give something when and where it is needed is what really counts. 

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu

Inner Peace - Use It in Difficult Situations !

Peace is found within but not outside. 

We are peaceful beings but external situations pull us away from our peace if we let them. When there is not a very positive situation that we are confronted with, we need to save ourselves from the pull of the outside situation and rely on the peace within. Every morning practice being a peaceful being who is totally in charge of yourself. When you make this practice firm when difficult situations do come you will be able to rely more on your internal peace instead of getting carried away by the external situations. 

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu

Try to Get Solutions, Instead of Sitting On the Problems !

Stay in constant peace by becoming an embodiment of solutions. 

Situations do bring a lot of challenges for us, but where there is fear or worry while facing them, there cannot be peace. As long as we continue looking at the problem instead of searching for solutions we cannot remain in peace. Think of some problem that you are thinking a lot about. Now see if you can find a solution for it. If you feel you cannot, it is better to leave thinking about it rather than to worry about it. When you keep the mind free in this way, you will get the solutions automatically. 

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu 

Give Your Thoughts The Power of Determination !

You need the power of determination to bring thought into practice. 

We do have a number of thoughts that we would like to put into practice. Most of the times it doesn't happen that way and they remain merely thoughts. It is necessary to strengthen such thoughts with the power of determination and you will be able to make them practical. Think of something that you wanted to do but could not bring into practice. Now take this thought once again and see why it is important for you to bring it into practice. Once you understand this you will be able to be determined to put it into practice. 

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu

Changing is not Impossible... !!

Never believe anyone who says you cannot change, or that you should not tamper with your personality. 

The truth is, you are already changing numerous times every day. And it is never too late to contemplate a change in personality, which simply means changing the way you see and respond to people and the world around you. It is up to you. 

You can either live with the pain that is known as stress - it's what most people do because it seems the easiest way to live - or you set off on the adventure of self-discovery. This is not some New Age fashion. 

Every time you change one of your old habits, of creating pain as a response to life, it will be one more step towards enjoying a riper old age. If you want to live a long and healthy life, kill your stress and your pain with truth, before it kills you!

~   Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu

Be Your Own Coach & Move To Your Vision !

Just as sports coaches help players visualize their goals and victory, in the same way, if you want to create a winning strategy, create a positive vision of yourself and visualize your success.
 

Be a self coach and:
 

- regularly and effectively assess your personal development
 

- focus on and enhance that which is positive
 

- instead of beating yourself up for every mistake and failure, practise positive self talk.
