Enrich Your Own Life By Spreading The Fragrance Of Your Virtues !

The one who is constantly spreading the fragrance of virtues is a spiritual rose. When there is constant awareness of being a spiritual rose, there is an awareness of the internal virtues too. So there is an expression of these virtues in all words and actions. Others are able to perceive and take benefit from these internal specialities, and this fragrance spreads around to others too. When we are able to keep ourselves connected with our specialities, we are able to experience the inner beauty. Like a rose, we keep spreading the fragrance of our virtues to all we come into contact with. So we are also able to get the love, good feelings and good wishes from everyone, thus enriching our own life.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Have Respect For Ourselves But No Ego !

To consider oneself a trustee is to use all treasures well. When there is the awareness of being a trustee of God, there is not only recognition but also good use of the internal treasures. These internal treasures are of virtues and specialities. All these are used wisely and well. Such a person is able to be loving and detached at the same time. When we have the consciousness of being a trustee, we are able to look within and get in touch with our own internal treasures. It gives us the consciousness of having respect for ourselves without developing any ego. We have no negative feelings when these treasures are not used or when situations demand more than what we feel we have.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Take Up Responsibility And Experience Constant Progress !

To take up responsibility is to be free from guilt. When there is the ability to take up responsibility, everything is done to one's best ability. So no mistakes happen, hence there is no guilt. Even when things go wrong the one who takes up responsibility does something to correct the situation. So such a person is also free from guilt. When we are able to take up responsibility for everything that happens in our lives, we are able to experience constant progress. So when big challenges come our way, instead of being afraid, we are able to remain positive and stable. This further keeps us away from guilt.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Use Available Resources For Personal Growth And Benefit Of Others !

To be enthusiastic is to be light constantly. The one who is enthusiastic looks for challenges and excuses for self-improvement. He is constantly moving forward in the most challenging situations. He uses all the available resources for personal growth and the benefit of others. His words and actions induce enthusiasm in others too. When he never let go of his enthusiasm in every moment of his life, he is able to be constantly light. This enables him to enjoy this moment, and ensures that he use it to the maximum for making his future better and bright. He also becomes a source of light for those around where they are able to take inspiration to make the best use of what they have.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Flow Is Accepting Things And Putting Them To Good Use Before Passing It On !

Everything that comes to us, comes to pass or, more accurately, for us to pass on. Not just the money in our pocket, but wisdom, objects, ideas, even opportunities, all come to us, so that, at the right moment, we can pass them on. This is called flow. Being in the flow means being aware that the river of life is flowing to us at every moment. Being in the flow means accepting whatever comes and putting it to good use, before passing it on. Going with the flow means allowing whatever comes to move on freely, without holding on in any way. If we do not pass on, we are trying to block the flow, and that's when we feel pressure in our life. Pressure is always self-inflicted. Every time you feel 'under pressure' look at what you need to release and to pass on to someone else. Once you do you can ...relax...again.



~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Get Best Potential In Others By Having Faith In Them !

Faith in others wins cooperation from them. When we are working together, we need to have faith in the capabilities of those working with us by seeing their specialities and using them too. This will naturally create a healthy environment where everyone is working together as a team. One thought that would help us in practical situations to work as a team is to have faith in the ones we are working with. When we are able to have faith, we are able to create a positive environment where everyone is able to express his or her best potential. The task would be successful and there would be benefit and personal growth for everyone working in the team.




~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

See Positive Aspects In Each And Every Person !

To be connected with people's specialties is to have faith in them. Faith is more based on our perception of people rather than just their behaviour. When we have the habit of seeing specialties in each and every person, we are able to create space for the use of these specialties. This automatically reflects our faith in them and their ability to contribute. Let us make a firm practice of seeing at least one positive aspect in each and every person we come into contact with. Then we will be able to use this specialty in a practical way and help the other person also to use this specialty. In this way, we will be able to increase his capability and out faith in him.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Remember If We Have Taken We Have To Payback !

If we recognise that all inner and outer effects or results in our lives have causes which can be found within ourselves, then we understand karma or the law of sowing and reaping. If we are aware that we have just awoken to this law, and that we are consciously live with this law in our awareness we will also be aware that we were asleep to this law before - perhaps for a long time, possibly many births. It is therefore highly likely we tried to break the law. What we did not know was we cannot break this law. We cannot take anything without having to pay it back at some future stage. We may receive but we may not take - there is a difference. If we have taken then we must payback. Any form of pain or discomfort - mental, emotional or physical - means it is payback time. The universal debt collector has come to knock on our door. Accounts are being settled. If you can regard all pain, from a bump on the head to an emotional crisis, as the settling of a debt, you will be using the oldest wisdom to respond to life in the most enlightened way. The destination, once all accounts are settled, and all debts paid, is true peace and real freedom. Peace of mind and freedom from all pain.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Cooperation Will Successfully Accomplish The Task And Benefit Everyone !

Cooperation comes when there are pure feelings and good wishes for all involved in the task. Every task we take up needs to be for the benefit of all. When we are working for something in which there is common benefit, we are able to easily gain others' cooperation. This also brings good wishes from all of them, which will naturally help in the success of the task. When we take up something new and important, we need to make sure that there is surely something that will bring some benefit for everyone involved in the task. This attention helps us get the cooperation of those around us for the success of the task.



~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Set Yourselves Free !

If you know a little of yourself, you will have realized that you are more than meets your eyes in the mirror in the morning. What you see is not what you are. You see the form not the content, the body not the soul, the matter not the mind. In quiet and profound moments, we innately know what is true. But we forget. The world tells us and wants us to believe that we are what we see – and we take the easy way out. We believe. That’s why the awakening of spirit and the flowering of our spirituality (nothing to do with religion) means we have to keep reminding ourselves, a hundred times a day, I am a soul – not a body, I am an eternal spirit – not a perishable piece of meat. I am quality, not quantity. I am. Otherwise, freedom is not possible. And if we are not free, in the deepest space inside our own being, we cannot be truly happy.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Where There Is Self-Respect There Is Success !

The one who works with self-respect is the one who wins the cooperation of others. When we do things in our natural state of self- respect, it creates cooperation. On the other hand if we have ego because of which we expect others to recognize our work and appreciate it, it creates competition and jealousy. If someone is not cooperating with us, we need to check within ourselves why we are performing that task. If there is the slightest feeling of trying to prove ourselves, we need to remove it. In its place, there needs to be the thought in the mind that we want only success in the task and nothing else.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Understand Situations Accurately And Overcome All Obstacles By Detachment !

Silence brings the experience of the power within. When we see with a silent mind, a mind free from questions and waste thoughts , we will be able to see beyond what is visibly happening. This enables us to go beyond the situation. It is like flying high and looking down below and we'll be able to see things clearly and also be able to fly across the barriers very easily. All we need to do when we are tired of the situation we are going through is to take some moments of silence to remind ourselves of the power within. When we get detached and watch the situation as we would watch a play, we would be able to enjoy each thing that happens. This detachment gives us the power to understand the situation accurately and overcome all obstacles.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Practice Being A Peaceful Being !

To be in silence is to experience true peace that is within. 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 by practicing silence. Every morning let us take a few moments of silence and practice being a peaceful being, who is totally in charge of ones-self. When we make this practice firm, when difficult situations do come we will be able to rely more on our internal peace instead of getting carried away by the external situations.



~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Keep Your Mind Free From Worries !

To experience silence is to become 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. So solutions are not to be found easily. The more we are able to make our mind calm with the practice of silence we are able to find solutions easily. Let us think of something that we consider as a problem, something about which we are thinking a lot of.Now let us see with a calm mind if we can find a solution for it. If we feel we cannot, it is better to leave thinking about it rather than to worry about it. When we keep the mind free in this way, we will get the solutions automatically.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Maintain Your Self-Respect With Silence !

Silence helps to get in touch with one's own pure, perfect self. When we take time and spend it in silence, we are able to get in touch with our pure, perfect self. It helps us to go within and recognize our inner own inner truth. It is not just to stay within but to recognize one's own inner worth and deal with the world with it. Even during the worst situations, we need to take time to be in silence, become introverted and look within ourselves and see our own inner worth. We will then naturally be able to maintain our self-respect. This enables us to be stable and happy, whatever the situation might be.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Spread Pure Thoughts And Pure Feelings Through Silence !

The power of silence can bring peace to any situation. The instruments for the power of silence are pure thoughts and pure feelings. We can give others an experience with the power of our silence. When we understand and experience the power of silence we will become more powerful. We will then be able to experience peace that will naturally spread to others too. When we have to correct someone in any situation we first need to remind ourselves that words will not work but silence based on pure feelings and love will surely work. When we accept the person as he is with love we will be able to bring about a change in him. The lesser we talk the more the peace that is created.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Be A Trustee ! Follow A Relaxing Way Of Relating To Things !

We all have a relationship with everything. Obviously the relationship we have with the people and objects in our immediate vicinity is more intimate than the rest of the world. For most of us the most common relationship is possession. In our minds we think we own and possess things like cars and houses and carpets and golf clubs etc. This thinking easily spreads into jobs and tasks and positions and perhaps even other people. "I want you", and "You are mine alone", is the essence of many romantic film scripts and song lyrics. What we forget is that this relationship is wrong. It is not possible to possess anything. Care for..yes. Use...yes. But possess...no. You can't take it with you when you go, so we say! And yet it's the idea of possession which lies at the heart of all fear, war and conflict. Can you see it? Fear of loss, fear of not acquiring what we have already decided is ours in our minds. So what is a better relationship we can choose which takes all the fear away. Be a trustee. Everything comes to us in trust, for us to use and then to set it free. The consciousness of trustee sets us free of the tension of grasping and guarding. To see ourselves as trustees of everything that we receive, including our bodies, encourages our innate capacity to 'care for with dignity'. It is a much more relaxing way of relating to the things which we are privileged to receive in life.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Sow Seeds Of Peace For A Bright Future !

Ignorance makes you believe that life functions haphazardly. Wisdom teaches you that everything that happens in this theatre of life has profound significance. What you see today is not the fruit of chance but a fruit from seeds planted in the past. Plant seeds of peace nowand you will create a life of peace in the future.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Check Your Words Before Proving Something To Others !

To have the power of truth is to have the ability to tolerate. When someone disbelieves us, we usually tend to argue back and try to prove our point to the others. In spite of our great efforts to do that, we are not able to convince them. Along with that is a very simple factthat the more we talk the less we are listened to. And thus we end up being more frustrated. When someone challenges the truth of our words, we need to check within ourselves if there is something that we can correct or learn. When we learn to do this, instead of being stubbornwith what we have to say or blaming others, we find it easy to tolerate.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Meditation Increases Your Energy For The day !

The best time to awaken both body and spirit is in the early morning. We are fresh, in solitude, and the vibrations of the world are at their calmest. It is not surprising that you will find all experienced meditators and yogis up with the dawn, inviting the sun of spirit to shine into the heart of their soul. The first half hour of conscious awareness will be the foundation of your day. Make an early start. Meditate, set the switch of your consciousness and calibrate your energy for the day. You'll be surprised the difference it makes.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Experience Your Inner Qualities With Your Clean Heart !

To be clean at heart is to give happiness to others. The one who has a clean heart is the one who always tries to do the best for those with whom he comes in contact. Thus, the person develops the ability to accept others as they are and ignore anything wrong done by them.Instead, he is able to do the right action without losing the balance. So such a person brings joy for himself and for others through every action he performs. When we have a clean heart we are able to have an experience of our inner qualities. We are able to enjoy the beauty of the different relationships, each relationship and each person being unique. Thus others are able to get in touch with their inner beauty too. So there is joy experienced by all.



~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Try To Complete Your Tasks In Time !

A task left undone remains undone in two places - at the actual location of the task, and inside your head. Incomplete tasks in your head consume the energy of your attention as they gnaw at your conscience. They siphon off a little more of your personal power every time you delay. No need to be a perfectionist, that's debilitating in an imperfect world, but it's good to be a 'completionist'. If you start it, finish it...or forget it.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Enjoy Color And Beauty Of Life And Appreciate Variety That Life Brings !

The one who is joyful is the one who is free from tiredness. When we are able to enjoy the colour and beauty of life, we are able to be free from tiredness. We are able to appreciate the variety that life brings. No difficult circumstance or situation takes away the inner spirit and so we are able to be fresh and joyful. Even in a difficult situation we need to remind ourselves that we can only enjoy the beauty of life if we are able to appreciate equally all that life brings. As much as we enjoy success, we also need to enjoy learning from our failures.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Get Joy And Enjoy Your Work To Succeed !

To be free from expectations means to experience inner joy. When we are free from expectations from others we are also free from dependency. So we are able to do everything well and to our satisfaction. We are not bound by the praise that we get from others but there is joy in doing the action itself. Then of course praise follows too. When we do something, we first have to ensure that we are enjoying it and keep reminding ourselves of the joy that we are deriving out of it. Then we are free from the desire for recognition or praise. Then we will find ourselves succeeding in the task that we undertake and we will be appreciated too.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Bring About A Change In Your Life And Move Forward !

The one who has the humility to learn and progress is the one who experiences constant joy. We need to take responsibility for the mistakes we have committed and have the enthusiasm to learn from them. This comes when there is humility which also brings honesty with the self. So there is an experience of constant change and progress. At all times there is the ability to bring about change and so there is an experience of joy under all circumstances. When we are honest with ourselves, we are able to find the joy of learning from our mistakes. Mistakes don't make us heavy because we know we have something to learn from them. There is constantly enthusiasm to bring about a change and move forward. Our inner joy allows us to progress constantly thereby becoming an inspiration for many to bring about change.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Knowing Yourself Truly Is The Doorway To Freedom !

There is nothing more inevitable than the greying of hair and the crinkling of skin. Resisting it is like trying to hold back the tide of the ocean. Accepting it is the way into a graceful life and the possibility of true Leisure! Our lives are mostly without leisure as we succumb to the marketing men and their determination to convince us that the tide can be beaten back, at the very least, kept at bay. As a consequence we count the greys and measure the length and depth of the wrinkles. We spend our time and attention on the surface of our forms, and create the habits of anxiety and worry as they inevitably deteriorate. But when we truly know ourselves as spirit within the form, all those subtle tensions are dissolved. We never age, never grow old, never die - only our bodies do. Knowing ourselves as we truly are is the doorway to freedom and to the graceful acceptance that we are destined to inhabit and play many roles in many bodies. Is that not both a liberating and a relaxing insight? If you play with it, explore it for truth, meditate on it, seriously give it 'house room' in your head, you may actually experience yourself as a free spirit. And when you do you will know true relaxation.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Know Your Own Truth And Live By It !

To follow someone else's truth is a trap. The best strategy is to know your own truth, face it and live by it. Others may inspire, guide, give you directions, but ultimately you have to cut your own way through the jungle. You could always be asking others where North is, and they will tell you. Someone will say North is this way and someone else that North is that other way - and both would have been sincere. But you alone have to find your true North.



~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Think Positively About The Present !

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

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Get Detached And Bring Benefit To All !

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




~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Be Enthusiastic And Create Enthusiasm In Others !

The one who is enthusiastic makes others enthusiastic too. The one who has this one speciality of enthusiasm, will be instrumental in bringing many other specialities. The words of such a person will fill others with courage and fill with hope, the ones who are hopeless.When we find someone who is not able to maintain his enthusiasm, it is good to remind ourselves that we are responsible for creating enthusiasm in others. When we take up responsibility in this way we will be able to finish laziness and carelessness within us and we will be enthusiastic too.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Learn To Be Independent And Happy !

The root of suffering is attachment. You have created a space in your mind that holds a person or object as a part of you. When that person or object is criticized, neglected or not there with you, you feel pain in your mind and you experience a sense of loss. If you want to remain happy at all times, you must learn to love and appreciate while remaining independent.



~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Work In a Cooperative Environment And Fulfill Your Responsibilities !

The one who works in coordination with others is the one who can fulfill responsibilities well. Responsibilities can be fulfilled well when there is the recognition that each one can contribute something to the task. It is also essential to create a cooperative rather than a competitive environment. Then there would be no feeling of superiority or inferiority in anyone. When we are responsible to complete some task, we need to involve all the people who can help in it. When we do this we will find our task finishing faster. Also we would find that we would get the good wishes of all the people involved in the task.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Specific Thoughts About True Responsibility !

Responsibility is best fulfilled by the one who is detached. When one is attached to the task that he is responsible for it leads to worry, doubt and fear. This can have a crippling effect on decision-making and result in difficult situations. On the other hand, the one who is detached is the one who is able to see things clearly and so fulfill all responsibilities with lightness. When we have to take up some new responsibility we need to tell ourselves that we will do our best in fulfilling the responsibility. When we become detached from the result of the task we will find ourselves doing our best because there are no negative thoughts.



~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Changing and Inspiring Others To Change !

The one who is responsible changes first before he expects others to change. The one who is responsible is a leader. He would take up the responsibility to change himself first instead of waiting for others to change. With the change that he brings in himself he inspires others to change too. When we think of one situation where we were expecting someone else to change, we also need to think of one aspect in this situation in which we can bring about a change in ourselves. We need to take up the responsibility of changing this and we will find ourselves progressing, thus inspiring others to take the inspiration to change too.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Be Brave And Face Situations Courageously !

We should have courage to work on the self is to find the beauty within. Situations come that challenge one's own strength. At such times the mind tends to become weak displaying weaknesses. Then there is no courage to look within. The one who is able to be introspectiveat that time is able to find a new learning. He is thus able to express the beauty that is lying within. When we understand that at each step of our life, situations come to bring out some quality from within, we'll never be afraid of situations. we'll have the courage to challenge our own assumptions and move forward based on the learning that we get and the beauty that we have been able to discover.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Take Up Responsibility Of Performing The Best !

Responsibility is to honor the role that has been entrusted and to perform it to the best of one's ability. Just as the actor accepts whatever role he is given and performs to the best of his ability, in the same way taking up responsibility for one's life is to accept and honor the role so that the performance is the best under all circumstances. The result is that time and resources are utilized to bring maximum benefit. Each day let us remind ourselves that we are a good actor who brings out the best of whatever role we get. Instead of thinking of what we don't have, we need to start looking at what we have and using it in the best possible way.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Silence Contains Power To Create Harmony !

It is when we silence the chattering of our mind that we can truly hear what is in our heart and find the still, clear purity that lies within the soul. Spiritual love carries us into the silence of our original state of being. This silence contains the power to create harmony in all relationships and the sweetness to sustain them. And it is when we are silent within that we can let God into our hearts and minds filling us with peace, love and power.



~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

An Important Liberal Thought !

Liberate yourself from the bondages of the mind. It is wasteful thoughts that won't allow you to attain true freedom. True Independence is to be, in dependence of only GOD.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Power Of Silence Is Full Of Pure Thoughts And Pure Feelings !

The power of silence can bring peace to any situation. The instruments for the power of silence are pure thoughts and pure feelings. We can give others an experience with the power of our silence. When we understand and experience the power of silence we will become more powerful. We will then be able to experience peace that will naturally spread to others too. When we have to correct someone in any situation we first need to remind ourselves that words will not work but silence based on pure feelings and love will surely work. When we accept the person as he is with love we will be able to bring about a change in him. The lesser we talk the more the peace that is created.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Maintain Powerful Thoughts For Constant Peace Of Mind !

To experience peace is to be in one powerful stage. The more the thoughts we have, the lesser the peace that is experienced in the mind. When we are able to maintain a powerful thought throughout the day whatever the situations come our way we can experience constantpeace. Right in the morning let us take a thought that is positive and powerful. For example, 'victory is my birthright' or 'I am always fortunate'. Whatever the situations we come across, let us emerge this thought and we will be able to maintain peace.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

True Respect Brings Humility !

Where there is true respect there is humility. The more respect is measured on the basis of something external, the greater the desire for recognition from others. The greater the desire, the more one falls victim to ego and there cannot be humility. We need to start theday with a thought that brings self-respect. We need to tell ourselves that we are special and also use this speciality throughout the day. We will then not dominate or limit the freedom of anyone but will naturally work with humility.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

A Very Creative And Intelligent Thought !

Every day is an opportunity to be creative - the canvas is your mind, the brushes and colours are your thoughts and feelings, the panorama is your story, the complete picture is a work of art called, 'my life'. Be careful what you put on the canvas of your mind today – it matters.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Find The Beauty That Is Hidden Within You !

Introversion brings empowerment of the self. Just as a tortoise withdraws from the external environment after its work is done, we too need to find time for ourselves. Amidst the activity of the day, we need to make time to look within and find the beauty that is hiddenthere. When we do this as a practice it brings a positive experience that empowers the self. We need to give ourselves a little time everyday at regular intervals. During this time, we need to look within and find our own uniqueness and we will find that we are ableto have access to our positivity. This practice will help us during a difficult time too and we will be able to use these qualities under all circumstances. So we will not be a victim to situations but will be able to give what is required at that time.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Changing Ourselves According To Situations Will Make Us Happy !

Happiness comes when there is self-sovereignty. Being a self-sovereign enables to have control over the self. If not, when there are negative or difficult situations, there would be sorrow. When there is control there will be no expectations from situations to change, but there will be the courage to change oneself. When things go wrong, instead of worrying or waiting for things to change, we need to remind ourselves that we are a self-sovereign and we will be able to bring about a change in ourselves. When we work on ourselves and change we can be happy.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Don't Think Much, Use Thoughts Required Effortlessly !

Introversion helps to manage thoughts better. With introversion we can very easily manage our thoughts since our mind will be free from waste and negative. Also when we are introverted, we find that there is no need to think as much as we do, but the thoughts required emerge effortlessly. Thus we are able to use our thoughts powerfully. When we find ourselves having a lot of thoughts due to some situation, we only need to sit in silence and practice going within ourselves instead of thinking too much about the situation. We need to make an attempt to experience the peace deep within ourselves and we will find we are getting calmer.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Detachment Enables To Understand The Importance Of The Virtue !

Balance makes life peaceful and happy. A life of peace is a life of balance. Sometimes, even a single negative thought or word can throw one out of balance. Even a virtue needs to be in balance. For instance determination, which provides energy and concentration necessary for any accomplishment can become stubbornness. So determination when balanced with patience and flexibility creates a life of happiness. When we have detachment whilst using a virtue, we are able to maintain balance. Otherwise we find that even a virtue to an extreme takes a negative form. Detachment enables us to recognize the importance of the virtue and use it in the right way, according to the requirement.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Be Free From Expectations And Attain Everything Without Any Difficulty !

To have a desire for the good act done is to eat unripe fruit. To have a desire to get the result of what one does is like eating unripe fruit. It is like following a shadow that will never be got. On the other hand, to do things because there is joy in doing it is to enjoy putting in effort. This also ensures that there is fruit attained at the right time. When we are able to do things because we enjoy them, we are able to be free from expectations. And because we are free from expectations and desires, yet working towards our aim, we find ourselves attaining everything without any difficulty. We are patient and wait with joy for the fruit of our effort to ripen.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Experience Sweetness Of Life And Move Towards Success !

True sweetness is to be peaceful in every thought, word and deed. The one who is peaceful in thoughts is able to be sweet in words and positive in actions. Such a person is able to give others an experience of one's own positive qualities and those of others too. So there is beauty, positivity and sweetness perceived in such a person's life. When we are totally peaceful, we are able to experience our own inner beauty. In the silence of the mind, we are able to see everything in a positive way. So we have nothing that is a difficult situation, but only situations that bring out the best from within us. We experience the sweetness of life and continue to move on towards success.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Remain Light To Gain Easy Success !

To be light is to be free from the bondage of one's own weaknesses. To be light is to be free from the burden or bondage of waste thoughts and weaknesses. These traits within don't allow one to work with lightness. The waste binds the mind and so the efficiency is blocked. On the other hand, the one who is free from these weaknesses is free from bondages while doing everything. The one who remains light, remains up above and hence gains easy success. When we are light while doing our activities, we find ourselves working over our weaknesses easily and naturally. So, we feel free from the bondages of waste thoughts. This further enables us to discover hidden talents and potentials. This gives us the satisfaction of doing well and also enables us to experience easy success in every action we do.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Make An Impact On Others With Your Sweet Words !

Others experience sweetness when words are filled with the power of truth. False sweetness is saying that something is good without having taken the pains to find out what it is i.e., commenting on something superficial. Sweet words are those that are spoken after having understood the reality. In order for our words to make an impact on others, we must take time to see if we have really recognised the goodness in the other person. Each of our comments should be based on the truth that we have discovered in others and we will find others taking benefit from my words.

Remember You Are A One-Off !

Perhaps the most common habit we all learn to develop is to compare our self with others. Every time you compare yourself with another watch for thoughts like, "They seem to be doing better than me.... I wonder what it's like to be them... how come they get all the luck ... they are much better than me at that." Behind these thoughts you are really saying you would like to be them, live like them and be in the position they are in. In that moment you forget you are absolutely unique. You can only be your self. There is no one the same as you, and you can never be the same as someone else. If you keep thinking in this way you only sustain an underlying sense of failure which eats away at your self-respect and self-esteem. Never compare your self with anyone else, realise and remember you are a one-off!

Great Intelligent Sentences !

We all have a relationship with everything. Obviously the relationship we have with the people and objects in our immediate vicinity is more intimate than the rest of the world. For most of us the most common relationship is possession. In our minds we think we own and possess things like cars and houses and carpets and golf clubs etc. This thinking easily spreads into jobs and tasks and positions and perhaps even other people. "I want you", and "You are mine alone", is the essence of many romantic film scripts and song lyrics. What we forget is that this relationship is wrong. It is not possible to possess anything. Care for..yes. Use...yes. But possess...no. You can't take it with you when you go, so we say! And yet it's the idea of possession which lies at the heart of all fear, war and conflict. Can you see it? Fear of loss, fear of not acquiring what we have already decided is ours in our minds. So what is a better relationship we can choose which takes all the fear away. Be a trustee. Everything comes to us in trust, for us to use and then to set it free. The consciousness of trustee sets us free of the tension of grasping and guarding. To see ourselves as trustees of everything that we receive, including our bodies, encourages our innate capacity to 'care for with dignity'. It is a much more relaxing way of relating to the things which we are privileged to receive in life.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Make Optimum Use Of Your Resources !

Fortune is in one's own hands. To have fortune in one's own hands doesn't mean to have it in the lines of one's hands.

Through actions one can draw the line of fortune as long as desired. When we are able to create an elevated fortune for ourselves, we are able to become an inspiration for others too to create an elevated fortune for themselves.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

An Inspiring Message !

Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Whatever I do, when all is said and done, I do for or to myself. Perhaps I should think before I perform actions because after the seed of action is sown I have to reap the fruit. Moreover, I do not receive only one fruit for every seed sown, I often get a whole crop, good or bad according to the action or seed.


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Experience True Peace !

If you want to help, you can still involve yourself in a more subtle way through faith. Faith in others does a lot of work. It doesn't mean blind faith - observing helplessly while keeping your fingers crossed - it means to remain alert to what's going on, and then to fill another with the strength of your faith to such an extent that they feel able to do whatever needs to be done. This means having faith, but also donating the power of your faith. If the other person is honest and truthful, your faith will work for them. In this way, we can learn to truly help each other.



~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Be Content ! Be Satisfied !

Next time you are waiting for anything, notice what you are wanting! This will be a source of your tension or impatience.

We can do this when we are able to connect to the divinity within. This will make us experience power.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Correct Others Effectively With Sweetness !

Correction with sweetness is more effective than words spoken with anger. We need to be sweet while we have to correct or point out someone's mistake. When we do that, what goes across to them is the feeling and not the words. If there were to be anger or dislike while correcting them, the response we get would be negative too. When we do have to correct someone, it is necessary to remind ourselves to be sweet, not just in our words, but in our attitude as well. For this we need to practice having good wishes for the one we want to bring a change in. Love combined with sweetness will surely work, and we'll definitely be able to notice a change.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Optimism Changes Things In The Right Way !

The ones with real sweetness are always optimistic. Having understood the secret behind each and everything that is happening, sweetness comes in our lives.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Create A Positive Atmosphere Around You !

Even if I don't mean to be critical, I often unconsciously home in on others' weaknesses and mistakes.

When I continually think: "He/she is wrong", I create a barrier that prevents me from reaching my own goodness.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Words and actions are only those that are beneficial for the other person. Our positivity keeps us free from blaming others and enables us to be rich with the variety of experiences that we get.

When there is attention at every step, little things are taken care of. Attention also means constant checking of the self and introspection, which brings self-correction immediately. When we have attention on little things, we are able to keep our mind cool and calm. Challenging situations or people don't take us away from our state of well-being. As we are in constant touch with our own inner qualities, we are free from the influence of the outside environment and we move on towards further empowerment.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Truthfulness Helps You To Be Stable !

Stability comes where there is truth. If we are arguing to prove ourselves right, we are not actually in our stable stage. It is of course necessary to clarify for accuracy, but it is not necessary to argue with stubbornness. If we are arguing, it means we are not convinced about the truth. When involved in an argument with someone, we need to check if we are convinced of the truth of what we are arguing about.

Then we can clear things out with a cool mind.

Even things that go wrong have something to teach us, if we are willing to learn. With humility we continue to learn.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Stability Makes You Strong !

Stability is to remain unshakeable, without any fluctuation in all situations. If we have no stability, even small things begin to upset us.

When things are not going very smooth, it is necessary to remind myself that nothing is permanent. When we have the faith that things will surely change, we will be able to maintain our stability in all situations.
