Spread Love And Experience The Sweetness Of Relationships !

To have love is to fill words with sweetness. It is difficult, if not impossible, just to try and make the words sweet. Even with the greatest attention only an attempt could be made at a superficial level to make words really sweet. Real sweetness comes when there is love in the heart. This love enables one to be sweet in allinteractions. When we have love in our heart for others as well as for ourselves our feelings are always filled with good wishes. We will experience the inner sweetness, which then spreads around to others too. When we have good wishes we will be sweet in all our words. Thus we experience the sweetness of relationships.

Use Your Treasures For The Benefit Of All !!!

The one who brings benefit to each and everyone is a true benefactor. Each one has immense treasures that can be contributed to those around, but the one who is a benefactor surely finds reasons and excuses to use these treasures constantly for the benefit of all. True benefit lies in giving some or the other positive input to each and everyone who happens to come one's way. When we have the constant desire to bring benefit to everyone around us, we are naturally free from all kind of expectations. We don't expect others to change according to our needs and desires, but are able to bring about achange in ourselves according to the requirements of time. So we experience constant improvement.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

An Intelligent Thought !

Many believe it is ignorant to trust the innate goodness of human beings, because you will be taken for a ride. But won't this mistrust gradually affect my own character and perception of life? Is it worth being insecure at every step just because others are dishonest? It is only when I have unreasonable expectations of others that I get disappointed with their inability to reciprocate my love and trust. God loves me irrespective of whether I am worthy of His love. His faith in me is so pure and powerful that it transforms me. Let me give as God gives; let me trust as God trusts.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Focus Your Attention On Power And Divinity !

There are times when my mind faces inertia: it can either be that the fast speed of thoughts is tough to control, or there is a lack of enthusiasm to think new and differently. An efficient driver has good control over both the accelerator and brake. Similarly, my day runs smoothly when I can operate the mind and intellect to maneuver the flow of thoughts and generate productive thoughts as I wish. The best way to enhance my mind is to take few minutes out at regular intervals to clean out unnecessary and waste thoughts, and focus my attention on the Supreme Ocean of Power and Divinity.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Use Your Mind Positively !

Imagine owning the finest instrument in the world and not knowing how to maintain or operate it at its optimum? This is the irony we face with nature's most valuable gift: the mind. It is a fertile piece of land, which does not discriminate between good and bad seeds, or thoughts. Whatever I the soul sow (or think), the field of my mind will automatically nurture and reap fruit accordingly. Just as choosing a career is not taken lightly, when I value my thoughts and 'think' before I think I can save myself a lot of energy and time.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Connect Yourself With The Spiritual World !

Many of us don't like to be 'superstitious' but in some way or the other we all tend to believe in the influence of objects, omens, places or destiny... An intellectual mind usually discards such notions saying nothing external can really influence the human spirit. However, spirituality shows us a balanced approach: although nature and physical objects/places are inanimate, the thoughts and feelings experienced by human souls permeate the environment and remain. Since the relationship between soul and body is intimate and powerful, anything the body experiences (be it intake of food or contact with physical world) will affect the soul. If the environment I live in is physically and spiritually pure, it is easier for me to increase my soul power.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Shine With Your Inner Beauty !

Can I detach from the various personalities I play during the day (daughter, parent, boss, employee, student) and talk to myself one-on-one? Is it good enough to fulfill my daily responsibilities or do I value my spiritual self too? Sometimes I may avoid thinking about the inner self because it's a little scary to face my weaknesses and come to terms with not-so-good past actions. However, it's a fact that whatever is real and true lives on despite the amount of alloy mixed in or accumulated layers of dust. Would the world be just as beautiful if we had left all the impure gold or raw diamonds buried away? I must learn to value myself, an eternal spirit of divinity, and do all I can to make it glow...


~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Share Your Goodness With All !

Regardless of the existing splendor of the artificial modern world, we are genuinely impressed by anything that is natural, such as beauty of nature and its living creatures, wonders of the human body, amazing creative abilities of the human intellect etc. We tend to unknowingly connect or harmonize with people or things that mirror our qualities of peace, balance, stability or the values we aspire for. However, a piece of artistic beauty, place of entertainment or worship etc gives memorable but short-lived experiences. As my Supreme Parent and Companion, God alone can empower me with the will to actually live by these cherished values. When I give more time to contemplate on His greatness and purity, I develop the courage to unveil and share my own goodness with all.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Focus Your Energies On Your Goal !

While moving towards my destination, I tend to get distracted with even the little things that happen. Even a small negative or positive incident is enough to distract my thoughts from my destination. I am sometimes so busy with such things that my vision moves away from my destination and I stop moving forward. I need to first clarify my goal. Once I have done this, I need to take care that my vision is focused on it. Even when situations come by, trying to distract me I need to remind myself that these are only side-scenes which are not important for me. It is more important to keep my energies focused towards the goal.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Overcome Difficult Situations With Patience !

When difficult situations come our way, we tend to create a lot of waste questions in our mind. These waste questions only fill our mind with negativity draining us out of our energy. At that time, it seems natural to have such thoughts and we are caught up only with such thoughts, leaving no space for constructive thoughts. When difficult situations come our way, we need not be caught up with why it happened but we need to make effort to fly. We need to find a way to empower ourselves that we become stronger than the situation, so that we are able to fly above it. Then the situation would appear tiny and we would be able to overcome it in a second.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Use Your Specialities With Great Joy !

When a situation is good we are able to use our own specialties, but when the situation is not so good, we tend to come back to ordinary or waste. So we are constantly waiting for opportunities to reveal our own specialty and at other times being colored by the negativity or ordinariness of the situation. When we are aware of our own specialties in a conscious way, we are able to add quality and beauty to everything that we speak or do. Nothing of ours is then waste or even ordinary but everything we do becomes special. We are able to make everything more meaningful and powerful. We are not caught up with the ordinariness or the negativity of the situation, but are able to enjoy the moment by coloring it with our own special quality.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Meaningful Inspirational Quote !

We normally have a lot of desires and expectations from life itself. We want something or the other and when we don't get them we tend to have negative feelings. Sometimes these feelings turn to feelings of inferiority too. So even good things are hidden from our vision. When we recognise our own talents and gifts that life has bestowed on us, we are able to recognise what we deserve rather than what we desire. We are able to use our resources to attain what we desire. We then do not feel what we lack but are more connected with what we have and how we have to use what we have.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Intelligent Positive thoughts !

We are well aware of the physical resources that we have and make use of them too. But we become a little careless about the resource of time. We normally believe that to use time well means to plan the day well and work according to the plan, and we somehow manage to do that to a great extent. Yet there is a large amount of time going waste too. To use the resource of time well is to be aware of where we are investing it. When we are investing time in creating only positive thoughts, sweet or beneficial words and useful actions, we are able to find a lot of time being saved. And we are sure to get the best out of this investment too. We find ourselves getting good returns out of everything that we do.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Important Values In Life !

Every human life has meaning because of the value that he is able to add to everything that he does and every relationship of his. Values are the natural power of good within each one of us. Values form the basis of our relationships and growth. We enrich our own lives and the lives of those around us when values come into play. Focusing on these positive qualities/values helps us to transform old attitudes, to gain fresh perspectives and find unexpected answers. They free our path from obstacles and make clear life's opportunities.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Admire God’s Lovely Creation !

The vast, abundant nature has an amazing ability to refresh our minds and hearts, doesn't it? Quite often it reminds us to marvel at God and His creation. But aren't we human beings God's greatest creation? If the inanimate, idyllic nature is powerful enough to touch our souls and make us lighter and more content, what can I not do? When others look at me, are they reminded of God's beauty and qualities? Let my personality be balanced and serene so that my presence comforts souls and elevates their consciousness.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

True Freedom And Self Respect Is Necessary For Admirable Life And Future

Occasionally we forget how fortunate we are to have the freedom of choice: liberty to express our desires, choose our friends, clothes, religion, music, food, careers, partners..., while a significant part of our world is oblivious to the same. But are the rest of us really living a life of independence? Or does my mind suffocate at times with unproductive thinking? Can I select golden thoughts of positivity, inspiration, determination, love etc as I wish? True freedom and self-respect cannot be bestowed externally by God, fate or any human being. It begins with me liberating myself from unworthy thinking, thus empowering my words, actions and character for an admirable life and future.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Open Your Minds To A New Start !

A disappointment is never easy to surpass. I work hard towards a goal giving it all I have and still end up empty-handed. 'Where did I go wrong, what's the use of being diligent and conscientious? May be everything depends on luck, God didn't help me...' A vision that was initially strong and focused takes a sharp detour into the by-lanes of disheartened thinking. On the other hand, by looking at the situation with a calm, detached attitude, I can locate the faults or leakages. Even if my attempts were faultless, to refuse to learn from a set-back is a sign of ego. God helps me back on my feet when He sees that I haven't closed the doors of my mind to new experiences.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Intelligent Positive Thinking !

When my expectations for a task or another person are unfulfilled, I sometimes attribute it to my weaknesses or unworthiness. I may accept the disappointment and even forget the incident but sub-consciously allow it to hamper my self-respect. Ambitions or relationships are not appendages of my identity. They are vital in shaping my personality and taking me ahead, however I need to be prudent in not permitting them to distort how I see myself. Only my God knows me precisely for what I am and what I will be. With this faith and confidence, let me see every experience as a brick thrown towards me to build a strong foundation for my future.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Be Successful, Make a Difference with a Clear Mind !!!

* * * * * * * * M E R R Y C H R I S T M A S * * * * * * *

Accepting life as it is a multi-faceted concept. While it's good to accept circumstances and people as they are, it would be unwise to act out of blind faith or dejection: Either we say things will happen if God or destiny wills it, or that things are never going to improve so why bother.... Both perceptions spread a negative vibration. Acceptance means I don't confront a situation or person simply because things aren't to my liking, as this drains me of energy I could use to reform the problem. With a clear mind, heart open to the unexpected, and willingness to make a difference, I link myself to God and take His energy to be successful in my goals.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt.Abu.

Positive Enchanting Quote !

It's a wonder how God manages to be so enchanting since none of His uniqueness can be attributed to the parameters human beings normally associate with an attractive personality such as etiquette, education, fashion sense, social contacts etc. Though God's purity, wisdom, power, love... are intangible, when I am soul-consciousness I get exposed to God's unparalleled magnetism. The more I stay in this spiritual magnetic field, my mind and heart experience a slow but permanent change by appreciating myself and others for more than physical qualifications.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.
