A Vision Of Goodness For Everyone (Part 2)

God loves the world more than we do. He loves each person on this world more than we can ever do. This is because he is the Ocean of Love and Mercy. When we see imperfections in the world, sometimes we feel sorrow, sometimes hatred and sometimes even anger. Although God knows the negativity in the minds of his billions of children in the world, He also knows the hidden goodness and niceness in people, which we cannot see. This goodness is not only what everyone possesses now but also what they have possessed in their previous lives or births. So, God does not get angry and does not hate anyone and nor does He experience any pain, when He sees anger, ego, jealousy, revenge and hatred in the world.

So, let us think about our perception of the world and let us look upto God and take a positive inspiration from His perception. Let us tell ourselves that we will be good and see the good in the world and its people, which is our eternal family. We will not worry that the world is deteriorating in goodness and we no longer have the support from the world to remain good at all times. There are some people in this world who leave goodness because they feel they cannot survive if they are good and they will be left behind in every sphere of life. And then there are some who remain good, no matter what happens around them. Such people are loved and respected immensely not only by the world, but also by God. Sometimes this love can take time to come from the world, but remember if you enjoy God’s love and you find a place in his book of good people, people will love you sooner or later. So be good and do good always, be a goodness filled personality, well liked and loved by the world and respected by God.

A Vision Of Goodness For Everyone (Part 1)

We all live our lives from morning to night, performing actions and speaking words with others along with creating thoughts. The more all our thoughts, words and actions are full of the colour of different qualities, the more our life is an inspiration to all those whom we interact with and share many experiences of goodness with. Once a young boy was visiting a market and as he met a shopkeeper to buy a few items for his home, he found some money fallen on the floor, which did not belong to him. As he picked up the money and inquired with the shopkeeper about it, he was incorrectly told that it is the shopkeeper’s money, which he needed to return. As he returned the money, the real owner of the money turned up in the shop to collect it back. The innocent boy was surprised and questioned the shopkeeper about it, but he got only false answers back. He realized, as his parents had told him that the world is not a place completely full of virtues, but people can be false and pretend to be good at times.

Just like the little boy, sometimes we find ourselves surrounded by lots of false people possessing imperfect characteristics and sometimes some of us also get disheartened that does goodness exist in this world or not? Even God sees the world from above and sees the growing imperfections in this world. As a parent of the whole of humanity, He has this pure and sweet wish to change the world and not worry about the negative imperfection that exists. Also, God possesses the knowledge, love and power to transform the bitterness, the untruthfulness, the ego and the jealousy and hatred that exists in the world into goodness, sweetness, good wishes and love. Let’s discover His point of view in this message.

Injustices And Suffering In The World – Applying The Law of Karma (Part 2)

An understanding of the laws of action reminds us that whatever we give we get, and whatever we get is the result of what we have given. When we apply this understanding into our awareness while we watch apparent injustices in the world, it reduces our outrage, lessening our pain. It's not that we sit passively and allow people to bring about suffering upon others, but it helps us to see that the greatest or highest contribution that we can make, to both the victim and the sinner, is to help them remember who they are and help them rise above their anger and fear towards each other. Only in this way can we help them to liberate themselves from an exchange of energy that has perhaps been going on for centuries.

But before we can effectively do this for others, it is necessary to try and do it for ourselves. Instead of taking the law into our own hands (the desire for revenge and justice), we can benefit everyone around us by first understanding and living ourselves according to the invisible laws of cause and effect which define all human relationships. Sometimes this is referred to as practice what you preach, and it often requires moments of reflection before action in order to judge the consequences of any path of action. This capacity to stop, reflect and consider, in a state of mental calm and with clear intellect, is an essential characteristic of all effective leaders. It is also what makes us all potential leaders in life, every day, who can bring about world transformation through self transformation.

Message for the day 27-11-2018
-----------------------------------------

You will continue to remain happy when your each action is such that it doesn’t cause sorrow to anyone.

Checking:In all that you do throughout the day check if any of your actions is such that there is suffering for anyone. Also check if you are yourself happy with what you are doing. Where the action is right, you will not experience unhappiness.

Practice: Take a thought in the morning that you will do what is the best throughout the day. Also before you take any decision about any action ask yourself if it is going to harm anyone. Your decision to perform the action or not should be based on this.

--------------------------------------

Injustices And Suffering In The World – Applying The Law of Karma (Part 1)

We are presently living in a closely connected world where everyone knows what everyone else is doing, as they are doing it. Each day brings scenes and images, through the media, in front of us, of many apparent injustices and suffering of individuals or groups of individuals. Whether it's in the office, or in the market or on the television news, we hear and see reports of people suffering tremendous pain and sorrow at the hands of others. At these moments, our sense of injustice is stimulated and it becomes easy to rise in outrage against the sinners. In the process we ourselves suffer from our own self-created anger and perhaps hate. This process then becomes a habit and an inner pattern we begin to repeat, not only when we encounter scenes of global peacelessness, but the moment someone in the family or at office does something similar. A panic button is pressed and we react with the same pattern.

What we forget in both global and local contexts, is the history and geography of karma. Every scene and situation has a variety of related causes in both time (history) and space (geography) e.g. emotions of hatred and revenge amongst various countries and religions (in different parts of the world) and the actions connected with these emotions has underlying hidden causes, related to the Law of Karma (Law of Cause and Effect) which go back sometimes to hundreds of years – X is doing something with Y because Y had done something similar with X sometime in the past, but in different physical costumes, sometimes quite some time back in history – this is the reason, we often fail to take these causes into consideration when viewing these negative scenes and situations, because we see the situations with a limited perspective of present physical costumes and circumstances.

Be free from desire and you’ll be free from anger too.

Checking:When the ideas that you have offered are being rejected, check what kind of feelings you are having. Is there any irritation or anger? Where there is either of these it indicates that there is a desire for what you have said to be fulfilled.

Practice: When you are giving your ideas, just tell yourself that your idea is just for the good of all, if it is accepted by all it’s good. Even if it isn’t it is nothing to get upset about. When there is no consciousness of ‘it has to happen’, you’ll find yourself free from anger.

Awakening Your Intuition (Part 2)

Meditation purifies and sharpens our intellect which makes it broader and far-sighted and also makes it free from waste and negativity; very clean and clear, like a mirror. As a result the intellect is able to subconsciously look into the hidden aspects of any situation, sense the underlying thoughts, emotions and feelings of people involved without any of them being visible, also look into the future without it having evolved as yet and sense the right solution. Nothing can remain hidden from a mirror. Even though a mirror is not consciously aware, somehow or the other it will decide correctly. This is only the intuitive capability, the capability of becoming a situation doctor, hearing the mental pulse of the situation and coming up with the right cure for it, which is awakened by meditation immensely. If the intellect contains negativity or waste and is not clear, sometimes one or more than one of the many influences which we had mentioned in yesterday's message might be perceived to be the intuition and then we might fail in a particular situation. It’s important to note that the intuition, if heard correctly, which is only the case when the intellect is clean, can never be wrong and will always take you in the right direction.

In the above context, for the completely analytical minded, it’s significant to understand that the intuitive perception was favoured more by old spiritual traditions and the intellectual perception, is being favoured more by modern science and medicine. Relying only on the intellectual perception is not wise. It alone cannot give us a complete idea of reality. A balance needs to be created between the two different types of perception. People with a balance will be more successful in life and victorious in difficult situations.

Instead of waiting for things to change, you create a stage that will help change things.

Checking:Check if you are using words like, ‘when things change for the better, I’ll change too… I am just waiting for the things to get better…’ If you are using such words, it means you are letting the situation control you.

Practice: Each day tell yourself, ‘I have full control of the situations around me. It is when I change that things around me will change too and I definitely have the power to change things around me.’

Soul Sustenance 24-11-2018
--------------------------------------

Awakening Your Intuition (Part 1)

In real life, we are faced with many situations when important decisions have to be taken, a particular path to move ahead has to chosen. At such times, our mind is filled with various different voices or influences like the influence of people surrounding us, who give their different opinions regarding the particular situation; they say something, our mental logic along with knowledge of people and things, says something else, then there is the influence or memory of our past experiences which colour our perception of the present situation differently. Also there is the influence of the outside world in general - all that we see, hear and read. There are also our attachments, selfish desires, fears, mental biases towards a particular person or situation, emotions like jealousy and hatred, beliefs etc. which influence our perception. Our mind is full of all these influences, many of them even conflicting each other, and we experience complete turmoil or indecisiveness inside ourselves, we don't know what to do.

In such cases it is sometimes extremely wise to keep all these influences aside, sit in silence and listen to what our intuition is saying to us. There are many situations, in which after the situation is over, we realize that all the influences mentioned above would have taken us on the wrong path, but it was our intuition, our inner voice of wisdom, alone which gave us the right solution and took us safely to our destination.

Instead of contemplating on others, spend time in self-contemplation and you’ll find yourself progressing.

Checking:In all that you do throughout the day check how much time you are spending in thinking about others and what they are doing. Also check how much time you are being introspective and spending time with yourself.

Practice: When you find yourself blaming or criticizing others’ way of working, turn your thoughts towards yourself and change your thinking at that moment. The more you think about yourself, you will find yourself progressing.

Let’s Be Human Beings, Not Human Doings (Part 3)

A life full of inner happiness and contentment is only possible when everything you do is based on your real spiritual self. Suppose you have an important exam in your school and you are preparing for it with complete honesty and sincerity. Giving the exam is an important challenge for you but inspite of all your hard work you do not fare well in the exam. In such a case, we might feel unhappy but have we ever wondered that an external situation like this may be positive or negative. But do we allow our mind’s thoughts, feelings and emotions to be governed by them or to be controlled by them. Also, do remember that your life’s purpose is not only to earn wealth, play roles of different types, look after your family and children and excel in exams and get good degrees. No person in this world has everything going his way at all times in these different spheres of life. So a sole purpose based on things that may or may not go our way can be tiring and full of broken happiness, which goes and comes from time to time.

When we have a higher purpose of redefining our thinking and modifying our feelings into better ones, our little world around us – our family and then the little bigger world around us – our workplace and then the even bigger world – our society followed by our country and then the complete world will begin to change. If we had the complete human race acquiring a higher purpose before short term purposes of eating and feeding, earning and breeding, gaining and producing, then all these things outside us would be more full of accuracy and beauty. So, take a step forward today and start living like special human beings who love the being before the doing. This will create little worlds of happiness and full of peace and love around you … the little heavens, which will create a beautiful paradise in the whole world.

Soul Sustenance 22-11-2018
--------------------------------------

Let’s Be Human Beings, Not Human Doings (Part 2)

Whenever you begin the day, look at everything and everyone around you and realize deeply that my education, my professional qualifications, my wealth and my role – all this and much more is not really mine. This is because you are a being full of peace, love and happiness, which is non-physical, first. And, all this expanse of physical belongings, people, close relationships and everything else, even your physical body – all of this, you have acquired later. The non-physical is controlling and running the physical. The non-physical is eternal and the physical is limited to this lifetime only.

Happiness is the primary quality that we are looking for. Also, we are looking for peace and love. As long as your consciousness is centered around the physical, all these three emotions will not be experienced by you permanently and forever. They will come and go. This is because everything physical is transient or changeable. One day your relationships are good and on another day there is a lack of co-operation and you feel less loved. Sometimes, everything is going smooth at the workplace and on another there is a pressure of uncompleted tasks and deadlines which make you feel peaceless. Also, at times your physical costume or body is healthy and running well and suddenly an illness arises and you lose your inner contentment and feeling of wellness. So, life is about twists and turns. When your consciousness is focused on your inner being, you are peaceful, loveful and happy at all times. This is because the foundation of your peace, love and happiness is not transient or changeable. Also, by looking at the eternal and inner self as the basis of your existence, you will not be affected by the situations outside. They will come and go and you will remain stable, because you are a source of peace, love and happiness and you will fill every situation of your life with them. The situations are no longer your source for them and you are no longer dependent on them to remain full of peace, love and happiness.

Soul Sustenance 21-11-2018
--------------------------------------

Let’s Be Human Beings, Not Human Doings (Part 1)

We are all special angels in this world born for a higher purpose. Have you ever wondered that apart from living a life from morning to night, full of actions like dressing up in the morning, going to work, cooking meals and going off to sleep at the end of the day, we also have a higher purpose in this lifetime? Take for e.g. a machine in your home like an air conditioner. It runs when we put it on and shuts down when we instruct it to. When it is not running, it remains idle without ever thinking that it could do something else. Does it have a higher purpose? No. Then one day comes when we discard it forever and it is abandoned. We all are human beings first and not human doings only. Human doings work from morning to night, performing different actions, without a higher purpose. Human beings have a higher purpose - to look after the being while performing actions necessary to life. So, let us not be a like a machine from today. When we step into our workplace or when we look after our home, family and friends, let us think and be aware that one day we will leave this body and take with us nothing. No financial success, professional achievement, beautiful relationship and looks and outer personality will go with you, when you are no longer in this physical costume or body.

So, pause for a minute this moment and look inwards. I love my son or daughter or husband or wife but one day they will no longer be with me, when I leave this physical costume. For me, the purpose of my life may be looking after them. But my higher purpose is looking after my inner self, my sanskaras, my inner being, which I will carry with me. So take an affirmation every morning – I choose to beautify my inner self in the complete day and give happiness to everyone I meet. I choose to be good at work but also work on my actions, which make me receive blessings from everyone. Also, I choose to be a mirror of goodness for everyone, in which people will see positivity and be inspired to become better human beings. Why?
Because you are special, a special human being and not an ordinary human doing!

Soul Sustenance & Message for the day 20-11-2018

--------------------------------------
Soul Sustenance 20-11-2018
--------------------------------------

Creating Positive Circumstances

Why do we find it so hard to create positive circumstances, a positive future in our life? One reason is we all have the tendency to spend most of our time in the past, reliving and replaying our memories. Look back on your average day and you may find that more than 3/4ths of your time is spent in the past (a lot of times without you realizing it). Not only do we try to relive the past, but we also attempt to change it! We attempt the impossible and, in so doing, we live in very small cycles where tomorrow tends to turn out similar to yesterday, and then we wonder why we do not have the power to change our lives. It feels like we do not have the will-power, we do not have the ability to change the circumstances in our lives, our destiny.

The past cannot be relived; it cannot be changed. The past is like a cupboard of old files. When you arrive at work every day, do you step into such a cupboard and spend the day there? The past is a great resource for learning and sometimes, a resource for useful information, but it is not a place to live. We can build on the old, but we cannot rewrite it. The future is the result of what we think, feel and do today. If today is the same as yesterday (because of constantly thinking about yesterday) then tomorrow will look and feel like yesterday and in this way we feel we are stuck in a web and we get frustrated. We need to let go of the past if we want the future to shape up positively, different from yesterday, which is negative at times! The past is past. Drop it and keep dropping it.

When there is the attention to bring benefit at each step that you take, you will find yourself in constant happiness.

Checking:At the end of each day, check if you are happy with all that you have done throughout the day. If there was a feeling of unhappiness, check if it was because the actions performed throughout the day were either ordinary or wasteful.

Practice: Whenever any important decision has to be made, practice asking yourself if the action that you are going to perform is going to bring benefit to yourself or others. When you make your decisions in this way you’ll find yourself in constant happiness.

Soul Sustenance & Message for the day 19-11-2018

--------------------------------------
Soul Sustenance 19-11-2018
--------------------------------------

The Energy Of Give And Take In Relationships

Love, more than any other virtue, is an extremely positive energy; it is an invisible prime mover and foundation of each one of our lives, a source of motivation and inspiration. People lacking love in their lives are normally lesser motivated and happier than those who have positive and healthy relationships full of love and an immense amount of love in their lives. But when the same energy of love, possessing immense positive potential, is negatively focused and is not used correctly, it leads to many dependencies which are negative in nature. How?

When you love someone, that could be your parents, your spouse, your children, your siblings, your friends, any relationship for that matter; there is a invisible and positive emotional and mental attraction between you and that person which keeps you connected to him/her, but the moment the love turns into attachment and becomes a dependency, that person starts dominating and controlling your inner world of thoughts, feelings and emotions and your mental and emotional freedom is lost. It is as if your inner world succumbs to the influence of the other person and you are no longer yourself. Everything that goes on inside you and that comes out of you has an impression of the other. This kind of love is not empowering, energizing and healing, because in this kind of love, over a period of time, desires, wants and expectations from the other start emerging. All these emotions place you in a mental mode of taking instead of giving. Also in such a kind of love, where love is mixed with a desire to possess, over a period of time you start wanting to control the other. From this control, you start exercising a power to influence the other. At first you are under their influence. As more attachment builds up, this is followed shortly by your desire to bring them under your submission and influence them. This is love that wants to take and not give. In this kind of relationship of love, there is suffering and sorrow. Even if joy exists, it is extremely short lived. Unconditional love or love that only wants to give and not take or expect, strengthens and is healing, it never hurts or inflicts pain on the other.

Become a constantly awakened lamp that brings light into the darkness.

Checking:When things don’t happen the right way, check what kind of thoughts you are having. Do you think, ‘things don’t happen the right way anymore… or people are like this anyway…’ etc.

Practice: Tell yourself everyday, ‘I am the lighted lamp which dispels the darkness around. When I show people the right way, everything will be all right too. I have to set the right example to those around me.’

Situation Proofing Yourself (Part 3)

Situation-proofing can be defined as: Keeping your consciousness free from the questions marks and the exclamation marks mentioned in yesterday’s message, over a long period of time. This is a powerful consciousness with little room for the negative or waste thought patterns. Such a positive consciousness carrying person then has a positive attitude. A positive attitude then influences our perception of problems and makes it positive. This finally leads to positive or correct words and actions which are required to solve the problem in front of us.

Thus, in short, our thoughts are the foundation of our perception. Negative perceptions stand on the foundation of thoughts of negativity which are filled with questions and exclamations created sometimes over a complete life time. Positive perceptions stand on the foundation of thoughts of positivity over a long period of time. It’s not just about that particular moment of time or creating positive thoughts at the time, when you have a difficult situation in your life. It’s a complete life period or a practice of many years or atleast a few months. The mind does not become powerful overnight. Its many different situations, achieving victory many times in keeping the mind positive in all those situations. This transforms and keeps the perception positive in circumstances that one is going to be faced with in the future. Thoughts of positivity are like clean water poured in the bucket of the mind which is used to creating thoughts of negativity, which are like unclean water in the bucket. A large volume of clean water or thoughts of positivity is required to be poured into the bucket so that the unclean water is completely replaced by the clear water of positive thoughts. So, pour positive and beautiful thoughts into your mind everyday for a few minutes through spiritual knowledge. And slowly over a period of time the question marks and exclamation marks in situations which confuse you and reduce your positive perception, will be removed. As a result you will become situation-proofed.

Pay constant attention and you can win over your weaknesses.

Checking:Think of any weakness that you had tried to work on. Check if you have worked on it with the same intensity and if you had kept constant attention to know the extent to which the weakness was working. Also check the loss that the weakness caused you.

Practice: Pick out any weakness that you want to work on and see that you work on it constantly, till you get over it. When you see the loss that you are experiencing you’ll be eager to overcome and win over your weakness.

Situation Proofing Yourself (Part 2)

A life without situations is like trying to live a life in an imaginary world, cut off from reality. There are two categories of people. One will make the situation smaller by having positive perceptions or ways of looking at the situation. The other will make the situation bigger than what it is by having negative perceptions. The negative perceptions are the first reasons for making an easy situation seemingly difficult or a difficult situation into a very difficult one. The negative perceptions stand on four pillars, the four questions - How? Why? When? What? Just remember the last time you were faced with a difficult situation, it was always one of these four questions or more than one on which your perceptions stood. If it’s all four, then the negative perceptions become the strongest and stand the tallest. And of course the other two exclamations (being surprised negatively) – the If! and the But! These raise the negative perceptions even higher and before you know the situation looks bigger than it is. On the other hand, if we are positive, we will rise above these questions and not create these two exclamations. This is situation-proofing. A situation is there but I have situation-proofed myself. Situation-proofing means I go beyond the influence of the situation by keeping these questions and exclamations away and not having any negative perceptions.

As we all know, the energy of our consciousness (or smriti in Hindi) flows into our attitudes (or vriti in Hindi) and shapes them. The energy of our attitudes flows into our perceptions or the way we look at real-life situations (drishti or drishtikon in Hindi) and shapes them. Finally the energy of our perceptions flows into our words and actions (or kriti in Hindi) and shapes them. This is the process that takes place in our mind and this is the process that is required to be completely understood before understanding how situation-proofing works. We shall explain that in tomorrow’s message.

When you experience all attainments, there’ll be no trace of negativity in you.

Checking:Check within yourself, if there is any kind of desire. Also check if you are aware of and have an experience of all that you have got. Where there is the experience of all attainments, there is no negativity.

Practice: At the end of each day, check what you have attained throughout the day. This practice enables you to be happy with what you have and also work with renewed enthusiasm for the next day which finishes your negativity.

Soul Sustenance 16-11-2018
--------------------------------------

Situation Proofing Yourself (Part 1)

We are always learning a lesson at every step of our lives. The real life situations are our hidden lessons which come to teach us something or the other in a short period of time and bring in front of us questions in the form of – How will I ever live a life without a loved one, lost due to death or due to differences in opinions or Why did this particular event ever have to happen to me like an illness or a sudden financial loss at the workplace or When will I achieve the desired success in a difficult scene full of events that challenge my mental security or What did I do in my past births the results of which I am seeing in the form of a loved one not looking at me with the love and respect that I deserve?

We all know what is water-proofing. A rain coat worn in the rain does that. Based on that, is a term situation-proofing. The situations are there. They will always be present from time to time. But you have to mould the way you live your life and make significant positive changes in the way you perceive difficult situations and become situation-proof. Situation-proof means you become free from the influence of the situations and free of worry. Life for all of us does involve different types of challenging situations. The situations will be sometimes in the form of a temporary rise of my own negative nature characteristic like anger or jealousy or ego; sometimes in the form of lack of respect by a work colleague. Also, there will sometimes be a challenging or difficult work task in any action; sometimes there will be difficult relationships with people and a clash of personalities of two people. And also at times, there will be a temporary setback in the physical body, etc.

Keep giving others and you’ll find your treasures increasing.

Checking:In your interactions with others during the day, check if you are expecting anything from others in any way. Your expectations could include physical help or understanding from others. Also check if you are able to give others without expecting.

Practice: Tell yourself that to give means to take because when you give happiness or love you get the same. If you want to take, you’ll only find yourself disappointed, because others are expecting from you too. But when you give, you find your own treasures multiplying.

A New Journey With A New Personality (Part 2)

Famous personalities are constantly sought after, in demand and remembered by many due to their specialties, may they be actors, gurus, sportsmen, politicians, founders of religions etc. Even in our daily lives, we tend to remember people with more specialties much more than the rest. God is the most complete and perfect personality that exists, but not a physical personality, a spiritual one. There is no one who is more specialty and virtue-filled than him. That is the reason he is an entity or living energy or personality who is remembered the most by each and everyone all over the world.

The above types of personalities mentioned are physical personalities and are remembered by some or many but not remembered by the rest and along with their specialties, they definitely have shortcomings. Also, you might find it difficult getting to meet them even for a few minutes. God is one personality without any weaknesses and he is my constant friend, once I start my journey. He is one who, although being the highest personality, can be available to thousands making a similar journey at the same time, not because he is omnipresent (present everywhere) but because he is omnipotent (the most powerful) and the only being possessing this capability. So, a specialty of this journey is that the more I progress on it and the more time I spend with this new personality accompanying me in my new journey, I constantly see new facets of this new personality being revealed in my life, which keeps the journey constantly refreshing. This also keeps me wondering what is going to be revealed next. So, once this journey of exploration and discovery has started, there's no reason to stop even for a second and there is immense amount of motivation to continue and keep smiling!

Finish the past and take the maximum benefit from the present.

Checking:When something goes wrong check how much time you are spending thinking of the past. Check if you are trying to find solutions or only wasting time thinking of the past. The more time you spend thinking of the past, you lose the present time too.

Practice: Every time you find yourself having waste thoughts of something from the past, turn your thoughts to the present and see how you can utilise your time by doing something at that moment instead of wasting time just thinking about what’s already happened.

A New Journey With A New Personality (Part 1)

Anyone who shows an inclination in getting to know the Supreme Being closely has a fascinating journey in front of them. Spiritual knowledge is the vehicle in which I make this extremely interesting journey full of exploration. Without sitting in the vehicle, I cannot make the journey. As I sit in this vehicle, I am introduced to this new, multi-faced, peaceful, loveful and blissful character in my life, a character who is spiritually rich with treasures of knowledge, virtues, powers, happiness and blessings, a character commonly called God, by everyone.

He is a character who introduces himself as being just a point of conscient light, a form very simple and plain. Yet, hidden beneath that simple light, incognito form is an immense volume of experience, wisdom and depth, such that even a lifetime spent in this journey, in his company, does not bring you to knowing him completely. The more you dive into the ocean of knowledge contained within the light, the more you discover and the more treasures of knowledge and experiences you receive. Every time you make contact with this new found companion called God, there is growth inside you and there is an increase of peace, love, happiness and power inside you. It's just as if after you've begun this journey, you're never quite the same again. However much time you spend in his company during the journey, whether it be in imbibing knowledge from him or remembering him during meditation or even sharing the benefits of this journey to other friends and relatives so that they can also start this journey themselves and experience what you are experiencing; whether you do either of these for a few minutes or an hour, there's always an experience of subtle growth and development inside you.

Bring about true change with a firm promise to yourself to change.

Checking:When you find that there is a need for you to change some aspect in yourself, check how strong your thought is. Check if your words are ‘I’ll try to change or is it I promise to myself I will change.’

Practice: Take any aspect that you would like to change in yourself and take a firm promise to really bring about the desired change. Also remind yourself of your promise each day so that it is further strengthened.

On A Spiritual Joyride (Part 6)

When we begin our spiritual journey, we should ensure that we don’t work on ourselves strictly. On the other hand, we should change ourselves with ease and lightness which gives us an experience of joy and does not let us get tired while making the effort to change ourselves. While looking at your weaknesses, do not feel disheartened that why they exist. Bringing about changes in your behavior and thinking is important but not at the cost of losing your happiness while doing that. Happiness is lost when there is sometimes loss of hope and doubts whether we will be able to succeed in changing ourselves or not, exist. In such cases, it is wise to be extremely patient and keep traveling on the path of self-change with determination and happiness, without getting tired.

Also, a spiritual path is one in which there are different types of negative scenes in the form of difficult situations. These situations try to prevent us from experiencing fulfillment and even try to prevent us from fulfilling our life’s aim of making ourselves perfect. Even in such cases, a spiritual joyride is one we have to experience because we have to accept that spirituality does not mean that there will be no difficult problems on our path. Only the power to cross the problems will increase inside us, which will make it easier for us as compared to before. Also, stress which is a common response to a difficult situation will be changed to contentment and life will no longer seem as difficult as before inspite of all the negative scenes. This in short is a description of how living a spiritual life is the easiest and most enjoyable type of journey one could undertake for shaping up a new you and also inspiring others with that inner change.

Success is achieved when there is no consciousness of mine.

Checking:During the whole day, in all the tasks that you do which involves others, check if you are able to do it smoothly and harmoniously and if you are satisfied. Whenever you find yourself failing check if you are having the consciousness of ‘mine’ or that of ‘ours’.

Practice: In both your thoughts and your words, let there be the word ‘our’ instead of ‘mine’. The more you involve others in this way, you’ll find yourself getting the good wishes of others and you’ll be successful.

On A Spiritual Joyride (Part 5)

Life without the love of God is like a tree without leaves. Love fills our life with enthusiasm and a lot of energy and we feel motivated to achieve in every sphere of life on a spiritual and emotional level also, and not only on a physical level. Spirituality is itself an independent segment of life with its own challenges both in the field of self progress and in the field of giving all that you possess to others. Giving is called spiritual service at the Brahma Kumaris. So, everything you do from the morning to night is filled with love and you do it with lot of power and dedication and without getting bored. So, experiencing enjoyment while working in your workplace or while dealing with people in your family, becomes extremely easy.

Also, the way of loving each one in a pure manner and without any expectations comes in every relationship. There are people in the world who are very good at dealing with people with a lot of love and are well known for this specialty. Such people, when asked about their secret of success, will commonly tell you that they are very good at thinking correctly and manage their thoughts well. Such people can deal with people of different personalities and even manage them positively. This is something that becomes easy to do after taking a spiritual birth or being a student of spirituality. Spirituality fills you with the power to think only what is necessary and as per the requirements of a particular situation and not create any negative and unnecessary thoughts.

Practice: Each morning, take a strong thought, ‘I am powerful and I perform each task with this awareness. Even when things go wrong I don’t forget what I originally am.’ When you practice in this way, you’ll not change your mood with the changing circumstances.

On A Spiritual Joyride (Part 4)

A spiritual childhood begins with a birth in the lap of God, in which the soul goes through a transformation or change and experiences a new turning point in its life. After that, life starts giving you beautiful rewards. Rewards like an increase in levels of happiness, a mind filled with peace, lots of spiritual strength, purity in thoughts, words and actions and also change in one’s personality. Life starts changing as situations no longer hurt your consciousness and give you sorrow as before. Also, the ability to give different shapes or mindsets to your consciousness when faced with different types of challenges in life and overcoming them is something we learn when we take this new birth. The birth is as a spiritual child of the Supreme Father and Mother, whom we commonly call God.

Spirituality means a life filled with God’s love and at the same time a pure consciousness which means a spiritual love for others, which becomes a source of happiness and also brings about lightness. Pure love shared with others, also brings freedom from an unstable life in which sometimes you experience joy, but the joy many times brings with it sorrow. Also, life stops being a roller coaster ride in which there is always insecurity about what will happen next. Also, the different relationships with the one Father of the soul or God fills the self with different types of spiritual attainments. At the same time these different experiences with God give you a lot of fulfillment. Also, you like sharing these attainments with others and also bringing others on the spiritual joyride with you.

Practice: Each day practice telling yourself , “ this task is easy and I can do it. I will succeed, I only need to put in a little more effort than I am already doing.” When you practice in this way you will find yourself doing things with ease.

On A Spiritual Joyride (Part 3)

Spirituality is a beautiful and fulfilling life which everyone in the world needs to adopt and it is not only for people who have an interest in religion or are spiritually inclined already.
Spirituality gives the power of relieving yourself of all mental pressures and it also teaches us the way of keeping our thoughts, words and actions in check. Both of these are necessary for being successful. Also, spirituality does not mean leaving material comforts of life and lead a life which is away from the world. On the other hand, it changes our relationship with material comforts and makes us less attached to them. This helps us experience permanent joy. On the other hand an attachment to material comforts can give sorrow also at times. So, never hesitate to sit on the joyride of spirituality, as we call it, because life and the relationships and roles that we play and the way we play them changes after doing that. Ask someone who is spiritual and loves leading a life according to spiritual principles. Such a person will tell you how lightness and contentment along with the power to handle situations and also the ability to change your thinking from negative to positive, are some of the benefits of a spiritual life.

Also, talking about relationships; there are people, whose relationships were disturbed. A spiritual life gave them the method of living their life with love, immense happiness and power and they overcome the problems in their relationships easily. This is because of their change in ways of thinking and as a result they could resolve the difficult situations in relationships because of ego clashes and differences of opinions.

Practice: Each day practice telling yourself, “like the lotus flower which remains beautiful even in muddy water, I too can be the best wherever I am.” When you practice this you will not run away from things, but will be able to put in your best.

On A Spiritual Joyride (Part 2)

Variety in life is an important way to sustain a spiritual journey which many of us are on. Meditation is a technique which is being practiced by millions of people all over the world. At the Brahma Kumaris, people from many countries practice meditation in their daily lives. At the same time, as per the knowledge shared by God, they take care that meditation does not become just like a daily routine. Everyday meditation is done with different types of positive thoughts. In this way, spirituality is like a fun filled joyride in which different experiences become a daily part of your life. Also everyone at the Brahma Kumaris will not study spiritual knowledge only when they are alone or at home. They will also visit one of the centres of the Brahma Kumaris daily for an hour, wherever they are. And they will listen to spiritual knowledge in a gathering. The intention behind this type of practice, besides better understanding of the knowledge, is an increase in enthusiasm by sitting with people of the same mindset. Also, you gain from their spiritual power, which is called the power of the gathering.

Spirituality also brings with it the duty of sharing all that you listen and learn, with others, which also increases your enthusiasm. Along with sharing, which we call service at the Brahma Kumaris, there is great importance given to changing oneself positively. This is a way of going ahead in life on an emotional level. This is because changing oneself automatically causes a positive energy of change to flow in my words and actions, which further flows to others causing an increase in enthusiasm in oneself. This is the spiritual joyride on which we sit everyday and wait for the next day with a lot of interest.

--------------------------------------

On A Spiritual Joyride (Part 1)

A very important aspect of our lives is variety. Variety means doing a lot of different things in life which increase our enthusiasm and joy. It means loving every moment of the day by making it different. Whenever you have spent many days in your life doing one particular thing or working on one particular task, ask yourself am I becoming single task oriented? Or do I, while performing the task, also take care that my work is accompanied by periods of creative activities like reading, meditating, interacting and spreading all that I know, to others and learning more than I know now?

There was once a king who loved the role he was playing and also gave a lot of love to the people he ruled. There was no one in his kingdom who did not like him or respect him but yet boredom was something he had to face repeatedly. The same routine was something he experienced everyday and he did not know how to overcome that. So, one day, he decided to spend a fixed time everyday talking to people in his kingdom discussing the problems that they were facing. And also, he started fixing small targets in his life, like ensuring that by this particular day, this particular work will get done which can also be termed as goal setting. He realized soon that by filling his life with the flavor of ambition, which in small amounts, is extremely useful for progress, his life was no longer repetitive. In fact, life became something he enjoyed, as long as the ambition was kept in limits and he did not overcome over-ambitious, which could lead to stress. Love for each task you perform and at the same time different tasks during the day is the secret to a happiness filled life. A spiritual perspective to variety in life is filling your mind with new thoughts everyday and maintaining a pure and positive mindset. At the same time, let this positive mindset or consciousness be differently positive everyday, by giving the mind new instructions everyday.

Light The Lamp Within (Part 2)

A Special Message on Diwali

Lighting Diyas or Lamps made of clay is the most significant aspect of Diwali. A single diya holds infinite beauty and removes darkness. Spiritually, what is the darkness that we need to remove? It is of our ego and ignorance. The clay which the Diya is made of, represents our physical body. The wick represents our true identity as a soul. Oil signifies the knowledge that we are all souls whose original qualities are peace, love, joy, purity, power, bliss and wisdom. We need to keep adding oil to ensure that the flame is burning. It means we need to keep applying divine qualities in our every thought, word and action so we the souls remain illuminated. This light of knowledge gives us the power to light up other souls. Another important message is that flame (representing soul) remains the same, regardless of the Diya. It burns the same way and gives the same brightness. This implies that we the souls are all equal, regardless of our appearance, status, gender, nationality or religion.

Bursting firecrackers is a message to burn and finish past hurt. Like one flame can burst an entire chain of crackers, similarly one thought – Past is finished, can end burdens of the past pain we have been carrying. It makes forgiveness and acceptance easier. Holding resentment makes us emotionally weak and we are bound to thoughts about them. When we let go, we set our mind free. Businessmen settle old financial accounts and begin new ones. It is symbolic that we settle our old karmic accounts by resolving conflicts forgiving each other and forge relationships with vibrations of love, trust and respect.

When we celebrate the festival this way, we win over the darkness of our ego and ignorance, and light the lamp of divine knowledge within. We return to Self-Sovereignty and rule over our inner world. That is when we truly invoke the divinity of Sri Lakshmi in ourselves. It means we welcome new ways of thinking, living, behaving, being and becoming – to experience abundant happiness, health and harmony.

Message for the day 07-11-2018

The one who does not wait for others to change to bring a change in the self is the one who really brings benefit to others.

Checking:Think of all the things you would like to change but are not able to. Now ask yourself why you are not able to bring about a change – is it because you are waiting for others to change before you change yourself.

Practice: Take any one thing that you would like to change and tell yourself, “ I will change and seeing me the others will change too. I am the leader who inspires others to change, I will not wait for others.”
