Positive Thought Based Living (Part 3)
A very easy technique of radiating good wishes at the level of the mind is looking at others as a spiritual being of light i.e. looking at the spiritual form of others. The soul is a spiritual energy which constantly radiates energy to the world. When I look at the star like form of others which is the form of the soul at the centre of the forehead, which is the same as my spiritual form, I radiate my original qualities of purity, peace, love and joy to others. It’s like empowering others with my vision. This again is to be done in complete humility and remembering that the other person is my soul brother and we are children of one Spiritual Father and Supreme Soul – God and we share a common bond with Him. Also, since we are children of the one Father, we have the same original sanskars or qualities mentioned above. Every day you meet so many people. Look at them as soul brothers at the centre of the forehead – the sparkling star of spiritual energy, full of pure qualities. This way they will return what you share with them through your vision. God looks at all of us with this type of vision. God has the knowledge of your physical body or role but always looks at your star like spiritual form or the soul, which is your eternal form. The physical costume which we call the human body and the role we play is temporary and keeps changing.
Lastly, never think negative for any person. The busier we become, the more negative we get at times for others because we do not have time for introspection or looking inwards. Very often, we have got into the habit of having a negative mindset especially when we talk to our loved ones or close ones about others. We commonly say such and such person is not so nice and we mention some negative personality characteristic or weakness of the other person or a certain negative way in which he or she has behaved. So common this is. You come home from office and talk to your family members about all the negative things that took place in your office and all the negative behaviors of everyone there. And all that you talk or discuss far away from the other person on a physical level but it all travels to others on a non-physical level, which creates barriers in relationships. So think positive and think good, spread the energy of positivity to others all the time and enjoy what we call positive thought based living.
Positive Thought Based Living (Part 2)
Blessings from every person you meet will make your life more beautiful and free of difficult situations. Living a life of giving joy to others through the simplest possible ways like a smile or a warm greeting or a gesture of appreciation is a beautiful way of gathering blessings from everyone. It is said very commonly – give blessings and take blessings. That means the more you keep good wishes for others the more full of good wishes you will be which you will receive back from others. A good practice whenever you meet someone is to ensure that you have shared something with the other person e.g. If a person comes to you and he is lacking love, just look at him and create a pure and positive thought in your mind that this person will experience his original quality of love and share the same with others. Do this with a humble consciousness. This is like giving a blessing to the other. This will inspire the other person to change and imbibe the quality of love which he is lacking. You may think this won’t work, but the power of a positive thought created by you is immense, which can transform the other person completely. After all our thought energy does touch the other person’s consciousness on a subtle level. It’s like whispering into the other’s ears a message of pure love which he is lacking, listening to which is an inspiration for him to change himself. In the same way, if someone has a habit of becoming angry very easily and you pass her on a particular day on the street, look at her and send her a good wish that you will experience lots of peace which is your original sanskar. These are blessings which work magically. Powerful thoughts have immense power, much more than words.
The pure love that you carry in this incognito way for others is like a healing balm for others which can make people more beautiful and bring them closer to you. Try giving a good wish to every person you meet in the day for one week. This way you will see how all your relationships with people become more beautiful and how everyone around you start becoming better individuals. It’s a beautiful practice.

Positive Thought Based Living (Part 1)
Living in a world of high speed and actions in our everyday lives, we need to spend a few minutes everyday looking at how much time did we spend in the day in giving and spreading the fragrance of our specialties and loving each one whom we meet, with a big heart. Always see and check whether each action of yours is dedicated to the benefit of others and not only for benefiting the self. We all know and realize that the day to day routine includes work tasks of different types but life is also about giving and receiving from others all that’s beautiful in life like peace, love and happiness. It’s fine to be over involved with work but even in that work there are some people who are more in touch with their inner goodness. Some will make it a point to share good things with others in the form of good words while talking to them and good gestures while interacting with them. Some people will make it a point to share with others, something good over email or through any other social media before starting their daily routine at office or even the regular work at home if they are not working.
So, life isn’t all about working hard for a living but living a value based life and spreading the fragrance of values to others. Values are not to be kept within you but shared with others and distributed with a big heart. There are some people who will put up some good thoughts and spiritual words everyday in their homes or at some place in their office where everyone can read them, take inspiration from them, bring them into practice and also inspire others with them. This is called positive thought based living and not just plain living which many people in the world indulge in. Live life to the fullest and enjoy it but not at the cost of giving up values. Let every person whom you come in contact with, feel you are different not only in terms of personality and skills but also in terms of your basic nature and the virtues or qualities you possess. Then the world will become a beautiful place to live in and we will be like one big family closely knit together in a bond of pure love and happiness.

It’s The Final Moments Of The World Drama
The World Drama is an act all souls play on planet Earth in which there are four phases - Satyug or Golden Age, Tretayug or Silver Age, Dwaparyug or Copper Age and Kaliyug or Iron Age. Because souls are eternal, this Drama is eternal. It keeps repeating again and again and souls play their respective many roles in the Drama by taking many births. Also, the most beautiful role in the World Drama is played by God at the end of the Iron Age. He is the One who transforms the Iron Age into the Golden Age and fills all souls and nature again with positive and pure spiritual energy, and the Drama begins fresh on a new note. So where are we now, at what point of time in the Drama? We are at that point of time, when God is playing His role in the World Drama and He is creating the Golden Age. These are the final moments of the Drama of four phases. What should we do at this point of time?
1. We go inwards and reflect on our journey of four phases that we have covered. We visualize every phase based on what wisdom God has shared with us. It’s time to return back to the Soul World and prepare for a new journey ahead, after coming down from the Soul World, where the soul will rest for a short period of time.
2. We have learnt from God that everything was good in our sanskars, in our health and wealth and in our relationships and roles in the first two phases. Then we came down in all of these in the next two phases because we came under the influence of bodily attractions and physical attachments. Let us not make the same mistakes again and perform beautiful and positive actions only.
3. Let us listen to God's spiritual wisdom and feel and experience what He says. Let us also experience God as a Supreme Being Of Light and connect with Him in meditation in the Spiritual World of Silence, the eternal Home of all souls - the Soul World. This will make the soul 100% pure again.
4. It is the end of one journey in the World Drama and we now begin the next journey in which we need the soul to be full of all qualities and powers and beautiful sanskars for the Golden Age and even after that. Let us be in the company of God constantly and fill ourselves with all of these again, which we have lost in this journey over a period of time.
Let’s Co-operate, Not Compete
True co-operation means extending unconditional support to everyone in every situation, with a feeling of belongingness and an intention of empowerment. It strengthens our original qualities of humility, love, compassion and empathy, thereby helping us overcome negative sanskars of ego, jealousy, resentment and competition. Co-operation often does not need us to do anything, we just need to be our self - calm and stable. Our vibrations give co-operation and support to ease people around us and make those moments a beautiful experience for them. Our vibrations help them to emerge their divinity in response to situations.
Co-operation is an antidote to Competition. Many of us have lived with the belief that life is a competition. We created stress, anger, jealousy, hatred and at time had to compromise on our ethics to get ahead of people. Let us internalize and finalize today - we are not in competition with anyone. Each one receives a result of their past and present karmas. Each one is getting what is fair for them. We can enhance our achievements only in reference to our self not in reference to others. When we co-operate or help someone we experience enormous satisfaction and contentment, increasing soul power. We also earn blessings from the person who received our co-operation. If we reject people because our sanskars or opinions differ, our energy of love, sharing and caring gets blocked. Whenever we co-operate let us check our intention behind the act - whether we expect to get something in return. If so, the energy of cooperation gets adulterated with the energy of greed. Also, we need to check for ego or a feeling of being superior to the person who receives our co-operation. Ego dilutes the energy. By accepting and adjusting with different sanskars, by sharing and caring, we are radiating pure vibrations into the world. Our vibrations are influencing the collective consciousness of the world. When we change, the world changes.
Is Reincarnation A Reality?
We are all spiritual beings or souls playing our respective roles through our respective bodies. We all feel ourselves spiritually when we think and visualize and act in different ways through our behavior, based on our nature or sanskars (habits). Also, its a commonly accepted reality that we change physical costumes or bodies from time to time and come in the cycle of birth and rebirth. This is called reincarnation. At the same time, there are many people in the world who do not believe in reincarnation and feel this is just an imagination and life is only a physical phenomenon and all thinking and visualizing is done by the brain and not the soul. They also believe that sanskars or nature are nothing but physical genes inherited from our parents, who give us birth and they are not carried by the soul.
Spirituality gives us the important learning that God is also a spiritual energy like us and He does not come in the cycle of birth and rebirth. He constantly stays in the soul world and only comes down once on Earth, when the world loses its spiritual energy and degrades in qualities. God fills the Earth and all souls who play their part on Earth with his spiritual qualities and uplifts the world again. He transforms the Iron Age or Kaliyug to the Golden Age or Satyug, which is also called Swarg or Heaven. God gives the knowledge of reincarnation when He comes down on Earth and reveals to us how souls play their roles through different physical costumes, from the beginning of the Golden Age to the end of the Iron Age and then again back to the Golden Age after God purifies the souls. This cycle from the Golden Age to the Iron Age repeats again and again.
Your Mind Is Your Inner Child
The mind is like our child. Even as we go about fulfilling our responsibilities, priority needs to be the well-being of this child within. We need to nourish it, love it and comfort it. People believe they have lost control over their mind and wish to control other people’s minds to feel powerful. Our mind is the only entity in our control. A little attention and love will discipline this inner child.
1. Like you remain connected to your children always, be connected to your mind and guide it at every step. While fulfilling responsibilities like household work, family, career and health, your priority should be the child within.
2. This inner child may not be in your control only because it is not taught how to think or how much to think. Meditate and read spiritual messages daily, it becomes a source for the mind to create right thoughts.
3. While taking care of your responsibilities, the child might start crying – which means it is irritated, angry, jealous, scared or hurt. Withdraw for a minute from whatever you are doing to silence the child. Teach your mind to be powerful when people are not fair to you, to forget the past and to think nice for all.
4. Discipline this child with love, not force or harshness. When you understand your mind, understanding others becomes simple. While dealing with others, you are dealing with the child within them.
Self Conversations And Their Significance
A very important subtle activity that we all indulge in for a lot of time in the day is having conversations with the self, sometimes consciously and a large number of times without even being conscious of it. We need to be extremely careful about what the quality of our conversations are because self conversations very strongly influence our perception i.e. the way we see ourselves, others, situations as well as our personalities and also mould them. If channeled properly, they can be constructive i.e. ones that empower the self; if not, they can be destructive i.e. ones that bring the self down or weaken it in some way or the other. They possess immense potential, both positive and negative, if we want we can use them to liberate us or they can even limit us. We can judge, criticize and threaten ourselves or praise and encourage the self in a positive way. It's important to create thoughts of acceptance, respect and approval for ourselves, even if situations don't go the way we desire or expect. Such positive conversations help rise above the dependence on what how people see us and what they think and talk about us, making the self extremely powerful.
Positive self conversations are not fantasies or disconnecting from reality and a few minutes given to the activity do a lot of benefit and no harm at all. They can be done by detaching oneself from actions when we have an emerged conversation and our complete focus is on the conversation and we do nothing else at that time or whilst being involved in actions. Some actions like going on a drive, cooking, having a meal or simply taking a walk or going on a jog allow self-conversations to take place alongside. At these times we give less mental energy or attention to the conversations i.e. we can have a merged conversation so that the respective action is not affected adversely in any way. We can choose how much mental energy to give to the activity, depending on the karma alongside.
5 Steps For Connecting Children With God
1. Introduce Children To The Wisdom Of The Soul And God - Children have an impressionable mind. Whatever you teach them they absorb easily. So its very important to teach them from an early age, about the existence of the soul and the Supreme Soul and their form, qualities, spiritual home and what they do in the World Drama. This will make them spiritually intelligent.
2. Teach Children How To Create A Place For God In Their Life - In the present world and environment, it is very easy for children to get influenced negatively and either not give importance to God or think He is just an imagination, which are common beliefs. So they need to be trained to remember God in the morning and before sleeping and also keep God with them in every action in the day.
3. Show Children The Path To Life Success By Holding God's Hand - Children have many goals related to studies, exams, relationships, personality, health, sports and hobbies. By holding God's hand, these goals can be reached easily. So children should be motivated to learn meditation and use their inner powers for success in every sphere of life.
4. Create A Collective Positive Consciousness At Home - A good spiritual practice is collective reading or listening of spiritual wisdom by the entire family every morning for at least 15 minutes. Children should be taught to remember the spiritual wisdom the entire day and follow it.
5. Teach Children To Keep A Diary And Donate Their Weaknesses - Parents should teach their children to tell God about their life and write about their specialties and weaknesses in a diary. Also, they should be trained to donate whatever weaknesses they have to God and create new qualities. This will make them emotionally wise and bring them closer to God.
The Beauty Of Christmas – A Festival Of Love And Joy (Part 3)
6. Lastly, Christmas brings together everyone in a united bond of love and joy and everyone remembers God and promises God that they will never hurt anyone and create togetherness in the world and also take inspiration from the teachings of Jesus Christ, a pure soul, who reminded everyone of God and said that God is the Supreme Divine Light and the Highest One. Jesus Christ stood for wisdom and truth and gave the world the light of goodness and spread goodness to everyone.
So, let us all celebrate Christmas in the remembrance of God and bring its spiritual essence in our lives. The Supreme Being or the Spiritual Pole Star, who is the Heavenly Godfather and the One who is constant in qualities eternally, says that the New World will soon become a reality and we will enter into that world with a divine personality, similar to God’s. This is remembered in the Bible as – God created man in His own image. So let us be connected to God and share the message of God with everyone. This is God’s message to all of us – Become pure and divine like me by listening to the wisdom I share and by remembering me through the process of meditation, in which you concentrate on my pure and divine point form in the pure soul world, which exists beyond the Universe and the world of five elements.
The Beauty Of Christmas – A Festival Of Love And Joy (Part 2)
3.Also, Christmas reminds us of beautiful angels with wings and a divine wand in their hands. Wings symbolize the angelic and light stage of the mind, which is experienced through purity and soul-consciousness and the divine wand is a symbol of positive blessings which we receive from God and then share with each and every soul in the world. Also, we as angels, at the present time, whisper the divine message of Godly wisdom to everyone and awaken them from the sleep of spiritual ignorance. Angels are shown with a halo or pure aura around their face or over their head, which is a sign of an awakened consciousness.
4.Christmas also involves exchanging gifts and merry making along with special meals together. All these festivities have a spiritual significance and symbolic of we as human beings sharing the gifts of goodness and Godly beauty, which we have imbibed from God, amongst each other and enjoying ourselves while doing that. Also, at the same time enjoying beautiful food for thought or spiritual wisdom, which God feeds our intellect with everyday and makes us spiritually healthy and strong with it.
5.Christmas reminds us that God is with us and we should celebrate each day in Godly love and His constant company and remain spiritually intoxicated and become very sweet like God and radiate that sweetness through every thought, word and action to everyone.

*The Beauty Of Christmas – A Festival Of Love And Joy (Part 1)*
Christmas is a festival of love and joy and brings together everyone in a beautiful spirit full of bonding and togetherness.
1.Christmas reminds us of God and His pure actions of creating a new world tree, full of beautiful attainments which all human beings enjoy and also share with each other, without any sense of ego or false ownership over them. This is the world that God is creating at the present time in which there is immense unity, equality and respect amongst each other and no sense of superiority and inferiority in human beings. God is shown on the Christmas tree as a big star on top of the tree and human souls are shown as small stars on the branches of the tree and attainments are shown as the decoration on the tree, which all human souls receive from God. God is shown on top because He lives in the soul world above and the world tree exists on Earth below.
2.Santa Claus is a very important figure in Christmas celebrations and He symbolizes God – the Supreme Father of all souls, who visits us at this time in the night of humanity, when there is a fall in human values, principles and goodness in the world and He distributes to all human beings in the world the gifts of peace, love, joy and wisdom. It is said that in the night before Christmas day, which is on December 25th, Santa Claus visits people from the North Pole of this physical world, which is very far away and where he stays. This represents God visiting us at the present time from the soul world, which is also very far away and exists beyond the physical world. The soul world is the spiritual world where God stays and also where all human souls originally stay, before coming down on Earth to play a part in this physical world. Santa Claus is said to come down chimneys of houses in the night to leave his gifts for children, which represents God’s incarnation in the dark old world of the present times. The spiritual gifts that God gives us, bring a new morning in the world – a beautiful Heaven or Golden Age, in which everything is perfect, pure and positive and there is nothing in the new world which any human beings lack or desire.

Keeping The Watchman Of Attention Alert
All the religions and spiritual groups place a lot of importance on the virtue of discipline. Without discipline you do not manage to transform negative habits and you do not create a new state of awareness where the self is nourished through the experience of spirituality. Every day you eat, you brush your teeth, bathe, drink water and breathe, and all of this you do not consider a discipline; you have adopted them as something natural in order for your body to continue working properly. On a spiritual level you also need to nourish yourself and to have a discipline that, with practice, a time comes when it becomes natural because you make it a part of your life. In the process of change you need to discipline yourself in order not to let old habits come back. Until you have burnt the old habits and they have died, you should keep the watchman of attention alert in order to maintain your self-control, given that each time you use a negative habit in action, you strengthen it. When you do not use it, you allow it to die.
The path of the spiritual traveller is therefore one of waking (awareness of self as soul) and sleeping (under the illusion that we are our body), waking and sleeping. We tend to fluctuate between the two (like dawn and dusk) until we find stability in soul-consciousness. This is why it is important to awaken and stay awake, and this is why it's important to give our mind and intellect good spiritual food (spiritual wisdom) and exercise (meditation) every day to keep them fresh and alert. Being conscious of the soul, acting from that consciousness, the scars (habits and tendencies) left by past actions based on illusions of bodily awareness are healed. Discipline is necessary for spiritual growth and personal transformation if you want to obtain satisfying and permanent results. If not, the old habits continue to rule in your life. The evidence that our discipline in the practice of meditation is working is mental lightness, an increasing easiness in our interactions with others and success in everything we do.
Awakening The Positivity Within (Part 3)
In yesterday’s message, we have already shared examples of situations which are self-created. These situations are created by my own mind, sometimes triggered by an external situation and sometimes there is no external event responsible for the situation. Then there are other situations of the physical body, relationship based situations and situations related to my workplace and home. All these situations are partly external and partly internal i.e. there is an external event present which is a reality and cannot be overlooked. This is true except in many cases when the situation is perceived as a situation but that is just a perception of a person with a negative perception, but in reality the situation does not exist. In all other cases, the situation is present and that is a fact accepted by even a person with a positive perception. Depending on how we perceive the situation, how we react to it and what thoughts we create on seeing it, the situation becomes big or small in our own mind first. But there is another aspect – sometimes some life situations are threatening in nature and can disturb the most powerful of souls. Of course the intensity of the fear varies from person to person depending on the perception. A calm mind with a powerful intellect can face all these situations. Also, techniques like meditation which are taught by the Brahma Kumaris will help you in doing that.
Meditation is a process of thought training - just like a cricketer will practice very carefully how he will time each ball that he faces to achieve the desired result of a run or runs scored. In the same way, I learn how to give each thought of mine value and create only positive thoughts for those few minutes of meditation. These positive thoughts are based on spiritual knowledge and are thoughts about the spiritual self and the Supreme Being. These positive thoughts are created very slowly, step by step and carefully. This meditation practice of about a few minutes everyday is our training for actual negative situations. Then, due to this practice, we remain calm and create only positive thoughts and keep the negative thoughts away which cause disturbances in our mind.
