Daily Positive Thoughts: July 24, 2013: Give and Take

Give and Take

Whatever you give comes back to you. Whatever you take will not stay with you.

Acceptance is the secret of contentment.

Appreciation is the secret of happiness.

Freeing Myself of My Inner Darkness (Meditation)

Breathe deeply... Become serene and feel a sensation of peace and wellbeing inside yourself... Now have a conversation with yourself...

I sit down comfortably, like an observer in silence. I stop paying attention to everything around me: objects, people, responsibilities, places...

I centre my mind on the present moment... The serenity, the peacefulness, wrap around me... In this calm I can see the dark corners of my inner being... They are like shadows... I see the fears, the anxieties, the guilt, the bitterness, the selfishness, the unhappiness... They are weaknesses that lie in some corner of me...

I accept that there are these dark areas within me... I observe them and I realize that I am not that darkness, I am not that weakness; it is not real; it is like a shadow...

I focus now on what is real; all my energy concentrates itself in the centre of my forehead and I visualize the energy centered like a point of light... It is a star of love, of peace, of wellbeing, of contentment...

I only have to access these original qualities and allow these energies to strengthen my soul... To do so, I continue to observe with calm, with patience... I don't allow my mind to judge or analyse what is happening to me... Everything that has happened to me forms part of the past... I have learned from my mistakes... I forgive myself... I forgive others...

The Benefits Of Soul Consciousness

The following differences between body consciousness and soul consciousness, will make you realize the benefits of soul consciousness (the practice of meditation make us soul conscious):

In Body Consciousness: I am in bondage (not free).
In Soul Consciousness: There are no bondages, I am free.

In Body Consciousness: I have many questions and few answers.
In Soul Consciousness: I understand everything that I do.

In Body Consciousness: I am afraid of dying (losing the body).
In Soul Consciousness: I know I am eternal (the soul is beyond birth and death) and there is no fear of death.

In Body Consciousness: I have no control over sense organs e.g. eyes, ears, tongue, etc..
In Soul Consciousness: I am able to practice self-control.

Message for the day

To be seated on the seat of self-respect is to use virtues in life.

Projection: It usually seems very difficult to use the virtues within us when the people around are not doing so. At such times using negativity seems much easier. In spite of not having that particular weakness predominantly, say of anger, when there is provocation from the outside we tend to react with that weakness.

Solution: In order to free ourselves from weaknesses and work with the virtues within us we need to make sure we are seated on the seat of self-respect. For this we need to recognise and appreciate some speciality within us. When we are in the awareness of this speciality of ours, we will be able to stabilize ourselves in the state of our self-respect.

Bapdada gives vardaan to the entire Brahmin family spread all over the world. Baba also remarked in the murli, dated 7-1-2012 that serviceable children will make cartoons after listening to the murli. Visualization makes remembrance of the blessing throughout the day easier and thus makes it more fruitful.

Essence:Sweet children, take shrimat from Shiv Baba at every step.

Give all your news to the Father through Brahma.

Question: Why is it that, while being children of the one Father, some children have intellects filled with love whereas others have intellects with no love?

Answer: The children who maintain full connection with BapDada, those who have no doubt in their intellects about any aspect and who relate their true charts to Shiv Baba through Brahma are the ones with loving intellects. However, if you sulk with Brahma or your Brahmin teacher, due to any reason, and do not write to Baba, because you think that you have no connection with Brahma and that you only have to remember Shiv Baba, it means that Maya has caught hold of your intellect. Such ones are those who have intellects with no love.

Song: My heart says thanks to the One who has given me support!….
Essence for dharna:

1. In order to remain constantly happy and content, take advice from the Father at every step. Remember Shiv Baba through Brahma and also continue to give Him your news.

2. Never develop doubt about any aspect. Don’t sulk with your Brahmin teacher or Father Brahma and thereby stop studying. Keep your intellect constantly full of love.
Blessing:May you be free from all jamelas (chaos of a circus) and experience perfection through the reward of completion.

At the confluence age, the Ocean is not separate from the Ganges and the Ganges are not separate from the Ocean. It is at this time that the mela of the merging of the rivers into the Ocean takes place. Those who stay in this mela become free from all jamelas. However, only those who become equal are able to experience this mela (meeting). To become equal means to merge. Those who are constantly merged in love experience perfection and the reward of completion. They have no desire for any temporary reward.

Slogan:Remain constantly in the elevated company of the one Father and you will become the holiest and the highest.

मुरली सार:- ''मीठे बच्चे-कदम-कदम पर शिवबाबा की श्रीमत लेनी है, अपना सब समाचार ब्रह्मा द्वारा बाप को देना है''

प्रश्न:- एक बाप के बच्चे होते भी कोई प्रीत बुद्धि हैं, कोई विपरीत बुद्धि हैं - कैसे?

उत्तर:- जो बच्चे अपना पूरा कनेक्शन बापदादा से रखते हैं,किसी बात में संशयबुद्धि नहीं बनते हैं, सच्चा-सच्चा पोतामेल ब्रह्मा के थ्रू शिवबाबा को सुनाते हैं वह हैं प्रीत बुद्धि बच्चे। अगर किसी भी बात से ब्रह्मा या ब्राह्मणी से रूठ जाते, चिट्ठी नहीं देते और सोचते-हमारा ब्रह्मा से कोई कनेक्शन नहीं, शिवबाबा को ही याद करना है तो उनकी बुद्धि को माया पकड़ लेती है। वह हैं जैसे विपरीत बुद्धि।

गीत:- मुझको सहारा देने वाले........

धारणा के लिए मुख्य सार:-

1) सदा खुश राज़ी रहने के लिए कदम-कदम पर बाप से राय लेनी है। शिवबाबा को ब्रह्मा के थ्रू याद करना है। अपना समाचार देते रहना है।

2) कभी भी किसी बात में संशय नहीं उठाना है। ब्राह्मणी से या ब्रह्मा बाप से रूठकर पढ़ाई नहीं छोड़नी है। सदा प्रीत बुद्धि रहना है।

वरदान:- सम्पूर्णता द्वारा सम्पन्नता की प्रालब्ध का अनुभव करने वाले सर्व झमेलों से मुक्त भव

संगमयुग पर सागर गंगा से अलग नहीं, गंगा सागर से अलग नहीं। इसी समय नदी और सागर के समाने का मेला होता है। जो इस मेले में रहते हैं वह सर्व झमेलों से मुक्त हो जाते हैं। लेकिन इस मेले का अनुभव वही कर सकते हैं जो समान बनते हैं। समान बनना अर्थात् समा जाना। जो सदा स्नेह में समाये हुए हैं वह सम्पूर्णता और सम्पन्नता की प्रालब्ध का अनुभव करते हैं। उन्हें कोई भी अल्पकाल के प्रालब्ध की इच्छा नहीं रहती।

स्लोगन:- सदा एक बाप के श्रेष्ठ संग में रहो तो होलीएस्ट और हाइएस्ट बन जायेंगे।

Daily Positive Thoughts: July 23, 2013: The Secret Of Immeasurable Wealth

Daily Positive Thoughts: July 23, 2013: The Secret Of Immeasurable Wealth

Pongua Waterfall in Vietnam

The Secret of Immeasurable Wealth

The secret of immeasurable wealth is to need less. The wealthiest human beings ultimately give away vast amounts of the money that they have spent half their lifetime acquiring, This suggests that the motivation behind all their efforts was not the pursuit of wealth but something else. The need to prove something to oneself, for instance? Replace need - whether it is at an emotional or physical level - with an unshakeable faith in one's self and in God. Neither will ever let you down, if you hold fast to this faith

The power of truth is such that you need never be concerned about proving it.

Truth is always revealed at the right moment and at the right place. You don't need to be concerned about proving it. You need only to be concerned with being it and living it. Trying to prove truth reveals stubbornness. When you find that someone does not believe what you say, ask yourself if you believe in it. If you do, then you need not be concerned of proving it to others. Where there is doubt in yourself you'll want to prove it to everyone.

The Spiritual Seed and the Human World Tree

Spirituality introduces God or the Supreme Being as a seed, a point of reference, the spiritual Pole Star, remembered by all souls all over the world. But over a period of time, with an experience of linking my mind and intellect with Him, we realize that although He is a seed, a point, He is a not a non-living seed but a living one with a unique personality of his own, a personality which no one can match, a personality of spiritual truth, of beauty, of purity, of generosity, of love, of giving, of peace, of humility, of bliss, of power, of sweetness etc. How is this possible? We normally think of a seed as inactive or dormant, despite the enormous potential that lies within it, due to which it gives rise to a complete tree and bears fruits and other products. God is the seed of the human world tree. When I see virtues around me, whether it be in all human souls including deities, prophets, saints and the founders of the great religions or animals or nature, I know that ultimately this comes from God but God is not all pervasive, i.e. he is not present in all humans or nature or in the divine souls, but everything that is good in them comes from the virtues that are present in God or basically from the personality of God (mentioned above), because the tree is the creation of the seed, so all that is positive in the tree has come from the Source, the seed, perhaps sometime in the past. But, despite the goodness which is visible; today, peacelessness and pain do not seem to have reduced, and have probably increased, if we look behind the false covering of material success. The goodness is only in small patches. So what is the need of our times?

To spiritually uplift myself, I, being a part of the creation, a part of the tree, need to catch the positive energy within God, the creator, the seed. This energy is subtle, in that it is non-physical, but it is also glowing like light, and in meditation I can catch that glow, absorb it and feel its spiritual embrace healing me and making me complete or full. At the present moment, recognizing this need, the Supreme Being is shining the light of His personality through pure thought and vibrations more brightly than ever into the human world tree, inviting us: 'Oh sweet child, come and reclaim for yourselves your birthright, the inheritance of truth, by absorbing the qualities inherent in me through meditation or a spiritual link with me and making them your own.'

Soul Sustenance

Thought Energy

Our thoughts are always there, whatever age we are. Their content may change but our ability to think does not. First of all, I am a thinking, experiencing being or soul. Thoughts are not something physical which l can experience with the physical sense organs. I cannot see, taste or touch a thought. Thoughts are not made up of matter or even brain cells. I am a non-physical or spiritual being (soul), which creates thoughts. My form, a point of energy, situated in the centre of the forehead is the only form that cannot be destroyed. It is something so small that it cannot be divided. My identity is a soul, and all the other identities - teacher, student, man, woman, father, mother, friend, relation and so on - are simply different roles which I, the soul, play.

Message for the day

The more we experience peace within the more there will be positivity in our life.

Projection: We usually try to change ourselves and our negativities by working on each of them separately. We might be able to overcome them also but being connected to the other weaknesses we find that they reemerge again. Then we find that the negativity remains in our life influencing all our thoughts, words and actions.

Solution: We first need to make a promise to ourselves to maintain our own inner positivity. Once we do that we also need to make an attempt to practice relaxing our mind and remaining calm before we do any important thing. When we practice in this way we will be able to keep our mind calm and this calmness will bring contentment through which there will be positivity in all we do.
