To bring benefit to many is to give true meaning to life.

Message for the day 07-12-2015

Expression: Living for oneself is common. Then, from time to time, there will be hurt, anger and even sorrow. but life is truly worth living and great when I am conscious of what I am giving others. Because I have to give, I will take from life and others with what can fill me (positive), and not what empties me (negative). 

Experience: Today I will check if my every interaction with everyone through out the day is mutually beneficial. Let no one go away from me empty handed (some positive experience). I will give a smile at least, if nothing else. 

Soul Sustenance 07-12-2015 Soul Maintenance  In order to take care of the physical body, we give importance to diet, exercise and to proper rest or sleep. In order to take care of the non-physical self or soul, we need to make sure that we feed our intellect with positive thoughts. Attention needs to be kept on the diet of the intellect. If we keep feeding it with positive thoughts, then automatically it will make us free from any heaviness and we will feel the lightness of our own mind. The regular practice of meditation for 5-10 minutes every morning is the exercise for the soul. Meditation will help us master our sense organs, think more peacefully and powerfully, maintain our focus of inner attention and therefore remain undisturbed by external events (at the workplace or at home). The third important thing is to give enough rest to the soul. We sleep to energize the body. We need to give rest to the soul in the form of silence in the mind. Refuse to do anything in this one minute. Just one minute of silence and calmness every hour gives rest to our mind and will empower (strengthen) us for the rest of the hour. So we are able to do our work more efficiently and effectively. In Spiritual Service, Brahma Kumaris
