The more we keep telling ourselves that I am always happy, our happiness increases. The mind just needs to be taught what to say. So the first thought every morning should be - I am a powerful soul.
Second thought should be - I am always happy. Until now what had we taught our mind? We had taught - I want happiness.
And we have taught our mind that happiness is in things. So we kept buying objects of comfort. So that we will get happiness when we buy something.
Physical objects can give us physical comfort. For instance, I am sitting on this large sofa. Those people are sitting on a smaller sofa.
These people are sitting on chairs. And some of you are sitting on the ground. Does it mean that those sitting on the floor are more happy or less happy?
No. Physical comfort is more on a chair. The body can be more comfortable when sitting on a chair.
But it doesn't mean the mind will be more happy when sitting on the chair. But what we believed is - When I buy this . .
. When I get that . .
. Then I will be happy. That is why when someone had more comforts than us, we were jealous.
That they have what we don't have. Because of jealousy our happiness kept depleting. Physical objects can give us physical comfort.
Physical objects cannot give us happiness. They can only give us comfort. Happiness is a creation of our mind.
So we should tell ourselves everyday - I am always happy. Not just happy but always happy. Can you say this daily to yourself?
Yes. What was the first line? I am a powerful soul.
What happens when we call ourselves powerful? We remind ourselves That the remote control of our mind is in our hand. We reminded ourselves That situations and people's behaviour cannot disturb my state.
Remote control is in my hand. I am a powerful soul. I am always happy.
The third thought is - No matter what the situation is, I am always peaceful. 3 thoughts. The fourth thought God is always with me.
How many of you see this everyday? Don't say it only once in a while. We should say it every day and many times a day.
Whatever we think and whatever we speak It will start becoming a reality and we start becoming that way. When we remember that God is with us Then there is nothing to worry or fear. Think about this - when we step out into the street Suppose a small child is trying to cross the street.
That child feels very scared to cross. He goes back and forth many times. He gets scared.
Then suppose he holds his parents' hands. His mummy's hand and papa's hand And then they cross the street holding his hand. That time that kid will play fully cross the street, isn't it?
In that state he crosses the street. He will enjoy it so much that he will ask his parents to do it again. Because he is no longer crossing the street alone.
Now he is holding his parents hands and then crossing it. Likewise we need to hold our Supreme Parent's (God's) hand and then cross situations in life. We should not cross scenes of life alone.
Only when we try to cross it alone we feel worried and scared. We will keep worrying about unpleasant situations that might come up suddenly. When we are alone, situations will scare us.
But if we remind ourselves everyday That God is with me and I am holding His hand His hands of benediction are always on me. I am always protected by God's powers. When we keep thinking and speaking this way Start becoming that way.
The fifth thought is - My body is always healthy. Usually we don't say this. Even if there is a small ache or pain, we complain about it 4 times.
You can experiment and see. When you repeat it as - I am unwell . .
. I am unwell . .
. I am in pain . .
. I am in pain . .
. I am tired . .
. I am tired . .
. Then our illness and pain will definitely aggravate. As we think so will be our reality.
So never say - I am ill. Always say - I am healthy. Even if your body is slightly unwell And someone asks you how you are doing Tell them - I am absolutely perfect and healthy.
Never say - I am ill. We need to get treatment. But let's not think or say - I am unwell.
Everyday we need to bless ourselves. My body is healthy. This is the fifth thought.
All my relationships are loving. I get along perfectly with everyone. Sixth thought is - My house is heaven on Earth.
Bless your house everyday. My house is heaven. So even if there is any disturbance at home, it will be finished.
Because we are blessing it beautifully everyday. My house is heaven on Earth. Let's revise all the thoughts again.
I am a powerful soul. I am always happy. Regardless of the situation, I am always peaceful.
My body is healthy. My relationships are loving. My house is heaven on earth.
All of you remember? I am a powerful soul. I am always happy.
I am peaceful in every situation. God is always with me. His blessings are are a circle of protection around me.
My body is healthy. My relationships are beautiful. My house is heaven on earth.
For one month we shall state these are formations. What we should do for a month is As soon as you wake up As soon as you open your eyes, just sit down there itself. And state these six thoughts clearly.
Can you do it? Yes. Repeat this 6 thoughts first thing in the morning.
And then repeat it after every two or three hours during the day, whenever you remember. Even while you are working on something, repeat these thoughts in your mind. Even while you are cooking While cooking, repeat these thoughts so you will add their energy into the food.
I am peaceful, happy, powerful, God is with me . . .
Just like we add ingredients into the preparation Likewise ad these thoughts also into it - I am peaceful, happy, powerful . . .
God is with me. My body is healthy My house is heaven on earth. If you add these thoughts while cooking Within a month, things will change at home.
State of mind of people in your house will change. This is a very powerful method. God teaches us How to think and how to speak.
How to begin the day And finally, before we sleep at night We shouldn't simply go to bed Because whatever we think at night Those thoughts will work on us throughout the night. Last thoughts for the night As we sleep for 6 hours Those thoughts will be on our mind. Last thoughts for the day are very important.
So we shall sit down for two minutes before going to bed at night We will repeat the six thoughts again. And then we will offer gratitude to everyone. When we sleep after having created such beautiful thoughts Even if we sleep for few hours, we will wake up fresh and energized in the morning.
Whatever will be our last thought before sleep That will become our first thought in the morning. Because we had created that thought, the previous night. So we should first do it in the morning, soon after waking up.
No down when to repeat these affirmations. First thing in the morning for 2 minutes. First give gratitude and then repeat these 6 affirmations.
Then during the day as we go about our tasks at home or at office Even while you are walking . . .
Let's revise these are formations in between. Add this thoughts into food while cooking. It's important to revise these affirmations after every 2 hours.
We don't need happiness, peace, and power. When we think and speak the language of affirmations These emotions will become our natural Sanskars. Next we need to repeat them at night before sleeping.
All of us have TV and phone at home. They give us comforts. They make our life comfortable.
But the way we use them Make this a rule at your house That the TV will not be on at Meal time. How many of you watch TV while eating? All of you?
As is the food, so will be the mind. If we want a powerful mind If you want a happy mind If we want a peaceful mind Then we should think of God before eating. Not TV.
Make it a rule at home to protect the entire house. That TV will be off while you eat. How many of you can follow this?
This is easy. Why should we follow it? Whatever is happening on TV, its vibrations will affect the food we eat.
And thereafter it becomes our state of mind when we eat that food. And then the scenes that were happening on TV They will start happening at home after a few days. That is why we need to sit peacefully to have a meal.
We need to first think of God Then we need to thank God for the food on a plate And then add the 6 affirmations into our food. The offer prayers and then start eating. Now that food becomes Prasad.
So we should not have either TV or phone nearby when we are eating. It's easy. It takes only 10 minutes to eat.
Food has a direct effect on our mind. Water has a direct effect on our mind and body. So we have to be careful of what we listen read, and watch on TV and phone.
They are influencing our state of mind deeply. If we watch content that contains anger, worry or fear Our mind will also start creating anger, worry and fear. So no phone or TV while having food.
30 minutes before bedtime, phone and TV should be turned off. The sleep at night increases solar power. But if we are watching content just before going to bed We might sleep but these things will keep going on internally on our mind.
As a result solar power will reduce. So let's turn off television at least 30 minutes before bedtime. In the past when we did not have TV at home We had very less stress, anger and restlessness at home.
We were happier. Because we were not absorbing such content. The way we begin our morning is very important.
If we want to remain happy and radiate happiness always Set aside one hour for the self every morning Like the sister shared with you, there is a Brahmakumari centre in your city. It is called Brahma Kumaris Ishwariya Vishwa Vidyalaya. Which means we are moving towards God.
We have centres in 140 countries across the world. People come from all over the world to study here. They come here only for one hour everyday.
During that one hour we study the knowledge which God has given us. Right now we are in Kalyug. Just like it is dark right now, likewise it is a dark period on this planet right now.
It is the time of Kalyug right now. It is in fact Ghor Kalyug. The incorporeal God whom we fervently invoked to come and change our lives To come and change this world Now is the time when God has himself come into this world.
Having come here, God is teaching us The right way of living The right way of thinking The right way of behaving The way of transforming Sanskars. When we change our Sanskars, which change this world from Kalyug to Satyug. Return our life from hellish to a paradise We change our house into heaven.
So God Himself has come to teach us. We just need to take out one hour to study whatever God is teaching us. And we need to create such a beautiful relationship with God That we will never be alone in any situation of life Because we are holding God's hand and made God our companion.
Even we do that, no matter what situation comes Literally whatever situation unfolds in our life We will always remain happy, peaceful, and powerful. God has come to make our life perfect. We just need to take out one hour daily, and fill our mind with the knowledge God has given.
When we fill the mind with what God has told us, rather than what is happening in the world Then our thoughts will transform. The soul will become so powerful that no matter what challenge comes Literally no matter what challenge comes You will always remain happy, peaceful, and stable. Come to the centre and the sisters will teach you About the knowledge given by God and how to establish a relationship with God.
Also how to absorb God's powers and use it in life. Also how to radiate God's powers to your family. And how to convert your house into heaven on earth.
The sisters are available every day to teach all this. So take out 1 hour a day for five days to learn. Let's no longer live a life where our remote control is in other people's hands.
We need to take back the remote control. No matter what situation comes in front of a powerful soul No matter how someone behaves with a powerful soul A powerful soul will always remain stable, peaceful and happy. And will radiate happiness to others also.
How many of you are ready to take out 5 days to go to the centre and learn? Very good.
