A spiritual guide to become Emotionally strong, to awaken our emotional intelligence. Covers: What is emotion, how to use it for a positive purpose and how to use spiritual knowledge (murli) to re-awaken our inner powers and live the life as it is. A brother writes us to help him to become emotionally strong to forgive and forget other people easily and not getting affected by other's behavior. Original Message/Email on 31-01-2020 My problem is that my feelings and mood depend on other's actions and behaviours towards me... I am doing good in studies (college) but fail in controlling my emotions when people misbehave with me... --- "We at Prajapati Brahma kumaris daily do collective Yog/meditation for the world souls & send to them vibrations of peace, purity, love and power. Let good happen to all" Our Email Response + Guidance Topic: Emotional intelligence Dear Divine Brother You are doing great as a student right. But how to control our emotions and not react to other people's comments? This is your question. Here is our guidance for you. What is Emotion? E-motion is ''energy in motion''. Energy is the soul's energy when comes into action through the mind, it becomes 'e-motion'. This such energy if applied to the right place, in a right direction then actually it is a great benefitter. That means - if you use your emotions for a right purpose, they are helpful (a boost). Emotion is nothing but out ability (virtue) to connect to other person's heart. But this is not always beneficial. Sometimes, our emotion overcomes our sixth sense and past experiences, which lead us to make mistakes. Thus to say - we must always listen to our experience and our intellect (buddhi) and not fall into the flow of uncontrolled emotions - whether it is people's behavior towards us or our own judgements. Using Emotion as Positive For example, if you are emotional about that you cannot see others in pain and you cry with them. Ok, this is a weakness in itself. BUT if you are a doctor, then such emotions actually help you to connect emotionally with your patients. This then helps you in healing them better. Spiritual Understanding Anyway, since this is a general feeling, one desires to become emotionally strong. That is the way towards Spiritual awakening. When you realise that you are not this physical body or anything of matter, but a pure ''soul'' and everyone (every living being) is a 'soul' who is using their body to experience life. And that ''we all are brothers and sisters', children of one incorporeal GOD (Supreme Soul) then all such weakness will disappear. Answer: If you get upset for someone's comment on you, then you are just taking it too much seriously. Realise that this does not affect the truth. If 2 people say that left is right, then it wont become true. This is a simple realisation. Have no bad feeling for anyone as every soul is our family and God loves them as much as god loves me. "Spiritual Knowledge is the greatest purifier'' as said also in Bhagavad Geeta. What to Do? We can tell you ways to become emotionally strong. But in essence, we only tell you to do start 2 things: 1. Start watching our 'Awakening'' episodes on Emotional Intelligence -> http://www.bkdrluhar.com/00-htm/Shivani-7009-05.htm 2. Start listening Daily Gyan Murli (that we all BKs study). Firstly, please learn What is 'Murli' and then follow given website to access/get daily murli.

Question was asked by Madhuri Chauhan on 20 July 2018. Om Shanti. I have a long story to tell so please be patient because i really need your help..My father and mother were following gyan and baba for more than 15 years and we have geetapaathshala in our home. They have two daughters, me and my elder sister. My father wished me and my sister to become brahmakumaris. Though he never forced us to go to ashram or to do anything. He left the decision on us. My sister got married in 2010. In 2016, i told my father that i want to marry a boy and that boy does not belong to our caste. My father was very upset with my decision, still he supported me and advised me to do court marriage. Only I and my parents knew about my marriage and i came to canada after marriage. Our relatives had no idea about my marriage. But my father shared his pain with brahmakumari sister of the ashram which we used to visit. He was very upset at that time but very soon he realised that the boy i married is really a good boy and my father and mother were happy for me. We used to talk daily on phone. Then on 21st may 2018 my parents passed away in a car accident. People who were at that place where accident happened told that it was the truck driver’s fault who came from wrong side and hit my parents car. It took me 24hrs to reach india but by that time their antim yatra had already been done and i could not even see them for the last time. Two days later, the brahmakumari sister from the same ashram came to meet me and in front of all my relatives blamed me for sudden death of my parents. She started shouting at me that because of me my father was depressed. The way that sister was talking to me was like i am responsible for that car accident that took my parents lives. I know initially my parents were upset about my love marriage but now they were really happy with my husband and me. My father himself said to me that initially we felt bad but now we are glad with your decision. I just want to know should i believe my father’s words that he said to me or i should believe that brahmakumari sister. Am i really responsible for my parents death?  Our Answer: To: Madhuri Sweet divine Sister This is a response to your question and also a Godly sandesh (message). First of all, your father was not upset because of the person with whom you married, but because of that  you decided to marry instead of becoming a brahma kumari . Father was in Gyaan and knew that God has directed to us of complete purity . This is our last birth. World is changing. You can see. But Shiv baba has told never to force your children to not to marry. Hence you father made a correct decision. All is good. You were also happy after marriage.  Secondly, the one who can go against the Shrimat given in Murli and perform a wrong action (shout in anger), cannot be called a Brahma Kumari.  No one is called a bk only because they live in center away from their family. No. Instead a BK is one soul who follows the godly advice completely and do purusharth of self upliftment and do world service. One who has left all 5 vices forever (lust,anger,ego,greed,attachment). Only those are BK.  Third: You are not responsible for anyone other than yourself. Forget the past is past. Whatever happens, is for good only. You will soon get the answer - why was it for good. Trust the World Drama. This is a drama . We all are actors. This has happened 5000 years ago and it is just repeating. Nothing New.. So dear Madhuri, live with your family, with husband, but now you do 1 thing. You parents were a true BK and have followed the shrimat. They wished you to take you inheritance from Shiv baba. So will you not fulfil their dream?? You have to take a vow of purity in rest of your life. Living with husband with purity and see each other as a child of same parent (our supreme father, supreme soul) - this is a challenge. Can you take?? Here are guidelines for you: https://www.brahma-kumaris.com/how-to-join-bk About Us: https://www.brahma-kumaris.com/about-us What is Raja Yog: https://www.brahma-kumaris.com/rajyoga-meditation Do visit all above pages . This was a Godly sandesh (message) to you.  *Relief. You are not responsible for anything. You are just an actor. And most important, your parents souls take received the knowledge. Wherever they will go and take their next birth, it will be a very good place. This is for sure. Accha Namase 00

A conversation with Shiv baba' -response to an email sent to us by Shreya Jain on 21 Aug 2018. Original Email: Om Shaanti. Mene baba se pucha ki Baba aap ka Naam to 'Shiv' hai par mein ek Aatma hun to mera kya Naam hai? .Baba ne kaha ki mera to bas ek hi Naam hai naa 'Shiv' par tumhare to 7 Naam hain...Khushi, Pyari, Mithi, Aanandi , Gyani, Shaanti, Shakti. Thank you baba. Namaste to all the divine souls. Baba ka karya karne me sabko safalta mile. Our Response: To: Shreya Jain Your letter is received. This experience ois result of a direct connection with Shiv baba. It is happy moment for you. You had a conversation with one to whom the entire world is calling.. Baba gave you introduction of the 7 virtues of Soul - our original qualities (our name as a Soul form). The most deep concept of the knowledge is the first concept -of Soul - what is Soul ? One understands more and more as one goes within and thinks. How is a subtle point of light can have a record of 84 births with all 84 body and relationships with other souls... all this is recorded. There is a secret is this. That soul the point has a field - a field is invisible but acts as an identifier for that soul - For a simple example, if you reach to a person who is a divine soul, a RajYogi - you will will the vibrations of peace or power.. This is the field of Soul which cannot be seen but be experienced. So in all, it is certainly possible to have such an experience of talking with someone who remember the most. Here this is with the supreme soul (God). Baba gives response not in words, but we understand it in words, in language that we know. This is beautiful. In higher consciousness, conversation happens through signals, scenes (visions) and vibrations. Then when we relate it to the corporeal word, with our powerful mind, we can convert that conversation in the language that our brain knows. With this, have a very peaceful, lovely day.

Shrimat is to live a pure family life and becoming a Godly student. Here is one of a fine question asked by Rekha on 22 Aug 2018 on 'How to forgive others and use of power to tolerate and power to accommodate while we live with family?' Original Question: Om Shanti my problem is I forgive people but still thoughts come due to their dumb behaviour .I have stopped giving importance to their any sought of attitude towards me so what can I do as well I m not able to focus now on my career .It's been past 15 months I'm sitting at home but I don't feel like going out or working any where please do help me om Shanti. Our Response (Answer): To: Rekha Dear Divine Sister We have received your letter. Here is the response. You stage of forgiveness for others is very good. But forgiiveness should come with 'understanding' (knowledge). What should we understand? Answer: We are brahman souls, who are in direct sustenance given by God himself. We have knowledge that the present time is the end of cycle. Every soul is now in their lowest stage (tamo). Hence they will make many mistakes . We were also the same before we came in Gyaan. Hence it is now our prime responsibility, to give them support, love and power so that they can overcome their weakness. Yes. Sometimes someone may behave in an improper manner which may be be acceptable easily. But you should understand the reason of why they are such. They are many reasons, knowing which you will instead have mercy on them. Today, human beings do hard work to earn for their family and self, as they also have growing material desires to fulfill. They believe they get happiness in this. When one fulfills a wish of physical senses, they start becoming a slave of the senses. ''There is NO end of desires'' So you and me, the brahman souls have a greater aim of life - that is - to become pure (conquer the vices) and to show other souls the path. You can do the service. Anyone can, there are many means. Share to your family, friends, on internet via Blogs and forums. And there is service of mind (mansa sewa) PERSONAL You asked to advice upon - 'I cant focus on work and dont feel like going outside' Advice: Everything has happened for a good reason. By the way, you will be thinking that what is good to stay at home, not working. But it is to know that in this time, outside is such atmosphere that to remain untouched from negativity is getting difficult. Hence first you have to make yourself capable powerful enough to face that atmosphere by remaining untouched. Understood? That is reason why you are staying at home while you becoming powerful from inside.

Made a mistake? God has said: 'Lust is your greatest enemy'. Here is healing for you the soul. How to recover from past Karma, sin or mistakes? The way to Self realisation and Self transformation. Original Email Received in January 2019 I did a sin. I am in love with my best Friend who has a girlfriend. I just can't see him sad. I feel jealous of their togatherness. Day before yesterday we shared an intimate moment. We hugged and he kissed and rubbed his cheek on my cheek. How could I allow him for this! He kissed on my forehead too. I am feeling like a culprit. I disowned myself. I cheated on my parents and his girlfriend. I broke my vow of not being intimate with someone other than my future husband. Please advice me how can i forget all these things and my bestfriend too? I want to move on but don't know how. I want to be pure again. Please please advice me. I have done the 7 days rajayoga course and started practicing meditation also, but still am thinking about it. Please advice me a way so that i will not repeat these type of mistakes. Wish I could be pure again. Please help. Thank u Our Email Response To: Monali (and Everyone Reading this) Good morning Your email letter is received and read. Here is our response. You subjected the letter as 'sin'. But you must first know if it is really so. It is difficult to accurately understand the accounts of karma - what is right action (punya), what is wrong action (sin) or what is in-action (that which does not give any fruit). God sits and explains. In essence, those karma (action) which gives you and others 'peace of mind', which gives inner-satisfaction, is the right Karma. You have judged and concluded that it is a sin. But it is not. It is instead a ''mistake''. Mistake may lead to a sin - so be aware. Mistake s when you first encounter a new experience. Then you judge if that is right or not. This is essential so that you understand completely the way you want to live. Every soul is here is experience what it is. Soul has virtues of Peace, Purity, love, bliss and powers. But these all are in merged form. When we make use of these, they come emerged. Life is making choices at every step. However choice you will make, you will become. Great thing is that the creator (GOD) is so great that he placed 2 choices after every choice - that is - even if a Soul makes a mistake, still you will have a chance to re-create. You will have this choice till the end. God is soo great. Shiv baba has come. To understand the essence of this divine knowledge, you first have to take the 7 days course. You can take this course at any NEARBY cente OR online. Whatever happens is always for benefit. See here also, as you made a small mistake, you came towards God, towards us and now you are more stable in purity. Baba has given the first shrimat - Purity. This is our last birth. It is last birth for all the souls. The play will last until the end. World drama is of 5000 years. ''I want to forget him completely and dedicate my life towards spirituality...'' Answer: In such a situation, advice is given that you should direct your mind towards something productive. Learn something important to keep mind busy in spiritual knowledge. I am sharing you how I started the journey - step by step. Hope you will find inspiration. There are many good ways to start. Here are a few: 1. Start by knowing the history of Yagya - here is a playlist on SoundCloud where the history is told in Hindi (audio): https://soundcloud.com/brahmakumaris-bk/sets/history-of-brahma-kumaris 2. Then watch these videos - https://www.brahma-kumaris.com/videos - Videos not only is easy to understand but also is useful to bring clarity in Gyan (knowledge) 3. Now you have received an introduction of God - our spiritual father. Hence now we can understand the Murli. It is time to study. So I started listening to Murlis everyday and also taking important points in a notebook. Murli website: babamurli.com Mobile apps (MUST install and see) - http://bit.ly/BkAndroidApps 4. Making a chart every day before sleep - On Shiv baba's direction's i started making a 1 page small chart for my daily activities. - Did i make any mistake today? - confession. - What did baba say in today's murli? - What service did i do today? - What new i learned? 5. When you complete all 4 stages of Purusharth, you will become a mature child of Shiv baba. You don't need guidance from me. When you start, email us. As you go ahead in this journey, you shall find divine inspirations from Shiv baba and Drama. You will become what you ''will to''. Always remember - 'This is the only time when we can 'create' our fortune for many many coming births...'

Official Guidelines on: How to join the Godfatherly Spiritual University (Prajapita Brahma Kumari Ishwariya Vishwa Vidhyalay). *Updated on: 21/05/2021 The following are our "3 steps to join" as per the directions given by Shiv Baba in Sakar and Avyakt Murlis. To view the most updated information, please visit our official page: How to Join Us. Step 1: Take RajYoga course The 7 day Raja Yog course is a foundation and the essence of entire spiritual knowledge taught and practised at Brahma Kumaris Spiritual University. And this will be considered as the first step in becoming a BK student. You can take this course at any nearby BK centre (Rajyoga center) or even while staying at Home (via our Online Course section) In the introductory 7 days course, the basic points of God-given Spiritual knowledge will be explained - Day 1: Soul (me) Day 2: the Supreme soul (God, our father) Day 3: Three worlds that exist Day 4: World drama cycle Day 5: Story of 84 births of human souls Day 6: Law of Karma Day 7: Raja Yog meditation & its practice Step 2: Study Murli and vow of Purity When you have cleared the first stage (course), then you will also understand what is murli. It is said that the milk of a lioness only stays in a golden bowl (meaning: Divine knowledge only stays in a pure intellect). So now, one must follow the first advice of God, which is to 'become pure'. In common words - complete celibacy or brahmacharya. Purity is the mother of all virtues. And without such purity (in thoughts, words, actions), one cannot be called a Brahman (a BK). For many, purity in thoughts is difficult. But with time following other directions in the murli, the stage of our inner purity also improves and gradually it becomes a natural way of living. The easy way of bringing purity deeply into our lives, is to remember that "We all souls are brothers (or brothers and sisters), the children of one spiritual father (Supreme soul /ParamAtma)" Now you are ready to taste the eternal nectar. What is Murli? We daily listen to Shiv baba's Gyan Murli. These are the loving words of knowledge and directions by God through his corporeal medium Brahma (those murlis are known as Sakar Murli). God's murli covers the entire knowledge of creation and the creator, and our own story of 84 births. This is food for the soul. The soul imbibes the food of knowledge and becomes powerful. When we churns this knowledge, it becomes our wisdom. Know more on: What is Murli? Step 3: Surrender your Intellect Many ask us: How can I join and be one among you? How can I surrender in the Yagya? So it is important to know that 'surrender' doesn't mean to live at a centre. In fact it is Baba's Shrimat that you should remain pure and do spiritual effort (purusharth) while living at your homes (with your loukik family) ''I will listen only you, I will walk, eat, sit and sleep only with you (in your remembrance) - this is the promise you children have made to me'' - Shiv baba (Murli, 1967) To surrender your mind to God means, to follow his given advice (shrimat). What is Shrimat? Shrimat is directions of God to us children, as given in the Murli which we daily study (listen/read). Murli will be divided into 4 subjects (knowledge, yog, dharna and service) out of which, the third subject (dharna) is considered as the advice of God i.e.: how one shall inculcate the spiritual values and virtues in practical life and remove the 5 vices (lust, anger, greed, ego, attachment) and other subtle weaknesses. Realise that it is God himself who is speaking the Murli and teaching us children to make us equal to himself. When you realise this, it is a matter of time to surrender your mind to God and listen/follow his elevated directions/advice. The one who follows the advice (shrimat) given in Murli, is the one whom we call - a surrendered Soul, a BK. This is called as a surrender of the mind. ✤Step 1: Clarification How to take the Course? There are 2 ways to take the free 7 days RajYoga course: 1. Via your nearby BK RajYog centre Visit your nearby local centre and ask the sisters to give you the introduction of this.

I am 21 years old and in the last year of my college....... My mother has always complained that my father does not care for her and has total disdain for her; he prefers to be more outside the house than inside the house. But to me, my father has always been quite loving and caring. My mother was waiting for the past 20 years, that once my son is able to stand on his own feet, then I will take a decision. As I will sit for placements this year, and most probably land a job, my mother is losing her patience that she kept for so many years. During the lockdown, I have been home for the past few months and have witnessed fights happening between my parents at an interval of every 4-5 days. These days, even my father does not seem to think about what words he is saying to my mother, in front of me. In midst of all this, I have to prepare for my exams and placements too. Now, how do I deal with this situation and how do I support my parents emotionally and spiritually? Pranaam.....

How to overcome negativity of influence of bad company at work place, or outside? Question: How can we stop the negative influence of people who are close to us and enable them to change their thinking pattern? Answer: This is a curious question. I don’t know if you have ever made the attempt to change anyone.  I don’t believe I have met anyone who has been successful in that effort.  In fact, it is possible to expend a great deal of time and energy in such pursuits, without getting any success. If you feel someone is having a negative influence on you, if you feel someone close is having a continuous negative influence on you, you do have a few options. One possibility is to ascertain what you think you are gaining by remaining close to that person.  Is it possible that on some level you are attached to their negative influence?  Is it possible that their negativity offers you an excuse to criticise them and complain?  Some people even have a need for someone to criticise and complain about.  Perhaps there is a habit of finding it good to blame someone close.  There could even be a compulsion to exert an even more negative influence on the designated close person than they have on us, and we want to somehow outdo them. Sometimes it is even possible to believe, to know that we are right, and that we have the duty to correct another person and help them to conduct their life in a better way.  Some even feel that others should not be so independent that they can conduct themselves however they want.  We can even find ourselves so caught up with how badly-behaved others are that we become willing to sacrifice ourselves in order to improve them.  We may feel this is a very charitable and responsible act. In the process, we can fail to live our own lives.  We may fail to understand that each person has their own destiny which they are playing out whether we like it or not.  We may fail to realise that like attracts like, and that if they are so negative, then it may be a sure sign that we might be equally negative. We may think we are so powerful that we can take over another person’s mind and alter their thinking patterns, change their karmic history and submit them to our superior will.  We may continue with this activity for months, or even years. We may get frustrated that our efforts are not bearing the fruits that we desire.  We may decide that they need to be forced to behave other than how they are, through exerting pressure on them, manipulating them, threatening them or devising ways to scare them into complying with our higher wishes for their benefit. These are a few common practices that some people like to do for those who are close to them, but who are exerting a negative influence. Alternatively, we could opt to mind our own business and get on with our own lives.  We might even check whether we can get close to any individuals who are not negative and would not be offended by any negativity we may be harbouring within ourselves. It is said that you can judge people by the company they keep. What is the most valuable and useful way to use our mind, our intelligence and our time?  Thought, breath and time are considered the most valuable assets.  So, when we take time to think about a question, we might want to calculate whether it is worthwhile taking up that question.  How will it benefit me to spend time on this or that question?  What can I learn that profits me?  Should I really take up questions that are of no concern to me? It is said there are three kinds of sins.  One which is well known.  We should not do what we are not supposed to do, we should not give sorrow.  Second, we should not fail to do what we are supposed to do.  Third, which is not so well known, we should not take sorrow.  If we are negatively influenced by a close person, it means we are repeatedly taking sorrow from that person by our own volition.  We do not wish them to give us sorrow, but we believe we are obligated to take the sorrow they are dishing out to us. According to the third variety of sin, it seems that we should be exercising our right to not take the sorrow.  If that seems too hard, then probably we are not strong enough to handle the situation.  A good solution would be to increase our personal strength and resilience.  Then their negativity will not have a negative influence on us.  Thus, our problem is solved.

Anger is just like a fire which burns first itself then to others. So why we get angry?  When situations are not according us then we get angry. So who are responsible for this? Stop,  be quait and think the reality, whatever is happening around me, only I, I'm responsible for that. If you believe it you will easily cross all the situation. Namaste.

Giing up addiction is a matter of simple understanding, which is acheived by Self realisation (who am i). Nowadays, many are suffering from this addiction, either of smoking, drinking, etc. Addiction is just a temporary feeling of detachment from sorrow, which later causes more sorrow both physical and mental.

How to overcome feeling of being inferior and comparing the self with others? A spiritual guide and princles in life that matter the most. How to think? What is the right path to walk in life? Original email we received from Vaishali Sharma on 28 Sep 2018 Om Shanti! My name is Vaishali Sharma and I am a first year MBBS Student. The problem that I am facing currently is related to comparing my life with a girl who lives in my colony. She's a BA Graduate and gives home tution as a part time course and has an average income. She doesn't have a very strong financial background and her family doesn't give her financial support. But despite all this she's able to afford to travel here and there almost every day and that too in a car ;eat at expensive restaurants ; drinks expensive beer; wears branded clothes and makeup. And a huge credit goes to her boyfriend for the kind of lavish lifestyle she lives. Her mother and brother despite knowing all this don't scold her, rather they promote her for doing this. I on the other hand have never betrayed my parent's trust and I have always been a sincere girl. But for the past 1.5 to 2 years I have been comparing my life with hers. And during this time I was actually viewing her Instagram account almost regularly which further destroyed my self esteem because I was able to see that she was having fun in her life. I struggled a lot just to earn my MBBS seat and the journey was never like a cakewalk but I couldn't help comparing my life with hers because she was always chilling around with her friends and boyfriend. Whereas I faced tremendous pressure, criticism, failures, disappointments and a wave of conflicting emotions. I still feel sometimes that God has been unfair to me and has been kind to her for he didn't gave her a struggling life. My teachers and parents used to say that after passing 10th one should work hard and focus on career and studies or else you will have to live a struggling life for the next 50-60 years. She didn't work hard but still she's enjoying and happy. I know that I have so much to be grateful to God but I'm just not able to appreciate the things and people he has blessed me with. How to deal with this? Please help. THANK U VAISHALI SHARMA Our Response Vaishali Your message is received and read. Read with attention. Very strange to see how India, a country of culture and religion, the most ancient and important land has changed in few years. Before, good life was considered to be the one in which we get peace of mind, in which we stay away from all bad, in which we fulfill our responsibilities and then we struggle, work hard, but at last get the real success. This is called ''life''. Going here and there, drinking, etc. is a task of a human beings who has lost the way of life. There is no real happiness in this. Person may only look happy. Real happiness lies in doing what is not against the Dharma. Always remember Vaishali, in your life, at every single point, you will have 2 choice. One of those 2 is right and better. Mostly the right choice looks difficult. A wise person should not be attracted in temporary pleasures. And see, it is not your bad fortune, that you are safe and away from such a life, but it is a better fortune. This you should know that one who walks on right path, does not indulge in bad karma, shall definitely get everything that life has to offer. Hard work is best for this. Hard work is dharma. Celibacy is your dharma. Helping to the needy, serving parents and thanking God is our Dharma. Cleanliness, not harming anyone (non voilence) is our Dharma If you walk on this path, there shall be temporary pain, sacrifices. After this, is bright light, which is great reward.
