Positive Thinking Quotes

To be a well wisher means to think of changing first. Being a well wisher just doesn't mean wishing others well. It also means having good wishes for the self and having the pure desire to bring about a change for the better in the self. So whatever the kind of situations, instead of just judging others and what they need to change, the one who is a well-wisher constantly brings about transformation in the self. For having worked on ourselves under all circumstances and having used every situation as a chance for self-progress, we constantly enjoy every thing that comes our way. We have no expectations, but just think of benefit for others and ourselves. We then never find any situation to be an obstacle, but use it as a step for progress.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Greatness is visible in simplicity. The simplicity within us brings benefit to many. Simplicity doesn't mean we have to give up all we have, but it only means that we give up the attraction and attachment to whatever we are using. With simplicity our lifestyle takes on an easiness that in itself can be a healing source to those around. We need to make the practice of being detached even while using everything. We need not give up anything, but while using everything, we need to remember that what we have is for the use of everyone and not to get dependent on it. When we are detached in this way we will be able to bring benefit to all around us.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Patience is a reflection of the peaceful mind. My peaceful mind is able to cope with all situations without becoming disturbed and agitated. It calmly accepts the resolution of circumstances and, with this patience acquires the power to deal with all situations.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

To accept advice is to ensure self-progress. The natural state of the self is to ensure progress. Everything that is done by the self is for its progress. But the one who rejects advice rejects the progress of the self. To accept advice means to take the chance for whatever benefit that comes one’s way. When someone corrects us or gives us an advice or suggestions, if we accept it in the right spirit, we'll constantly learn from it. This will enable us to experience constant progress. We are also naturally able to give regard to everyone we come into contact with and remain in constant happiness.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.

Humility enables one to serve others. The one who is humble is the one who is complete and full. So just like a tree which is laden with fruit, bowing down and offering all it has humbly, the one who is full is ready for service. He is available for others to take benefit from whatever resources are there with him. This humility earns respect from others and gives happiness to all. When we are able to bow down with the awareness of what we have, we are fully in the stage of our self-respect. The more we are able to bow, the more others also bow down with regard to us and respect our fortune. This enables us to be a giver to those around and experience contentment - constantly.

~ Brahma Kumaris, Mt Abu.
