The wisdom and words of Dadi Janki.
Some people don't want to have anything more to do with love because there has been deception from all sides. They have kicked love away. They think it is too complicated, too tiring.They say, "I'm not going to love anyone anymore and I don't want anyone to love me, either." They don't even want to talk about it. They don't want to hear about motherly love, friendly love, any kind of love at all.
These are the ones who end up saying, "I just want to be independent." They think that love should mean freedom from all these things. Actually, this is a kind of arrogance. Such people do not understand that this earth is a field of action and that this field and our being on it needs the water of love.

Detachment
The wisdom and Words of Dadi Janki.
You need power to remain free from the influence of others. Detachment is this power. If you can't stay detached from influences, you will not be able to keep your thoughts under control. From there, it will be a downward spiral until all trace of inner well-being is lost.
The first step in detachment is to understand who you are as a spiritual entity. This allows you to 'detach' yourself from your physical identity and its world of limited thoughts and feelings and 'attach' instead to your spiritual personality, the being of inner peace and power.
A normal day will be filled with challenges to this detachment. On the one side will be your spiritual awareness but on the other will be the attraction towards human beings and the material world. Detachment is not a question of becoming separate from the latter but of simply remaining conscious of yourself as a spiritual being whilst being in the world and playing your part. Detachment simply means to keep yourself centred in your spirituality.

UNDERSTANDING
The Wisdom and Words of Dadi Janki taken from her book 'Companion of God'
Most people don't understand themselves. There isn't the patience to understand themselves or others. We need to make time for this.We get too impatient. Very often, because we are not willing to take time to listen, misunderstandings continue. We don't take the time to listen to someone quietly and try to understand them. Then we start inventing things about them, because we simply haven't taken the time to understand.

SPIRITUALITY
The Wisdom and Words of Dadi Janki taken from her book 'Companion of God'
Spirituality is the art of balancing your responsibilities to yourself, your family and to the whole world. The basis for this is a deep understanding of self, God and the law of cause and effect (karma).
Knowing the self enables you to be detached from physical factors and their limitations. Knowing God enables you to create a deep link of love and draw into yourself all attributes, virtues and powers, from the Source. Understanding the deep philosophy of 'karma' motivates you to settle debts of the past and perform elevated actions now.
Anyone can fall victim to the suffering of a poor state of mind, ill-health, loss of wealth or unhappy relationships. Human life depends on these four factors and yet each of them has become so fragile and unreliable. God's power restores tolerance and the ability to face anything. An understanding of the deep philosophy of karma reveals how elevated thoughts, pure feelings and good actions can resolve all difficulties for the self and for the world.

Relationship
When a relationship is not working, it is usually because there are needs and expectations that are not being met. There might be so much anger or hatred that your only desire might be just to run away from it all. However, this is not a solution! It merely reflects your lack of understanding about where the real problem lies.
The root of all needs and expectations is an unfulfilled spiritual desire. Satisfy your spiritual desires through the practice of meditation and you'll be able to interact successfully with anyone.No longer needy, you will enter into relationships simply to share and enjoy. There'll be no strings attached in the way you give of yourself; your love will be unconditional.
We must learn to bring spirituality into our relationships.Others will learn by our example. It's a way of inspiring and uplifting each other.

Emotional Pain
Dear friends, here I would like to share the words of Dadi Janki about Emotional Pain taken from her book ' Companion of God'
In a situation of emotional distress, you usually have two options: to face the problem or not. Processing a problem means you are facing it. Suppressing the problem means you are not. There's a big difference between the two.
Processing is to the mind what digesting is to the stomach. If your digestive system can't handle certain food, you have to stop eating them, otherwise you become sick. Similarly, if you find yourself in a situation where you can't cope, don't just sit there taking it all in. It's better to say something right there and then. To hold things inside will not allow you to have a healthy mind. What you take in will be indigestible and it will be obvious to others that you are having a problem.
Our ability to cope is hampered by thinking too much about other people. This cause problems in the mental digestive system. The best mental 'antacid, is in-depth spirituality study. This, plus a regular practice of self-awareness, penetrates the mind very deeply, dislodging emotional pain at its roots. Only then can emotion be purified, refined and ultimately transformed.
I truly hope these words will benefit all. My heart felt thanks to Dadi Janki for these beautiful and meaningful words.

Pure Feelings
I would love to share The Wisdom and Words of Dadi Janki taken from her book 'Companion of God' I thank you.
People have experienced a lot of deception in their lives.There has been a lot of exchange of everything that is false, so feelings have been destroyed.It is why some people have stopped feeling altogether and have rejected the world. However, when a soul starts receiving something from God, the heart opens up. So let us take God's love and have pure feelings. Let us experience what pure feelings are. Let us have trust in each other and faith in ourselves.
Let us learn to love ourselves. Let us have purity in our feelings, then we can experience love. Let us take from God and give to others.When we have very powerful good wishes for others, good feelings for others, those feelings reach them. We can help each other through the power of our good feelings.
Deep in my heart there is just this one feeling: just as I have received so much from God, may all God's children receive the same from their Father.~ The Wisdom and Words of Dadi Janki @ Brahma Kumaris ~

Many a time.....
one may have felt
some kind of bondage in one's life
through situations and people
many a time.....
one may have felt
uncomfortable and disappointed
and tried to break free from it
but.....
it is not.....
that easy to do so
maybe.....
one has never tried
looking deep within oneself
to see if.....
there is any bondage
in one's own mind
until.....
one fine day
one will realize that FREEDOM is.....
but.....
starts in the MIND
and not by cutting ropes.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY DEAREST FRIEND
Moments of bliss is yours forever, I pray
As the world of darkness leaves you, I pray
Hence, happiness is always yours, I pray
Even though, birth is an 'enigma'
Now, it is time again to celebrate
Dancing lights, filled with sweet dreams
Reminding you again how special you are
As tomorrow is your very special day
Now, allow me to wish you 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY'.
