There
is something arrestingly attractive about Shivani of Brahma Kumari.
Call it her aura, her voice or just her evolved self but every time
she is in front of the camera or the microphone, you cannot look at
anything else. It is not just about what she says but also about how
she communicates that makes her special. She addresses complex issues
in the simplest manner and resolves pressing problems.
On
Sunday, at Hotel Sea Princess Brahma Kumaris hosted a talk by Shivani
and the setting was perfect to connect with self and Almighty. After
brief greetings and meditation exercise by elder sister Yoginiben,
Shivani took the podium. She speaks softly and like always, begins
almost tentatively, then slowly, like a master musician taking
control of his notes; Shivani conquers your heart and mind!
She
travels many topics but eventually it all leads to our sanskaras
and karma,
she explains that while we worry incessantly about our bank credits
and debits we seldom pause to ponder over our karmas.
It is important to be vigilant about oneself, to watch our thought,
word and action every day, every minute and consciously work upon it
so that we don’t consciously or unconsciously never hurt others,
the only way to watch oneself is to guard your thought, word and
action.
Brahma
Kumaris have a simple mantra: kum
bolo – dheeme bolo –
dheere bolo – meetha bolo.
For
starters we can try doing that...
