Cutting Chai with Bhawana Somaaya - Day 175



Awakening with Bhrama Kumaris


22.8.13, Mumbai



I’m on the email connection where I’m privileged to get blessed messages from the senior most Bhrama Kumari lovingly addressed as Janki Dadi by all. Every time I read her message, something that has been troubling me for a while, resolves for me.
Today I share her message on my blog in faith that something pressing will resolve for all of you reading this blog.
Dadi states that our constant attempt should be not make our life as simple as possible. We must assure that we don’t become complicated for others and they don’t become complicated for us.  We have to make an effort for others to understand us because this is the only way we can understand God.  Our lives are meant to be of service to others and if our life is complicated, how will those who come into contact with us experience God in our presence?
Every day, every moment has to be special. We have to learn to consciously adjust to any situation at any time. We have to become aware to not run after questions and discover happiness in contentment.  We have to discipline ourselves that our thoughts, words, and actions are only for service and therefore at every stage and moment we have to be conscious that our words are appropriate and of use to those around us.  If our thoughts and words are appropriate our actions will become appropriate automatically.

We have to aspire to make our lives as clean as a sparkling like a mirror that reflects not just our own deeds but those that come into contact with us as well.  When we do that we will discover that everybody connects with us easily and they don’t have to mould and adapt themselves according to my temperament or personality.  If anyone has to alter to fit into our life it is inappropriate and unfair to them. 
So let us promise that nobody will ever suffer inconvenience because of us, let us aspire that we will not pose any difficulty by thought, word or action to anyone and the purpose of my presence on earth from today will be to provide service to all around me.

I will try for sure Dadi Janki and so will others reading this perhaps. Om Shanti.
