  1. Dear sister shivani,pls explain this, as you said in one of your episode that after death animal will be animal in next life,and human will be human.Also you said that animals do not come into law of karma,so why do some animal suffer very badly and some very good life.

  3. Respected Sister Shivani,
    I have been watching Awakening with Brahmakumaris for about a year now.The way you explain things have made me feel that I have found an expression to my thoughts. I believe in the law of Karma and Iam married for last 21 yrs.I have a 18 yr old son.Since the time I have got married I have faced lot of difficulties.I used to stay in Africa and have recently settled in India for my son's education.My husband had an affair while I was staying there some yrs ago and now that Iam in India he had an affair again. My son was a brilliant student, but now has got to know about his father's wrong doings and has gone out of focus. Here in India my husband provides for my son's education amd monthly expenses.I am a housewife.I had got married at the age of 18. My mother-in-law speaks very rudely to me and my son and treats me very badly.i try to talk to her patiently but after 2 days she gets back to her old self.My husband is very egoistic and spoils my son by giving him all expensive gadgets. I am the kind of person who believes that a person should value each and everything and wants my son to have all comforts but also learn to value and take care of everything. My mother-in-law is only interested in her son's money and has no attachment with him.Inspite of all this situation I try to be positive and think the I am repaying my Karmas.

    Sister Shivani, Iam very thankful to you because your talks motivate me to be a better human being and somewhere down I feel that on my spiritual path Iam very much connected.Thank You very much.

    Yours truly,
    Jyoti Jani

  4. Dear Mala,

    As per my understanding physical pain is not suffereing, suffering is an emotional thing. Emotions like betrayal. Raja Yoga is for Human souls.

  11. Dear shivani didi,
    Recently for the first time I saw your videos, and god I was impressed. It all seems very practical, but it seems very difficult to bring in practical life. Like you say in a very troublesome situation if we create positive thoughts, we can remain happy. But it's not being possible to think positively when things are constantly going wrong. Where is it possible to seek more help and more spiritual adv to solve our life problems from you? Kindly reply.

  12. Om Shanti Sister Shivani, I have been regularly viewing your programs for the last one year. I have done the Basic Course about 6 months back at BK center near to my work place in Pune. I do my meditation at 4am and take 1min break every hour to get the contact with Shivbaba. BK has really changed my life. I feel my real self always and I am in control of myself. Thanks to you a lot. Thanks to BK for the knowledge it has given. I wish to visit MoutAbu soon.

  13. Dear Sister Shivani and other sisters/brothers (who are seekers like me), I have gone through some of the Posts/comments of sisters/brothers. I would like to share my thoughts here. BK method has suited perfectly for me and I have faith that this is the only method to live happy life. We all can realize God/ShivBaba by following BK method. I suggest you to do the following:
    1) Firstly choose the nearest BK center and do the 7 day BK course. Keep your mind open, interact well, have faith and practice it as suggested by the sister who is teaching.
    2) As soon as you are learn Rajyoga meditation, start doing it at AmritVela ie., 4am daily. Try to have light dinner and sleep by 9.30pm or so.
    3) Before going to sleep you have to meditate and clear the negative thoughts created during the day.
    4) Through out the day stop every hour, 1 min and get connected to ShivBaba and fill up with positive, Peaceful, loveful, energetic thoughts.
    5) Please remember that your journey has started. It goes ON and ON. Through out your journey you will feel happy, peaceful, loveful. Also you might experience negative thoughts. Just remember that you are in your journey to SatyaYuga.
    6) Most important point is, with whom ever you had/have any problems, invite them in your 4am meditation and take energy/love/peaceful thoughts from ShivBaba and give them to the Atma with whom you have problem. Also any time you experience negative thoughts about them, create peaceful/loveful/energetic thoughts/vibrations to them. . . I PROMISE YOU WILL SEE MIRACLEs Happening . . . Om shanti to all. Thanks for reading. . . Raghuram

    1. Thanks so much Raguram. I too started my gyan jounery a month back, finished Rajyoga course, regularly do 4 am meditation and attempt to keep Shiv Baba in my consciousness all day. However there are times where i feel like giving very good vibrations to a soul i am having problems with but find it difficult to do, however other times i easily do. Please suggest how to muster all the love and strength to send love-ful vibrations when it seems difficult?

      Delete
    2. Om Shanti, I am really pleased to know that some times or many times you could send very good vibrations to the soul you would like to give power. Now you know that it works, only thing is some times you could not do. Though the journey of each and every individual soul is unique, I understood that it is a continuous learning process. You need to talk to Shiv Baba always about your progress . . Brahmans will get power from Shiv Baba from their Amrit Vela meditation. Baba will give you TOUCHING and tell you the tricks. We should talk to baba to get his suggestion for all our day to day problems. . Keep him always with you . . OM Shanti . . BK Raghuram

    3. Om Shanti. Thank you so much for the reply. Yes it has definitely gotten better..Baba now pervades everything i do- in the awaken state and also when i am asleep, therefore the progress is been very good. So much so that i now know, the soul i am trying to empower will soon be meditating with me at the centre, . Baba has gotten me in, will get him in too.

      Om Shanti

  14. Dear Sister Shivani and all other Sisters/Brothers, Om Shanti to you all. I would like to tell you two of the important points:

    1) One of the beautiful and practical suggestion given by Sister Shivani is, 1min break after every 1 hr. During that 1 min break, just say to your self that you are a Santa Swaroop Aatma (peaceful loving being) and just visit Shiv Baba in ParamDham, and come back. You have to bring the feeling of peaceful/lovefulness when you do this. other wise it becomes just dry. This is how we can be in soul consciousness through out the day.

    2) Another beautiful practical suggestion of Sister Shivani is, when you are about to meet any one, just tell your self that he/she is also another Shanta Swaroop Aatma. Again, You have to bring the feeling of peaceful/lovefulness when you do this. other wise it becomes just dry. You have to do this, when you meet each and every person in your daily interaction. In the beginning you have to forcefully do it, later on it becomes automatic. My experience is, this bring you +ve energy and people will be very comfortable with you.

    I am sharing this because, these I have tried and I am feeling very good. It appears that everything is perfect once I bring the change in me.

    Om Shanti to all of you.
    Thanks for reading.

  15. Problems comes when we expect more than we deserve. Suppose if you wish someone and he doesn't give you response, you feel neglected. Now do not generate this feeling in you. You have done your duty. Don't expect. You will feel relaxed. Raise yourself above the feelings. Try to strengthen your inner beauty.

    If each one of us recalls one's goods and bads of the day and analyse the same, someone finds goods more while the other more bads. We need to balance these twos. After balancing, now incline more towards goods that is parmarth. This will lead you to complete satisfaction.

  16. Om Shanti to all of you who have heard about BK. Believe me you are lucky to hear about BK and the best will follow if you can make the next few steps of taking up the Basic Course at any BK center nearest to you. I was trying many meditations and with luck I landed here . . thanks to Sister Shivani. I have done the course in Dec at Pune and did not attended the Murli classes regularly at that time. Thanks again to sister Shivani . . in one of her talks about Murli (about Khrod/Anger) on TV, I realized what murli is. Next day itself I started going to murli classes (about 45days back). I have experienced QUICK Learning and It appears the world has changed . . Please make a little effort to realize GOD (Shiv Baba) . .OM Shanti. . Raghuram Singh

    ReplyDelete
  17. Om Shanti, The most important things in my day are Amrit Vela Meditation (3.45am to 4.45am) and Murli in Class. Believe me only Murli can change your acquired sanskars(khrod, nafrath, irshya, unhappiness . .etc). All the acquired sanskars are the one we acquired over last 84 janmas. These are not our ORIGINAL sanskars (LOVE, PEACE, Happiness, Gyan, Shaktia etc)that is why it is very hard to change them. In short, if you want to experience unlimited happiness and give the same to others . . please please please go to Murli classes every day. . Om Shanti

  19. Reena, so sorry for your experience in marriage. You have to get over your hurt and ask what next ? If he is a gud worthy person, help him beat the drug habit, then ask yourself, can he be a productive citizen and gud husband ?? It will be a tough rocky road ahead so hang tough.

  20. Om Shanti to you Reena Behan, I have read your message to Sister Shivani. As soon as she has her attention to it, she will give your the best suggestion. I am having another beautiful suggestion, which I request you to try it out. Believe me your life will be beautiful and you will realize god. Please immediately try and find out your nearest BK center. Make a call and talk to the sister who picks up your call. Fix up your convenient timing. To solve your problems and even any one else's make your self available for a 45-60min per day for a 7 day period. . . attend the BK 7 day course .. Believe me you will feel fantastic and you will help others too . . . OM Shanti . . Raghuram

  22. Om Shanti Pooja Behan, I have read your message. I believe you have done the 7 day basic course and attending daily murli classes. If you have not done this, I sincerely request you to do it immediately. One great fact you learn in RajYoga Meditation of BK is the answer to the question "who am I?" The answer is you are an aatma like, I am and every one else. The basic qualities or, original sanskars of aatma are Shanti, Prem, Pure, Bliss, Gyan etc. , So aatma is already full . . if you know this fact, you will not be looking for the happiness OUTSIDE. To feel these original qualities of aatma it needs strength . . which comes from your Amritvela (4am-4.45am) meditation. RajYoga will make you realize that YOU CAN NOT CONTROL ANY ONE ELSE, EXCEPT YOUR SELF.

    Sister, by knowing this GYAN/Knowledge in a right way, you will attain strength to face and solve all your problems. By knowing the trick of controlling your thoughts you can change your destiny. . .

    Om Shanti
    Raghuram

  24. @pooja: You can take aid of relatives or persons whom he respects initially. Otherwise, live under the same roof and avoid him, happy with your own-self involved in good things.

    Are you his dependant -> financially? If not, then you should leave him. It is a valid ground of divorce as well as judicial separation, and you can claim maintenance(installments)/ alimony(lump-sum).

  26. Dear Brahmakumaris,

    I have written about my problem and I was hoping that someone will contact me.I think people only know how to write .They don't want to help anybody.I even left my email address.I thought that sister Shivani will definitely contact me.But people don't care.Please stop making fool of innocent people.I think brahmakumaris also want to spread their teachings or their spirituality.How can I say greatness about them.They are also like pakhandi Babe .I apologize if I hurt anybody's feelings. I called at their center for help.But nobody contacted me.I am alone.I just lost my husband.I am living with my relatives.It is very hard for me to go anywhere .So I can't go to center.I extremely apologize I am wasting your time.I don't need sympathy.I need only help that how can I survive.

    1. Dear Ritu,

      I read many post Above,but felt that you are in most pain.so replying to your post.i am a b.k from 12 years and from my experience i'll tell you one thing.b.k shivani might be very busy in her personal & spiritual service so it might be that she didnt get time to visit this blog or go through your mail.so dont get disappointed And just because nobody answered you does not mean nobody cares about you.See i just landed on this blog by chance and replying to your post.

      What you need is inner strength and power to face your problems,for that you need to know Almighty authority god,who is our supreme father and very loving one.

      I would suggest you to please go and visit your nearest b.k centre ,complete 7 day course and get to know how to talk and connect with god.once you know him and meditate on him you wont be dependent on any human for emotional support.he will take care of you.humans have limitations even if they are b.k,God is supreme.so just get to know him and i guarantee he will take care of you if you honestly follow his advice.please do visit b.k centre and take 7 days course.good luck !om shanti.

    1. Om Shanti Santosh Bhai, The first thing is you are aware of the fact that you are getting negative thoughts . . and also you know the reason for it. The reason has a positive side of it , , that is you have good amount of time for you to use. I am assuming that you are doing your regular Meditation at Amrit vela 4am-4.45am, Murli Class, Numa Sham Meditation 6.30pm to 7.30pm etc. . . It is needed, but if you could not do few of them . . try your level best. Get the Autobiography book of Brahma Baba and start reading it at home. At office try Churn the Murli Points. Always try to remind your self that you are SOUL not BODY . . . This is really a good game and Challenging one . . Bhai . . you need to take care of YOUR SELF .. try to read about BK on Net . . etc . .Om Shanti . . .BK Raghuram

  32. Sister Shivani,

    I regularly watch your show and have greatly benefitted from it. Thank you so much for making my life so much more peaceful.

    My dilemma is this.
    When I chose my life partner, I did everything right. He was well qualified, came from the same family background, same financial background, same caste, same city, same likes and dislikes, we were vegetarian by choice. I took compatibility to a whole new level.
    But my married life has been more bad than good. My husband has been physically abusive, though I think I have (hopefully) put an end to it by calling the cops. I just feel he feels guilty being happy so anytime things are going ok, he actively picks up a fight to go back to the sulk mode. My in-laws are in a lot of ways like the in-laws in the saans bahu serial. It has just been highly stressful, constantly struggling for a stable, relatively peaceful everyday life.
    I also want to tell you that I am well qualified, working and generally capable of taking care of myself and my 2 kids
    My question is this: When I see such a bad example of my marriage, how can I tell my daughter to get married? Isin't it better if she just stays unmarried, adopt kids and live a life where a partner is not making everyday life more difficult instead of helping.
    If I tell her to get married, what kind of boy should she look for. Because I honestly thought i got the formula right and i know I really screwed up.
    I would appreciate any input from you on this

  36. Has anyone here seen the finders course videos on you tube? I don't have the link so just search for it. They claim to be an experiment where people are getting awakened/enlightened/nondual in 2-15 weeks! Sounds crazy to me but it looks like it is based on serious research. What do you think?

  37. Hari Om Shivaniji, I am married and live with my in laws. I watched some of your videos in youtube and felt very good. I am practicing a few, like, trying to keep calm, no matter what... and am feeling good. Though I fail at times, I remind my self repeatedly. Now,I have a doubt. There is a person in my house who always, 24X7, finds fault and keeps yelling. How much ever the house/ scenario is good, some negative is found and yelled upon. Now, if I think that "finding mistakes and yelling" is his habit, how can I peacefully live with that person life long? I have tried telling in a good way to stop doing it, but its never ending. Now, since I have a kid, she too is affected by this constant yelling behavior. Please tell me, how do I deal with it.

    If karma works impartially, why do we have police, court, judges etc? Let Karma take over and punish punish him/her for their bad deeds..! Please clarify

    ReplyDelete
  44. Hi, This is what I feel. Just like how we have doctors, we also have police, courts and judges. They serve their role, to correct people when their actions are wrong or illegal. Unfortunately, we have a strong belief that "punishments/ guilt will result in realization" and are being enforced. It is "Empowering results in realization". One has to undergo Karma, be it or not for doctors/ police or any other... People just play their role. Thank you.

  49. The scientist in charge of the research, Madhav Goyal, discovered that the impact of meditation is similar to that of medications to treat depression . According to him, “after all, meditation is a way of training the brain. Many people have the idea that meditation is sitting and doing nothing, but that is not true. Meditation is an active training of the mind to increase awareness. ”
