How to overcome Ego | 5 Thoughts for overcoming Ego

Ego is one of the major reasons of conflict & disharmony… Hence let’s overcome Ego, by remembering thoughts like:

  • Any success is a result of 2 factors – Personal efforts & Nature’s gifts (incl. support of others)… Focusing on gratitude for these gifts keeps us egoless
    • Indeed, we’re unique … Many are yearning for the naturally gifted skills & talents we possess!
  • Ego is fuelled by looking at defects in others… Hence, a strong practice of looking at specialities & giving good wishes finishes Ego!
  • The virtues of unity, co-operation & teamwork are the antidote to ego
  • Remaining in the awareness of being God’s child (or God’s instrument!) naturally keeps us egoless
  • We know what we were before, & all that we have become now is only because of the knowledge & senior’s help… Hence, Ego is actually never possible!

Conclusion (How to overcome Ego)

Hence, let’s inculcate self-respect which instantly finishes Ego… And keep sharing love & respect with all, helping create a happier new world!

Let’s also learn how to overcome Expectations, Desires, Comparison, Competition, Hurry, Hurt, Jealousy, Guilt, Addictions, Anger, Greed & Fear

Some answers related to ‘Keeping attention on thoughts’!

Attention on our Thoughts picture

We have so much work to do, now we have to create more new thoughts??

Modern science has proved we create more than 50,000 – 60,000 thoughts every day… Hence it’s not about creating new thoughts, but just checking their quality in between..

Checking our thoughts seems difficult!

Checking just takes a second, is everything comfortable & easy inside? (if not, change in a second!) 

Like how if employee is doing work in hurry, we just tell him to relax, he does!… It’s as simple as that!

Like when baby in cradle cries, we just go & pacify him, & he becomes silent!… Simple!

Checking all the time?? 

just checking once every few hours is more than enough (since we’re just effectively ensuring everything is on track(… And we anyway take numerous such breaks throughout the day (lunch, travel, walking, waiting, restroom, etc) 

Look at the immense benefits! 

And this small attention has numerous benefits… Since it’s the mind which does everything outside, even a little correction of thoughts leads to lots of savings of energy, which has numerous benefits:

  • Increases work efficiency, creativity & job satisfaction 
  • Provides greater space to understand & accommodate colleagues, enhancing teamwork & overall work 
  • Keeps us comfortable & happy, even while being busy at work outside!

Still seems tricky! 

It’s really very simple… And if you’re really so commited at it, we can also set a Traffic Control alarm, (1 minute every hour)… Just 1-2 days for then making it a natural habit!… And get all the above benefits!

A life of belonging to God! | Eternal happiness, Belonging to God!

A life of belonging to God! | Eternal happiness, Belonging to God!

Although we’ve understood happiness lies in creating the right thoughts, but actually being able to create the right thoughts in practical always is an art! 

Hence, while on our own we may go through ups & downs… Following God’s elevated directions (which are most scientific & practical) very naturally keeps our stage nice & elevated throughout the day! 

Like:

  • Listening to God’s elevated versions (i.e., Murli class) at the Centre daily … Since it’s the most elevated source of information available, thus leading to elevated thoughts hence happiness 
  • Remember Him (i.e., Rajyoga Meditation), which results in a transfer of spiritual energy from Him to us… This acts like recharging of our battery (i.e., empowers the soul) which makes everything easy! 
  • Looking at virtues of every soul, keeping attention on our thoughts, taking few minutes silence breaks in between, giving a daily report to God every night, etc… Are other small but very very useful ways which significantly help maintain an elevated stage always! 

Benefits (Eternal Happiness, Belonging to God!)

Indeed, these make our life very rich & fulfilling… And also benefits everyone around, hence we earn their blessings at every step! 

And following God’s elevated directions feels as if God’s loving canopy of protection is upon us, we’re walking hand in hand, & He’s responsible… Just like a small child crossing the road, alone he may fear a lot… But with his hand in parent’s hand, he crosses the traffic (i.e., situations) very playfully! 

Conclusion (Eternal Happiness, Belonging to God!)

Hence, let’s always keep our hand in God’s hand i.e., keep following His elevated directions at every step… To remain protected, happy & successful always, in every moment of life!

Remembering the Ocean of Happiness | The biggest happiness, Connecting to God

Remembering the Ocean of Happiness | The biggest happiness, Connecting to God

If we remember someone who usually remains sad & upset, even we start feeling low… Remembering someone who’s usually happy & cheerful, even we feel good… Hence, remembering God, since He’s the Ocean of Happiness who remains ever-happy, keeps us filled with His waves of happiness!

It’s possible to practically experience God’s happiness in a second through Rajyoga Meditation… i.e., by considering ourselves a soul, & remembering God as per His accurate introduction (i.e., He’s an Incorporeal Soul, Ocean of All Virtues & Powers)

And this elevated experience & company of God, also prevents our old sanskars of sorrow from emerging!… Hence, allowing us to remain in the experience of happiness for long!

Indeed, it’s this spiritual happiness which the soul requires (since that’s it’s our original nature)… Only when unable to experience it inside, we start looking for it outside… But since external temporary attainments can never fully satisfy the permanent soul, we seem to be trapped in an endless pursuit of happiness!

Conclusion (The biggest happiness, Connecting to God)

Hence to experience this highest form of happiness… Let’s attend the free 7 Day Rajyoga Meditation Course at our nearest Brahma Kumaris Centre… To start experiencing a direct dynamic & personal relationship with God, which fills & satisfies the soul completely!

Related: ‘The Virtue of Giving‘

One of the greatest happiness is in spiritually serving others i.e., sharing our peace, love & joy with all. Because:

  • When we give love, respect, etc to others, that energy is first created inside us… Hence, we’re the 1st to feel good inside!
  • By giving we get the blessings from all… And this flow of very pure & positive energy coming towards us boosts our stage immensely!
  • The law of Karma implies that if we give happiness to others, it returns back to us manifold!
  • Seeing our actions benefit others is the greatest source of happiness
  • Since giving is an original nature of the soul, it (i.e., giving) keeps us closer to our pure original divine self!

Conclusion (The Joy of Giving quotes)

Hence like a flowing river, let’s continue the flow of giving to all, since that’s where our true happiness lies!

Going Beyond Questions | How to overcome Questions | All general knowledge questions and answers

Thinking of too many waste questions (what, why, where, when, how) drains a lot of our energy & happiness… Hence, let’s overcome questions! 

How? 

Spiritual knowledge provides an answer (to all questions!):

  • We’ve seen numerous times how a seemingly adverse scene (e.g., getting fired from job) turns out to be a boon (the subsequently started business flourishing!)… Hence, the realization ‘Every scene of this world drama is accurate & beneficial‘ is the single answer to all problems!
  • Why me? – It’s an accurate return of past karma (& everyone is facing different such things!), glad it’s over, now let me focus on creating a beautiful present! 
  • The awareness ‘I’m the Master of my thoughts & feelings’ finishes dependencies (& hence also unnecessary questions!) 
  • Why are they like this? – They’re souls on a long journey, hence have created many different sanskars (many of which they’re themselves troubled with!)… Hence, let me share goodness with them! 

Conclusion (Going Beyond Questions)

Hence, let’s shift from the crooked question mark sign to the simple full stop… To remain at ease, happy & content always! 

Let’s also learn how to overcome Expectations, Desires, Comparison, Competition, Hurry, Hurt, Jealousy, Guilt, Addictions, Anger, Greed & Fear
