I choose to smile! Smile # My pledge
Interaction with Brahma Kumari sisters is always like opening up
of floodgates. There is an unexplored ocean of knowledge and depth in each word
which helps in refining and redefining the purpose of one’s life.
Dadi Janki on one of her visit to Europe made a pledge to smile on seeing grief and misery all around her. She made an affirmation that at least
from her side, she would not add any burden to the already existing burden in the souls
who came in contact with her. This was her way of keeping her karmic account in
a positive balance. Initially, many foreigners got offended, thinking Dadi was
mocking at them. Gradually, they learnt about her pledge and the reason for her
smile. This generated great amount of respect for her.
I was impressed by this beautiful thought. Little efforts lead to
great transformations. If each one of us takes individual responsibility, soon Earth
will become heaven. Each one needs to shift focus from outer world towards one’s own
inner world. If we attempt to make even
one change in our behaviour or daily routine, it will act like a stepping stone
towards a happier world.
Inspired by this anecdote, I have made a pledge. I will always
wear my smile. Even if, I am unable to alleviate someone’s suffering, I will make
all conscious efforts, not add to it. Each one, aspire to inspire one. This
kind of chain reaction will help in resetting the world.
Hope you are wearing your smile, as you leave your comments.
Love,
Juju.

Very true ..as oft heard since childhood ..SMILE is the one curve that sets everything straight 🙂👍👍
Great thought! The best thing about smiling is that after some initial investment of conscious efforts, it becomes your face !!
