Husband lost his well earning job and was not getting a new job. So the wife (Sister who is in connection) writes to us to seek advice or guidance. Here we shared spiritual wisdom to first understand the situation as it is, then see what good has happened and see the opportunity.
Essence: ‘Everything Happens for a Reason’

My problem is that my husband who is a professor of civil engineering is having very tough time for the last 2.5 years. He was doing job in USA and came back India for 1 year. So he lost his job. He is struggling alot to get a new job in India. He is highly qualified and experienced person but now no job. He is very kind and soft hearted person and believes in ideology of brahmakumaris.
I saw in videos that u send sakaash to people. Please pray for us as he wants to go back abroad. Please God help him also as he is suffering alot. We are also doing Swamaan of – “mere jivan me sab kuch achaa hoga” but failures have made us little fearful.
You discussed about your husband not getting a job after that 1 year leave. So you think this is unfortunate? Asked for Sakash and guidance. Please read with attention.
So first is that as he (your husband) is in connection with Prajapita BrahmaKumari Ishwairiya Vidhaylay (Godly University), he would know the teaching of KARMA. How our life story is decided upon the past karma – as its results are faced. explained that ”Whatever happens, happens for a good reason.”
Plus it is not necessary that the job was gone is a bad news. Maybe life has to offer something bigger. You see scene after scene of a story happens to ultimately conclude the final scene. God himself said – ”The final scene of each child (Soul) is great, is kalyaankari (benevolent)”. So always keep this slogan in mind.
”Whatever happened was good. Now is better. And future is even better” – But for whom? For those who follow the righteous path, does right karma, does not harm the self or any other by even thoughts, words or action. Please visit Law of Karma – Way of Living page to understand more.
If you have faith in yourself that you have done good karma and have good feelings for everyone, then it means you are a good soul. God has brought you in connection with this divine Yagya therefore. I believe this time (while you have no job) is given so that you can decide about this, come in more close connection. What is more important than coming to know our long lost and now found Godfather (Shiv Baba)
PRACTICAL ADVICE
Thinking positive means to know the self as a soul, to first accept whatever has happened till now and from now, to always keep your face towards the positive aspect of every situation. Even the problems we face, can teach us great lessons of life. These lessons are more important than simply having no problems. So you see – struggle is in the path to achieve the true success.
Practice these Swamaan (self-respects) to increase inner powers and hence to overcome all challenges -> http://bit.ly/Swamaan
Many new bks or non bks get confused between stories of Bhakti (path of devotion) and their meanings as per Gyan (spirituality). Here is our effort to handle a query related to Ram, Ravan and Ram setu. Read on.

Our email response + Guidance
To: Everyone reading From: Prajapita Brahma Kumaris Ishwariya Vishwavidyalya
Dear Divine Brother,
You have asked a right question. It shows you are inquisitive towards Godly Knowledge. Here is our response.
Your question has two parts. We’ll take it one by one. But first we suggest you to take 7 days rajyoga meditation course at your nearest center or online so that you understand vividly.
1. Who are Ram and Ravana?
As per Indian mythology, Ram and Ravan are depicted as two persons. One is titled as Lord Rama and other as Asur/Rakshash Ravana.. One is Considered as Good and Other Evil depicting the triumph of good over evil. And Ramayan is said to take place in Tretayug (the era of Swarg)..
God has revealed that at the time of peace and happiness, there cannot be Sadness. If in the time of tretayug (swarg), Ram and Ravan were together, then it couldn’t be called Swarg. So story of ram and ravan is made to teach a lesson to mankind in general.. First one being, good always wins over evil. Each such story in the Epic has a beautiful spiritual meaning.. Watch following two to know more->
Also, You might have known about a game called Chinese Whisperer, where a sentence if passes on to many people changes its form, meaning and essence. Same has been done with the great Epics of bhakti marg. Not only in Aadi-sanatam devi devta dharma but for all religions in the world. Religions were made to keep man on a right path but due to increased Tamsikta (तामसिकता), the lessons given by ancient saints has been dewormed.
2. Ram setu bridge
Brother, When you’ll take rajyoga meditation course, you will come to know that there happens transformation during changing of yuga (युग). First from satyug to tretayug, second from tretayug to dwaparyug, third from dwaparyug to kaliyug (and sangamyug) then fourth from sangamyug to satyug again.. during such Transformation both Virtues in human and geographical changes on earth takes place.
Since this world drama of 5000 years is eternal, there has been changing infinite times.
Ram setu, as shown in Ramayana was built to reach Lanka. Due to many geographical changes, a bridge happens to form, on which again as explained above stories have been formed which had a spiritual meaning.. This is nature of 5 elements.. Not to wonder if a geographical structure happen to exist like ram Setu made of floating stones..
Rajyoga is taught directly by God, the supreme surgeon. This has the power to solve any type of health problems. This is our step by step advice here.

My brother(18 years old) is suffering from Schizophrenia. Please explain what my parents should do in this kind of situation. They are turning old and we don’t want them and my brother to suffer.
Your love and concern for your brother shows you are a kind-hearted person. What he is facing today is the result of his past karma. Our past bad karma are destined to result into Bad outcomes.. While reading your email, it was easy to make out the reason.. It is the rule of nature ‘as you sow, so shall you reap’. As a family member is can be difficult to see him in such a condition. Be compassionate towards him but you must remain detached in order to help him better.
Through Rajyoga, as taught by God, we can solve this issue.
1. Whatever BK Shivani teaches are the direct versions of God. So it is most recommended for your whole family (including your brother) to attend 7 days Rajyoga course at your nearest center and connect to God, the supreme surgeon.
2. You said you all are giving him good vibes but no improvement is seen. This is because alone good vibes are not enough. To send REAL good vibes it is important to create an environment of purity around.. God told that Purity is the highest virtue –
Purity of food- Satvik bhojan (vegetarian diet excluding tamsik vegetables onion and garlic) + Offer this food to GOD (Bhog)
purity of water- charge water (most recommended, magical results)
Take good vibration to next level, i.e give sakash. You can wake up early in the morning and give sakash to him to heal from this disease-> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5C4_a03BSSM. Commentary to give sakash ->
4. Take Help from the hospital of Brahma Kumaris at headquarters. There are many surrendered doctors in Yagya who has given their lives for service. Two such names are BK Dr. Sachin Bhai and Dr Satish Gupta. They will treat your brother through both medical + Rajyoga.
5. Swaman meaning self respect through soul consiousness. This practice has helped many to come out of worse situations. Make your brother and parents do this.
प्रश्न : राम , सीता , हनुमान व रावण कौन हैं? – रामायण के पत्रों का अध्यात्मिक रहस्य।
What is the Spiritual Significance of Rama, Sita, Hanuman and Ravana? What or whom does these names represent?
✅उत्तर :
वास्तव में परमात्मा ईश्वर को ही ”राम” कहा जाता है। हम सभी आत्माए उनकी सीता रूपी पत्नी है। हममें से जो आत्माए राम (परमपिता परमात्मा) की श्रीमत पर चलते है, वे हनुमान जैसे आज्ञाकारी है। रावण वास्तव में कोई मनुष्य नहीं लेकिन ५ विकार रूपी माया को ही रावण कहा जाता है। परमपिता परमात्मा यही श्रीमत देते है की इन विकारो को जीतो। निर्विकारी व पवित्र बनो। अभी भगवान हमे रावण की लंका (नर्क) से निकाल, सतयुगी सुखमय स्वर्ग में ले जाते है – इसलिए अब पवित्र जरूर बनो।
1. राम राम वास्तव में निराकार शिव है जो संगम युग पर धरा पर अवतरित हो कर अपनी बिछड़ी हुई सीता ( सतयुगी आत्मा ) को रावण ( विकारों ) के चंगुल से छुड़ाने आया है ।
2. सीता हर वह आत्मा जो वास्तव में पवित्र है परंतु आज रावण के चंगुल में फँसी हुई दूख़ी व अपवित्र है ।
3. रावण पतित व विकार युक्त सोच व धारणा ही रावण है जिसमें फँसी हर आत्मा आज विकर्मों के बोझ तले दबती जा रही है। पाँच मुख्य विकार पुरुष के व पाँच विकार स्त्री के ही रावण के दस शीश हैं ।
4. हनुमान वास्तव में धरा पर अवतरित हुए परमात्मा को सर्वप्रथम पहचानने वाली आत्मा ( ब्रह्मा बाबा ) ही हनुमान हैं परंतु हर वह आत्मा जो ईश्वर को पहचान दूसरी आत्माओं ( सीता ) को धरा पर आए ईश्वर ( राम ) का संदेश देने के निमित बनती है वह भी हनुमान की तरह ही है ।
5. वानर सेना साधारण दिखने वाली मनुष्य आत्माएँ ईश्वर ( राम ) को पहचान कर, संस्कार परिवर्तन द्वारा पूरानी दुनियाँ या रावण राज्य ( पतित सोच पर आधारित दुनिया ) को समाप्त करने में राम का साथ देने वाली संसार की ३३ करोड़ आत्माएँ ही वानर सेना है।
6. लंका पूरानी पतित दुनियाँ यहाँ हर कार्य देहभान ( body consciousness ) में किया जाता है वह रावण नगरी लंका है l
Is the coming new world where the 2 forms of Vishnu (Shri Lakshmi & Shri Narayan) will rule the divine kingdom. Satyug is called Vishnupuri or Swarg (heaven). Puri – means a place. Vishnupuri – a place where Vishnu rules.
Paramdham
The Soul world. Our original residence is paramdham (Supreme abode) where we souls live before coming in the corporeal world to play our part. Soul is a tiniest point of light or consciousness. Scientifically, the Soul world is zero dimensional. There is no sound, no motions and no time. This is what the seekers (sansayis/sages) call – the Ultimate truth or Nirwana. Paramdham is our supreme home and the permanent residence of the Supreme soul (God).
– Are childhood names of Lakhmi and Narayan. It is explained in Murlis. Krishna is the first child born in the age of Satyug (first child born with the power of Yog). Radha follows. After their marriage, their names changes to Lakshmi and Narayan and they are the King and the Queen of Golden age in Bharat. Their Kingdom is still remembered as the ”Perfect world”.
3. Karma-Ateet
Meaning: Ateet (away/above) from the results of our own Karma. One who below aloof (above) of experiencing the result of karma. This is the highest stage of Soul. Closest to the supreme soul – Karmateet sthiti. This stage can only come when the soul is in complete knowledge of Drama and Yog power is at its peak. There is no worldly attraction. In such way the soul joins its intellect with Shiv baba.
4. God is the Father, Teacher and Guide
Father: Gives us the inheritance of new world (heaven), loves us and gives sustenance.
Teacher: Teach us the knowledge of truth (of Soul, Supreme Soul and World drama)
Guide: Takes us back to our the supreme home (home of eternal peace and light – Paramdham /Nirwana)
A small guide for parents or family member of someone who is at a young age suffering from a mental disease or in common terms – Change of Behavior (abnormal behavior). Here is our guidance. MUST read till end.
Original Email Received
Dear Sister Shivani,
Apologies for the long email but I wanted to explain the complete situation so that we can get the guidance accordingly.
Situation is very critical as my little brother has been diagnosed with SCHIZOPHRENIA (characteristic of schizophrenia: delusions, hallucinations, disorganized speech, disorganized behavior, and the so-called “negative” symptoms).
He sometimes become violent with my parents and also threatens them. As my parents are not that physically fit so it is becoming difficult for us to handle the situation and also his future is at stake.
Please me and my parents want to meet you sister Shivani so that we can understand and get the proper guidance regarding on handle this critical situation.
It will be very difficult for us to convince him to do the meditation at this point of time.
Whatever term doctor’s give to it – there i simply a need to look after the children when they are in this age. If parents are not strict enough – especially the city children who are exposed to such much negativity can be harmed like this. So parents are responsible to look after – if needed – very strictly.
Secondly – we have given a spiritual guidance, healing of mind and intellect through rajyog meditation – anyone can learn and daily practice. Will is all needed.
Third – You or parents can take him to attend lectures – spiriutal lecures held at many Rajyog centres, and even the main centre (Madhuban) or even BK Shivani’s program. This will atleast make him think what he really wants from this precious life.
It seems that this is more because of the age. In this age, it is seen that some children gets away (emotionally) from their parents due to reasons you know.
The spiritual solution is the best solution – but this is only possible if your brother supports. This requires him to willingly do meditation – learn a good day to day lifestyle (which includes many things)
So ask and convince him – if willing, we can guide you towards the spiritual healing. See- since the age of body is such that even hormonal changes can affect the mind. So whatever you speak to him -very careful. Do not say that ”You have a problem”. Instead say ‘You can feel much better as a person is you learn spiritual wisdom or adopt a good day to day lifestyle.”
After this, if your brother is ready – do let us know.
As you are connected to the Awakening TV series – also visit the link below for all episodes which are in an organised way:
These episodes – you can and should forward to your parents also. They are in a need of this – whatever you think is best for this situation – forward that episode or series (being bliss, happiness index, healing relationships, etc)
Hope you will receive more benefit from Awakening series.
A wife discovered husband was taking a wrong path in life (to fulfill sexual desires-affair). This vice of lust is your greatest enemy – God himself declares. Here is our response given and guidance on how to deal and decide what should be done.
Original Email Received
Dear Sister Shivani, I am married since 3 years now and I really love my husband and I tend to believe that even my husband loves me too and wants me in his life too. However I recently discovered that in my absence he takes the wrong path to fulfil his sexual desires ( he approaches prostitutes and uses other medium as well). It was shocking for me to know this fact as I used to think of our relationship as a perfect one and was very proud of it.
When I confronted him, he accepted that he did this thing and also that he has done it in the past as well however he said that he is regretful about it and promised me never to do it again in future ever. Since my relationship is very important for me and I have always believed in accepting the person as they are, so I forgived him. But still I found again he was repeating this mistake. What to do? How should I proceed?
Read your first email again. We sent you the link to our Forum because we have already answered such relationship based email letters and are posted on Forum.
”Purity is the best ornament of human being. If no purity, then no peace (since a pure mind can only sustain peace” Please read this article: Celibacy – A way of life.
Your husband has certainly took a wrong path. Godfather (Shiv baba) himself says: ”Lust is your greatest enemy.”
** Explain the below to them ***
God did not say anger is greatest enemy. God rightly said lust is enemy. Since you see this vice is the root cause of all evil. We are all brothers (as a Soul form). There is no difference. But when we start seeing each other as a body, this 5 vices gets a chance. Therefore ”Soul Consciousness” was the first teaching of God since the coming in 1936. For you only, I advice to please know the History of Yagya. (MUST visit)
Now coming to your husband. See, when a human being neither comes in Gyan (takes knowledge), nor does Bhakti (devotion), his chalan (manners) become poluted. Because one who does not remember the source of peace and purity shall definitely lack that.
Hence the first thing is to make him worship. (( Since the soul has this vice of lust, they will not immediately take any Gyan )).
Worship -> In morning, do Bhakti (pooja) based on your religion. This will atleast bring his intellect towards God and due to that he shall feel shame to do anything wrong. Understood?
You yourself have to care about this. In morning, wake up first and put on devotional songs in your home. After bath, you both sit for Pooja. You can lovingly force him to sit with you.
(( For some days, completely forget about his past. Let the soul heal itself.))
This will surely work if you follow correctly.
NEXT – Convince him to watch ”Awakening” series – watch from YouTube the episodes you like the most.
NEXT – It is known that whatever we see and listen during the day does affect our mind. Hence here are divine songs you and husband should DAILY listen. This will surely bring an ‘immediate’ transformation which you will see practically.
Water is essential for life. Education should first teach us how important is safe water for our day to day life. How can we sustain the clean water and its sources. So here is our view on the importance of saving water on Earth and in general – all Earth’s natural resources.
To: Everyone Reading this From: Prajapita BrahmaKumari Ishwariya Vishwa Vidyalay (Godly Spiritual University)
Topic: Saving Nature’s resources
The way of living with consciousness is a general and better way of saying – save water or save environment.
In today’s time, the lifestyle of people has changed in a way which is also impacting our nature. We cut down forests to make timber for furniture, for papers, for medicines, etc. Cutting down trees definitely impact our environment. It rains more in some places and less or not enough in some places. With lesser trees, is a lesser production of oxygen, which is essential for everyone. As conscious beings (human beings) we all are equally responsible for protecting the mother nature.
”Our great country India has been known as ‘Bharat’ since the very ancient time. Our country, around 5000 years ago was completely different. The people were with divine nature and the climate (nature) was our servant. Nature was perfect. There was plenty of clean and even herbal water. The population was very less. The residents of great Bharat were deities, who were very conscious of mother nature. They used its 5 elements (water,earth,fire,air,space) in the right way – in order to benefit everyone… now after 5000 years, our earth’s resources have degraded. Water is polluted. We all have caused this. It is time to get up, to realise that without clean air and water, life is not sustained. This is our priority.”
Water
Water is life. We have learned this in school, painted such posters in our drawing classes. But do we understand? How many of you follow this 100%? The importance of something is realised in its absence. There are many regions in the world where there is a shortage of water supply or there is no clean water.
To add – only 5% of water on earth is drinkable. And from this also, the polluted rivers (through industries, etc) can be cut down. Remaining only 2 or 3% of water reaches our home. Yet it depends on many factors whether or not that water is drinkable. Some uses a ‘water purifier’.
Not only water, but misusing any of nature’s gifts is not a wise way of living. Mother nature is full of grace and ever-giving and we should learn this virtue from nature.
Meditation
Meditation is a connection with body, nature and then the Supreme soul. This makes us conscious for the climate in which we live. Meditation, in which we spread peaceful vibrations around us which passes to the nature, reaching the five elements (water, air, earth, fire, space). RajYog or meditation have no connection with body or posture of body. You can do RajYog (meditation) even while standing, sitting on a sofa or lying on bed. This meditation is an intellectual connection with GOD. Learn more -> Raja Yog meditation

Our Email Response
From: BK Shivani, Prajapita BrahmaKumari Ishwariya Vishwa Vidyalay (Godly University)
To: Richa
Dear divine sister
Good morning
Your email letter is received. Here is the response.
Your question is – How to tolerate harsh words of someone? Right?
There are 2 ways and out of which only 1 is better. The better way is ”love”.
You have to tolerate with ”love”. Do you know some people love to do something, even when that ‘something’ is weird. Likewise, you should and can develop love to tolerate. This only can happen when you know why you have to tolerate.
WHY TO TOLERATE?
Not because they are right or wrong. But because when you tolerate, 2 nice things happen.
1. Karmic account between you and them starts solving
2. You become stronger within.
In both ways you are in benefit. So make this a love. When they speak harsh words, smile and send them good words, good feelings. You will see within few days or weeks that they also starts having the same good feelings for you. This is nature’s law.
HOW TO TOLERATE?
To tolerate does not mean not to react. It also does not mean simply not to speak or come in conversation with anyone. In fact, the power to tolerate comes when there is a situation where you are tested.
The source of toleration is love. Love makes everything easy. This will make you powerful from within.
A higher way to tolerate other souls – is to regard this as a Shrimat or direction to us children by our Spiritual father (GOD). We all love God, hence if we consider this an advice or direction of God, this tolerating becomes easy. OK?
