100 Words of Wisdom, part 2

Here is part 2 of the 100 Words of Wisdom from Dadi Janki.

1. I don’t have the consciousness that “I am an Indian”. I belong to the world. I am a global citizen.
2. People ask me, “Where do you get all your energy from?” Energy comes from my own spirituality, my connection with God, and from positive actions.
3. My happiness is my personal property from God. I won’t let anyone or anything steal it.
4. To make time your friend: keep awareness of the present moment, stay in step with its movements, and be ready for what the next moment may bring.
5. To live in the present is to do what you have to do – now. If not now, then never!
6. Be fearless. Live every moment as if it is your last.
7. Work for money and you will count your hours and your salary. Work for love and you’ll be able to work 16 hours a day, be happy and feel more energised.
8. Stay in the present. When you are in the present, everything is pleasant.
9. Keep your inner space clean. Recognise your rubbish and throw it out. Only keep what you need.
10. Don’t disturb anyone or allow yourself to get disturbed.
11. The experience of inner peace is like glue that puts back together all the broken pieces that make us peaceless.
12. When there’s a change in you, others are inspired to bring a change in themselves.
13. When you are a patient, have a lot of patience.
14. Be happy and distribute happiness. There is no nourishment like happiness.
15. Whatever you do, others will see what you are doing and will do the same. Think that you are a sample, an example for the world.
16. Understand your own value. If you don’t, others won’t either!
17. Let go of the 3 C’s: criticising others, comparing yourself to others, and complaining about others (even in your thoughts).
18. Value your own time and the time of others.
19. Never react to anything and never reject anyone.
20. Make your heart big. But don’t be a dustbin for other people to dump their rubbish on you.
21. Don’t speak too much or too fast. Be essence-full and clear.
22. Don’t be forceful when sharing ideas. With humility present your ideas and then let go.
23. Be your own friend and be everyone’s friend. Maintain the awareness that no one is my enemy.
24. See the goodness in others and you will soon stop seeing their weaknesses. Each one is good, each one is unique.
25. Have the aim: no one should complain about me, nor I complain about anyone.
