Success is for who we are, not for what we achieve, highlights BK Shivani. If we are contented, we celebrate others’ achievements. A weak soul isn’t happy seeing other people get more. This jealousy doesn’t let us be at ease, and hence quickly aggravates. Having qualities like honesty, sincerity, caring and sharing means success. We need to separate success from achievements.

BK Shivani clarifies that the 'I' which wants success is the soul. When soul experiences qualities of love, compassion, happiness and cooperation, it is full. This is success. It is about how contented we feel and how much we empower others. The belief that success is about more marks, achievements, wealth and position, made us compete and compare. This depleted soul powers.

BK Shivani emphasizes that one aspect of life is outside in our actions, and another aspect of life is in our feelings – both are independent. If we are successful (in action), it is not necessary that we will be happy (feelings). But when we are happy, our state of mind promotes success. Happiness is independent of material possessions, people and circumstances.

BK Shivani clarifies about the essence of happiness and success. Happiness is a feeling which needs only a good thought. It doesn’t need achievements or possessions. What happens is that we create nice thoughts whenever we buy or achieve anything, and those thoughts create happiness. So many of us mistake achievements to be sources of happiness and success.

Emphasizing that every thought and word carry energy, BK Shivani explains that what we say after "I AM ___" shapes our destiny. Words like “I am busy” or “I am addicted” create that reality. When we say “Everything is simple, I am happy”, situations may be difficult but we will remain happy. If our thoughts and words are blessings, their vibrations manifest.

Join BK Shivani to understand how to live a life of awareness and choice, by controlling the mind. At every moment, either we control the mind or mind controls us. Once we take a decision, the mind may create thoughts of distraction. We should not succumb. Our determination increases willpower. The mind gets disciplined and starts following our instructions.

BK Shivani explains that when negative thoughts first appear, they are at their weakest potential. We should be able to spot first signs of emotional discomfort like irritation, hurt, jealousy and change the thoughts. Otherwise they radiate to the body and create a disease, radiate to people and create conflicts. We need to see it in its beginning stage in the mind.

Explaining dynamics of the Law Of Cause And Effect, BK Shivani shares that we need to take personal responsibility for the Cause (our past and present karmas), in order to accept the Effect (consequences). Only then we can work on settling karmic accounts. Else we question or complain about our situation, thereby complicating it and carrying it forward.

BK Shivani clarifies that when Karmic account is between two souls, we can support them and help them settle it. But we should be careful not to get entangled and create our Karmic account. Settling karmic accounts requires inner power apart from knowledge. Daily study of spiritual knowledge and meditation strengthen the soul and makes karmic settlement easy.

BK Shivani explores the effects of holding resentment towards people. It is an energy connection of hatred and pain. Breaking this energy needs the energy of forgiveness. Some people forgive big mistakes while others hold on to small incidents, depending on emotional capacity of the soul. When we don't forgive, our karmic energy exchange continues in present and future lives.
