Wisdom of Wednesday (An English Podcast by Brahma Kumaris)

We all want to step up the game of life. All of us are looking forward to going to the next level. Well, there is a quality that we overlook or take for granted while talking about progress in life - Courage. As obvious as it may seem, every situation in life demands courage. In this issue of Wisdom of Wednesday, read about this sterling quality from the pen of a long time Rajyogi, a deep thinker and the National coordinator of Brahma Kumaris, Serbia - Michel Simon. Michel has made churning Knowledge into an art and you will be able to see his divine intellect in play as you go through the podcast.

Every issue of Wisdom of Wednesday is different, filled with heart-touching experiences of Rajyogis. In this issue, let's meet Maria Pangalou, former Olympian (Atlanta Olympics) and currently the centre Coordinator of Brahma Kumaris, Athens, and read about her journey.

The magnitude of the practical application of Rajyoga in our day to day life is simply overwhelming that it cannot be contained in these journals which showcase small anecdotes from the life experiences of Rajyogis. In this issue, read an account from Sis. Marianne Lizana, a young Rajyogi from San Jose, Costa Rica, who is a consulting psychiatrist as well. Read on as she narrates her Rajyogic experiences with special focus on Mental health and related issues.

Youth are usually given the benefit for their lack of accountability. "Leave it, they are kids..., Don't make it an issue, they are not of age..." The world is always eager to justify their actions and always give them the extra space which sometimes becomes an excuse for more irrational behaviour. This is where Rajyoga steps in. In this issue of Wisdom of Wednesday read the experience of BK Trang, a young model from the Fashion industry who accidentally started exploring her spirituality where the Youth around the world is still obsessed with exploring their physicality.

When the light of Rayoga reached the 'Dark' continent, Rajyogi gems emerged who are now spreading the light of Meditation to every corner of the world. One such gem is Sis. Elizabeth, currently the National Coordinator of Brahma Kumaris, Ethiopia. She is sharing her life journey with us in this issue of 'Wisdom of Wednesday'.

Self-transformation is a beautiful term and it is the crux of every spiritual process. It's something like a caterpillar - a worm changing into a magical creature - a butterfly. The transformation of an ordinary human being into a Rajyogi is just as Magical. Read the experience of Sis. Leela from Philippines where she shares her story of how she became a Rajyogi.

Rajyoga is not much of a theory as it is about living the basics. In today's issue of Wisdom of Wednesday, learn about the Journey of Sis. Kathryn - Coordinating TEAM member of Brahma Kumaris Belgium - where she shares her journey of becoming 'a walking, talking Yogi'.

Yet another Wisdom of Wednesday. A time for all of us for deep reflection. A small help to those who are trying hard to find answers. Wisdom from Rajyogis gives us a fresh perspective on life and how to live it fully. If these articles provide light to even a single person we would consider our effort a success. In this issue, let us dig into the Rajyoga experience of Sis. Egidija Laumenskaite, currently the National coordinator of Brahma Kumaris, Lithuania.

All of us are trying to find a safe haven within ourselves where we can be at complete peace. Reading through the experiences of Rajyogis from around the world I feel extremely happy for them for they found that haven. And I hope those experiences are going to help many many more to find their own haven. That's what makes me happy about this humble effort of 'Wisdom of Wednesday'. In this issue it is Bro. Manuel, a soft speaking but powerful Rajyogi, who shares with us how he found his haven.

What is Rajyoga? There is no one answer to that. I believe that every issue of Wisdom of Wednesday features an answer to that query. Read an account of the experiences of Sis. Halina, the National Coordinator of Brahma Kumaris, Poland in this issue of 'Wisdom of Wednesday' where she shares her take on Rajyoga from her own first hand experience.
