Every girl is divine and has great potential hidden within her. She is just like a bud, which is waiting for an opportunity to bloom like a flower. Potentialities and abilities of a girl are not less than anyone in this World. It hardly matters, where she resides!

And if we talk especially about rural areas, we have to say – it is a myth that girls cannot work in rural areas or they have nothing to do over there! In rural areas, girls are working equivalent to or even more than boys. For the whole day, a girl goes out in fields to work and to earn.

And sometimes she earns even more than a boy. A boy’s job ends when he comes back home from fields, but a girl has to work from dawn to dusk, she has to do all her household works also. And if we compare, we will be astonished to observe that a girl works much more than boys in rural areas.

It is true that they don’t get opportunities to go and work in institutions. But we should also look at the other side of the coin that in rural areas freedom, options and jobs are limited not only for girls but this condition applies to boys too. So what the need of the hour is – to take initiative in this direction.

Gurumaa Ashram is working a lot to open the doors for these girls, as-

1. Scholarships are provided to the girls of rural areas who wish to go for higher education.
2. Vocational training is given to them.
3. Opportunities are provided to create careers for them by handicrafts and entrepreneurship, so that they can work even while sitting at their homes

Just talking about the miserable conditions of girls is not enough; rather we need to do something constructive. All the youngsters who have passion, who can spare time to serve can enroll themselves in a “Mystic Club” and become the volunteer to serve these girls.

Youngsters should use their divine power to evolve their personalities and then of others. Because you serve you become God. Try to be a giver not only a receiver. To know more about enrollment in this club just click here.

Anandmurti Gurumaa motivates women to fortify their energy and respect themselves as women. In order to not just confine her teachings to mere words, Gurumaa in her true crusader spirit, has launched the project “Shakti”- An initiative to empower the girl child.

In this very insightful and humorous video, Gurumaa says that a cool-headed person cannot lose his temper and act in rage – whatsoever the situation might be. Similarly a hot-headed person cannot stay calm and composed even in a very cool and serene situation. It all depends on the state of our mind – whether it is calm, balanced and composed, or it is in a state of imbalance, anxiety and restlessness.

Gurumaa suggests some wonderful meditation techniques such as Tratak, mantra chanting and yoga nidra; yoga asanas such as surya namaskar; pranayam techniques such as nadi shodhana and devotional meditations such as kirtan and group mantra chanting to balance the inner chakras and bring the mind to a calm, composed and relaxed state.

By the practice of these techniques, one can easily overcome all mental complexities, anxiety and aggressive behavior. Once the mind gets in a state of natural ease and balance, the inner bliss and happiness arises automatically.

Gurumaa is a true meditation maestro and knows the deepest intricacies of meditation. In a question put up by a student on why is it so difficult to meditate and how to make the wandering mind more focused on meditation, Gurumaa explains why this wandering and wavering of the mind happens in the first place and how to overcome it.

She suggests a few techniques such as om mantra chanting, pranayam, nadi shodhan pranayam, tratak and brahmari pranayam for making the mind more stable, balanced and focused. She also assures that wandering of the mind is not a very big problem to worry about, just the right steps need to be taken and one can easily make the mind more focused in meditation.

Adolescents and teenagers have this curiosity to know whether it is appropriate to be involved in friendship and deeper relationships with their opposite sex. Here is an amazing video where Gurumaa imparts the essential wisdom for adolescents.

Gurumaa says that it is definitely healthy for boys and girls to be friendly with each other; but it is much healthier to restrict it to friendship only.

She explains the reasons why relationships at this tender age are not stable and permanent, how the hormonal secretions can play havoc in your life if not managed properly and what is the right approach to come out as a winner during this crucial age.
