Brahma Kumaris

To celebrate Holi means to burn the weaknesses in the fire of determined thought and to celebrate the pleasure of ameeting.

Today, BapDada, the Master of the spiritual garden is seeing a double garden. (Today, the stage is decorated as a beautiful garden.) On one side is the beauty of nature, and on the other side is the beauty of the garden of the spiritual roses. The satopradhan beauty of nature at the beginning of the drama in satyug is only for you spiritual, elevated souls, and is only attained by you master adi dev, adi souls. Even at this time of the final moments, you can see the beauty of nature. However, there is so much difference between that of the beginning and that of the end. How elevated, satopradhan and beautiful the form of nature will be in your golden aged kingdom! There is so much difference between the garden there and your garden here. You have experienced that real fragrance, have you not? Even so, nature plays its very good part till the end. But you elevated souls are the masters of nature. You are the masters of nature, and so you are happy on seeing the games of nature. Whether nature fluctuates or shows you beautiful games, the souls who are the masters of nature observe both these games as detached observers. You do not become confused by the games. You experience pleasure, you do not get confused. This is why BapDada is especially making you have the practice through tapasya, of stabilising yourself in the unshakeable and immovable stage by seating you on the stage of a detached observer. So do all of you like the seat of this stage? Is it good? Or, is the seat of fluctuation better? You like an unshakeable seat, do you not? No matter what happens, whether through nature or individuals, neither can even slightly shake the seat of an unshakeable stage. You are that firm, are you not? Or, do you still have to become that?

Nature has five players and Maya also has five players. You know all the ten very well, do you not? What would players do? Would they remain without playing games? So, sometimes one player comes in front of you, and sometimes another player comes in front of you. Nowadays, many are very interested in watching games. They love to watch games so much! So you are the Brahmin souls of the confluence age: they are the souls of the old world, whereas you are the souls of the confluence age. So should you enjoy yourself in watching the games or should you get confused? Do you ever get confused? You do not, do you? Some fall and some make others fall, but those who are watching the games enjoy themselves when they see others fall, and they also enjoy themselves when they see others attain victory. So, this is also a very big game. Just do not let go of your seat, that is all. No matter how much someone tries to shake you, you powerful souls cannot be shaken.

So today, BapDada is seeing each spiritual rose. Since you have called Baba into the garden, what will Baba see in the garden? Will He see the leaves or the flowers? You have decorated this well. It is a great wonder of those who have made the effort. However, BapDada is seeing the spiritual flowers. Of course there is a variety. Some are very colourful and beautiful; they have colour as well as beauty. And there are also those who have colour, beauty and fragrance. Both are loved ones. Here also, some have fragrance, whereas others simply have colour and beauty. All the children now have colour and beauty, because all of you are coloured by the company of the Father. Even if some are not completely content about the aspects of interaction with others or in the aspects of making effort, the colour of the company of the Father is extremely loved by all. This is why all of you have the colour, and because you have become Brahmin souls, your form has also transformed. By becoming Brahmin souls, no matter what type of an effortmaker soul you are, your form definitely changes. Every Brahmin soul has the sparkle and beauty of being a Brahmin soul. This is why colour and beauty are visible in each of you. Fragrance is number wise. Fragrance is complete purity. Generally, those who become Brahmins are called Brahma Kumars and Brahma Kumaris. To become a Kumar or a Kumari means to become pure. You were told previously also that the definition of purity is very subtle. It is not just celibacy. To be celibate with the body means to be beyond attachment to the body. Simply to be celibate through the body is not called complete purity. To be celibate in the mind means that the mind should not be attached to anyone except the Father. To be celibate in the body, celibate in relationships with others, and celibate in your sanskars: the definition of this is very deep and lovely. Baba will tell you the detail of this at some other time. Today, you are going to celebrate Holi, are you not? So this is not a deep study; today, you are just going to celebrate.

So who are those who are going to celebrate Holi? The holy swans. How lovely the holy swans are! Swans are those who constantly swim in the water. Holy swans are also those who constantly swim in the water of knowledge; they are those who fly and those who swim. So all of you know how to fly and how to swim. To churn the knowledge means to swim in the nectar of knowledge, and to fly means to constantly remain in an elevated stage. You know how to do both, do you not? Or, do you only know one? Do you know both? All of you have more than one hundred per cent love in your mind for the Father, and Baba also has love for the children, no matter whether they fall, or whether they climb or play games. Seeing their games, Baba understands that they are slightly mischievous. Not all children are the same: some are mischievous, some are serious, some are entertaining and some have a very fast nature. But even then, they are still Baba's children. The word, 'children' is very lovely. Just as the word, 'Bap' is very lovely for all of you, so what is lovely for the Father? Children. Baba is never disheartened with any child. Heal ways has pure hopes for them. Even if some go away, BapDada still has hope in them. If not today, then tomorrow! Where else would they go? In physical karmic accounts too, some may be very ill, and some would only be slightly ill. Those who are very ill take a little longer to get better, and those who are only a little ill get better quickly, but both are ill. Even physically, no matter how ill someone may be, you never lose hope in him. You constantly have hope in him. If not today, then tomorrow, he will get better. This is why BapDada is never disheartened with any children. He always has the pure hope that if today the child is a little slack, tomorrow he will become clever. Since the destination is one and the Father is One, where else can they go except to the Father? Even so, all the souls are to receive the inheritance from the Father. Even if they insult the Father, Baba would still give them the inheritance of mukti. All the souls of the entire world are definitely going to receive the inheritance, whether of mukti or jeevanmukti. Because of having incarnated on this world, Baba cannot deprive the children of their inheritance. Baba has to give them the inheritance. Whether they take it or not, Baba has to give it. All souls received the inheritance from the Father, and this is why they call out to Him as the Father. The meaning of Father is the one who gives an inheritance. No matter which religion they went into, they still remembered Him as the Father. Why do they remember Him? They remember Him because they received the inheritance from Him. Not a single soul can be deprived of receiving the inheritance. So, if whilst playing a part on the corporeal world, Baba does not give the children an inheritance, who would call Him the Father? How could you call Him the Father? However, you claim the inheritance directly, you claim it through recognition. You have a direct connection. Even though Brahma became the instrument medium in the corporeal form, you do not have yoga with Brahma, you have yoga with the Father. Father Brahma also said: Remember the Father.

He did not tell you to remember him, but to remember the Father. You can never receive the full inheritance from any relationship other than that of the Father. You forge a direct relationship with the Father and claim a right to the inheritance in all three aspects of time. You are receiving the inheritance even now, are you not? You are receiving the inheritance of the virtues and the powers even now. You have already received it. Where will you stay in the land of liberation? You will remain close in the land of liberation, will you not? So you have the inheritance now, you will have it in the land of liberation and you will also have the inheritance of twenty-one births. So, you claim aright to the inheritance in all three aspects of time. People tell you: Our mukti is better than your jeevanmukti. You will come into the cycle, whereas we will be liberated from the cycle. So you can tell them with intoxication: We will also receive the inheritance of mukti, but after receiving mukti, we will also receive the inheritance of jeevanmukti. So you receive double, do you not? You will go via the land of liberation, will you not? You will not go directly, will you? So because of having a direct connection, you claim a right to the inheritance in the three aspects of time, that is, the present time, after death, and then whilst taking a new body. So, do you have that much intoxication? (Hanji.) When you return home, you will not write, 'na ji', will you?

So today, you are celebrating Holi, are you not? So in Holi, something is burnt and something is celebrated. First, you burn something, and then you celebrate. To celebrate Holi means to burn something and to celebrate. You cannot celebrate without burning something. So through the fire of determined thought, you must first burn your weaknesses, only then will you be able to experience the pleasure of celebrating. If you have not burnt them, the experience of the pleasure of celebrating will not remain all the time. So will you first burn something or will you first celebrate? You will do both, will you not? If you remember the meaning of the word 'holi', you have then burnt something and also celebrated. In the word 'holi', there is the burning and also the celebrating; there are both meanings. The word 'holi' is firm, is it not? This is why you are celebrating, are you not? So holi means 'ho li', past is past. Whatever happened in the past is said to be 'ho li' (it has already happened). That which had to happen has happened. So whatever happened in the past, that is, to let the past be the past means to burn Holi. And then, Holi is the time when you come in front of the Father, and you say: I have now become Baba's. Now that I have become Baba's, I have celebrated, and have also let the past be the past. To forget the past means to burn. So in the one word 'holi', there is burning and also celebrating. You sing the song: I have now become Baba's. You are firm in this, are you not? BapDada has seen everyone's chart of tapasya. If your tapasya was lacking at any point, what was the reason for that? In letting the past be the past, instead of applying a full stop, you put a question mark. And you make one other mistake. You make a small mistake. It is a small mistake, but it does cause a lot of damage. What is the mistake that you make, do you know? You remember that which you have to forget, and you forget that which you have to remember. It is a small mistake, is it not? Or, is it a big mistake? So you know how to forget, do you not? You do not wish to forget the Father, but even then, you forget Him. So you know how to forget. And when you have to forget something, why do you not know how to forget at that time? What do you say at that time? I wish to forget, but I cannot forget. I remember it again and again. So you know how to remember and also how to forget, you know how to do both. But what do you have to remember, and what do you have to forget? At the time when you have to forget something, you remember it, and at the time when you have to remember something, you forget it. It is a small mistake, is it not? So let this be the past, burn it and finish it. Finish it with all its traces.

You are the enlightened souls, are you not? Enlightened souls means those who are sensible. And you understand all the three aspects of time, not just one aspect, but you understand all the three aspects of time. This is why to celebrate Holi means to burn this mistake; to forget that which you have to forget in one second, and to remember that which you have to remember in one second. The reason why you don't is that, instead of a full stop, you put a question mark. You were told earlier: As soon as you think, 'why' (kyu), a queue is formed. "Like this, like that, why, and what etc." A big queue is formed simply by putting a question mark. And what will happen if you apply a full stop? You are a dot, Baba is a dot and you also apply a dot to that which is wasteful. A full stop, not just a stop, but a full stop. This is called Holi. And through this Holi, you constantly celebrate the Holi of celebrating a meeting with the Father, and being coloured by the company of the Father. Which is the most fast colour? No matter how fast physical colours may be, the most fast and the most elevated colour is that of the company of the Father. So celebrate with this colour. Look at your memorial of the gopes and gopis celebrating Holi. Have you seen the pictures of the gopes and gopis playing Holi? What has been shown in them? Baba and you both play Holi together. Gopi Vallabh(Father of the gopes and gopis) has been shown with all the gopes and gopis. So what have you become? You are together, are you not? The eternal Holi is that of the colour of the company of the Father, and the memorial has been shown in the form of a dance in the company of the Father. So you know how to celebrate Holi, do you not? So from today, burn the Holi of, 'It just happened, what can I do? I did not wish it to happen, but it just happened'. Finish all of this. One who is a master almighty authority can never have this even in his thoughts. Achcha.

The double foreigners are moving forward in the expansion of service. You have love for the Father and also for service. Service means service of the self as well as that of all other souls. First is the self, because only those who have created their stage can remove many other souls from their difficult situations. Success in service is the stage of the balance between the self and others. Do not ever say: I was very busy in service and this is why the chart of my stage became slack. If you earn on one side and lose it on the other side, what is saved? This is why, just as Baba and you are combined, the body and the soul are combined, and your future Vishnu form is combined, in the same way, let the service of the self and the service of all others be combined. Do not separate them. Otherwise, you have to make greater effort and receive less success. It will be incomplete. It will be cut by half. Therefore, it is good that you are moving forward with zeal and enthusiasm. In the chart of this group also, there are more in the second number. There are very few in the first, fourth and fifth. You have reached the second number, but what precedes the second number? It is the first, is it not? So you have placed your foot on the second number, but now, you have to place your foot on the first number. The method for that is to do service in the combined form. Children are making plans for service, are they not? BapDada gave a signal that according to the time, the service you have done up to now has been very good. Through this, you revealed Baba and yourself, and the atmosphere and the vibrations were transformed. A large number of loving and cooperative souls in all four directions came close. Now do such service that through one, many others are served. You have to give the message to the entire world. Whilst you were giving a message to each soul, those souls who are to come into the kingdom created their fortune and have already come forward. But now, the population of those who are to receive the message is greater than the emerged children who are to claim a right to the kingdom. Both types of souls have emerged: those who are to come into the royal family and those who are to sit on the royal throne.

All of you will claim a right to the kingdom, will you not? Or, will the others who come claim a right to it? Who will claim it? Will you claim it, or will you make others claim it? What will you do? You will give others a chance too, will you not? And what will you become? You will make others into those who have a right to the kingdom, and so what will you become? You will become even greater than they.

So now, in order to enable the message to reach all four directions, bring such souls close, so that one soul becomes an instrument for many. Only then will the speed of giving the message be fast. This is why BapDada gave you a signal earlier also, that wherever there is the greatest population, now make such souls instruments; whether in institutions or industries, both have a greater population. Then by your making one soul worthy, he becomes your service companion and brings others close. You simply continue to give a message and move forward. Make them the instruments to give the message. Now, according to the stage of you souls, you will receive a readymade stage. Give others a chance to use their body, mind and wealth for service. Whether they use their body, their mind or their wealth; it is only then that they will go into the subjects of the golden age. If they do not use anything, how will they go there? Let them sow the seed. All of you have already sown the seeds. You are now receiving the fruit.

Now prepare such a group that any of them can go for service and give a message in any direction for one or two months. At one time, there should not just be one group, but prepare seven or eight groups at the same time, and let each group go and do service in their own area. Whether it is a small country or a large country, prepare a group closeby and send that group on service. However, the method of service that that group should have in their intellect is that they should awaken a main one who would then awaken others. Prepare them there and continue to move forward. Whenever you wish to increase service, the first question that arises is: Where will the hands come from? Will the hands come from the subtle region? Prepare such souls in every place, and then give such souls, who have been prepared and in whom there is hope, special time and training, so that they can then continue from then onwards. And those who are the instruments should continue to tour around. The old centres have now become strong, have they not? So, tour around the new centres and make the new ones old. The method to make the hands worthy is to give them training from time to time. In places that are closeby, whether there are eight or ten souls, it is essential for them to receive training from time to time. Just as previously in Bharat too, sometimes there were youth groups prepared, sometimes education groups and sometimes the doctors' group, in the same way, prepare a group in the places which are still remaining and keep the aim that you must make someone from there an instrument. Continue to make them instruments and continue to move forward. Now, you have very good connections and relationships. Everyone has a very good impression in their mind, and therefore, by your keeping this aim, you will find such cooperative souls. Do you wish to come here after having held a conference, a yoga camp, or having given a lecture? It should not be this, but your aim should be that you have to prepare hands. Even if you first run that place as a Gita Pathshala, gradually it will become a subcentre from a Gita Pathshala, and a centre from a subcentre. But wherever any group goes, it is impossible for them to attain success without doing combined service. It shouldn't be that you go to do service, and when you come back, you say: I faced Maya, my mood was put off, I became disturbed. Its should not be like this. Because of this, the instrument souls are afraid to send you on service. They will not have the courage. They have to think that perhaps whilst serving others, will you yourself not become slack? This is why you must underline this: The method for success in service or expansion in service is the combined service of the self and others.

All the double foreigners have brought many letters of love and remembrances from many places. So BapDada received three types of letters: one is a letter of extreme love and good news. The second is the news of the aim that they have kept of moving forward in their effort, and the third is the news of those who are slightly mischievous every now and again. Some have written one thing and others have written something else. However, BapDada responds to all who have written a letter: Always have a combined stage, that is, always remain in the combined form of Baba and I, do combined service and constantly keep the full aim of the angelic form in front of you. Today, you are an effortmaker and tomorrow you will be an angel. The angelic form should always be in front of you in the same way as your form is always in your consciousness. You never forget your physical form. So, just as you always remember your physical form, in the same way, your angelic form should clearly and constantly be in front of you. You are now about to become that. "We were angels, we are angels and we are the ones who have to become the angels every kalpa." So continue to fly with courage, zeal and enthusiasm. You write very well with an honest heart. This is a speciality of the double foreigners. You are very clear. You are not those who hide anything. So you are clear, and the meaning of being clear is to be elevated. Double foreigners have very good power of checking themselves. Now, keep the power to change yourself with you to the same extent. You do have it, but you have the power of checking to a slightly greater extent. The power to change is slightly lacking, so keep a balance between these two. Just as you are clever in checking, if even something little happens, you relate it clearly. So be clear and elevated, check and change. Do you understand? Everyone's letter has reached here. Give everyone this message, otherwise they think: I sent a letter to Baba, but I did not receive a reply. You give love and remembrances from deep within your heart, and as you give them, you also receive them. You receive the return of it at that time. If someone writes about his weakness with an honest heart, then Baba, the Ocean of Forgiveness, forgives his weakness at that moment in return. Do you understand? BapDada sees many cards and letters of love, and He gives so much time with so much love. Those who give a gift are themselves a gift for the Father. To give a gift means to receive a lift. So you must not simply give a gift, but also receive a lift. Achcha. There are many new ones in this group that have come. All those who have come here for the first time, raise your hand! All of you have received a chance to sit in the front. You have arrived here to receive your inheritance of the previous kalpa, and so BapDada is welcoming you for that. He is giving you congratulations for the birthday of your new birth. Achcha.

To all those in all four directions who remain stable in the combined stage; to those who constantly become the instruments and remain tireless in the combined service; to the holy swan souls who constantly let the past be the past and who celebrate the Holi of the colour of the company of the Father; to the souls who remain in the happiness of the inheritance of all three aspects of time; to those who constantly remain a detached observer and observe the games of nature and Maya; to such constantly victorious souls who constantly have a flying stage, the elevated souls who experience their angelic form in front of them, BapDada's love, remembrances and namaste.

Letter of sweet love and remembrances from Dadiji 19th March, 1992for Double foreigner brothers and sisters:

Please share this message of love and inspirations with those souls who have belonged to Baba and are not regular students any longer. Sakar Baba remembered them in the murli and now Avyakt BapDada also remembered them in this murli. Please contact these souls to give them Baba's remembrances:

"The extremely loving souls who experiment with yoga using the many intense methods and instruments in the Year of Tapasya, those who are faraway and yet very close to the heart, please accept love and remembrances.

Today, sweet BapDada especially remembered the double holy swans who fly and swim, that is those who constantly stay in the elevated stage and who swim whilst churning the nectar of knowledge. Baba played holi personally with all these children and also gave special greetings and remembrances for Holi festival.

Baba says: Holi means 'ho li', that is, I have now become Yours. Baba especially remembered those children who have left Baba due to one reason or another and have left Baba's study. Together with this letter, I am also sending Baba's special murli. Baba, the Ocean of Love, the Merciful One always has a vision of mercy, a feeling of forgiveness and the pure inspiration of letting the past be the past and moving forward to earn an income for the future. Baba is always calling the children in a subtle way, saying, 'Come child, come. Do not lose your inheritance due to Maya.' You can hear these words echoing in your ears, can you not? As soon as you hear these words from Baba, the sound emerges, 'Sweet Baba', and Baba replies, 'Sweet child'. You can hear this sound, can you not? Achcha."

Lots of love and remembrances to all. - B.K. Prakashmani
