Be the ones who have true love and experience all relationships with the one Father in a corporeal form.

Today, BapDada, the One loved by the whole world, is seeing His extremely loving companions and the children who are constantly co­operative. All Brahmin souls everywhere definitely have love for the Father. Love has brought about transformation in Brahmin life. Even so, there are three types of loving children. One is those who have love, the second is those who fulfill the responsibility of love and the third are those who are merged in love. To be merged in love means to become equal. Those who have love have love sometimes, but, while having love, sometimes their love is broken and sometimes their love is connected. This is why, from time to time, they repeatedly have to make effort to connect their love again. Why? Because, together with love for the Father, they also have love for some people or for some instruments of matter. If there is the slightest trace of love in any other direction, even in their thoughts, then they come in the list of those who just have love for the Father. The sign of love is that, without any effort, their love automatically goes to the One they have love for. Those who have love constantly experience the One they have love for to be their support in every situation and in every stage at every moment. If you have love for the facilities, then, at that time, you experience the facilities to be a greater support than even the Father. At that time, the soul retains the love for the Father in his thoughts and even thinks that the love the Father has is elevated, but thinks that it is necessary to have the support of facilities or of other people. This is why their love is incomplete in both directions, and they have to connect their love again and again. Instead of having one strength and one support, they also find it essential to have the support of something else. Therefore, instead of experiencing all attainments through love for the Father, they are attracted by the temporary attainment of other supports. They attract them to such an extent that they are considered to be very essential. They do not consider them to be an attachment, but a support. Such ones are known as those who just have love.

The second are those who fulfill the responsibility of love. Those who fulfill  the responsibility of love, as well as having love, also have the power to fulfill the responsibility of love. To fulfill the responsibility of love means to give a response of that love, to give a return. The return of love is to fulfill  the elevated hopes that the Father has in the children in a practical way. Those who fulfill  the responsibility of love generally demonstrate their love by doing everything in a practical way. However, they sometimes have the experience of being equal to the Father, that is, of being merged in love, and sometimes they don't. Those who fulfill  the responsibility of love are still close, but they are not equal. Those who fulfill  this responsibility of love receive in return multimillionfold courage, zeal and enthusiasm and special help from the Father. Thirdly, those who are merged in love constantly experience the company of the Father whom they love, in their eyes, on their lips, in their thoughts and in their actions easily and naturally. The Father is not separated from them and they are not separated from the Father. At every moment, as a return for their love for the Father, they remain full and content with all the attainments received from the Father. This is why no other type of support attracts them. The need for any temporary attainment would definitely make them make someone else their support, that is, it creates a difference in their having complete love. Because of being constantly full of all attainments, a soul who is merged in love easily has the experience of belonging to the one Father and none other. All have love for the Father, but there are these three types of children. Now, ask yourself: Which one am I? You do know yourself, do you not? You do have love and it is out of love that you are following the Brahmin life. However, as well as having love, you become numberwise in having the power to fulfill  the responsibility of that love. As well as having love, power is also essential. Those who have the balance of both love and power become similar to the Father. Such souls who are merged in love experience it to be difficult to move away from the love of the Father. It is easy to be merged in love, but difficult to move away from that love, because for souls who are merged in love, the Father is their whole world.

In the whole world, there are only two things that attract. One is the relationships with people and the other is the attainment through the various facilities and possessions. Souls who are merged in love constantly experience the sweetness of all relationships with the one Father. For them, the basis of all attainments is not the things or the facilities, but it is the one Father. The things and the facilities are the creation, whereas the Father is the Creator. Those who have the Creator as their support cannot have the slightest thought, even in their dreams, of having even a temporary attainment from the creation. BapDada is sometimes amused when He sees the stage of the children. One cannot be surprised. There has to be a full­stop. While moving along, they let go of the Seed and become attracted to the twigs and branches. Some make other souls their support, whereas others make the facilities their support, because the form and colour of the Seed are not as beautiful as the form and colour of the twigs and branches which are very beautiful. In body consciousness you easily experience the support of relationships with bodily beings but, when you go beyond body consciousness you experience the support of the Father. You have the habit of becoming body conscious anyway. You become body conscious even against your conscious wish. This is why you easily experience the support of a relationship with bodily beings. Therefore, even when you understand that it is not right, you still make them your support. BapDada smiles when He sees this. The stage at that time makes one laugh. It is just as when you relate the story of a parrot in your classes or the lectures you give. It told someone not to sit on the tap, but the parrot itself was sitting on the tap as it said this. In the same way, the children also think in their own minds that they belong to the one Father and none other. They even repeat this to themselves again and again, but, together with this, they also think that they need a support in a physical way. So you have to laugh at that time. And, at that time, Maya seizes this chance. She transforms your intellect to such an extent that you experience a false support to be the real support. Nowadays, false things are even better than real things. In the same way, at that time, you experience the wrong to be right. In order to prove wrong things or a false support to be right, to prove the false to be true, it is just as a pillar is put up to strengthen a weak spot. So, too, in order to make your weak thoughts powerful, Maya also puts up a very royal pillar. Do you know which pillar she puts up? All of you know this. Maya brings this thought: "This happens all the time; even many seniors do this and they move along in this way." Or, they think: "We are still effort­makers; we have not yet become complete, and so there will be one weakness or another. As we progress further, we will become complete". In this way, the pillar of weak thoughts strengthens the weaknesses. So, do not take the support of a pillar in this way. At some time, the artificial pillar will deceive you. The Father always has to be the support of all relationships: you have this experience to a lesser extent. Now, increase the experience of all relationships. Because of having the experience of all relationships to a lesser extent, a temporary relationship is forged with someone or other. Now, increase the experience of the Father being the physical support, and being the support of things that give you co­operation in a practical way in every situation, even in your physical life. Do not think that the Father will give you support in a subtle way anyway. He is incorporeal and subtle; He is not physical, but you can experience every relationship in a corporeal form. You can experience His company in the physical form. So understand this experience in depth and make yourself strong in this. Then people, things and facilities will not attract you to themselves. Now, increase the experience of using the facilities just for name's sake and of using them for service as detached observers. Do not make them your support, but use them for name’s sake. This is known as a soul who is merged in love and is equal. So think about it: Who am I? Do you understand? Achcha.

To the souls who are similar to the Father and constantly merged in love, to the souls who constantly experience all relationships with the one Father, to the souls who constantly experience the one Father to be the Image of Support, and the true support, to the souls who constantly experience all attainments from the one Father, to the truly loving souls who easily and naturally experience "One Strength and One Support", love, remembrance and namaste from BapDada.

To the Dadis: You are constantly merged in love, are you not? Or, do you have to make effort to stay in remembrance? You are not able to see anyone except the one Father. When you hear their stories, you have to laugh. While the story is going on, they are not able to understand what is happening to them, but when the story is over, they think, "What happened?" They even think, "Was it me or someone else?" because at that time, they are under another influence. Those who are under another influence are not aware of their own selves. When they become aware of their own selves, they then have the force to move forward. The gathering is growing and it will continue to grow, and you instrument souls are happy seeing all of these games. All of you are moving along: some are moving along, some are flying and what are you doing? While flying, you make others fly with you. You have become the merciful children of the merciful Father. So you feel mercy. You do not feel hatred; you have mercy, and this mercy acts as love from the heart. Achcha. Whatever is happening is the best of all. You are serving tirelessly. Seeing the tirelessness of the instrument souls, everyone also has enthusiasm. Achcha.

Personal meeting with Avyakt BapDada: Finish being ordinary and create natural sanskars of speciality being your nature.
Do you always experience yourselves to be in the spiritual pleasure of the confluence age? Do you always stay in pleasure? Or, are you sometimes in pleasure (mauj) and sometimes in confusion (munj)? Or do you stay in constant pleasure? What is your state? When any such situation or examination comes, are you confused? (For a short time.) So what would happen if death were to come in that short time? This is the time of untimely death, is it not? If, instead of being in pleasure, you are in a state of confusion for even a short time, and if that moment becomes your final moment, then what would be the final thoughts that lead you to your destination? This is why you keep on hearing: Constantly ever­ready. What is the meaning of ever­ready? Are you ever­ready at every moment? No problem should be an obstacle to your becoming perfect. If the end is good, then the beginning of the future will also be good. As is your state of mind, so will be the condition. This is why you are taught the lesson of ever­ready. Do not think that it is just for a short time, because you can be deceived by even a short time, by even one second. You generally think that it doesn’t last for a long time, it just lasts for two to four minutes, but even one second can be deceptive, so don’t even think about a minute because you are the most valuable souls; you are invaluable. Invaluable souls cannot be compared to souls of the world. People of the world consider all of you to be ordinary, but you are not ordinary, you are special souls.
A special soul means that whatever actions you perform, whatever thoughts you have and whatever words you use, every word and every thought would be special, not ordinary. So, check that you don’t become ordinary while doing something special. Some think that they haven’t made any mistakes, that they haven’t committed any sin, that they haven’t used any such wrong words, but did you make your future and present elevated? You didn’t do anything bad, but, did you do anything good? Do not just check that you didn’t do anything bad, but in place of not doing anything bad, did you do the best of all or was it just something ordinary? Let there not be such ordinariness; let there be something elevated. There wasn’t any loss, but was there any accumulation? Because the time to accumulate is now. If you accumulate less, you will have less to eat from, that is, your reward will be less. Your aim is to attain the elevated reward. Or does it not matter if it becomes ordinary? “I will go to heaven anyway. I will not have any sorrow. So what does it matter if I become ordinary? Does it matter or will it do?” So check that every second and every thought is special. The practice of body consciousness continues for half the cycle, naturally, against your conscious wish, does it not? It has become natural to become body conscious, has it not? In the same way, the soul­conscious stage should become natural and part of your nature. Nature automatically does its work; you don’t have to think about it, you don’t have to create that, you don’t have to do anything, because it happens automatically. So, such sanskars of speciality should become your nature and that should emerge from each one’s heart. Do not say, “My nature is such, my nature is such.” No. It should emerge from each one’s mouth and mind, “My nature is the speciality of a special soul.” So, is it like that or do you have to make effort? You don’t have to make effort for something that is your nature. If the nature of some is of being entertaining, they automatically continue to entertain. They don’t even realise what they have done. Even if someone tells them something, they would say, “What can I do? That is my nature.” So, your nature should also become one of speciality. If someone asks you what your nature is, it should emerge from your heart that your nature is of speciality. That of ordinary action has now finished because you have now died alive. So, you have died from being ordinary and you are living with speciality, that is, you now have a new birth. So, being ordinary was the nature of your past birth, not of the present, because you have now taken a new birth. So experience speciality to be the nature of your new birth. So, what will you do now? Finish being ordinary. Let there not be anything ordinary even in your thoughts. Achcha.
