Two more steps of father Brahma: Obedient in following all orders and being faithful.

Today, BapDada is seeing all the loving and co­operative children, the powerful and equal children in all four directions. All children are loving, but they are powerful according to their capacity. The loving children receive multimillion times love and co­operation in return. The powerful and equal children receive the return of being constantly and easily victorious. Of course, everyone receives this. Because the loving children are only powerful according to their capacity, they are not constantly able to experience victory easily. Sometimes, it is easy and sometimes, it is difficult. BapDada gives the loving children the co­operation of making their hard work easy, because the loving children are also co­operative. So, in return of their co­operation, BapDada also gives co­operation. However, even when they receive co­operation, because their yoga is not accurate, they are not able to experience any attainment. Only through yoga can you experience co­operation, and because the powerful and equal children are constantly yogyukt, through experiencing co­operation, they are easily able to become victorious. However, Baba, of course, loves both types of children. All the children have love and the pure desire to be constantly victorious, but because of lacking power, they are not able to use all the powers at the time of need. Baba gives all the children, as a right of the inheritance, a right to all the powers. BapDada does not keep any difference in giving the rights. He makes everyone into those who have complete rights. Baba does not give everyone rights numberwise, but you become numberwise in receiving. Does BapDada give anything specially to anyone in particular? Does He give separate tuition to anyone? He does not. The study is the same for everyone, the sustenance received by everyone is the same. Is there any difference? Is it that the Pandavs receive different sustenance from the Shaktis? The study and sustenance received by everyone is the same. But there is so much difference in taking this and in its result. There is so much difference between the eight jewels and the sixteen thousand, one hundred and eight, is there not? Why is there a difference? In imbibing the study, the sustenance and the blessings and in using them practically: some children do imbibe all of these, but they do not know how to use them at the right time. They will be overflowing intellectually, but there is a difference in putting them into action.

Why did father Brahma become number one? You were told two of his steps earlier. The third step: He constantly obeyed the orders of the Father, the Teacher and the Satguru. He said "Yes, my Lord" to every order. You saw how he put the Father's orders, to be full in the inheritance of all treasures and to make others the same, into practice. He used all the treasures of knowledge, powers, virtues, the importance of the elevated time, and the treasure of elevated thoughts from the first day to the last day. Even on the last day, he used his time and thoughts for the children. Housed all the treasures of knowledge, of the power of remembrance and of being the embodiment of tolerance until the last day. You know this, do you not? He used all his treasures for this, did he not? This is known as being a number one child in following all the orders. He forgot about his body, but gave a demonstration by using it practically for service; because the special order from the Father is to be constantly equal to the Father in remembrance and service. So from the beginning until the last moment, you saw both orders being followed practically. To follow the father is the sign of love. So check that you have used all the treasures from the beginning until now for the self and for service. The Father's order is that you must not waste even one breath, one thought or one second. So, did you follow this order practically throughout the day? Or, did you sometimes put it into practice and sometimes not? If you are obedient sometimes and not at other times, then in which list would you come? If BapDada were to make a list of those who are obedient, in which list would you be? Do you know this?

You know yourselves, do you not? You are the trustees, the masters of all the treasures. So without instructions from the Father, you cannot use even one thought for anything else. Or, are you a child and a master, and so you use it however you want? It should not be like this. Do you think: "It does not matter whether I am a child or a master and so I can do whatever I want? What does it matter to the Father? The Father has given it, and so why does He want an account of it now?" However, you tell the Father every day: "Everything is Yours, it is not mine." Do you say this? Or, is it "Yours" at some times and "mine" at other times? When it suits you, it's yours and when it suits the Father, it's His? You do not become clever in this way, do you? You saw father Brahma: he used his rest time for churning and kept it for the children. He even stayed awake at night and gave the power of yoga to the children. Have you heard about these activities? You have heard the story of Brahma, have you not? Do you follow the father or just listen to it? To hear it means to do it.

The third step: Constantly say, "Yes my Lord", and the Lord is ever present. Did Father Shiva ever become separated from father Brahma? He remained ever present, did He not? The child said "Baba", and the Father said "sweet child", and so He remained ever present, did He not? So in his internal stage, he constantly experienced the Father to be ever present. He always said "Yes my Lord" for service. Whether it was day or night, as soon as he received the order for service, he put it into practice. And, in performing actions also, he always said, "Ha ji". He taught you the lesson of "Ha ji", did he not? So what are you following? You do not sometimes say "Ha ji" and sometimes "na ji", do you? So, show the proof of love. Do not think that no one else has as much love as you have for Baba. "Look in my heart; what can I show You? What can I tell You?" Children sing such songs. But now show the proof. The proof is to follow the father. So check in your stage, in service and in karma, that is, in connections and relations (to come into connection and relationship is also karma) as to whether you are following the father in all three. Do all the orders remain in your intellect just intellectually or are they also put into action? The result seen is that there are many things in the intellect, that you speak of many things, but there is a question mark in putting them into action. If you have 100% in your intellect and words, and you only have 50% in your actions, in which list would you come? Would you be in the list of those following the father? Should those who only attain half the result be put in the list of those who follow the father? What do you think? If BapDada were to make a list, who would He place in this list? Should He place those who only have half the percentage? Are those who only have half marks obedient? You do not think, "If not full, then even half is good", do you? Are you happy with just half marks? Do you like a little difference? Would you come in this list? Look, in the beginning, you also used to make a rosary. Do you remember that? You also used to make a list of those who would be in the golden age and who would be in the silver age. Should we make a list again? Or will you become copper aged by seeing your name in the list of the silver age? Baba is of course giving you a warning of the time, but the elements are also giving you a warning. The elements are also challenging you so that, according to the time, you give a warning to others. You tell everyone in your lectures that the time has come, the time has now come. Do you tell this to yourself also, or do you only tell others this? It is easy to tell others, is it not? So now bring this challenge into your awareness for yourself. So, what is the speed of your efforts according to the time? BapDada is internally amused about one thing: about what? Do you know this? The majority of you children do this sometimes. On the one hand, you think that according to the time, you should be intense in your effort, but you think this for one second and in the next second, Maya influences you. Therefore, you think that all of this will continue all the time anyway, that this has continued from the beginning of time with the maharathis also, and so what can BapDada do? He would not get angry, would He? So what would He do? He would only smile. And the main reason for this is that, from time to time, effort has been made very easy. It has been made easy.

You do not become easy in your nature, the nature is tight, but you remain easy in efforts. So what do you think? It is easy yoga, is it not? Yoga is easy, but to remain easy (loose) in your life and in your efforts is not called easy yoga. What happens when you remain loose? The powers become merged; they do not remain in an emerged form. All of you should remember the beginning of your Brahmin life. All of you remember this, do you not? You have not forgotten, have you? Do you remember what your effort was like then? Were you loose in your effort or were you able to pay attention to making effort? It was with attention and with zeal and enthusiasm. And what is it now? You have now received the Dunlop pillows and bedding of carelessness. You have received very good pillows and bedding. The resources have made you into those who like to rest a great deal. So check yourself against your efforts, your service and your zeal and enthusiasm of the beginning. Do you remember? What were they like? Were you those who loved rest and comfort? (No.) But you are this a little now. The resources are for service; they are not for making you into those who love rest and comfort. So now let go of the Dunlop pillows and bedding. Become the kings and queens of the floor. Even if you sleep on a bed, your stage should be that of a king of the floor. BapDada is not asking you to get rid of the beds and just have the floor. You do that in Madhuban. Look, in the beginning, they did not have the facilities, but their spiritual endeavor was so elevated. It was the spiritual endeavor of the beginning that brought about this expansion. So do not hide the seed of spiritual endeavor amidst the expansion. When expansion takes place, the seed is hidden, and so the spiritual endeavor is the seed and the facilities are the expansion. So do not let the seed of spiritual endeavor be hidden. Now, reveal the seed once again.

BapDada gave you a task to carry out this season, but you have not done it. Do you remember what task you were given? Or is it in your notebooks? You were given the task of developing an attitude of unlimited disinterest; discussing this with yourself and also with others, and revealing the seed of spiritual endeavor practically. So did you do this? Or, did you just have a debate, and after one day you thought that that was enough? You just had a workshop. It was not put to use, but it was a workshop. So, according to the present time, now create an attitude of unlimited disinterest for your service and the timetable of your centre. At present, it has become a timetable of great comfort. What do you teachers think? Has the timetable been mixed with rest and comfort? This carelessness makes you give excuses even in the little illnesses of the body. Even before, when you used to have an illness, the enthusiasm for service made the illness become merged. When you are doing service that you love, do you remember your illness at that time? If the "sister­in­charge" tells you that your health is not OK and that you should let someone else do it, would you allow that? At that time, where does your flu and fever go? And what happens when you have to do service that you don't like? You will have a stomach­ache or a headache. If you had fever, your teacher would tell you to use the thermometer, but for a headache or a stomach­ache, there is no thermometer. It would be your mood that is not right and yet you would say that you had a stomach­ache. These are excuses of carelessness. The attitude of unlimited disinterest has become merged and giving excuses has emerged.

So, BapDada was seeing that all the children reached Madhuban with a lot of love for the 18th of January and also for this second turn. So, you have shown your love, and so congratulations for that. (Everyone clapped.) You have applauded this, which is very good. BapDada is also happy to see the happiness of the children. But what do you have to do for the future? To show the proof of love, do you simply have to reach Madhuban or do you have to reach the subtle region? What do you have to do? Congratulations for having reached Madhuban, but when will you become an angel and reach the subtle region? Whilst you are walking and moving around, everyone should only see you as angels. Your words, activity, your way of living should all become like those of angels. To be an angel means to be double-light.

So, do not become light (loose) in your timetable, but be light in your connections, relations and in your stage. So, do you know how to become light or does a burden pull you? So BapDada wants to see the proof of love. And when you give the proof of love, you will not need to clap, but Maya and the elements will all clap. Maya will also clap: Wah! Victorious soul, wah! The elements will also clap. So now bring about some transformation.

Today is the last mela of this season. The season of the foreigners is separate, but according to the Indian programme, this is the last turn. The question of the mela is something different; that is being kept as a bonus. However, BapDada saw that throughout the season, you had a very good meeting, entertainment and celebrations of happiness, but what is the proof of that? So whilst living at the centers or in a household, change your timetable. And how should you change it? Simply by following the father. What did Brahma Baba do? Did father Brahma become careless? You saw the proof of this, did you not? Until the last day, did he take any rest? So, you have love, do you not? How much love do you have? Is it too much? Achcha. And how much proof have you given? You did not say too much for this. Now, together with having love, make yourself powerful. Now be the form of power in terms of transformation of the self. Do not be careless in thinking that you are an easy yogi. BapDada sees that, in all four directions, a lot of carelessness has developed, whether for the self, for service or for connections and relations. Do not think that it will do. You now have to fly. Do not copy one another, copy the father. You have developed the habit of looking at others a lot more. You have developed carelessness in looking at your own self. BapDada had told you that your short­sightedness has become powerful and your long-sightedness has become weak. So what will you do now? What will you give as the fruit of the season? Or is the fruit simply coming, meeting, celebrating a meeting and listening to the murli? What will you give as the fruit? There is fruit for every season. So what will you offer to BapDada as bhog for the fruit of the season? When you offer bhog, you also have fruit, do you not? You can get that fruit in the market; that is not a big thing. What will you offer to Baba in bhog or give as a gift as the fruit of this season? Are you going to offer it or do you find it difficult? What do the Pandavs think? Will you offer bhog? Will you offer good bhog? You will not offer bhog just in namesake, will you? Those from Madhuban and all those sitting down below; Madhuban will offer the best bhog of all, will it not? Whether it is the hospital, Talheti, Gyan Sarovar, it is still Madhuban. Where is the best bhog prepared? We shall see where the number one bhog comes from. What happens is that you make very good promises before you go; you never say no, you always say yes. At that time, you please Baba. So what will the teachers do? You will offer the number one bhog, will you not? We shall see the bhog from all the centers. Those of you living in a household also offer bhog, do you not? Or, do you eat it by yourself? You do offer bhog, do you not? Do not think that this is the duty of those living at the centers. It is everyone's duty. So thirdly, you have to put into practice the step of being obedient and following every order.

And, the other step is to be faithful. Do not be unfaithful to the Father in your mind, in your intellect or even in your thoughts. To be faithful means to constantly belong to the one Father and none other. Neither your body, bodily relations, material comforts of the body nor any bodily beings should attract you even in your thoughts. For a husband and wife to be faithful to one another, they do not remember anyone else even in their dreams; otherwise they are not said to be faithful. So you saw father Brahma: he never even thought of anyone else, he never looked at anyone else. The one Father is everything. This is known as being faithful. If there is an attraction to even physical things, if there is an attraction to the facilities, then your spiritual endeavor is broken, you are no longer faithful. And that which is damaged cannot become complete and worship worthy. So check that no type of attraction is making you unfaithful even in your thoughts.

If there is the slightest pull towards anyone, if there is even a little personal pull, whether towards someone's virtues, service or good sanskars, if you are impressed by this, then you would not be said to be faithful. If you are attracted to everyone's specialties, to the unlimited specialties, that is a different matter, but if you are specially attracted towards a special person or material comfort, then you would not be counted in the list of those who are faithful. Check that you are not a damaged idol. Are you worship worthy? You do not have any extra attachment or pull, do you? There should not be the slightest pull even in your thoughts, let alone through your words and actions. If there is even the slightest pull even in your thoughts, you would come in the list of those who are deformed. Do you know how to check? Achcha, now we shall see, because you have said that you know how to do this. The teachers are clever.

Now show some newness. The new year has begun. BapDada constantly remembers the unlimited disinterest at the beginning. All of you are the fruit of that time. If they had not had an attitude of unlimited disinterest, there could not have been this much expansion of the establishment. Till the end, father Brahma revealed the practical stage of unlimited disinterest. Even whilst in his old age and settling the accounts of the body, he did not accept the facilities. To use them for service is a different matter, but he never used any of the resources personally for himself. You can understand the difference, can you not? To accept something for the self and to use it for service: you know the difference between the two, do you not? For the self, you should have unlimited disinterest and use the resources for service. But the facilities should not bring carelessness. So you have to follow the father in this, do you not? Or, do those who are still to come have to follow the father? Who has to follow him? All of you have to follow him, do you not? Achcha, what are the children always called? The lamp of the clan. So, you are the lights of the Brahmin family, are you not? All of you are the lights, are you not? You are the lights who are constantly glowing, are you not? You are the lights of the family who ignite the light of BapDada's elevated hopes. Are you like this?

Achcha, the teachers have been made to sit at the front. You have been given a chance. So you also have to take a chance in what you have just been told. Do not become happy in simply getting a chance to sit at the front. You have to take the number one chance in this also. Now create such a timetable amongst yourselves that everything is transformed. Do not make do with whatever comes and doing anything that comes. No. Tighten your daily timetable. You like this, do you not? Or, will you become the difficult yogis instead of the easy yogis?

Achcha, call it special service or a blessing, today, BapDada is giving this to all zones; to constantly be number one in following the father. BapDada will then see which centers in which zones are number one in following the father. Do not think that you were number one, but that others were not and so you will not receive the prize. Now, the zones will be given a very beautiful prize, but even within the zone, the number one centre will receive the prize. It is not that the number one centre would be one centre and that the prize would be given to a zone. Baba will not do this. The results have to be shown at the centers. The students that come are also included as part of the centre. The companions at the centre and the students that come there should both be number one. Is this possible? Or do you think that you will be numberwise? Can you become number one? Achcha, in how much time will you claim the prize? How much time do you need? (Till the 18th January, 1996). One year. What if many go away by then? Yes, teachers speak: how much time do you need? Speak, all the teachers are sitting in the front. How much time do you need? You have become quiet. Are you finding it difficult? Yes or no? It is not difficult, it is easy, and so speak. How much time do you want? You will be given as much time as you want. If you say two years, you will be given two years. Speak, do you want two years? Do you want one year?

How much time do you want? Do you want 3 months or 6 months? Achcha, at least let it be 6 months, because the next season will be after 6 months. So in the first turn, BapDada will give very good accommodation to those who show the result. Kunj Bhavan is good, is it not? Two people can sleep in one room.

Those from Madhuban are the Arjunas who take the responsibility anyway. The vibrations of Madhuban spread everywhere. Those from Madhuban are constantly ready and say, "Yes, my Lord". You are those who say Ha ji. Or, do you also like saying na ji every now and then? You will be given a very good prize. You should be experienced as a soul who has completely unlimited disinterest. Do not become one who is too clever superficially. Others should give the certificate that yes, this one is number one. There are three certificates. You know them, do you not? One is to be liked by the self, second is to be liked by the Father and the third is to be liked by everyone. Those who claim all three certificates will be given the opportunity to stay longer. They will also have extra Brahma bhojan. The first to be announced will be those who are victorious. They will be so beautiful. A rosary of the jewels of victory will be created. All of you can claim a number. It is not just the teachers. The teachers will give a number to those living in a household and so they can also claim a number. Or, do you think that your teacher will not give you this? If there is something like this, then you can have it verified by the Dadis. What do all the zones think? Teachers of the zones, raise your hands. What do you think? Will you become number one? Achcha. Indore will become number one. Who else will become this? Punjab. Bhopal will also be number one, 100 per cent. And Indore will bring 10 to 20 per cent more than a 100 per cent. And Punjab will be 1000 per cent. Punjab has to bring a rosary of four hundred thousand. Are you definite about this? Those from Punjab have not forgotten this, have they? Those from Punjab, raise your hands. Achcha. Out of four hundred thousand, by next season, at least bring one hundred thousand. What will those from Punjab do?

What has happened now is that because the seed of Gyan Sarovar is sown in Punjab, there is double the responsibility. Teachers of Punjab, raise your hands. Raise your hands high; do you not know how to do drill? Raise your hands fully. So, the teachers of Punjab will do this, will they not? At least say, Ha ji. Will you do it? Achcha. Those from Delhi, raise your hand. Teachers and students of Delhi, raise your hands. So what number will Delhi claim? Number one. Will all of you claim number one? Those from Delhi should say, A1. Delhi should become the instrument, should it not? Achcha, those from Indore, raise your hands. It is good that you are number one in service and also number one in giving the fruit. Achcha, last time all the zones were given a duty; do you remember what you have to do? Do not bring small mikes, but bring important mikes into the gathering. What does Indore have to do? You have to bring a group of businessmen. Bhopal has to bring a group of them. If you bring two to four, it does not matter.

Punjab: What does Punjab have to do? What duty were you given? Has Punjab forgotten the duty they were given? Tell Baba what duty you were given. What quality of souls do you have to bring here? Not the heirs? Do you simply have to bring four hundred thousand? Is that all? Punjab should bring such a gathering that their name is spread throughout the whole world. Through what will your name be glorified? When the greatest terrorists become introverted, the Government will give the Brahma Kumaris a prize. To bring five ministers is not a big thing. But bring those famous terrorists who are very well known and for whom there is a reward offered. Perform such wonders. Ministers come all the time. What are those from Punjab thinking? Can you do this? Or, are you afraid of the terrorists? Pandavs of Punjab, raise your hands. We shall see who it is each centre brings. Demonstrate something new now. Even when only one dacoit came, there was so much service done. But, not just like that; make the dacoit into a Brahmin. After having come here, if they go and do something violent, the name of the Brahma Kumaris would be spoilt.

Therefore, bring them after they have been transformed. Achcha.

Eastern Zone: What will the Eastern Zone do? Will you claim number one? You are not saying yes; perhaps you are still thinking? Will you claim number one? Those from the Eastern zone did not say yes with such great enthusiasm. You are perhaps still thinking about it a little. What will you do? Those from Nepal, speak. Will you definitely claim number one? Will the entire Eastern Zone claim it or just Nepal? Will Bihar claim number one? Where are those from Bihar? Raise your hands. What will those from Bihar do? Will you claim a number? Say yes or no. You have to claim a number. At least say, Ha ji. You are simply shrugging your shoulders, but not saying yes. Will you claim it? Achcha, all those who have come, raise your hands. Bengal, raise your hands! The Eastern Zone all together, raise your hands. So what number will you claim? First or second? You will claim the first number. Achcha.

Maharashtra, Bombay: What will Maharashtra do? Will you claim a hundred thousand per cent or a hundred percent? What will you do? Will you claim a prize of a hundred thousand per cent? However much you do, you are only making your own present and future elevated. Achcha.

Gujarat: Achcha, what will Gujarat do? Gujarat will go ahead of everyone, will it not?

Karnataka: Those from Karnataka, raise your hands. There are a good number of those from Karnataka; you have a large number. There are very few from Gujarat this time. Why? Achcha, so what will those from Karnataka do? Teachers of Karnataka, raise your hands. All of you are sitting together. Achcha, those from Karnataka are very clever; all of you are sitting at the front. You have a very good interest and desire to take drishti. So what will Karnataka do? Perform a wonder. Do not create any chaos. When the numbers become large, a little chaos also begins. So constantly perform wonders. Achcha.

Andhra Pradesh: Those from Andhra, raise your hands. Andhra wishes to claim a separate blessing from that of Maharashtra; you are clever. Teachers of Andhra, raise your hands. So what will Andhra do? Andhra (blind one) will remove the darkness of the world within one second. When you first remove yours, you will then be able to remove it for the world. It is good that those from Andhra have good zeal and enthusiasm. So constantly continue to move forward with zeal and enthusiasm.

Tamil Nadu, Kerala: Those from Tamil and Kerala, raise your hands. What will Tamil do? What specialty will those from Tamil reveal? Tamil should finish the tamoguni quality. Everyone should become satopradhan. You are going to do this, are you not? Tamil and Kerala are small, but they will perform wonders.

Rajasthan: Those from Rajasthan, raise your hands. What wonder will Rajasthan perform? In your results also, become the greatest kings. Do you understand? To be a king means to claim a number ahead. Rajasthan is the place of the kingdom. So, in your result also, claim the prize of a king. Is this OK? Achcha.

U.P. and Benares: What wonders will those from U.P. perform? Those from U.P., speak. What wonders will you perform? You will merge all the pilgrimage places of the path of bhakti into the Abu pilgrimage. You will perform wonders, will you not? When people go on a pilgrimage, where should they go? They should come to the Abu pilgrimage; they should come to the greatest pilgrimage place. So all the pilgrimages should merge into the one greatest pilgrimage. So will you perform wonders?

Agra: Those from Agra, raise your hands. (50). Little ones perform wonders. Baba always says: The great important ones are great, but the small ones are equal to Allah.

So those from Agra should definitely reveal some wonders. You are small but demonstrate great wonders.

Double foreigners: What will the double foreigners do? You will carry out double the work that India is doing. Will you perform double wonders? Those who have come from Hong Kong and Lagos should tell Baba. Will you do this? Achcha, so what wonder will the double foreigners perform? So that everyone is attracted and comes to Bharat to meet the Father? Create such a deep desire in them that everyone is attracted to come to Bharat. First, you will bring the mikes, will you not? The mikes from the foreign lands will also make their sound heard. This is why the mikes from the foreign lands have awakened and will continue to awaken many others with their loud sound. The Brahma Kumaris received the Peace Prize in the foreign lands also, did it not? So you showed the proof of service, and the foreign lands especially fulfilled one desire of Baba's, which was that many souls will receive Baba's message in the heart of London (Tomorrow, the 27th, is the inauguration of the Regent Street Museum ­ Brahma Kumaris Information Centre). Today, all Brahmins are becoming instruments for special service. You have not done anything like this in a main place in Bharat as yet. You have opened up museums in the alleys, but the foreign land shave claimed number one by getting a museum in the main part of London. So number one congratulations to those who have claimed number one. Achcha, what will all of you do? You have not forgotten, have you? You will all claim a prize, will you not? Or will just the teachers claim the prize? You should also take it. Achcha.

To those in all four directions who give the proof of love; to those who put every instruction into their thoughts, words and actions; to those who make themselves simple and a sample like the father; to those who place their every step in the footsteps of father Brahma; to all such powerful children who have the determined thought to become like the father, BapDada's love, remembrances and namaste.

BapDada meeting Dadis: Because you are carefree emperors, everything happens very easily. Those who themselves stay in the surrendered stage automatically receive everyone's co­operation. Co­operation also surrenders itself to them. Those who have surrendered from their heart also receive co­ operation from everyone's heart. Where there is the love of the heart, co­operation is received. If there is no love, there is no co­operation. So all of you have given your co­operation from your heart, have you not? What does each one think? Is it your work or the work of the Dadis? Is it your Madhuban or the Madhuban of those who live in Madhuban? So Baba also says: You first. Achcha, is everything OK? Do not think that just the Dadis go ahead. All of you are merged in the Dadis. Do you feel distant or close? You are close, are you not? Even if you are sitting at the back in the last chair, you too are close. Where do all of you constantly stay? You stay in the heart, do you not? Or do you live in the foreign lands? Do you live in Punjab, in Bombay, in Nairobi? Where do you live? All of you are in the heart; so is the heart far away or is it close? When you become distant, Baba has to search for you and bring you back. When a child goes out of the front door, what would the father do? He would go to bring the child back, would he not? Or would he leave the child alone? He would go to bring him back. So Baba also sees when someone goes out of the door of the heart. When you become busy in other work, you come out of the door of the heart. Then Baba either has to call you back or catch hold of you and bring you back.

Has everyone received good facilities for living or are there any complaints? Some of you are in hotels. Generally, you do not go to a hotel in your Brahma Kumari life otherwise. Just have an experience of the hotel and see what happens there. However, all those who have gone to hotels (450 living in hotels): what service have you done of those in the hotels? Did you not make those in the hotels belong to you, that the hotels also become like Gyan Sarovar? Did you not make it your hotel?

Ultimately, all of them are going to belong to you. Wherever you place your hand, that becomes yours. (Speaking to Ramslokh, in charge of accommodation) Did you tell anyone off? No. (Many were crying when told to go to hotels.) You made them cry, did you not? Do something so that they all go willingly with a smiling face. Tell them something so that they laugh. It is a wonder to make those who cry laugh.

Achcha, are all of you happy? How happy are you? Very happy. Those at the back are very happy. The Shaktis are very happy. Achcha, you do not have any complaints, do you? Or, when you get back home, will you say, "This happened a little"? You yourselves can imagine that within a large gathering, there will be some things that happen. Even then, it is a thousand times better than the kumbha mela. At least you get very good Brahma bhojan. There hasn't been any difficulty with the food, has there? You simply did not get breakfast. It is good; you do not have any other types of fast. It is good to hold a fast for one meal. The doctors will become happy that the Brahma Kumaris have reduced one meal. You did not have any difficulty, did you? There was no one hungry, was there? Achcha.
