17-03-2003 Om Shanti Avyakt Bapdada Madhuban
This year, stay in your self-respect, give regard and co-operate with everyone
and make them powerful.Today, BapDada, the Bestower of Fortune, is seeing the three lines of fortune on the forehead of each of His children everywhere. One is the line of fortune of Godly sustenance. The second is the line of the fortune of the elevated teachings of the true Teacher. The third is the sparkling line of shrimat. All three lines are sparkling very well in the centre of the forehead of all the children everywhere. All of you are also seeing your lines of all three types of fortune, are you not? Since the Bestower of Fortune is the Father of you children, then, apart from you, could anyone else have such elevated fortune? BapDada is seeing that there are many millions of souls in the world, but out of those millions, this is a family of 600,000. There are so few of you. So you are a handful out of multimillions, are you not? Generally, all these three things - sustenance, study and elevated directions - are essential for every human being in their life. However, there is the difference of day and night between this Godly sustenance and the directions, sustenance and study received from deity souls and human souls. So, your fortune is so elevated; you never even imagined it. However, now, the heart of each one of you sings: I have attained. Have you attained, or do you still have to attain it? What would you say? You have attained, have you not? The Father too is pleased to see the fortune of such children. Children say: Wah, Baba, wah! (It is the wonder of Baba!) And the Father says: Wah, children, wah! (It is the wonder of you children!) Don't just keep this fortune in your awareness, but always remain an embodiment of that awareness. Some children think very good things, but you mustn't become an embodiment of thoughts (sochna swaroop). Become an embodiment of remembrance (smruti swaroop). An embodiment of remembrance is an embodiment of power (samarth swaroop). An embodiment of thoughts is not an embodiment of power.
BapDada continues to smile on seeing the different games of the children. Some children remain an embodiment of thoughts; they don't always remain an embodiment of remembrance.
Sometimes, they are an embodiment of thoughts and at other times they are an embodiment of remembrance. Those who remain embodiments of remembrance are constantly in their natural form. Those who remain an embodiment of thoughts have to make effort. This confluence age is not the age of making effort. It is the age for experiencing all attainments. You made effort for 63 births, but now it is the age, that is, the time, to attain the fruit of those efforts.
BapDada was seeing: Did you make any effort to have the awareness of body consciousness? "I am So-and-so. I am So-and-so." Did you make effort for that? That was natural, was it not?
Body consciousness became your nature, did it not? It became such a strong nature that, even now, at the time of becoming soul conscious, body consciousness pulls some children towards itself. You then think, "I am a soul. I am a soul." However, body consciousness has become so natural that, even against your conscious wish or when you don't think about it, you repeatedly become body conscious. BapDada says: Now, in your birth of dying alive, let your stage of soul consciousness, the awareness of the soul, also become your nature and be just as natural. You shouldn't have to make effort, "I am a soul, I am a soul." When a child is born and begins to understand, as he grows older he is given the introduction of who he is and whom he belongs to.
What introduction did you Brahmin children receive when you were born? Who are you? The lesson of the soul was made firm for you, was it not? So let this first introduction become your natural nature. A nature is natural and constant. You don't have to make effort to remember it. In the same way, according to the time now, the soul conscious stage of every Brahmin child should be natural. Some children do have this stage. They don't have to think about it, they are embodiments of remembrance. You now definitely have to become constantly and naturally an embodiment of remembrance. The last, final paper of all Brahmins is this small paper of becoming a conqueror of attachment and an embodiment of remembrance.
So, what will you do this year? Some children ask: What special aim should we have this year? BapDada says: May you always be soul conscious and an embodiment of remembrance. You are to attain liberation-in-life anyway, but before you become liberated-in-life, become free from having to labour. This stage will bring the time closer and liberate all your brothers and sisters of the world from sorrow and peacelessness. This stage of yours will open the gates to the land of liberation. So, do you not feel mercy for your brothers and sisters? Souls everywhere are crying out in distress, so your liberation will enable all to receive liberation. Therefore, check to what extent you have this natural awareness and thereby a powerful form. To become an embodiment of power means all waste will easily end. You will not repeatedly have to make that effort.
Now, this year, because of love for the children, BapDada doesn't want to see any of you children having to labour in any problem. Let the problem end and you become a powerful embodiment of solutions. Is this possible? Is this possible? Dadis, speak! Teachers, speak! Is this possible? Pandavas, is this possible? Don't make excuses afterwards: "Because of this, because this happened... If this didn't happen, then this wouldn't have happened." BapDada has already seen many games, very sweet games. No matter what happens, even if the form of the problem is 100 times bigger than the Himalayas, even if the problem comes through your body, mind, another person or the elements of nature, the problems that are external situations are nothing in front of your original stage, and the way to create your original stage is self-respect. Let there be self-respect in a natural way. You should not have to remember it; you should not repeatedly have to make that effort. "No, really, I am a spinner of the discus of self-realisation, I am the light of the eyes, I am seated on the heart-throne." I am that. Is anyone else going to be this?
Who became this in the previous cycle? Was it someone else who had became this or did you become this? It was you, it is you and you will become this every cycle. This is fixed. BapDada is seeing all the faces. You are all the same ones of the previous cycle. Are you of this cycle or of the many cycles before? You are the same ones of many cycles, are you not? Are you? Those who are the same ones of every cycle, raise your hands. Then it is fixed, is it not? You have received the pass certificate, have you not? Or, do you still have to claim it? You have received it, have you not? Have you received it or do you still have to claim it? You received it in the previous cycle, so will you not receive it now? Become an embodiment of this awareness. You have received the certificate. There will be a difference between passing with honours or simply passing, but you are the same ones. You are sure about this, are you not? Or, will you forget it when traveling on the train? Will it fly away when you go on the plane? No.
For instance, this year, you had determination to celebrate Shiv Ratri with a lot of zeal and enthusiasm everywhere, and so you celebrated it, did you not? Through your determination whatever you thought was accomplished, was it not? So what is this a wonder of? Unity and determination. You thought of doing 67 programmes, but BapDada saw that many children did more than that number of programmes. This is the sign of a powerful form. It is a practical proof of zeal and enthusiasm. You automatically did this everywhere, did you not? In the same way, all of you together give courage to one another and have the thought: We now definitely have to bring time close. We have to enable souls to receive liberation.
However, this will happen when you put your thoughts into practical form by becoming an embodiment of remembrance.
BapDada has heard that those from abroad are going to have a special sneh-milan or a meeting, and the people of Bharat also have a meeting, and so in the meeting, don't just make plans for service. Make plans, but let there be balance. Co-operate with one another in such a way that all of you become master almighty authorities and continue to fly ahead. Be a bestower and give co-operation. Don't look at the situations, but be co-operative. Stay in your self-respect and become co-operative by giving regard because when you give any soul regard from your heart, it is a very big act of charity. You gave zeal and enthusiasm to a weak soul and so that was such great charity. You mustn't knock down those who have already fallen, but embrace them - not externally; to embrace means to make them equal to the Father. Give them co-operation.
You have asked what you should do this year, have you not? Simply give regard and maintain your self-respect. Become powerful and make others powerful. Do not engage yourself in wasteful situations. Weak souls are weak anyway, and if you continue to look at their weaknesses, how would you become co-operative? Give co-operation and you will receive blessings. When you are unable to do anything else, the easiest effort of all is to give blessings and receive blessings. Give regard and become praiseworthy. Only those who give regard become worthy of receiving respect from everyone. To the extent that you become worthy of respect now, to that extent you will have a right to the kingdom and become a worthy-of- worship soul. Continue to give, don't think of receiving. To give when you receive is the work of a businessman. You are children of the Bestower. BapDada is pleased to see the service of the children everywhere. All of you have done very good service. However, you now have to move forward, do you not? All of you have done very good service through words. You have also achieved good results of serving through the facilities. You ended the complaints of many souls.
Together with that, seeing the fast speed of time, BapDada doesn't only want you to serve a few souls, for you are the instruments for bestowing liberation to all souls of the world because you are the Father's companions. So, according to the speed of time, you now have to do three types of service at the same time. One is your words, then your powerful stage and the third your elevated spiritual vibrations. Wherever you serve, spread such spiritual vibrations that everyone is easily attracted by the influence of the vibrations. Look how even in your last birth your non- living images are serving. Do they say anything through words? Their vibrations are such that the devotees easily receive the fruit of their devotion. In this way, let the vibrations be powerful.
Let the rays of all powers spread through the vibrations and change the atmosphere. Vibrations are such that they make an imprint on your heart. All of you have experienced how long the effect lasts when you have an impression of someone's good or bad vibrations in your heart. It lasts for a long time, does it not? It can't be removed even when you want to remove it. When someone's bad vibrations have set in your heart, are you able to remove them easily? So, your vibrations of the rays of all powers will work like an imprint. Words can be forgotten, but an imprint created by vibrations cannot be removed easily. You have experienced this, have you not? You do have this experience, do you not?
BapDada gives multi-multimillion-fold congratulations for the zeal and enthusiasm that Gujarat and Bombay showed. Why? What was your speciality? Why is Baba congratulating you? You continue to hold big functions, but why is Baba especially congratulating you? The speciality of both of these was of unity and determination. Where there is unity and determination, instead of one year, one year's work is achieved in one month. Did those from Gujarat and Bombay hear?
Gujarat: There are many from Gujarat. It is their turn for serving. There are 4,500 from Gujarat. Congratulations to everyone. First of all, congratulations to you. It isn't congratulations just to the teachers. If there weren't your co-operation, what would the teachers do? This is why all the children of Gujarat are being congratulated for the golden chance now and also for their service. In the same way, always continue to move forward in self-progress and service. When someone says one thing, the other one accepts it. In this way, constantly continue to move forward with unity and determination. Congratulations! Congratulations! Achcha.
Mumbai: Those from Bombay, stand up! (In Shivaji Park in Bombay, a gathering of about 75 to 80 thousand people took place.) Achcha, you have already received congratulations. BapDada is giving many, many blessings from His heart on behalf of the whole Brahmin family and Himself to both places - Gujarat and Bombay (Maharashtra, Bombay, Andhra Pradesh and others). These blessings from the heart will constantly continue to increase zeal and enthusiasm in your heart.
Are the Pandavas OK? All of you did very good service. The programme of hundreds of thousands was successful with everyone's co-operation. Achcha.
Business Industry Wing: BapDada is giving a special thought to the Business Wing because customers come to businessmen all the time to take something. They themselves don't have to go anywhere. So, whoever comes into contact and relationship with you, do you at least give them a message? Every businessman and industrialist can have his business card printed on which there could be a very good short slogan of knowledge. Let it have an address and an invitation in just a few words. Have all of you printed such cards? Those who have printed them, raise your hands. There are so many of you who have not printed these cards. Businessmen can do service while sitting at home. Then people won't be able to complain that they came to you as customers but were not given a message. Therefore, definitely have these cards printed. Print such beautiful cards that no one puts them in the waste paper box, but keeps them carefully.
Businessmen know very well how to make a bargain. A good businessman is one who doesn't send a customer away without making a deal. So, do you not enable them to make a deal with God? Do you just make them make a deal with clothes and things? Businessmen can make many souls co-operative, and from being co-operative they will gradually become yogi. So, each one of you has to make a list of co-operative souls this year. How many souls did each one of you businessmen give a message to? How many souls did you make co-operative? How many souls did you make into easy yogi souls? Is this OK? Will you do this? Yes! Dadi tells you to increase the number. Therefore, each and every businessman can increase the number. Is this OK? Now BapDada will also see the result. Don't think: What would BapDada know? BapDada sees everything. He can see everything while sitting in the subtle region. He won't even need to ask you anything. So, you businessmen will perform wonders, will you not? Achcha. It is said to those who do something good: May you have a rose in your mouth. (May what you say become practical.) So, BapDada says: Let there be a gulab jamun in the mouth of every businessmen. Do you have this in your mouth? Achcha. OK, sit down.
Sports Wing: Fun and games are also definitely needed. What games do you make them play? Do you just watch the games or even make them play the games? Everyone watches games.
Nowadays, everyone remains so engrossed in watching games. BapDada knows. Achcha, this is also very essential, because nowadays, souls have a lot of tension, and so there has to be some fun and games. BapDada has heard that a child abroad has invented a very good game for the children. Who made it? BapDada received this news and He liked it. Show it to everyone.
Seeing this one's invention, the fun and games department should also create an invention in which there can be games and also knowledge. Even when you give the course, let it be in the form of a game. It is a good invention. Congratulations. Therefore, now create an entertaining programme. Everyone has heard many lectures, but now invent something new so that people come even against their wish, and your brothers and sisters awaken. It is good that you continue to make plans and have meetings. BapDada likes this plan of the children. So this year, you also make something. BapDada remembers that in the melas of the early days, you used to have such things that people would automatically send others to go and see them. Therefore, now create such inventions. Is this OK? Shashiben is in charge of this department, and she is clever. She will do it. Achcha. Congratulations!
Education Wing: Importance is given to education and this is why the Government also takes an interest in education. And so all of you have had programmes and are also having programmes on education. However, continue with them even more. Many souls can emerge through this wing. Achcha.
125 people from abroad have come especially for the meetings: So what wonders will you perform? What splendour will you show when so many of you long-lost and now-found serviceable children of BapDada get together? You will do something new, will you not? It is good. All of you together create a powerful programme. Do not make ordinary plans, but make powerful plans. First, everyone should become as powerful as a volcano. You should become this. Be as powerful as a volcano in your stage, and in service. Create such an invention that it becomes a short cut because, according to the time nowadays, the biggest problem for people is to make time. Therefore, create some such plan. From your attitude, drishti and vibrations, they should understand that they could receive something here in a short time. Make a plan of serving like a magnet. Even if someone wants to move away, he would be unable to do so from a magnet. He would be pulled close from a distance. So create such new plans. You are double- foreigners. And your instruments are Dadis and Didis. Your Dadis and Didis are all clever.
Pandavas are no less. Look, 5 Pandavas are standing here. So, what did the five Pandavas do? They completely destroyed the unlimited army. So the Pandavas are no less. Each Pandava is great. So you will perform wonders, will you not? You can create them in any way you want. Whether it is through your attitude, your drishti or your determination, make a plan. Dadis, Didis, is this OK? The double foreigners are no less than the teachers of India. There are many of you, and so the wonders are already accomplished. It is good. First create the plans, and the meeting that takes place in India will stud those plans with jewels. You create the outline and those in the meeting from India will then decorate them with jewels and diamonds. You will decorate them, will you not? Will you do this in the meeting? Congratulations! BapDada is pleased to see all the children from abroad physically in front of Him, how so many abroad are now ready. Everyone likes this a lot. There is happiness. Did all of you see how many teachers are ready? These are the special teachers, the others are many more. So, seeing the double- foreign serviceable children, BapDada is very, very, very, very pleased. They think: Why should we clap? Others should clap, should they not? You will give congratulations, will you not? You did well. You can applaud as much as you want.
Double foreigners have come from 76 countries. There was also the Kumars Retreat . The kumars have applied a good symbol. Has the Youth Group created a new plan? Or, are you still thinking about it? You too claim the world cup of the Brahmin world from the Brahmin family. Those from Delhi have not made any plans of programmes for the Youth. Those from Delhi, stand up! Those from Delhi have to gather all the kumars and Youth from the world, select them and enable them to receive the world cup from the Brahmin world. You are going to do this, are you not? You have courage, do you not? Make plans. You can do this. The Prime Minister and the President are in favour of the youth. Now, in the world, according to the present time, there aren't just cricket games, but another game is also taking place. On one side is upheaval and on the other side is stability. So there is full force on both sides. There is the force of those in upheaval and also the force of those who have the unshakeable stage. Therefore, according to the present atmosphere, you can take benefit. Make a plan. You will have a meeting for this, will you not? Make plans in that. Those from Delhi, very good. Youth, think about this. You must also make plans. Begin to relate them and let those from Delhi also begin to make plans. Show wonders. Victory is yours anyway. Achcha.
Kumaris in training have come from Ahmedabad: What are you kumaris thinking? Kumaris are very lucky. As soon as you surrender, you are called Didi. And look, you have such fortune, that by becoming a teacher, you receive a chance to read BapDada's murli. You receive the gaddi of the guru. BapDada calls the teachers: Gurubhai (those next in line to become a guru, one who is equal to the guru). So you will become like that, will you not? Are you still in training, or have you finished your training? You have completed it. You are now living at the centres. Congratulations. Look, become such teachers that everyone says: A teacher should be like this one - a selfless, server teacher. There are many teachers, but you become a teacher who is a selfless server. Humble and easy-natured. You will become like this, will you not? It is good. You have zeal and enthusiasm. It is not that you will become successful, you are already are. Achcha.
Now, become stable in the stage of the sun of knowledge in a second and spread the rays of all powers to all the souls who are in fear and upheaval. They are very afraid. Give them power. Spread vibrations. Achcha.
BapDada has received many letters and e-mails from all the children everywhere. Each one says: Give my remembrance to Baba. Give my remembrance to Baba. BapDada says: The love and remembrance of every loving child has reached BapDada. Even whilst sitting at a distance, you are seated in BapDada's heart. So, all of you who have said: Give my remembrance, give my remembrance, that has reached Baba. This love of the children and the love of the Father is making you children fly. Achcha.
To all the extremely fortunate children everywhere, to the handful of special souls out of multimillions, to the serviceable children who constantly stay in their self-respect and give regard to others, to the souls who are always an embodiment of remembrance and thereby an embodiment of power, to the children who are an embodiment of all powers and are always seated on the unshakeable and immovable seat, BapDada's love, remembrance and namaste.
To Dadiji: BapDada is especially pleased with you. Why is He pleased? He is especially pleased that just as Father Brahma used to order everyone, "You have to do this, and you have to do it now", so you have followed Father Brahma in that. (You too are with me.) That is true, but you became an instrument, did you not? You had such determination that there was success everywhere. This is why you are filled with a lot of incognito spiritual power. Your health is fine. You are filled with so much spiritual power that your health is nothing in comparison. It is a wonder, is it not? (Gujarat had a programme. Bombay had another programme. Now, Punjab and Madras are going to have similar programmes of hundreds of thousands.) Calcutta will also do this. (Dadi Nirmala Shanta). You simply sit down on the chair and don't do anything else. Everyone will be co-operative with you. Everyone will make the preparations by themselves. (I will make Baba sit there.) Together with Baba, you also sit there. Both will sit there.
How will BapDada's programme continue next season? It will continue as it has been doing. Meetings with Baba will continue. Now it is the question of just this one year. Next year Baba will tell you about next year.
Seeing the Dadis meet Baba, everyone feels: If I were a Dadi, I would also meet in the same way. You too will become a Dadi. BapDada has created a plan in His heart. He has not yet given it to you. So the gathering of those who are the original jewels of service from the time of Brahma Baba's sakar days, has to be made strong. (When will You do this?) When you do it.
This is your duty. (To Dadi Janki) You too have this thought in your heart, do you not? Just as the gathering of unity and determination of you Dadis is strong, in the same way, the gathering of the original jewels of service should also be just as strong. There is a great need for this because service has to increase. So the power of the gathering can do whatever it wants. The 5 Pandavas symbolize the memorial of the gathering. They are 5, but they are the symbol of the gathering. Achcha. Those who have been engaged in service at the centres from the time of sakar Brahma's days, stand up. Those who are staying at the centres. There are also brothers in this group. There cannot be salvation without the Pandavas. There are a few here, but there are many more. It is this one's duty (Dadi Janki) to get the gathering together. This one (Dadiji) is the backbone. They are very good jewels. Achcha. Everything is fine. No matter what you continue to do, there is greatness in your gathering. Your fortress is strong.
Children played Holi with BapDada. They sprinkled one another with a lot of rose water and afterwards BapDada gave all the children remembrance for the festival of Holi.
All the holy children everywhere are celebrating the festival of Holi in the company of God. You have zeal and enthusiasm. Constantly maintain this festivity and enthusiasm, and every day will become a festival. To stay in enthusiasm means to celebrate a festival. So, all of you have enthusiasm, do you not? So, you are holy and you are celebrating Holi. Always stay in the Holi of the colour of God's company. Achcha.
