14-03-2006 Om Shanti Avyakt Bapdada Madhuban

In order to experience a meeting with God, celebrate the Holi of burning the wrong consciousness of "I".
With the sprinkler of your drishti, colour all souls with the colour of happiness, peace, love and bliss.

Today, the Holiest Father is celebrating a meeting with His holy children. All the holy children from everywhere, while sitting far away, are close. BapDada is seeing the sparkling star of fortune on the forehead of such greatly pure children. No one else becomes so greatly pure throughout the whole cycle. At this confluence age, it is you fortunate children who take the vow of purity, and in the future you will be doubly-pure - the body is pure and the soul is also pure. Go around the whole cycle - no matter how many great souls have come, there are very few who are pure - pure in soul and pure in body. Neither have religious or righteous souls become so pure, nor have great souls become so pure. BapDada is proud of you children: Wah My greatly pure children! wah! No one else becomes doubly pure and doubly-crowned. It is you elevated souls who become doubly-crowned. Your form, that is, the doubly-pure and doubly-crowned form, is appearing in front of you, is it not? This is why people of the world celebrate as a memorial each and every speciality that you have created practically in your life in this confluence age.

Today, too, all of you have arrived here to celebrate Holi in the viman of love. You have come here to celebrate Holi, have you not? All of you have celebrated the Holi of purity in your lives. The people of the world have given a physical form to everything that has spiritual significance because they are body conscious. You are those who are soul conscious, those with a spiritual life, whereas they are body conscious, and so they have taken everything physically. You have burnt your old sanskars with the fire of yoga, whereas the people of the world burn something in a physical fire. Why? Without burning the old sanskars, you can neither be coloured by God's company, nor can you experience a meeting with God. Your life has so much value that every step of yours is celebrated in the form of a festival. Why? Throughout the whole of the confluence age you have created a life of zeal and enthusiasm. People celebrate the memorial of your life as a one-day festival. The life of all of you is one that is filled with zeal, enthusiasm and happiness, is it not? Or, is it only sometimes? Do you constantly have enthusiasm? Or, only sometimes? Those who feel that you have enthusiasm and happiness, and that happiness in your life is a special gift from God, that no matter what happens, your zeal, enthusiasm and happiness of Brahmin life can never disappear, raise your hands! Do you have this experience? BapDada wants to see the face of every child as always happy because no one else has the fortune of happiness (khushnaseeb) that you have, nor can anyone else have such fortune. People from many different wings (professions) are sitting here. So, have you made a plan for the self to become an embodiment of experience?

BapDada is happy. Today, such and such a wing has come, such and such a wing has come. Welcome. Congratulations for coming. You have good zeal and enthusiasm for service. However, first of all, make a plan for the self. BapDada has seen that each of the plans of all the professions is better than the next, and that they make very good plans. Together with that, it is very essential to make a plan for self-progress. This is what BapDada wants. Every profession should make a practical plan for self-progress and claim a number. You get together in groups - whether from this land or abroad. You hold meetings and make plans. BapDada is pleased with that, but, just as you make plans for service as a group with zeal and enthusiasm, in the same way, make plans for self-progress with as much zeal and enthusiasm and by paying as much attention to claim a number.

BapDada wants to hear that, in this month, every profession has put their plan for self-progress into a practical form. Those of the different professions who have come, raise your hands! (Speaking) To those of all professions. Achcha, so many have come. Many wings have come. BapDada heard that there are 5 or 6 professional groups who have come. Very good. Welcome. Now, one more last meeting remains. BapDada has already given the homework. BapDada looks at the result every day. You may think that BapDada will take your account in the last meeting, but BapDada checks this every day. You still have 15 more days. For the remaining 15 days, BapDada is giving a signal to those of the different professions who have come and even the children who are instruments for the professions who haven't come: Each profession should make a plan for their self-progress, to become an embodiment of a particular power, to become an embodiment of a special virtue, to give some form of light and might for world benefit. Each profession should decide this among themselves and then check: All those who are the members of each professional wing: it is good that you have become a member, but every member should become number one. It shouldn't just be that your name is noted down as you being a member of a particular professional wing. You are a member for the self-progress of a particular professional wing. Is this possible? Those who are instruments for different wings, stand up! Those who are the instruments abroad, stand up! The 4 or 5 instruments for the countries abroad, stand up! (speaking to the senior sisters from abroad) BapDada finds all of you to be very powerful images. You are all very good images. Do you all feel that you can definitely do something and show it to BapDada in 15 days? Is that possible? Speak. Is it possible? (We will make full efforts.) Speak more. Is it possible? (The Administrators Wing has created a plan that no one will get angry.) Do you also hold an inquiry about that? You sisters (teachers) maintain courage. Then after carrying out an inquiry can you give the result in 15 days? Those from abroad are saying "Yes". What do you think? Is it possible? Those from Bharat, speak. Is it possible? Seeing the images of all of you, BapDada feels that the result is good. However, if you make effort to pay attention for the remaining 15 days, then this practice will be useful in the future too. Now, hold such a meeting that whoever wants to keep an aim for any virtue, or any power, BapDada will give them a number. BapDada continues to see who is in the number one wing of self-service? BapDada has seen that very good plans are made, but if service and self- progress are not simultaneous, then there isn't as much success in the service plans as there should be. Therefore, seeing the closeness of time just ahead, keep service and self-progress combined. There mustn't just be self-progress; there also has to be service, for it is through your stage of self-progress that there will be greater success in service. The sign of success in service and self-progress is that you will be content with yourself in both of these and that whoever you serve will also experience contentment through service. If you yourself and those for whom you are instruments to serve do not experience contentment, then there is less success and you have to make greater effort.

Do all of you know what the golden key is to attain easy success in service and self-progress? All of you have the experience of it. The golden key is: To have the consciousness of being an instrument in your behaviour, face, relationships and connections, to be humble and to speak pure words, just as you saw Father Brahma and Jagadamba doing. However, in some cases now, there is a percentage in the success of service, so what is the reason for that? Why is there a percentage between what you want, how much you want and the plans you make for that? BapDada has seen that in the majority the reason for the lack of success is one word. And what is that? "I". The word "I" is used in three ways. In being soul conscious, "I" am a soul, you use the word "I". In body consciousness too, you say, "Whatever I am saying, whatever I am doing is right, I am wiser". This is a limited "I". In body consciousness there is also "I" and the third "I" is when someone becomes disheartened then they use the word "I". "I cannot do this, I do not have the courage. I cannot bear to hear this, I cannot accommodate this." So, BapDada continues to hear many songs of all three types of "I". The speciality Brahma Baba and Jagadamba had in claiming the number was that they were completely devoid of any wrong consciousness of "I". They were completely ignorant of it. Father Brahma never said: I am giving this advice. I am right. It was always, "Baba, Baba. Baba is making me do it. I am not doing it. I am not clever, the children are clever." The slogan of Jagadamba was - do you remember? The older ones would remember. "The One who is giving instructions is making me move. I am not moving, but the Father who is Karavanhar is making me do it." So, first of all, all of you have to finish the "I" of arrogance and feeling insulted and move forward. Let "Baba, Baba" emerge from you naturally in every respect. Let it emerge naturally because you have all had the thought of becoming equal to the Father. To become equal, simply burn this one royal "I". OK, you won't get angry. Why is there anger? Because you have the consciousness of "I".

You have come here to celebrate Holi. So, what is the first Holi that is celebrated? That of burning. You are very good and very worthy. You are the lamps of the Father's hopes. Simply cut out this little "I". Cut out the two "I"s and simply keep the one "I". Why? BapDada is seeing that many of your brothers and sisters - not Brahmins, but agyani souls - have become disheartened in their lives. You will now have to put wings of courage on them. They have become completely without support and lost all hope. So, o merciful ones, compassionate, kind ones, specially beloved deity souls of the world, fulfil their desires with your pure wishes, feelings of mercy and soul consciousness. Are you not receiving the vibrations of sorrow and peacelessness? You are the instrument souls, the ancestors, worthy-of-worship souls, the trunk of the tree and the foundation. Everyone is searching for you: Where have our protectors gone? Where have our special beloved deities gone? The Father is able to hear a lot of calling. Now, with self-progress, give them the sakaash (current of energy) of the different powers. Give them the wings of courage. Your drishti is a sprinkler - with the sprinkler of your drishti, colour them with the colour of happiness, peace, love and bliss. You have been coloured with the colour of God's company. Give all the other souls a little experience of the colour of spirituality. Give them the experience of the auspicious mela of a meeting with God. Show the wandering souls the path to their destination.

Create plans for self-progress in which you become your own checker and check that there isn't the royal "I" emerging. Today, you have come to celebrate Holi and so BapDada is giving you this thought: Today, before you go you will burn the "I" of arrogance and of feeling insulted, of being disheartened. You will not take it back with you. You will burn something, will you not? Will you light a fire? The fire of yoga which is as intense as a volcano - burn it in that. Do you know how to burn it? Do you know how to have such intense volcanic yoga? Or, do you only know how to have ordinary yoga? Become the ones who have volcanic yoga, the light-and- might-houses. Do you like that? Attention please! Burn the "I".
When BapDada hears the song of "I, I", He switches it off. When there are songs of "Wah, Wah", He turns up the volume, but there is a great pull (strain) in the consciousness of "I, I". There will be a pull in everything - "Not this, not that, not like this, not like that". Therefore, because of this pull, tension is created. BapDada doesn't like attachment, tension and nature (wrong nature). In fact, the meaning of the word swa-bhav - nature - feelings of the self - is very good, but it has been taken wrongly. Neither get pulled into a situation, nor pull anyone else towards you. That too causes a lot of distress. No matter how much someone tells you to, do not pull them towards yourself. Neither should you get pulled into a situation, nor should you pull anything towards yourself. Finish all the pulling. Let there just be "Baba, Baba, and Baba." Do you like this? So, leave behind the three things and the two "I"s; do not take them with you. They would create a burden on the train. You have a song: I belong to Baba and Baba belongs to me. So, just keep the one "I". Finish the two "I"s. You have celebrated Holi; you have burnt everything, even in thoughts. Now, you will create the thought. Did you have a thought? Raise your hands. Did you burn it? Or, will a little bit still remain? Should you be given permission for a little to remain? Should you be given a little freedom? Should you be given freedom for a little? Those of you who think that you should have freedom to have a little, raise your hands! There will be a little remaining, will there not? You are very courageous. Congratulations! Dance and sing in happiness, not with a pull or tension. Achcha. Today, it is Holi, and this is why BapDada is telling you to burn something. What are we going to do now?
Rajasthan is serving everyone and those from Bhopal also helped: BapDada is pleased about one thing: That whichever zone is serving, the number of people that come here, come to their hearts' content (large numbers). It is good. You get a chance and so to take that chance is also very good. You have extra service, and an atmosphere of remembrance and extra help. In your life story, always remember these days of special attainment. However many days you stayed in Madhuban, did you have any obstacles? Those who had obstacles, raise your hands? Mothers too. Did you not have any obstacles in this? If you didn't have any obstacles, then how much did you accumulate in your account? Congratulations that you didn't have any obstacles, but you also received a chance, a golden chance, to accumulate. So, did you check how much you accumulated? Did you accumulate extra earnings? Those who accumulated an extra income, raise your hands! Achcha. Now, remember this day, the golden day, the day of accumulation, as a special memorial of your life. Whenever you have any obstacles, then remember this day. Come to Madhuban without a train ticket (with your intellect). Here, you have the atmosphere of actions performed by BapDada. It is your duty to catch those vibrations. However, Madhuban means that it has an atmosphere of the rays of actions performed by BapDada. So many great maharathis have gone into the advanced party; the lines of their actions are also in the atmosphere of Madhuban. Therefore, you have become golden chancellors, not just chancellors, but golden chancellors. Rajasthan also has to perform wonders, does it not? It was a soul from Rajasthan who performed wonders, and it is the atmosphere of Abu that created wonders. It was the Governor of Rajasthan who became instrumental for Gyan Sarovar. He was from Rajasthan, but it was the atmosphere of Madhuban that touched him. Nevertheless, Rajasthan will receive half the benefit of that. So, now, let such co-operative souls emerge who themselves offer their co-operation. They can't make any excuses about not coming here from Rajasthan, no matter how great a VIP they are. If he is an important VIP, then it is not difficult for him to come here from Rajasthan by plane, a special plane. Now, demonstrate this. There are many teachers, many very good teachers. BapDada is seeing the speciality of each one. Now, with your speciality, let such specially loving, co-operative, heir-quality souls emerge. Those from Delhi have made the President co-operative in service. Not closely co-operative, but co- operative in service. He feels in his heart that the work the Brahma Kumaris are doing is very good. However, they have made him a little co-operative. Now, make him more co-operative. Similarly, the Governor of Andhra Pradesh became an instrument. In the same way, make someone an instrument for a particular task. Has someone become an instrument? Achcha. Do not forget your golden chance. Remember it from time to time, whether you are from Bhopal or Rajasthan. Have those from Bhopal made someone an instrument? (Today, the Governor of Madhya Pradesh came to visit here). It is good that he came, but he should become co-operative in the task. Make them loving or co-operative or heirs. Make them one of these three. BapDada is telling this to all the zones, about whoever comes here in the future. As yet BapDada has not received a list of heirs. Baba has received a list of those who are loving, but has not yet received a list of heirs. You can sit down.
(1000 double foreigners from 60 countries have come for this meeting.) Double foreigners are the decoration of Madhuban. BapDada is pleased to see that many countries, many languages, many cultures have all become the one Brahmin culture. Do you like the Brahmin culture? Do you like it? Or do you find it a little difficult? It is not difficult, is it? When the boarding school was established, Father Brahma used to say, "Everyone has to become united and be made into a sandalwood tree." So, all the foreigners from everywhere have now become a leaf of the one Brahmin tree. You are in the different countries for service, but where are you from originally? What is your permanent address? Madhuban. Are you sure? It is good. BapDada has heard the news of how you created different groups for self-progress and also for service and made very good effort. This is the group of kumars. (Kumars were in a special uniform.) There is a "mothers" retreat taking place. Those from the IT group, raise your hands! BapDada heard the news that you maintained courage well. Everyone belongs to you and you belong to everyone. You have maintained courage very well. Now, BapDada will see where this IT group hoists the flag of revelation through their technology. Baba will also see what wonders the Shiv Shakti mothers perform and what sparkle the kumars show. It is good that all of you are making many different very good things emerge for your efforts. BapDada just wants to underline one expression and that is: To remain firm. Remain a determined effort-maker; do not become slack in this. No matter how much someone tries to make you fluctuate, do not fluctuate. Remain unshakeable and immovable. Determination is the hand of courage in your Brahmin life. And where you have determination, success is guaranteed. There is very good splendour created in Madhuban. Whenever people hear about you, they like it because you are not just benefactors for Bharat, but world benefactors. Therefore, congratulations, congratulations, congratulations!
Six professional wings have come: Rural, Sports, Transport, Women, Administrators and SPARC: The professional wings have been given the homework. Now, we shall look again after 15 days. Achcha, children have also come. Very good. (The children showed BapDada a wrestling match with the five vices.) Achcha. This is the Sports Wing. You now know the games of Maya, do you not? You are courageous in that, are you not? Those who play games are always courageous. So, you are courageous in becoming a conqueror of Maya too, are you not? Never be defeated (Haarna - to be defeated). Become a garland (Haar) around BapDada's neck. Do not be defeated. You are so strong, are you not? Are you courageous? You are courageous; wah! Very good. Achcha. (To Shashiben - she is head of the Sports Wing.) You are also teaching them about becoming conquerors of Maya. Sit down! Achcha. What shall we do now?
Now, in one second, finish all the thoughts in your mind. In one second, sit with the highest on high Father in the supreme place, in the highest-on-high place, in the highest-on-high stage. Become a master almighty authority, the same as the Father, and give rays of the powers to the souls of the world. Achcha.
To all the holiest, highest children everywhere, who are the special world-benefactor souls, to all the ancestor and worthy-of-worship souls, to all the children seated on the Father's heart-throne, BapDada's love, remembrance and namaste, together with blessings from His heart and love from His heart.
BapDada received all the letters, cards, e-mails, messages through the computers, and seeing those children personally in front of Him, BapDada is giving them multimillionfold love and remembrance and greetings of Holi. Achcha.
To the Dadis: Very good. Congratulations on your birthday and also greetings for Holi. Congratulations for becoming doubly holy. (To Dadiji) It is good that you have become a conqueror of matter, is it not? You know how to work with matter. You are working with matter as the master and are making everyone happy. You remain happy, and therefore, everyone who sees you is also happy. Seeing the gathering, everyone is very happy. (Today, there are 21,000 brothers and sisters in the gathering.) Everyone is happy to see such a big family. It is good. It is only once in a cycle that you all meet with this recognition. You have met one another after five thousand years and you will continue to meet every cycle. You have nothing but pleasure. You are living a life of such pleasure. There is no one else who is leading a life of such pleasure. This is the age of pleasure, you have a life of pleasure and you always give everyone the experience of pleasure.
To the three senior brothers: It is good. Continue to look after all the activities everywhere. Know yourself to be an instrument and continue to spread the wave of contentment to everyone. Contentment gives you the experience of closeness to the Father. So, spread the wave of contentment everywhere very well. Achcha.
