Avyakt BapDada 10th January 1990
Today, BapDada, the One who makes all souls special, is seeing the specialties of each hold swan. A swan especially has the power of discrimination and the power of recognition – it can distinguish the stone from the pearl and imbibes the pearl, and sets aside the pebbles and stones. It can recognise, decide and adopt – three powers. The Confluence Aged mother Saraswati has be shown riding a swan. All of you play the sitar of knowledge just like the mother – and so it this the memorial of all of you.
All of you firts recognsed Baba, recognised yourself, recognised the time, recognised your Brahmin family, and recognised you elevated task. Only after having discrimination in this did you take a decision and adopted Brahmin life. Some souls, who are not able to recognise the Supreme Soul, who can not distinguish purity from impurity, and so cannot imbibe purity, may become co-operative, but are not able to create the life of an easy yogi. You have recognised Baba, you have recognised yourself, and you have taken an accurate decision – this is why you have become Brahmins and have moved forward. The powers of discrimination and decision-making are a basis for success.
When you have discernment, you are able to recognise each persons’ pulse, and so treat them accordingly – when a doctor doesn’t recognise an illness, many more illnesses are created from that one illness. You need the power to discern each soul and each task at every moment. Your discrimination must become detailed and unlimited. If a weak soul is given a powerful injection, he will go from patient to “patience” – the heart will fail and he will go into silence. If you have not discerned the souls’s mood, the time or the atmosphere, and give a dose of instructions when he lacks courage, he either loses hope, or through lack of power, he is in an upheaval. So your feelings may be good, but a lack of discrimination and judgement prevents success.
If someone has the desire to claim liberation, and you give him double, that is liberation and life, he will not have that much interest. You can give thirty six varieties of food to someone who is thirsty, but he will only be satisfied with just a drop of water. So, if you discern a desire for liberation, and give clarification about that, their desire might even change into liberation in life. Some like to talk about dharna – if you start telling them about the duration of the kalpa being 5000 years, or about the God of the Gita, their interest will finish. So, discriminate the place and the stage of the soul, whether they are your service companions, or are without this knowledge (agyani) – this is the basis for success in serving both. If your power of discrimination is accurate and elevated, your judgement will also be accurate – you will give whatever you wish to give, and the soul will automatically develop the power to imbibe it.
You must become free of the influence of circumstances, of company, of the dictates of your own mind due to Maya – when these influences are light, the divine intellect does its own work.
You have stopped repenting for actions – you have stopped crying out in sorrow because of your actions – but now you have to check whether the action is ordinary or elevated. If the actions are mixed, then the success is also mixed. Transform the ordinary into a speciality – BapDada will speak about this at another time – he continues to see what is ordinary and what is special in each one’s daily timetable. BapDada can see everyone in five minutes, and know about everyone. He sings the songs of wonder of the children, while checking them with the aim of making them like him. All of you have passed in having love for the Father or in recognising the Father. And sometimes you even perform wonderous tasks – good wonders, not wonders with chaos.
Sometimes some of you perform wasteful or ordinary action, and are not able to discern for yourself whether it is right or wrong, because you are under so many influences. So you understand wrong to be right – when you are stubborn, or you try to prove something, it is an indication of an intellect that is under an influence. At such times constantly remember the elevated instructions of BapDada.
You must give importance to instructions given by souls who have been made instruments by Baba – even if their teachings and directions given to you are bad, you are not responsible. Baba always said about Brahma Baba, and he continues to say, that if a mistake is made by Brahma, that mistake will change and be corrected for you. There should never be any waste thoughts about souls who have been made the instruments – you are not responsible for their decisions – it will not be your sin. Your work will be done accurately because Baba is there – Baba will change that sin. This is a deep secret – an incognito machinery. Damage will change into benefit. Baba gives this guarantee. Baba is responsible for those he has made instruments. He is also responsible to change your sin. They have not been made instruments just like that – they have been made instruments according to the law of drama.
Do the teachers like being instruments? So much of your burden is reduced – it is the responsibility of the senior instruments – you become light. Understand this with love and self respect. Baba has made them instruments. Has Baba made a mistake in doing so? Do you have greater power of discrimination than he has?
BapDada has great love for all the children, not just for the instruments. They also give directions because of love, The sign of true love from the heart is not being able to bear to see weakness in those you love – to consider their weakness to be yours.
(to the mothers from villages)
Do the mothers understand? Or are you not able to understand these deep aspects? Villagers are not able to understand so much. For them it is simply enough to say “my Baba, my Baba” and dance and sing. Mothers are always happy are they not? You mothers are not clever, you are innocent. But you are co-operative in preparing the rosary of 16,000 or 900,000. You have come into the list of Brahmins. Never lose courage.
Constantly have courage in every task, and let there be transformation. If you can transform the elements, can you not transform the thoughts of souls? The blessings of good wishes and pure feelings make everything possible. You receive help from Baba. Do not be influenced by the atmosphere or the upheaval, but let there be your influence.
(Dadi Brij Indra’s funeral)
Some souls need to play their part at this time, and others at the beginning of the new world. There is a need for special souls at the beginning, and this is why they have gone and are going. A new chapter will now begin. Which souls are needed to begin the new chapter for reproduction through yoga power? Those with yoga power. Ordinary souls are not needed. Anything may become the excuse, but settlement has to take place, and service also has to take place.
Now do not think about who will give birth to Krishna, and who to Radhe. Do not go into this expansion. This is not a topic. This is why you have been told that the games of karma are wonderful. Do not go into this. What is the benefit of that? Anyone may give birth. Are you going to go there, or are you just going to think about it? Those who speak about it do not go there, so finish the thoughts.
To the special souls in all four directions who have the power of discrimination – to the souls who are the elevated images of success – to the powerful souls who bring about transformation through courage, good wishes, and pure feelings – to the children who constantly sing songs of happiness – BapDada’s love, remembrance, and namaste.
