Avyakt BapDada 13th December 1995

Today, together with all of you children here, children in all four directions are in their subtle forms in front of BapDada. Baba is seeing the double gathering – the physical and the subtle gatherings. Both gatherings are so huge. Baba is happy as he sees all the children in two special forms. Each child is an ancestor of all human souls, the foundation of the entire tree, the roots of the tree. And Brahmin souls are the first creation of the highest on high Father. Just as God is the highest on high, you are the greatest of all ancestors. Do you maintain this faith and intoxication, of knowing that you are the ancestors?

All of you are the Father’s children – to be a child means to belong to the Father, to be his child, and so to be safe from Maya. It is said “there are many ways to be freed from a vicious circle”. You are not going to be trapped by Maya’s vicious circle are you? Is there any spinning? Are you safe from that? Once you have learnt the art of removing yourself from the spinning, there is no question of being trapped.

You know Maya very well, don’t you? Or do you become ignorant at times? Then you say that you didn’t realise that it was Maya. Nowadays the fashion is to put on a different face: one minute they will be one thing, and the next minute they will be something else. Maya has a very good huge shop. She adopts whatever form she wants at any time, and if you get trapped in that, knowingly or unknowingly, it will take you a very long time to extricate yourself from that.

Just think how short the Confluence Age is – to waste one second of that is to waste one year. Whatever you want to become, there is such a short time to become this for the entire kalpa – there is such a huge difference between 60 years and 5000 years. O.K. – it doesn’t matter exactly how much more time there is, but at least it s not n the region of thousands of years.

You may claim the kingdom in satyug, or become part of the royal family, as not everyone will get the throne of the kingdom of the world. O.K., Lakshmi and Narayan the first will be seated on the throne, but their family also receive just as much love and regard – so if you become part of the royal family of the first kingdom, that is also like the first number. Otherwise, not all of you would receive the throne even until the silver age. However, all of you have the aim of being world sovereigns, do you not? Or will you become a king of one of the states there? Some receive the throne, and some become part of the royal family. There is deep significance in this also.

The elevated souls who will be seated on the throne are those who, at the Confluence Age, constantly and naturally remain seated on the heart-throne of the Father, not just sometimes, but from the beginning until the end, even in their dreams and thoughts – those who maintain their vow of purity, even in their dreams – who claim good marks in all four subjects, and pass with honour. Only those who, from the beginning, have done everything that the Father likes, can claim the throne. Only those who are loved by everyone in the Brahmin family, who co-operate with everyone, and receive regard from the heart of everyone in the Brahmin family – only those who have won such regard will claim the throne. If you are lacking in these aspects in one way or another, then you may become part of the royal family, but number-wise. You can come in the first number, the eight, or in the silver age. If you want to be seated on the throne, check yourself in these aspects.

Sometimes Maya becomes cleverer than the children – she instantly adopts a form according to the time. Baba gets to hear of everyone. The children say that one person is wrong and the other one is right. Both sides might be missing something. But even if you consider yourself to be absolutely right, and even if the other one is absolutely wrong, then even though you are right, then according to the time and atmosphere, you may have to accommodate something within yourself. You may have to die – you may have to step away. But you say “is it always I that has to bow down in every situation? Am I here dying for others, and others are hear for enjoying themselves? I always have to die – it is very difficult to die in this way”. You have died a living death, and that is easy. You have become a Brahma Kumar or a Brahma Kumari, and so you have died alive. But to die and die again and again in this way is very difficult, isn’t it?The young ones say that they have to die a lot, and the older ones say that they have to listen to a lot. Who should die – should one die or should both die? If both die then the game is finished. This dying is not dying – it is to live for all time. People say that you cannot go to heaven without dying, don’t they? You don’t go to heaven through that dying, but through this dying you claim a right to heaven.

When you become afraid, thinking that you will have to die, then little things become huge. Although there may not be any thieves or thugs around, if you have the fear that they may be around, then your heartbeat will fluctuate. The dying is not a big thing, but your fear makes it huge. So don’t use the word “die” – this makes you afraid – but it is about bringing transformation with great happiness. It is not dying, but claiming a good number in the subject of dharna. Do not use such words – speak auspicious words.

Do not be afraid in having to tolerate something wrong. Who gave you the order to tolerate? Did the one who told lies give you this order? Very many children do tolerate, but there is a difference in tolerating out of compulsion, and tolerating out of love. It is Baba’s direction to be tolerant, and so to accept that direction should be a matter of happiness, not compulsion. Since you are tolerating, then tolerate with happiness. Imagine the father is in front of you, rather than the person you are tolerating.

Baba has seen many times that there are wasteful words spoken jokingly throughout the day. Is such fun-making a discipline in your Brahmin life? It is not written anywhere. Have you ever read anywhere that you can make fun? Have fun, but let it be accurate in gyan and yoga. Otherwise what you regard as fun will spoil someone else’s stage. So is that fun, or causing someone sorrow?

So everyone is an ancestor, and you are the greatest of all worship-worthy souls – no one else is worshipped as you are throughout the kalpa. But you are worship-worthy number-wise – some are worshipped accurately according to the system, while others are just worshipped in namesake. So, when you sit in yoga, is it just namesake, sleeping sometimes, having yoga sometimes, having a few waste thoughts, and a few good thoughts? Once the white light is switched on, the job is finished. Many also have dharna just for namesake – when any circumstance arises, they say “we will see about it later”. Such souls will be worshipped in namesake.

Just see: they create hundreds of thousands of saligrams, and bathe them with a hose-pipe, and the pundits apply tilaks with a little bowl of tilak paste (they just sprinkle it over the saligrams). So what is this? This is worship according to namesake.

All of you are worship-worthy, but how you are worshipped is number-wise. For some, their every action is worshipped. Even when brushing their teeth it is as though a vision is being given.When you go to Mathura they even give you a view of the idols having their teeth brushed. So do not become one who does everything according to namesake, otherwise you will be worshipped accordingly.

What do the teachers think? Since you have a big name you have to perform a big task. The greater you are, the more responsibility you have.

If there is any desire in your mind, it will not allow you to become good. Either fulfill your desire, or become good – it is in your hands. Desires are like walking in the sun – your shadow goes ahead of you, and if you try to catch hold of it, can you do it? And when you
turn back, where does the shadow go? It follows you. So, desires are something that attract you to themselves and make you cry, whereas, when you let go of desires, they come following you.

Those who beg can never become complete. You beg a lot in a royal way – for temporary name and regard – that your name should be listed with the special souls – that you should be counted amongst the senior brothers or sisters – or that you should be given a chance. Whilst you are a beggar, you cannot become complete with the treasures of happiness. To chase after your desires, or the things that you ask for, is like chasing a mirage. Keep yourself safe from this.

It is not a bad thing to remain a junior. The young ones are equal to God, because they have claimed a number ahead in BapDada’s heart. Do temporary desires make you laugh or cry? They make you cry don’t they? It is Ravan’s order for you to be made to cry. But you belong to the Father, and so would the Father make you laugh or cry?

Don’t use wasteful words, and don’t speak loudly. Don’t say “my voice is like that”. How can you conquer Maya if you can’t even conquer your own voice? Don’t speak wasteful words or words which disturb others. And don’t speak too many words – if you can do something by just speaking four words, then don’t speak twelve or fifteen. You continue to speak so many words – if BapDada were to record a cassette and play it to you, even you would laugh at it. Be economical in this – have value for your words. You have a slogan: speak less and speak softly. To speak loudly is disservice – those who pass by think you are quarreling. Sometiems you say things like “this one is mad – this one is senseless” – for Brahmins to speak such words is like forecasting the truth – in fact, you are cursing them. Do not curse anyone – give happiness. Speak accurate words, useful words, not wasteful words. You do not realise the value of your own words. Do not speak bad words – speak auspicious words.

So todays lesson from Baba is: liberate yourself from wasteful words and words that disturb others. Then you will receive a lot of help in becoming an avyakt angel. Don’t look at others – look at your own self

To the ancestor souls from all directions who constantly have the intoxication and faith of being the ancestor souls – to the karma yogi souls who perform every action according to shrimat – lots and lots of love, remembrances, and namaste, from BapDada. Double namaste to the double foreigners.

(to Dadiji)
There will be complications, yet there will be something god in the complications. The world is like an ocean and the steamer of Brahmins is moving through that world – it is going beyond. So, now and again there will be high waves, and opposing waves. Even when they do come, you will still reach your destination. It is fixed. In-between, the waves will show their own games. You are observing the games, sitting as a detached observer. You remain safe, and enjoy yourself. However, if you get involved in the situations and consider them to be real, then you will become trapped in the whole group. Then it will be difficult to extricate yourself from them. You judge rightly, and so change the curtain – the wrong has to be finished for all time, and the right has to move forward. However, if you change the curtain, the same curtain should not come up again. If you get involved in many situations, then it takes many months to overcome them. Now you have to become even more powerful in discriminating and resolving problems. Since service is increasing, the situations will also increase. Many wonder why new things are happening, but time moves forwards, and your stage of effort keeps in changing. So, continue to observe the games as a detached observer. Apply a full stop, and move forward systematically. Just continue to do this. You are carefree anyway.
