Avyakt BapDada 3rd March 1988
Today, BapDada the Bestower of Fortune for all has come to celebrate the Hold of the jewels of knowledge with his holy swans. To celebrate means to celebrate a meeting. BapDada is always pleased to see each of the extremely loving hold swans, who are constantly co-operative in Baba’s task, those who are transforming the world through their pure attitude and pure vision. Because every thought is pure, because the consciousness is pure, your attitude and vision automatically become pure. Not only do you become pure, but you also purify matter. This is why, when matter is pure, you receive pure bodies for innumerable births in the future. The highest on high Father makes you the ones with such an elevated life in every aspect. The purity is the highest purity, it is not ordinary. The ordinary souls will accept you as the extremely pure souls, and will bow in front of you saying: “your purity is so elevated”. The householders of today consider themselves to be impure and bow their heads to the pure souls, thinking them to be great. There is great difference between their purity and the purity of you elevated souls.
The festival of Holi is the memorial of purification of you pure souls – all of you, number-wise, burn impurity for all time in the fire of love of the remembrance of Baba. This is why you celebrate the Holi of burning – to burn something means to finish all name and trace of it – tis is why, after killing Ravan, they burn him. So check, have you simply killed impurity, or have you burnt it? The hidden breath of impurity should not come alive, even in dreams. Even dreams are transformed through thought.
There are two types of maharathi. The first become maharathis on the basis of effort made to attain blessings or the inheritance – they always swing in the swing of supersensuous joy in the mind, in the swing of contentment, and the swing of being the embodiment of love received from everyone’s heart. The second variety are maharathis on the basis of their speciality in service, who superficially, through their bodies, appear to be the embodiment of the fruit of contentment – their minds are content through the support of service – there will always be love from everyone, due to the speciality of service, but not constantly – not constantly either from their minds or their hearts – it will sometimes be superficial and sometimes from the heart. However, speciality in service makes them a maharathi – they are counted in the line of maharathis.
: Today BapDada was seeing the promises of both the maharathis and the effort makers. There is benefit in making a promise because of the full attention paid to determined thought. A promise which is remembered again and again brings power, and thereby a little transformation – but the seed remains buried. When a certain time or situation arises, the seed that is buried receives the water of situation and reasons, and its leaves begin to emerge once again – it does not finish for all time. There is a change, but it does not finish. So BapDada was seeing who celebrated the Holi of burning – a burnt seed never bears fruit. Everyone recently made promises “we will let the past be past – we will finish everything and bring transformation”. Everyone makes promises in the heart to heart conversation with Baba. BapDada has a record of each one. Promises are made in very beautiful forms – some through songs, some through poetry, and some through pictures.
Transformation does not take place as much as you wish because of seeing, hearing and imbibing the weaknesses of others – this has become a natural habit, and has been there for a long period of time. You think “I will not allow this weakness to emerge again”, but you think that by knowing the sanskaras of a certain soul, you will keep yourself safe in the future and have good wishes and pure feelings. It is good to not see the weaknesses of others – but you have to pay constant attention to what you will see in their place, or what you will imbibe from that soul. You remember to not do a particular thing, but you do not have natural attention as to what you should think, see, or do for the other souls instead. This is why, although you clear a place, it is not used in a good way – dirt or mosquitos gather in that empty place, for the space has to be filled. So, whenever you come into connection with souls, the elevated thoughts of natural transformation should first enter the consciousness. Because you are already knowledge-full, you already know everyone’s virtues, task, sankaras, service, and nature. If, instead of space, the elevated sankara of transformation is constantly overflowing, impurity will automatically finish.
You heard previously as well, that when some children sit in remembrance, and when they practice remembrance as they move along, although they experience pace, they do not experience happiness, and so do not have hope and enthusiasm. Even whilst having yoga the soul is not content with itself – the soul remains tired. This is because you only think “I am a soul, a dot, the embodiment of light, and Baba is the same” but not “what sort of soul am I – what are my specialties? I am multi-million times fortunate. I am a soul of the original creation. I am a soul who claims Baba’s heart-throne”. You don’t think of those specialties which bring happiness. To simply think “I am a dot. I am light. I am peace” takes the soul to the stage of nil (emptiness) and the head becomes heavy. So think about the elevated stage and your specialties. Transform your consciousness, form, attitude, and drishti. See yourself in this form and see others in this form. Fill the space – do not leave it empty. Do not think about whether others are going to change, but ask “Have I changed?”. Self transformation will bring about transformation of others in front of you.
Once you have burnt the waste and impure, you become clean, elevated and pure. Such souls automatically remain coloured with the company of the Father. Such souls constantly celebrate the auspicious meeting with Baba and all souls – “auspicious” means that they celebrate a beneficial, elevated, and pure meeting. Do you understand? Did you celebrate such a Holi? When there is hope and enthusiasm, every moment is a festival. So celebrate with great happiness, play, eat, and enjoy yourselves, but always be holy, and continue to celebrate a meeting. Achcha.
To those who are constantly congratulated by Baba and by every Brahmin through good wishes and blessings; to the extremely elevated, pure souls who are constantly coloured by the company and who constantly celebrate a meeting with Baba: BapDada’s love, remembrance and namaste.
