Essence of Murli (H&E): August 01, 2014

Essence of Murli (H&E): August 01, 2014:

Essence:  Sweet children, you have come here to study. You do not need to close your eyes. One generally studies with one’s eyes open.

 

Question: What habit do devotees on the path of devotion have which you children should not have?

 

Answer: On the path of devotion, they go in front of the images of any of the deities and continue to ask for something or other. They have instilled in themselves the habit of asking for something. They go in front of Lakshmi and ask for wealth, but they don't receive anything. You children do not have this habit now. You children have a right to the Father's inheritance. You just have to continue to look at the Father without an image. It is through this that you earn a true income.

 

Essence for Dharna:

1. Make effort to keep permanently the decoration of knowledge that the Father puts on you. Do not spoil your decoration of knowledge in the dust of Maya. Study very well and earn an imperishable income.

2. While seeing this image, that is, this bodily being, in front of you, remember the Father without an image with your intellect. Do not develop the habit of sitting with your eyes closed. Do not ask the unlimited Father for anything.

 

Blessing: May you be an intense effort-maker who knows the importance of time and thereby goes fast and comes first.

 

Souls who have come in the avyakt part have the blessing of coming last and going fast, going fast and coming first. So, know the importance of time and put the blessing you have received into the practical form. This avyakt sustenance easily makes you powerful and you can therefore move forward as much as you want. Because BapDada and the instrument souls constantly give blessings to all souls for them to fly ahead, you have easily received the fortune of making effort at a fast speed.

(Baba is referring to the souls who took divine & alokik  birth and became Brahmins after Jan 18, 1969- the blessing for them is last so fast, fast so first- you too can come in the first division)

Slogan: With the awareness of the great mantra of “the incorporeal and the corporeal”, “निराकार सो साकार” become a constant yogi. निरन्तर योगी

 

सार:- “मीठे बच्चे - तुम यहाँ पढ़ाई पढ़ने के लिए आये हो, तुम्हें आँख बन्द करने की दरकार नहीं, पढ़ाई आँख खोलकर पढ़ी जाती है”

                                             
प्रश्न:-    भक्ति मार्ग में कौन- सी आदत भक्तों में होती है जो अब तुम बच्चों में नहीं होनी चाहिए?

उत्तर:- भक्ति में किसी भी देवता की मूर्ति के आगे जाकर कुछ न कुछ मांगते रहते हैं । उन्हों में मांगने की ही आदत पड़ जाती है । लक्ष्मी के आगे जायेंगे तो धन मानेंगे, लेकिन मिलता कुछ नहीं । अब तुम बच्चों में यह आदत नहीं, तुम तो बाप के वर्से के अधिकारी हो । तुम सच्चे विचित्र बाप को देखते रहो, इसमें ही तुम्हारी सच्ची कमाई है ।

 

धारणा के लिए मुख्य सार:-

1. बाप जो ज्ञान श्रृंगार करते हैं, उसे कायम रखने का पुरूषार्थ करना है । माया की धूल में ज्ञान श्रृंगार बिगाड़ना नहीं है । पढ़ाई अच्छी रीति पढ़कर अविनाशी कमाई करनी है ।

 

2. इस चित्र अर्थात् देहधारी को सामने देखते हुए बुद्धि से विचित्र बाप को याद करना है । आँखें बन्द कर बैठने की आदत नहीं डालनी है । बेहद के बाप से कुछ भी मांगना नहीं है ।

 

वरदान:-  समय के महत्व को जान फास्ट सो फर्स्ट आने वाले तीव्र गति के पुरुषार्थी भव !

 

अव्यक्त पार्ट में आई हुई आत्माओं को लास्ट सो फास्ट, फास्ट सो फर्स्ट आने का वरदान प्राप्त है । तो समय के महत्व को जान मिले हुए वरदान को स्वरूप में लाओ । यह अव्यक्त पालना सहज ही शक्तिशाली बनाने वाली है इसलिए जितना आगे बढ़ना चाहो, बढ़ सकते हो । बापदादा और निमित्त आत्माओं की सर्व के प्रति सदा आगे उड़ने की दुआयें होने के कारण तीव्र गति के पुरुषार्थ का भाग्य सहज मिला हुआ है ।

 

स्लोगन:-  “निराकार सो साकार” के महामन्त्र की स्मृति से निरन्तर योगी बनो ।

 

Daily Positive Thoughts: August 01, 2014: The Spirit of Generosity

Daily Positive Thoughts: August 01, 2014: The Spirit of Generosity

The Opening Ceremony at the Winter Olympics 2014 in Sochi, Russia

The Spirit of Generosity

Generosity means more than just giving. It also means to cooperate with others. The greatest act of generosity is to see beyond the weaknesses of others, helping them to recognize their innate value.

Determination

Several times we find ourselves attributing our failures to our
incapability and tend to feel disappointed. However, the failure is not
because of lack of capacity to achieve that task, but because of lack
of determination. We tend to give up without trying till the end. When
we keep in our mind that the task at hand is important and it has to be
done at any cost, we find some or the other way to get the task done.
Because of our determination, we find receiving help from outside too
and we are successful in whatever we take up.

Spiritual Vision

A simple definition of spiritual vision is that I see the best in others. A parameter of proving to myself that I have a spiritual vision and I am seeing the best in others is that I naturally thank and praise rather than criticize those with whom I interact at home or at the workplace on a daily basis - even though I may see obvious negative characteristics in them and experience negative behavior from them. Keep a daily chart of the three points, for three people close to you, below for one week. Every night, fill this chart up for the day that's just gone by. 1. Name of person and relationship
2. How did I thank or praise him/her?
3. What was this person's response?
Remember that although you may be constantly positive with others, constantly seeing their original spiritual qualities, it may take time for your positive energy to transform them and for them to start transmitting positive energy back to you and start behaving positively with you. At the end of the week, check what benefits did you and others experience from this exercise.

Soul Sustenance

Stress Management

Worry is triggered by any negative memory of the past. It means, you are suffering, and you are probably under the illusion (false belief) that you are enjoying your suffering. It also means you are not living now. You are missing your own life by living in your worries, which are always in the past and in the future. Your worry habit has trapped you in the past where you get the raw material for your worries, and a non-existent future, where you focus that material, and the result is you miss your life now. All this won't change until you choose to change the worry habits that you have recorded in your consciousness (mind). That will require the removal of the illusion (false belief) that you hold inside that it's good and necessary to worry. It's a waste of time and energy. It means replacing the desire to create images of negative futures with positive responses to what is happening in your life right now. Otherwise your worry karma will keep you in permanent pain (sorrow).

Message for the day

To contribute selflessly is to move forward with the blessings of all.

Projection: Many times we find ourselves in situations where there is a problem, where we seem to be part of the problem too. We try defending ourselves but people do not always understand. At such times there is no solution to be found, and we find ourselves talking again and again about the problem.

Solution: We need to become part of the solution instead of just being part of the problem and talking about it. To be part of the solution means to make some contribution in order to better the situation. When we do whatever little we can, we continue to receive blessings from those around us.
