Daily Positive Thoughts: October 07, 2014: Edit your Memory Tape

Daily Positive Thoughts: October 07, 2014: Edit your Memory Tape





Edit your Memory Tape

Before going to bed, have a quick replay of the day's activities on the video of your mind. If you're carrying negative feelings towards yourself, someone or something, then take a moment to edit. Editing doesn't mean deleting what happened, but changing your FOCUS on what happened. It is accepting the errors and spotlighting the positive. Select what you want to carry in your memory track, otherwise your memory will advertently focus more on the negative. The longer the negative tape runs in your memory track, the deeper it becomes embedded.


What lies Within

It is often said that until you know yourself you cannot know others,
and without knowing others it is difficult to have a stable
relationship with them. This is often the cause of unhappiness and
disappointment. We are never able to reach the stage of stability. We
focus our energies on external things and the outward show of others,
therefore we are left with weakness in even our emotions. If we can
come to the awareness and understanding of the peace and happiness that
lies within us then, we do not become so dependent upon other people to
make us happy - because the one who makes you laugh today can be the
one who causes tears tomorrow.



Taking Responsibility, Overcoming Guilt (cont.)


There is a difference between when we have established our own code of values or beliefs in life, and when we feel obliged (forced) to obey an imposed code of beliefs. It is important for us to accept on an inner level the code by which we think we should be guided and act. When we act out of obligation (compulsion), by following a code of beliefs or behaviors that we feel have been imposed but aren't accepted as our own, we should ask ourselves why we act out of obligation (compulsion), basing ourselves on a code we have not accepted. Are we perhaps afraid that, if we don't do it, we will feel guilty?

When we violate the codes of belonging to a group, family, social class or community, generally we feel guilty. If this guilt leads us to question ourselves about what is right for our conscience, we progress in our personal growth and improve our clarity. It is necessary to respect ourselves, being clear about what the beliefs are on which we base our life, think, feel and evaluate. This will help us to avoid the gap between what we should and what we want to do.
Until the should and the want are joined, we leave an open space for guilt.
When we act according to how we feel we should, we will feel guilt for not doing what we want. While we act according to what we want, we will feel guilt for not doing what we should. When guilt warns us that there is something to check and correct within us and we are willing to see it, have a dialogue with the self and clarify, we are on the right path. Sometimes guilt acts as an excuse for us to apologize without really taking on the responsibility for what happened; we pass on the responsibility to the established norms, norms that in this case we haven't accepted as our own. In any case, the solution to guilt is to take on self-responsibility.


Soul Sustenance

Unloading Your Pressure Baggage (cont.)

Can we experience freedom only when there is an absence of outside pressure? We feel pressured from many sides. At work, we feel the pressure to do tasks as per fixed guidelines of set systems and within boundaries of time, of keeping up our performance as per others’ expectations and as good as our compatriots. In relationships, we feel the pressure of experiencing success in them, of satisfying others and gaining respect from them. In studies, we feel the pressure of having to excel in them, not only because that is instrumental in building our future but because of the desire to be seen in a positive light by others. We feel the pressure of having to earn more and more wealth to satisfy the necessities, comforts and luxuries of the family and to maintain a certain image in society. In the face of problems, we feel pressure when we are not able to solve them quickly or in the way that we want. Failure or its fear, in any sphere of life, generates pressure in us. Sometimes we experience pressure because the mind is not functioning as per our desires or directions or we are not able to transform our negative personality to a positive one as much as we want. When we believe that something harmful can happen if we don't reach our set objectives on time or in a certain manner, we feel pressured. Physical illnesses or their fear can also create pressure for some of us.

And so life turns into an endless amount of pressure crests, like speed breakers that appear one after the other, unsettling us and not giving us time to relax. When we feel pressured, it seems that the life forces rule our life and we do not feel free. In the long-term, this repetitive habit of creating feelings of pressure and carrying such baggage ends up leaving us exhausted on an emotional and spiritual level.

(To be continued tomorrow…)


Message for the day


Let there be a positive record of always talking with regard.

Projection: When I have regard for others, there are good wishes expressed through my words. Such words are totally free from the slightest bit of negativity and bring a very positive result. When words are positive, they are few but essenceful. So they have a lot of impact on others.

Solution: When I have regard for others, I will be able to keep myself free from negative and waste words. So I'll naturally find every word of mine being used in a positive and powerful way. So I find only accumulation and no waste through my words. My energy is saved and others too would have only good wishes for me.
In Spiritual Service,
Brahma Kumaris



Essence of Murli (H&E): October 06, 2014


Essence of Murli (H&E): October 06, 2014:

Essence: Sweet children, order the evil spirits: O evil spirits, you cannot come to me. Make them afraid and they will run away.

Question: What is the beauty of the lives of the children who have Godly intoxication (Ishwariya nasha)?

Answer: Service is the beauty of their lives. When you have the intoxication of having won the Godly lottery, there will be that interest in doing service. However, the arrow will only strike the target when there are no evil spirits inside you.

Question: Who have a right to be called Shiv Baba's children?

Answer: Those who have the faith that God is their Father and that they are the children of the highest- on-high Father. Those who have such intoxication and are worthy are the ones who have a right to be called Shiv Baba's children. If their character is not good and their activity is not royal, they cannot be called Shiv Baba's children. 

Essence for dharna:

1.      Become free from bondage (bandhanmukt) and do the true service of Bharat. Explain with intoxication (falak): The spiritual Father is teaching us. We are now on spiritual service. Let there be the enthusiasm (uchhal) to do Godly service.

2.      Do not be confused or troubled by any illness of the suffering of karma (karmbhog ki bimaari) or by the storms of Maya. Continue to digest the knowledge that the Father has given you and remain cheerful in remembrance of the Father.

Blessing: May you have a faithful intellect (nishchay buddhi), remain carefree (nishchint) and reach perfection through the foundation of faith. 

Faith is the foundation for perfection in this Brahmin life, and, if this foundation is strong, it is guaranteed that you will reach perfection fast and easily. Those who have faithful intellects accurately remain constantly carefree. Accurate faith is to know your form of a soul, to accept it and to move along according to that (jaanna, manna, chalna) and also to know the Father accurately as He is, how He is in whatever form He is playing His part (jo hai, jaise hai, jis roop men paart baja rahe hai). Those who have such faith in the intellect become victorious. 

Today, from the blessing we can also infer:

What is perfection? What is our aim and objective? To become equal to the Father. The Father is incorporeal, so, in the corporeal form, keep Laxmi and Narayan as examples and strive to reach their stage. Become like the four-armed Vishnu. Since none of us have met Laxmi or Narayan in this lifetime, follow the footsteps of Brahma Baba, who is a living example for us to reach our stage of perfection.

“An intellect with faith is victorious, and an intellect with doubts experiences defeat” (“Nishchay buddhi vijayanti, sanshay buddhi vinashanti”). Have faith in Baba, in the self, in the drama, in the Brahmin family, in the knowledge, in the four subjects, in every word spoken by Baba, and in your future status. Give all your troubles to the Father and remain carefree.  By having full faith in the intellect, experience the greatness of life, a guaranteed victory and a carefree stage. With faith in the True Father, in the teachings of Raj yoga, in the time of the confluence age, in going to the land of peace with the Father and then going to the land of happiness, become the beads of the rosary of victory of Vishnu.

Slogan: Those who donate to everyone their time, happiness and desire to have attainment (samay, sukh, praapti) are great donors (mahadaani).

Points to churn from the slogan:

With the power of determination, we, the souls, the master almighty authorities, make the impossible possible... we are the children of the Bestower who share and donate the infinite treasures received from the Father to our relations and connections every day, and use them in a worthwhile way...we are the  samples and examples, the most elevated servers respectful to all, who do service through our words, through our connections, through different facilities and instruments, and who donate every virtue and make others virtuous, and colour others with our company... by donating powers with our mind, knowledge with our words and virtues through our actions, we become great donors... we are the bestowers of blessings who give blessings and become blissful... 

We are maharathis with elevated feelings and elevated nature...with feelings of being world benefactors, we keep other souls ahead of us...we are great donors (mahadani), who  donate our own time, our facilities of comfort, our virtues and powers we have attained, to other souls for their progress...we are the embodiments of renunciation and tapasya...with the practical fruit of our renunciation, tapasya and great donations being  that every thought and word becomes a blessing, we become the bestowers of blessings (vardani)...we are the light houses, might houses and power houses who listen to the sounds of victory...


We, the souls, full of zeal and enthusiasm, remember both the Father, the Bestower of Fortune, and our fortune,  and make others fortunate...we are the generous hearted great donors, the children of the Bestower,  who distribute our fortune and enable others to receive attainments... by donating our  yoga for service, we become Mahadani (great donors) and Mahagyani (greatly enlightened)... 

Points from the Murli:

1.   The Father, the Ocean of Knowledge, is giving you so much knowledge that, even if you were to make the ocean into ink, and all the forests into pens, there would be no end to the knowledge. You receive knowledge in only one birth. Baba is our obedient Teacher. The Father is teaching you for the new world.

2.   We are the children of God, the very Highest on High, and so we children are also the highest on high. Our behavior and interaction with others have to be royal. The intellects should be elevated. The praise of the deities should be our praise.

3.   Continue to give everyone My introduction. It is only through service that you will become beautiful. Only then will you be able to climb into the Father's heart. He sits them on his head.

4.   You can be on the pilgrimage of remembrance whilst walking and moving around. Both knowledge and yoga are very easy. Alpha is just the one letter. Then you will definitely have the Father's inheritance of the sovereignty of heaven.

5.   We cannot claim our inheritance of purity without remembering Him! So you have to make appropriate effort for that.  Nothing vicious can come in front of us. It is not just a question of lust, not just one evil spirit, but none of the evil spirits can come to us. There should be such pure pride.

6.   This badge is very good to explain to others. If someone asks for it, tell him: First of all, understand it, and then take it. By understanding this badge, you can receive the sovereignty of the world.

7.   When you go to meet anyone, you don't take anything with you. You don't even remember what gift you should give someone. This contrast between human directions and God's directions is very necessary.

8.   The Father explains a great deal; you have to imbibe this very well. You should continue to digest this. The Father has also explained: The illnesses of the suffering of karma will emerge. Maya will harass you, but you mustn't become confused.

सार:- “मीठे बच्चे - ऑर्डर करो कि हे भूतों तुम हमारे पास आ नहीं सकते, तुम उनको डराओ तो वह भाग जायेंगे”
                      
प्रश्न:-    ईशरीय नशे में रहने वाले बच्चों के जीवन की शोभा क्या है?


उत्तर:- सर्विस ही उनके जीवन की शोभा है । जब नशा है कि हमें ईश्वरीय लॉटरी मिली है तो सर्विस का शौक होना चाहिए । परन्तु तीर तब लगेगा जब अन्दर कोई भी भूत नहीं होगा । 

प्रश्न:-   शिवबाबा का बच्चा कहलाने के हकदार कौन हैं?


उत्तर:- जिन्हें निश्चय है कि भगवान हमारा बाप है, हम ऐसे ऊंचे ते ऊंचे बाप के बच्चे हैं, ऐसे नशे में रहने वाले लायक बच्चे ही शिवबाबा का बच्चा कहलाने के हकदार हैं । अगर कैरेक्टर ठीक नहीं, चलन रॉयल्टी की नहीं तो वह शिवबाबा का बच्चा नहीं कहला सकते । 

धारणा के लिए मुख्य सार:-

1. बन्धनमुक्त बनकर भारत की सच्ची सेवा करनी है । फलक से समझाना है कि हमें रूहानी बाप पढ़ा रहे हैं, हम रूहानी सेवा पर हैं । ईश्वरीय सेवा की उछल आती रहे ।  

2. कर्मभोग की बीमारी वा माया के तूफानों में मूँझना वा हैरान नहीं होना है । बाप ने जो ज्ञान दिया है उसे उगारते बाप की याद में हर्षित रहना है । 

वरदान:- निश्चय के फाउन्डेशन द्वारा सम्पूर्णता तक पहुंचने वाले निश्चयबुद्धि, निश्चिंत भव ! 

निश्चय इस ब्राह्मण जीवन की सम्पन्नता का फाउन्डेशन है और यह फाउन्डेशन मजबूत है तो सहज और तीव्रगति से सम्पूर्णता तक पहुंचना निश्चित है । जो यथार्थ निश्चयबुद्धि हैं वह सदा निश्चिंत रहते हैं । यथार्थ निश्चय है अपने आत्म-स्वरूप को जानना, मानना और उसी प्रमाण चलना और बाप जो है जैसा है, जिस रूप में पार्ट बजा रहे हैं उसे यथार्थ जानना । ऐसे निश्चयबुद्धि विजयी होते हैं ।  

स्लोगन:-  अपने समय को, सुखों को, प्राप्ति की इच्छा को सर्व के प्रति दान करने वाले ही महादानी हैं ।


Om shanti. Are you remembering Shiv Baba? Are you remembering the sovereignty of heaven? When you are sitting here, it should enter your intellects: We are the children of the unlimited Father and we are remembering the Father constantly. We cannot claim our inheritance without remembering Him.
Inheritance of what? Of purity! So you have to make appropriate effort for that. Nothing vicious can come in front of us. It is not just a question of lust, not just one evil spirit, but none of the evil spirits can come to us. There should be such pure pride. We are the children of God, the very Highest on High, and so we children are also the highest on high. Our behavior and interaction with others have to be royal. The Father can understand from someone's behavior that he is completely not worth a penny. He doesn’t have the right to be called His child. A physical father also feels like that when he sees that a child of his is not worthy. That One is also the Father. You children know that the Father is teaching us, but there are some who don’t understand anything at all. There isn’t the faith and intoxication that the unlimited Father is explaining to us. The intellects of you children should be so elevated. We are the children of such an elevated Father!
The Father explains so much to us. Internally, just think: We are the children of such a Father, who is the Highest on High. Therefore, our character should be so elevated. The praise of the deities should be our praise. There isn't any praise of the subjects. Only Lakshmi and Narayan have been shown. So, you children should do such good service. Both Lakshmi and Narayan did that service. Such an elevated intellect is needed. There is no change at all in some children. When they are defeated by Maya, they become even more spoilt. Otherwise, there should be so much intoxication within: We are the children of the unlimited Father. The Father says: Continue to give everyone My introduction. It is only through service that you will become beautiful. Only then will you be able to climb into the Father's heart. A child should be such that he is seated in the Father's heart. A father has so much love for his children. He sits them on his head. He has such attachment to his children, but that is the limited attachment of Maya. This is unlimited. Would there be a father who would not be happy to see his children? The mother and father would have a lot of happiness. When you are sitting here, you should understand that Baba is teaching you.
Baba is our obedient Teacher. The unlimited Father must definitely have done some service, for that is why He is remembered. These are such wonderful matters! He is praised so much! Whilst sitting here, there should be that intoxication in your intellects. Sannyasis belong to the path of isolation. Their religion is separate. The Father explains this too at this time. You didn't know about the path of renunciation. You used to live on the family path and perform devotion etc. You now receive knowledge, but those people are not going to receive knowledge. You are studying such an elevated study and you are sitting here on the floor in such an ordinary way. In the Dilwala Temple, you are also sitting down below, doing tapasya, and up above, Paradise has been portrayed. Seeing Paradise on the ceiling, people think that heaven must be up above. So, you children should understand internally that this is a school; you are studying here. Whenever you go for a walk or tour anywhere, if you have these thoughts in your intellects, you will enjoy yourselves very much. No one in the world knows the unlimited Father. Have you ever seen such a fool (bhuttu) who doesn't know the biography of his father after becoming his child? Because of not knowing, they say that God is omnipresent. They say of God: He is worthy of worship and a worshipper (aapehi pujya, aapehi pujaari). You children should have so much happiness inside: We were so elevated and worthy of worship. Then, we ourselves became the worshippers. Shiv Baba makes you so elevated, and then, according to the drama, you are the ones who begin to worship Him. The world doesn't know when devotion began. The Father continues to explain to you children every day: Whilst you are sitting here, you should have the happiness inside you of knowing who is teaching you. God Himself comes and teaches you. You would never even have heard this. Those people think that Krishna is the God of the Gita and that Krishna must therefore be teaching you. Achcha, even if you think it is Krishna, even then, your stage should be so elevated. There is a book written about the directions of human beings and the directions of God. Deities don't need to take directions. People want God's directions. Deities had already received the directions in their previous birth through which they attained a high status. You children are now receiving shrimat in order to become elevated. There is so much difference between God's directions and the directions of human beings. What do the directions of human beings say and what do God's directions say? So, you definitely have to follow God's directions.
When you go to meet anyone, you don't take anything with you. You don't even remember what gift you should give someone. This contrast between human directions and God's directions is very necessary. When you were human beings, you were following devilish dictates, whereas you are now receiving God's directions. There is so much difference in that. All of those scriptures etc. are written by human beings.
Does the Father come here having read any scriptures? The Father says: Am I a child of some father? Am I a disciple of a guru with whom I have studied? So, all of these things also have to be explained. Although He knows that you have monkey intellects (bandar buddhi), you are also those who are going to become worthy of being in a temple (mandir laayak). There are many who follow the dictates of human beings, but you tell them what you are becoming by following God's directions, and that He is teaching you. It is God who speaks. We go to study with Him. We go to Him every day for an hour or three-quarters of an hour. You don’t need to spend too much time in class. You can be on the pilgrimage of remembrance whilst walking and moving around. Both knowledge and yoga are very easy. Alpha is just the one letter. On the path of devotion, there are many scriptures. If you were to collect them all, the whole house would be filled with scriptures. There must have been so much expenditure on that. The Father now shows you something very easy: Simply remember the Father. Then you will definitely have the Father's inheritance of the sovereignty of heaven. You were the masters of the world. Bharat was heaven. Have you forgotten that? That would also be said to be the destiny of the drama. The Father has now come. He comes to teach you every 5000 years. The inheritance from the unlimited Father would surely be the heaven of the new world, would it not? This is a very simple thing. Because it has been said that it is hundreds of thousands of years, it is as though their intellects have become locked, and that the locks won't open at all. They are locked to such an extent that people are unable to understand such an easy thing. The Father explains: Only the one matter is enough. You mustn't teach a great deal. Here, you can make anyone a resident of heaven in just a second. However, this is a school and this is why your study continues all the time. The Father, the Ocean of Knowledge, is giving you so much knowledge that, even if you were to make the ocean into ink, and all the forests into pens, there would be no end to the knowledge. How long has it been since you started imbibing knowledge? It has been half the cycle since you began doing devotion. You receive knowledge in only one birth. The Father is teaching you for the new world. In a worldly school, you study for so long. You study continually from the age of five to about 20 or 22 years old. If you earn very little and spend a lot, there would be a loss, would there not? The Father makes you so solvent. Then you become insolvent. Look what the condition of Bharat is now! You should explain with intoxication. Mothers should become very alert. It is remembered of you: Salutations to the mothers (vande maatram). It is not said, "Salutations to Mother Earth.” Salutations are given to human beings. Only children who are free from bondage are able to do this service. Just as they became free from bondage in the previous cycle, so they continue to become free now. Innocent ones are assaulted so much. You know that you have found the Father, and so you understand that you now have to do the Father's service. Those who say that they have bondages are like sheep. The Government cannot say anything to you. They cannot say that you cannot do Godly service. You need courage to speak. Those who have knowledge can easily become free from bondage. You can even explain to the judges: I want to do spiritual service. The spiritual Father is teaching us. Christians at least say: Liberate us! Become our Guide! Their understanding is still better than that of the people of Bharat. Amongst you children, those who are very sensible have a keen interest in doing service. They understand that they will win a huge lottery by doing Godly service. Some don't even understand the lottery etc. They will then go there and become maids and servants. They feel in their hearts: It is fine if I become a maid or a cremator (daasi , chandaal), because at least I will be in heaven. Their activity is also seen to be like that. You understand that the unlimited Father is explaining to you. This Dada is also explaining. The Father is teaching you children through this one.
Some don't even understand this much. As soon as they go there from here, everything is finished. Whilst sitting here, it is as though they don't understand anything. Their intellects wander outside and they keep stumbling. Not a single evil spirit is removed. Who is teaching you and what do you become? Some will become maids and servants of the wealthy people too, will they not? Even now, wealthy ones have many maids and servants. You should completely fly on service. You children have become instruments to establish peace. You are establishing peace and happiness in the world. You know that you are establishing this in a practical way by following shrimat. There mustn't be any peacelessness in this at all. Baba has seen many such good homes here too. In one home, there would be six or seven daughters-in-law living together with so much love. There would be total peace there. They used to say that they have heaven there. There are no conflicts of any type. All are obedient. At that time, Baba also used to have thoughts of renunciation. He used to have disinterest in the world. This now is unlimited disinterest. Nothing should be remembered. Baba would forget all the names. Children say: Baba, do you remember me? Baba says: I have to forget everyone. Do not forget and do not remember. There is unlimited disinterest. Everyone has to be forgotten. We are not residents of this place. The Father has come to give you the inheritance of His heaven. The unlimited Father says: Remember Me and you will become the masters of the world. This badge is very good to explain to others. If someone asks for it, tell him: First of all, understand it, and then take it. By understanding this badge, you can receive the sovereignty of the world. Shiv Baba is giving directions through this Brahma: Remember Me and this is what you will become. Those who study the Gita and who belong to the deity religion will understand this very well. Some even ask the question: Why do the deities fall? Ah! but this cycle continues to turn. They all continue to take rebirth, and so they would come down, would they not? The cycle has to turn. It definitely enters each one's heart: Why am I unable to do service? Definitely, there is something lacking in me. The evil spirits of Maya have caught hold of you by the nose. You children understand that you now have to go home, and that you will then go to the new world and rule there. You are travellers, are you not? You come here from the faraway land to play your parts. It is now in your intellects that you have to go to the land of immortality. This land of death is to end. The Father explains a great deal; you have to imbibe this very well. You should continue to digest this. The Father has also explained: The illnesses of the suffering of karma will emerge. Maya will harass you, but you mustn't become confused. If even something little happens, people become so troubled!
During an illness, people remember God even more. In Bengal, when a person falls ill, he is told to chant the name of Rama. When they see that someone is about to die, they take him to the Ganges and make him chant the name of "Hari". So why do they then need to bring him back and cremate him? Just put him in the Ganges! He will become prey for the alligators and fish. That body would at least be useful! Parsis keep the body over a well, and those bones are also useful. The Father says: You have to forget everything else and remember Me. Achcha.
To the sweetest, beloved, long-lost and now-found children, love, remembrance and good morning from the Mother, the Father, BapDada. The spiritual Father says namaste to the spiritual children.
The spiritual children say namaste to the spiritual Father.




ओम् शान्ति |
शिवबाबा याद है? स्वर्ग की बादशाही याद है? यहाँ जब बैठते हो तो दिमाग में आना चाहिए-हम बेहद के बाप के बच्चे हैं और नित्य बाप को याद करते हैं । याद करने बिगर हम वर्सा ले नहीं सकते । काहे का वर्सा? पवित्रता का । तो उसके लिए ऐसा पुरूषार्थ करना चाहिए । कभी भी कोई विकार की बात हमारे आगे आ नहीं सकती । सिर्फ विकार की भी बात नहीं । एक भूत नहीं परन्तु कोई भी भूत आ नहीं सकता । ऐसा शुद्ध अहंकार रहना चाहिए । बहुत ऊंच ते ऊंच भगवान के हम बच्चे भी ऊंच ते ऊंच ठहरे ना । बातचीत, चलन कैसी रॉयल होनी चाहिए । बाप चलन से समझते हैं यह तो बिल्कुल ही वर्थ नाट ए पेनी है । मेरा बच्चा कहलाने का भी हकदार नहीं । लौकिक बाप को भी न लायक बच्चे को देख अन्दर में ऐसे होता है । यह भी बाप है । बच्चे जानते हैं बाप हमको शिक्षा दे रहे हैं परन्तु कोई-कोई ऐसे हैं जो बिल्कुल समझते नहीं । बेहद का बाप हमको समझा रहे हैं वह निश्चय नहीं, नशा नहीं । तुम बच्चों का दिमाग कितना ऊंच होना चाहिए । हम कितने ऊंच बाप के बच्चे हैं । बाप कितना समझाते हैं । अन्दर में सोचो हम कितने ऊंच ते ऊंच बाप के बच्चे हैं, हमारा कैरेक्टर कितना ऊंच होना चाहिए । जो इन देवी-देवताओं की महिमा है, वह हमारी होनी चाहिए । प्रजा की थोड़ेही महिमा हैं । एक लक्ष्मी-नारायण को ही दिखाया है । तो बच्चों को कितनी अच्छी सर्विस करनी चाहिए । इन लक्ष्मी- नारायण दोनों ने यह सर्विस की है ना । दिमाग कितना ऊंचा चाहिए । कई बच्चों में तो कोई फर्क ही नहीं । माया से हार खा लेते हैं तो और ही जास्ती बिगड़ जाते हैं । नहीं तो अन्दर में कितना नशा रहना चाहिए । हम बेहद के बाप के बच्चे हैं । बाप कहते हैं सबको मेरा परिचय देते रहो । सर्विस से ही शोभा पायेंगे, तब ही बाप की दिल पर चढ़ेंगे । बच्चा वह जो बाप की दिल पर चढ़ हुआ हो । बाप का बच्चों पर कितना लव होता है । बच्चों को सिर पर चढ़ाते हैं । इतना मोह होता है परन्तु वह तो हैं हद का मायावी मोह । यह तो हैं बेहद का । ऐसा कोई बाप होगा जो बच्चों को देख खुश न हो । माँ-बाप को तो अथाह खुशी होती है । यहाँ जब बैठते हो तो समझना चाहिए बाबा हमको पढ़ाते हैं । बाबा हमारा ओबीडीयेंट टीचर है । बेहद के बाप ने जरूर कोई सर्विस की होगी तब तो गायन है ना । कितनी वन्डरफुल बात है । कितनी उनकी महिमा की जाती है । यहाँ बैठे हो तो बुद्धि में नशा रहना चाहिए । सन्यासी तो हैं ही निवृत्ति मार्ग वाले । उन्हों का धर्म ही अलग है । यह भी अब बाप समझाते हैं । तुम थोड़ेही जानते थे सन्यास मार्ग को । तुम तो गृहस्थ आश्रम में रहते भक्ति आदि करते थे, तुमको फिर ज्ञान मिलता है, उनको तो ज्ञान मिलने का है नहीं । तुम कितना ऊंच पढ़ते हो और बैठे कितने साधारण हो, नीचे । देलवाड़ा मन्दिर में भी तुम नीचे तपस्या में बैठे हो, ऊपर में वैकुण्ठ खड़ा है । ऊपर वैकुण्ठ को देख मनुष्य समझते हैं स्वर्ग ऊपर ही होता है ।
तो तुम बच्चों के अन्दर में यह सब बातें आनी चाहिए कि यह स्कूल है । हम पढ़ रहे हैं । कहाँ चक्र लगाने जाते हो तो भी बुद्धि में यह ख्यालात चले तो बहुत मजा आयेगा । बेहद के बाप को तो दुनिया में कोई नहीं जानते । बाप के बच्चे बनकर और बाप की बायोग्राफी को न जाने, ऐसा भुट्टू कभी देखा । न जानने के कारण कह देते वह सर्वव्यापी है । भगवान को ही कह देते आपेही पूज्य, आपेही पुजारी । तुम बच्चों को अन्दर में कितनी खुशी होनी चाहिए-हम कितने ऊंच पूज्य थे । फिर हम ही पुजारी बने हैं । जो शिवबाबा तुमको इतना ऊंच बनाते हैं फिर ड्रामा अनुसार तुम ही उनकी पूजा शुरू करते हो । इन बातों को दुनिया थोड़ेही जानती है कि भक्ति कब शुरू होती है । बाप तुम बच्चों को रोज-रोज़ समझाते रहते हैं, यहाँ बैठे हो तो अन्दर में खुशी होनी चाहिए ना । हमको कौन पढ़ाते हैं! भगवान आकर पढ़ाते हैं - यह तो कभी सुना भी नहीं होगा । वह तो समझते हैं गीता का भगवान कृष्ण है तो कृष्ण ही पढ़ाता होगा । अच्छा, कृष्ण भी समझो तो भी कितनी ऊंच अवस्था होनी चाहिए । एक किताब भी है मनुष्य मत और ईश्वरीय मत का । देवताओं को तो मत लेने की दरकार ही नहीं है । मनुष्य चाहते हैं ईश्वर की मत । देवताओं को तो मत अगले जन्म में मिली थी जिससे ऊंच पद पाया । अभी तुम बच्चों को श्रीमत मिल रही है श्रेष्ठ बनने के लिए । ईश्वरीय मत और मनुष्य मत में कितना फर्क है । मनुष्य मत क्या कहती है, ईश्वरीय मत क्या कहती है । तो जरूर ईश्वरीय मत पर चलना पड़े । कोई से मिलने जाते हैं तो कुछ भी ले नहीं जाते । याद नहीं रहता किसको क्या सौगात देनी चाहिए । यह मनुष्य मत और ईश्वरीय मत का कॉन्ट्रास्ट बहुत जरूरी है । तुम मनुष्य थे तो आसुरी मत थी और अभी ईश्वरीय मत मिलती है । उनमें कितना फर्क है । यह शास्त्र आदि सब मनुष्यों के ही बनाये हुए हैं । बाप कोई शास्त्र पढ़कर आते हैं क्या? बाप कहते हैं मैं कोई बाप का बच्चा हूँ क्या? मैं कोई गुरू का शिष्य हूँ क्या, जिससे सीखा हूँ? तो यह भी सब बातें समझानी चाहिए । भल यह जानते हैं कि बन्दरबुद्धि हैं परन्तु मन्दिर लायक बनने वाले भी हैं ना । ऐसे बहुत मनुष्य मत पर चलते हैं फिर तुम सुनाते हो कि हम ईश्वरीय मत पर क्या बनते हैं, वह हमको पढ़ाते हैं भगवानुवाच, हम उनसे पढ़ने जाते हैं । हम रोज एक घण्टा, पौना घण्टा जाते हैं । क्लास में जास्ती टाइम भी लेना नहीं चाहिए । याद की यात्रा तो चलते-फिरते हो सकती है । ज्ञान और योग दोनों ही बहुत सहज हैं । अल्फ का है ही एक अक्षर । भक्ति मार्ग के तो ढेर शास्त्र हैं, इकट्ठा करो तो सारा घर शास्त्रों से भर जाए । कितना इन पर खर्चा हुआ होगा । अब बाप तो बहुत सहज बताते हैं । सिर्फ बाप को याद करो । तो बाप का वर्सा है ही स्वर्ग की बादशाही । तुम विश्व के मालिक थे ना । भारत हेविन था ना । क्या तुम भूल गये हो? यह भी ड्रामा की भावी कहा जाता है । अब बाप आया हुआ है । हर 5 हजार वर्ष बाद आते हैं पढ़ाने । बेहद के बाप का वर्सा जरूर स्वर्ग नई दुनिया का होगा ना । यह तो बिल्कुल सिम्पुल बात है । लाखों वर्ष कह देने से बुद्धि को जैसे ताला लग गया है । ताला खुलता ही नहीं । ऐसा ताला लगा हुआ है जो इतनी सहज बात भी समझते नहीं हैं । बाप समझाते हैं एक ही बात बस है । जास्ती कुछ भी पढ़ाना नहीं चाहिए । यहाँ तुम एक सेकण्ड में किसको भी स्वर्गवासी बना सकते हो । परन्तु यह स्कूल है, इसलिए तुम्हारी पढ़ाई चलती रहती है । ज्ञान सागर बाप तुम्हें ज्ञान तो इतना देते हैं जो सागर को स्याही बनाओ, सारा जंगल कलम बनाओ तो भी अन्त नहीं हो सकता । ज्ञान को धारण करते कितना समय हुआ है । भक्ति को तो आधाकल्प हुआ है । ज्ञान तो तुमको एक ही जन्म में मिलता है । बाप तुमको पढ़ा रहे हैं नई दुनिया के लिए । उस जिस्मानी स्कूल में तो तुम कितना समय पढ़ते हो । 5 वर्ष से लेकर 20 - 22 वर्ष तक पढ़ते रहते हो । कमाई थोड़ी और खर्चा बहुत करेंगे तो घाटा पड़ जायेगा ना ।
बाप कितना सालवेन्ट बनाते हैं, फिर इनसालवेट बन जाते हैं । अभी भारत का हाल देखो क्या है । फलक से समझाना चाहिए । माताओं को खड़ा होना चाहिए । तुम्हारा ही गायन है वन्दे मातरम् । धरती को वन्दे मातरम् नहीं कहा जाता है । वन्दे मातरम् मनुष्य को किया जाता है । बच्चे जो बन्धनमुक्त हैं वही यह सर्विस करते हैं । वह भी जैसे कल्प पहले बन्धनमुक्त हुए थे, वैसे होते रहते हैं । अबलाओं पर कितने अत्याचार होते हैं । जानते हैं हमको बाप मिला है, तो समझते हैं बस अब तो बाप की सर्विस करनी है । बन्धन हैं, ऐसे कहने वाले रिढ़ बकरियां हैं । गवर्नमेंट कुछ कह न सके कि तुम ईश्वरीय सर्विस न करो । बात करने की हिम्मत चाहिए ना । जिसमें ज्ञान है वह तो इतने में सहज बन्धनमुक्त हो सकते हैं । जज को भी समझा सकते हो-हम रूहानी सेवा करना चाहते हैं । रूहानी बाप हमको पढ़ा रहे हैं । क्रिश्चियन लोग फिर भी कहते हैं लिबरेट करो, गाइड बनो । भारतवासियों से फिर भी उन्हों की समझ अच्छी है । तुम बच्चों में जो अच्छे समझदार हैं उनको सर्विस का बहुत शौक रहता है । समझते हैं ईश्वरीय सर्विस से बहुत लॉटरी मिलनी है । कई तो लॉटरी आदि को समझते ही नहीं । वहाँ भी जाकर दास-दासियां बनेंगे । दिल में समझते हैं अच्छा दासी ही सही, चण्डाल ही सही । स्वर्ग में तो होंगे ना! उन्हों की चलन भी ऐसी देखने में आती है । तुम समझते हो बेहद का बाप हमको समझा रहे हैं । यह दादा भी समझाते हैं, बाप इन द्वारा बच्चों को पढ़ा रहे हैं । कोई तो इतना भी समझते नहीं । यहाँ से बाहर निकले खलास । यहाँ पर बैठे भी जैसे कुछ समझते नहीं । बुद्धि बाहर भटकती धक्का खाती रहती है । एक भी भूत निकलता नहीं है । पढ़ाने वाला कौन और बनते क्या हैं! साहूकारों के भी दास-दासियां बनेंगे ना । अभी भी साहूकारों के पास कितने नौकर-चाकर रहते हैं । सर्विस पर तो एक दम उड़ना चाहिए । तुम बच्चे शान्ति स्थापन अर्थ निमित्त बने हो, विश्व में सुख-शान्ति स्थापन कर रहे हो । प्रैक्टिकल में तुम जानते हो हम श्रीमत पर स्थापन कर रहे हैं, इसमें अशान्ति कोई होनी नहीं चाहिए । बाबा ने यहाँ भी बहुत ऐसे अच्छे- अच्छे घर देखे हुए हैं । एक घर में 6 - 7 बहुयें इकट्ठी इतना प्यार से रहती हैं, बिल्कुल शान्ति लगी रहती है । बोलते थे - हमारे पास तो स्वर्ग लगा पड़ा है । कोई खिट-खिट की बात नहीं । सब आज्ञाकारी हैं, उस समय बाबा को भी सन्यासी ख्यालात थे । दुनिया से वैराग्य रहता था । अभी तो यह है बेहद का वैराग्य । कुछ भी याद न रहे । बाबा तो नाम सब भूल जाते हैं । बच्चे कहते हैं बाबा आप हमको याद करते हैं? बाबा कहते हमको तो सबको भूलना है । न विसरो, न याद रहो । बेहद का वैराग्य है ना । सबको भूलना है । हम यहाँ के रहने वाले थोड़ेही हैं । बाप आया हुआ है - अपना स्वर्ग का वर्सा देने । बेहद का बाप कहते हैं मुझे याद करो तो तुम विश्व के मालिक बन जायेंगे । यह बैज बहुत अच्छा है समझाने के लिए । कोई मांगे तो बोलो समझकर लो । इस बैज को समझने से तुमको विश्व की बादशाही मिल सकती है । शिवबाबा इस ब्रह्मा द्वारा डायरेक्यान देते हैं मुझे याद करो तो तुम यह बनेंगे । गीता वाले जो हैं वह अच्छी रीति समझ लेंगे । जो देवता धर्म के होंगे । कोई- कोई प्रश्न पूछते हैं-देवतायें गिरते क्यो हैं? अरे, यह चक्र फिरता रहता है । पुनर्जन्म लेते-लेते नीचे तो उतरेंगे ना! चक्र तो फिरना ही है । हर एक की दिल में यह आता जरूर है हम सर्विस क्यो नहीं कर सकते हैं । जरूर मेरे में कोई खामी है । माया के भूतो ने नाक से पकड़ा हुआ है ।
अब तुम बच्चे समझते हो हमको अब घर जाना है फिर नई दुनिया में आकर राज्य करेंगे । तुम मुसाफिर हो ना । दूर देश से यहाँ आकर पार्ट बजाते हो । अभी तुम्हारी बुद्धि में हैं हमको अमरलोक जाना हैं । यह मृत्युलोक खलास हो जाना है । बाप समझाते तो बहुत हैं । अच्छी रीति धारण करना है । इसको फिर उगारते रहना चाहिए । यह भी बाप ने समझाया है कर्मभोग की बीमारी उथल खायेगी । माया सतायेगी परन्तु मूंझना नहीं चाहिए । थोड़ा कुछ होता है तो हैरान हो जाते हैं । बीमारी में मनुष्य और भी भगवान को जास्ती याद करते हैं । बंगाल में जब कोई बहुत बीमार होता है तो उनको कहते हैं राम बोलो.... राम बोलो... । देखते हैं अब मरने पर है तो गंगा पर ले जाकर हरी बोल, हरी बोल करते हैं फिर उनको ले आकर जलाने की क्या दरकार है । गंगा में अन्दर डाल दो ना । कच्छ- मच्छ आदि का शिकार हो जायेगा । काम में आ जायेगा । पारसी लोग रख देते हैं तो वह हड्डियाँ भी काम में आती हैं । बाप कहते हैं तुम और सब बातें भूल मुझे याद करो । अच्छा!
मीठे-मीठे सिकीलधे बच्चों प्रति मात-पिता बापदादा का याद-प्यार और गुडमोर्निंग। रूहानी बाप की रूहानी बच्चों को नमस्ते ।

Daily Positive Thoughts: October 06, 2014: Something to Give



Something to Give

Today, make sure whoever you come into contact with doesn't go away empty handed. They should feel that they've gained something from the interaction.

Find something to share that will benefit them and make them feel better. It doesn't have to be a physical object, it could be an encouraging word, a solution or even a positive thought or a good wish.

Look Within

Usually, when in negative situations, we tend to search for happiness
outside. We either try to find a temporary source of happiness, a
diversion (which is more evasion) or we try to move away from that
situation. But this only postpones the dissatisfaction for some time.
Instead of trying to find happiness outside (which is anyway
temporary), we need to look within. We need to find what really
nourishes the spirit and gives us life. When we find our inner source
of happiness, it remains stable and unchanging even in the most chaotic
conditions.


Taking Responsibility, Overcoming Guilt (cont.)






If there are people or situations that lead you to fall over the same stone i.e. they lead you to make the same mistake, which was committed earlier, again, perhaps you will have to avoid them for a few days or a time, until you have strengthened yourself and have the inner security that they will not influence you. This is not running away; it is wise knowing your weaknesses and knowing that to get into similar situations with the same people is only to repeat the same errors and to worsen your wellbeing and that of the other. Trust in yourself. You can overcome these mistakes and stop making them. It is a question of loving yourself and living. Out of love, you stop hurting yourself and hurting the other.

Crying over past mistakes, you don't mend anything. Open yourself to forgiveness. Raise the level of your thoughts so that they don't keep you in a state of sadness and loss of hope. Don't allow your inner judge to sentence (punish) you each time that you act, since that way you won't feel free. Your judge that you carry within makes your life bitter; however, it is you that gives this judge the capacity to exist. If the inner judge is in harmony with our conscience, it is good, because it wants to protect us. On creating guilt it warns us that we have broken a rule of our code of beliefs, values or behaviors. It alerts us to the fact that we are acting against something important of ourselves. At those moments it helps us to observe and question what is real, true, important and even sacred in our life and for us.

Soul Sustenance

Unloading Your Pressure Baggage

On a spiritual level, pressure can be defined as an external force acting on us divided by our ability to bear the force or resist it. Thus, force and resistance capacity are two variants in the equation of pressure. Everyone has different resistance capacities. Two people with different resistance capacities will experience different amounts of pressure on being subjected to the same magnitude of force. A feeling of pressure absorbs our freedom and gives us an experience of being ruled by an external entity. There are a lot of people who hold the belief that they can experience freedom only in the absence of an external force, which is almost impossible, since there is almost some force or the other exerted on the soul by ups and downs that takes place in the role that it plays through the physical body; which includes the physical body itself; profession; family; wealth, all types of relationships, etc. Even our own personality, thoughts, feelings, emotions etc. exert pressure on us at times.

Apart from the resistance capacity, the other variant in the equation of pressure is not only force but our perception of what the magnitude of the force is. This depends primarily on the beliefs that we carry. Two people will perceive the same situation in their role (as explained above) as forces of different magnitudes. While we hold the belief that life events, people and their expectations from us, are the forces that are the causes of our pressure, we will be able to do little to change the habit of being pressurized. It is we who pressurize ourself and allow the outside to pressurize us. We can either go through our life journey while experiencing feelings of being emotionally imprisoned, confused, rushed and hurried, or we can do the same with the power of faith and determination, at the same time remaining patient and maintaining our inner emotional stability. In some cases, some of us put pressure on ourselves, because we carry the belief that a bit of pressure is good in order to achieve what we want; it provides us with positive energy and motivates us. So this is an example of perceiving a force in our life, a force which does not exist. Such kind of pressure can deceive us and give us a feeling of being beneficial in the short term but it can have harmful effects on us in the long term. Some others might not experience this pressure because they do not carry this belief at all and don't invite this force.

Message for the day


The power of stability enables to cross over all obstacles.

Projection: The one who is stable is not influenced by one's own old habits and tendencies to react, but is able to think and act properly under all circumstances. The power of stability brings forth the best decisions in the most difficult times, brings solutions and helps in lessening the impact of the obstacle itself.

Solution: When I am stable on the seat of a master, I am able to be free from the influence of my own old habits, those that are of weakness. Instead I am able to transform old habits into new ones, making them into those of power. Learning to be stable in the most difficult situations, enables me to cross over all obstacles very easily.
In Spiritual Service,
Brahma Kumaris
