Essence of Murli September 07, 2014 (Revised December 12, 1978)


 

How to be one who uplifts others. (Paropkaari kaise bane)

To uplift others means to:
1.   be constantly Brahma-chari, that is, one who is constantly celibate (bhramchaari);
2.    be double authorities: an authority of knowledge and  an authority of an image of experience;
3.    be one who is ignorant of the knowledge of desire;
4.   be a constant server;
5.   be humble and give respect to others;.
The one who uplifts others:
1.   sees other souls as embodiments of virtues (gunmoort);
2.   sees defects in others with good wishes and feelings of co-operation and donates power to make that soul virtuous;
3.   constantly experiences the self to be full of all treasures and an emperor (Badshah) of Begumpur (the land that is without sorrow);
4.   constantly donates his own treasures to all souls and makes beggar souls prosperous; makes beggar souls into emperors.(bhikhaari se baadshah);
5.   donates with the power of thought, with the power of words, with the colour of his company (sang ka rang), with the love of his relationship and with the infinite treasure of happiness;
6.   has mercy on those who defame others; embraces even those who insult him (apkaari upar upkaar);
7.   makes disheartened souls powerful, with his love, power, sweet words and co-operation of zeal and enthusiasm (umang aur utsaah); ignites lamps of hope in those who have become hopeless;
8.   makes everyone  content;
9.   puts others first; renounces his own name and glorify the names of others.
 Specialties of the spiritual roses (ruhe gulaab) of the spiritual flower-garden (ruhaani phoolwaadi):

1.   One is of those who are constantly stable in their stage of spirituality, that is, they are in constant bloom.

2.   The second variety is of those who, according to their stage of spirituality, are not in constant bloom, but, because of being embodiments of faith, their beauty is very good.

3.   The third variety is of those who, on the basis of their love for and their relationship (sneh aur sambandh) with the Father, are in half bloom and are filled with the fragrance of love and relationship.

 


Blessing: May you be a master almighty authority (sarv shaktivaan) who easily (sahaj) observes purity, the religion of the self (sw-dharm), by constantly keeping the Father with you.

Purity is the religion of the self, the soul, whereas impurity is an external religion. Since you have faith in your original religion, then the external religion cannot shake you. Whatever the Father is, however He is, if you recognize Him accurately and keep Him with you, then it is very easy to adopt purity, the original religion of the self, because your Companion is the Almighty Authority. Impurity cannot come in front of master almighty authorities, children of the Almighty Authority. If Maya still enters your thoughts, there is definitely some gate open, that is, something is lacking in your faith.

Slogan: One who is trikaldarshi does not look at anything with the vision of one aspect of time, but considers there to be benefit in everything.

How to be one who uplifts others. (Paropkaari kaise bane)
Today, seeing the spiritual flower-garden (ruhaani phoolwaadi), that is, seeing the gathering of the children who are constant roses (ruhe gulaab), BapDada is seeing the specialties of each of those children. There are three varieties of specialties.
One is of those who are constantly stable in their stage of spirituality, that is, they are in constant bloom. The second variety is of those who, according to their stage of spirituality, are not in constant bloom, but, because of being embodiments of faith, their beauty is very good. The third variety is of those who, on the basis of their love for and their relationship (sneh aur sambandh) with the Father, are in half bloom and are filled with the fragrance of love and relationship.
Seeing the flower garden of the three varieties of roses, BapDada constantly takes its fragrance. Now, look at your own self: Who am I? Whatever is still missing in becoming number one, fill that gap and become full because the children of the perfect Father also have to be full and perfect, the same as the Father (Baap samaan sampoorn).
Each child’s aim is to become full and perfect, and so, fill yourself with all qualifications for that aim and become complete. You have already been told about the special dharna to have for this: To be constantly Brahmaa-chari, that is, one who is constantly celibate (bhramchaari) and who also constantly uplifts others.
The definition (paribhaasha) of being one who uplifts others is easy and also very deep (ati guhya):
1.      One who uplifts others constantly sees other souls as embodiments of virtues (gunmoort), the same as the Father.
2.      When seeing the weaknesses or defects of anyone, one who uplifts others will see that defect with good wishes and feelings of co-operation and will donate power to make that soul virtuous.
3.      One who uplifts others means to be one who constantly donates his own treasures to all souls and to be a bestower, the same as the Father.
4.      One who uplifts others will constantly experience the self to be full of all treasures and an emperor (Badshah) of Begumpur (the land that is without sorrow). Begampur means the place where there is no sorrow (gam). Let there not be any sanskars of sorrow experienced even in your thoughts.
5.      Those who uplift others means to be those who constantly continue to donate especially through their minds, that is, with the power of thought, with the power of words, with the colour of their company (sang ka rang), with the love of their relationship and with the infinite treasure of happiness. Any soul who comes into connection with them should go back having become filled with the treasure of happiness. They will be such constant donors. They are not those who donate specifically through their time and connection, that is, they will not be donors for only certain souls but will be constantly great donors for all.
Because those who uplift others are constantly full, they would not have the desire to give to others only after receiving something from them. They would never even have the thought that they will do something when that one does it: “I will change when the other one changes. That one should change a little and then I will change a little. That soul should transform himself in one thing and I will then transform myself in ten things”.
Those who have such feelings cannot be those who uplift others. Instead of being great donors, they become businessmen who constantly make deals. “When that one gives this much, I will give this much.” “Am I the one who constantly has to bow down? Do I constantly have to give? For how long and till when will I have to continue to do this”? These cannot be the thoughts of those who give. When many other souls are influenced by their weaknesses and are under some external control, influenced by their sanskars and nature or by the facilities of matter, then at that time, souls who are influenced in this way, that is, souls who are at that time beggar souls - “beggar means those who are powerless” - they are empty of any treasure of powers.
6.      A great donor cannot have any desire to receive even one new (naya) paisa from a beggar. “If this one changes, if this one does this, if this one gives co-operation or takes a step forward”. How can one have such thoughts or expect co-operation from such souls who are influenced, powerless and beggar souls? First to take something and then to give: that is not being one who uplifts others. 
7.      One who uplifts others means to be one who makes beggar souls prosperous; one who has mercy on those who defames others; one who embraces even those who insult him (apkaari upar upkaar) . Those who, with their pure feelings for uplifting others, with their love, power, sweet words and co-operation of zeal and enthusiasm (umang aur utsaah) make disheartened souls powerful, that is, they make beggar souls into emperors.(bhikhaari se baadshah)
8.      Because those who uplift others are trikaldarshi, they keep the perfect co-operation of souls in front of them. While discerning the weaknesses of all souls, they do not imbibe those weaknesses in themselves; they do not speak about them, but with their benevolent forms, they finish any thorn of weakness in those souls. They replace thorns by making thorns into flowers. Those who uplift others in this way would be constantly content, like jewels of contentment and would also make everyone else content. The wonder is that they would create hope in those who have become hopeless.
9.      For those with whom everyone else is disheartened, they would ignite lamps of hope for those people who are in such a state. Since your non-living images are even now still fulfilling the temporary desires of many souls, then, in the living form, if any co-operative brother or sister from the family, through their misunderstanding or childish stubbornness, considers something temporary to be a permanent attainment or has a desire for temporary name, respect and honour or some temporary attainment, then to give respect to others and for the self to become humble is to uplift others. To give in this way is to receive for all time.
For example, an ignorant child will consider something that may cause harm to be a toy and so you have to give him something else in order for him to let go of that. Through stubbornness, there would be harm for all time. At that time, souls who do not understand would consider some temporary attainment, that is, something that causes harm all the time to be something that would benefit them. By your forcing such souls to move away from such things or by your pulling them away from those things, their effort-making life would finish.
Therefore, give them something first and then free them for all times by your being tactful in this way, a beggar soul who wants temporary attainment and has no understanding will automatically be able to understand and become sensible. That soul will understand by himself that that is a temporary facility. Become those who uplift even such souls who have no understanding. Those who uplift others in this way automatically become those who uplift themselves. To give to others means you automatically receive something yourself. A great donor automatically receives all rights.
Do you understand the definition of being one who uplifts others? Only those who uplift others in this way claim a right to receive blessings from the hearts of all souls. Souls who uplift others in this way are constantly showered with flowers of praise by all souls. Do you understand? Achcha.
To those who constantly uplift others, the same as the Father, to those who constantly have good wishes and elevated feelings for the self and others, to those who are masters of infinite treasures, to the constant donors, to those who make disheartened ones powerful, to those who make beggars into emperors for all time, to such elevated souls, BapDada’s love, remembrance and namaste.
The spiritual children says namaste to the spiritual Father.
 
BapDada meeting Dadis:
BapDada wants a group of those who enable the end, to be the same as the beginning (ant so adi); He wants a group of such all- round actors and those who uplift others. You make groups for every special task. So, at this time, a group of such souls who uplift others is needed, who are bestowers who bestow. A king is a bestower; kings nowadays are not that. Kings who are full and perfect are those who constantly give to their people.
If the king takes from his people, then the people are the kings. This is why kings who are full and perfect never take anything; they are those who give. The hand of a perfect king would never be of one who takes, but of one who is gives. Would the world emperor of heaven take anything from his subjects? If the subjects, themselves, are full, what would the world emperors be like?
Just as you have to play the parts of bestowers in the future, so, you now have to fill yourselves with the sanskars of a bestower. Never ever even have the thought of giving salvation to others only after receiving some salvation yourself. This is known as a beggar to a prince. Do not be one who has any desire to take. Be a beggar for this temporary desire. Be a beggar in accepting temporary facilities. Only such beggars are images of perfection: on the one hand a beggar and yet, on the other hand, full. Souls who are playing parts practically of “beggar to prince” now are said to be constant renunciates and constantly those with elevated fortune.
Through renunciation, fortune for all time is automatically created: as soon as you renounce something, the line of  your fortune is drawn. So, now, such a group of those who uplift others is needed; those who are ignorant of the knowledge of desire for the self and who are constant donors. You saw the father: he even gave his own time for service. He himself became humble and gave respect to the children.
“First, the children”. It was the name of the children and the task was his own. He even renounced earning a name for what he did. He uplifted others even in earning a name. He renounced his own name and glorified the names of others. He constantly kept himself as a server. This is uplifting others. He kept the children as the masters and kept himself as a servant.
He also gave the respect of a master; he gave that honour and also gave away the name. He never glorified his own name -“my children”. The father renounced his name, respect and honour; he uplifted others, he considered his own happiness to be in the happiness of the children and he considered the sorrow that the children experienced on forgetting the Father to be his own sorrow. He considered the mistakes of the children to be his own mistakes and constantly made the children righteous.
This is known as uplifting others.
Nowadays, there is a need for such a group to finish the weaknesses of others and to continue to give power. What would happen if everyone were to become like this? The time of all of you would be saved and the cases and situations would finish and there would constantly then be spiritual loving gatherings. There would then be a fast speed in the task of world benefit.
Now, you have to make so many plans. Some plans are destroyed even before the task is carried out; just like sometimes, some fireworks do not burn and they fizzle out just like that. However, when the thought for world benefit was taken with that intensity, that at this time, this should happen, then that was done everywhere for the sake of it, and the noise was heard loudly everywhere.
You saw sakar Father: together with being an authority of knowledge, he also had the authority of an image of experience. Due to this authority, in his every word, there was the experience as well as knowledge. So, he had double authority. Similarly, every child should speak words with double authority and the arrows of experience and the arrows of the authority of knowledge would influence them in a second. Both your words and your forms should have that authority and there will then be easy success.
Otherwise, they would say: The knowledge is very good, it is very elevated, but it is difficult to imbibe it. So, the embodiment of dharna, the form of dharna should be visible in a practical way. It becomes easy to adopt a practical example. So, a group that has double authority is needed, such ones who are known as intoxicated beggars. Let there be no desires. Achcha. Om shanti.
Meeting groups:
1.      The easy way to become worthy of the Father’s love is to be detached.
Just as a lotus is constantly detached and loved by everyone, similarly, do you remain constantly detached like a lotus? While living with your family, while living in the atmosphere of the world, be detached from it. Those who are detached become worthy of the Father’s love; be detached to the extent that you are loving. A number is created on the basis of being detached; extremely detached and so extremely loving.
2.      Automatically serve through the awareness of your worthy of worship form.
While seeing and hearing about your memorial of the previous cycle, do you constantly have the intoxication that it is your praise that is being sung? When you go to any place that is a memorial, do you have the intoxication that that is your memorial? It is a wonderful thing that you see your non-living memorials in the living form. On one side are the non-living images and, on the other side, you are in the living forms in an incognito way. The devotees are calling out so much; so, by considering yourselves to be worthy of worship, you will have mercy for the devotees. The devotees are beggars whereas you are full.
So, do you feel mercy on seeing the devotees? Do you have the desire to be the instruments to give the devotees the fruit of their devotion? Do you constantly have zeal and enthusiasm for service? Many are benefited through service and it is also accumulated for your future. You definitely have to give a drop to every soul. Do not send anyone away empty handed. Keep your worthy of worship form in your awareness and you will remain constantly engaged in service even against your conscious wish.
3.      The sign of being royal, that is, of being beloved children is to be distant from the mud of body consciousness.
Souls who are multimillion times fortunate constantly swing in the swing of happiness. The feet of their intellects never come down. The children who are specially beloved, who are long-lost and now-found,  always remain in the lap, they do not place their feet on the ground; they keep them on the carpet. The feet of the intellects of you multimillion times fortunate, long-lost and now-found children, should also always be beyond body consciousness and any awareness of the physical world. Since BapDada has raised you above the mud and seated you on the throne, why do you leave the throne and go into the mud? To come into body consciousness means to play with mud. The confluence age is the age for ascending; the time to descend is now over. Now, there is little time to go up, therefore, why do you come down? Remain constantly up above. Achcha. Om shanti.

Daily Positive Thoughts: September 07, 2014: Quick, Patience





Quick, Patience

Instead of rushing around, talking fast, walking fast,
thinking fast .... practice patience.


Patience doesn't make you slow. With patience, you'll be able to do 10 hours of work in 2 hours.

You'll do what's needed, easily and quickly without over doing things or wasting time in things that don't matter. The result: you save both time and energy.

Royalty

If you allow yourself to think negatively and do not think positively
and use your power of silence, it is as though you are trapped in a
jail. One who is in a jail has no freedom and has to do what others
dictate. One who has the power of silence lives in a palace and
experiences royalty. Both the palace of silence and jails have high
walls. But the difference between the two types of walls is that the
jail's walls keep the prisoner trapped inside while the palace walls
keep out anything the palace resident does not want to come in. Living
inside the walls of a palace protects the person inside from the
negativity outside.



Practical Ways of Changing Old Habits or Beliefs (cont.)




Visualization


Visualization consists of creating positive images by means of the ability to imagine, and in this way reinforce positive thoughts and strengthen your will to achieve positively what you affirm for yourself in your mind. With visualization you manage to intensify experiences of positive affirmations and self-motivation, and it also helps you to specify and clarify your goals. The basic principle of using images in our mind is to act as if the desire we have in our mind has already been achieved. If we place images of success, health, wellbeing or inner peace in our mind, these will materialize in positive situations and experience, and this image of success will become real in our lives.

(To be continued tomorrow .....)



Soul Sustenance


Meditation for Experiencing Soul Consciousness
Read over the following words slowly and silently. Using the power of visualization, aim to experience them in your mind:
I withdraw my attention away from the physical limbs and sense organs........
I focus on myself........
I am listening through these ears........
I am looking through these eyes........
This instrument of mine, the physical body, is a precious vehicle........
a valuable instrument, a medium........
But, that which is more valuable and more precious is the being (soul) making this instrument function........
Within this assembly of bones and muscles and amazing organs is a being of light........
In the centre of the forehead is a point of light ……
I am this being of light........
I the being of light express myself through this body........
But the body is not I........
I am light........
I spread rays of peace in all directions........
I become aware of the power within this point of light........
Within I the being of light is everything that I am and everything that I have........
Within my own being are my qualities, my powers, my talents........
In the awareness of who I am I radiate this light within........
and in the awareness of this inner light........
I hold my head held high in self-respect........

Message for the day


Specialty lies in experiencing one's fortune.

Projection: When there is the awareness of one's fortune, there is specialty seen in every word and action, because of wanting to make the best of everything. There is also the pure desire of sharing with others, which also makes one special.

Solution: When I have the recognition of my own fortune, and am aware of what I have, I find myself content. I have no expectations but continue to make the best use of what I already have, for my benefit and that of others. So I find myself being special and making my own fortune.
In Spiritual Service,
Brahma Kumaris


Essence of Murli September 06, 2014


Essence of Murli September 06, 2014:

Essence: Sweet children, all of you have to make effort to have remembrance. Consider yourselves to be souls and remember Me, the Father, and I will liberate you from all sins.

Question: What is the place of salvation for all, the importance of which the whole world will come to know?

Answer: The land of Abu is the place of salvation for everyone. Beside the words, "Brahma Kumaris", you can write on the board in brackets ("This is the most elevated pilgrimage place.") Everyone in the whole world will receive salvation here. The Bestower of Salvation for all (Sarv ka Sadgati Data), the Father, and Adam (Brahma), sit here and grant salvation to everyone. Adam means a human being (aadmi). Neither is he a deity, nor can he be called God.

 

Essence for dharna:  

1.   It is now the final moments and you have to return home, so remove your intellect from name and form. Practice the awareness: We souls are brothers. Don’t become body conscious.

2.   There is the difference of day and night between each one's stage and yoga. Therefore, sit separately, not touching one another. In order to become charitable souls (punyaatma), make effort to have remembrance.

 

Blessing: May you be free from dreams filled with waste and vices by keeping your intellect empty according to the Father’s instructions.

The Father’s instruction is that you should clear your intellect at the time of going to sleep. Whether it is something good or bad, hand it over to the Father and empty your intellect. Hand everything over to the Father and sleep with the Father; do not sleep alone. When you sleep alone or after talking about wasteful things, you then have dreams filled with waste and vices. This too is carelessness. Renounce this carelessness and follow instructions and you will become free from dreams filled with waste and vices.

Today, from the blessing we also can infer:

It is said, sleep like a baby...have sweet dreams...one can have those when the mind is at peace; when there is no agitation, no worry, no fear. It is also said, never go to bed angry; resolve your conflicts to have a good night’s sleep.  Baba says, hand me your burdens, become light and sleep tight.

 

Slogan: Fortunate (takdeervan) souls are able to receive blessings from everyone through their true service.

Points to churn from the slogan:

We, the Brahmin souls, are the most elevated fortunate souls, who attain auspicious blessings from every soul and remain stable in the stage of unlimited good wishes and pure feelings...

With tapasya from the heart, with love for everyone from the heart, with the consciousness of being instruments and by having pure feelings, we give blessings to all and receive blessings from all while doing service...

We are the double philanthropists and the double donors who not only give away the jewels of knowledge, but also our bodies, mind and wealth...we are the jewels of contentment who claim a certificate of everyone’s blessings and receive the certificate of contentment from everyone...




Om shanti.
Double om shanti because one is from the Father and the other is from Dada; there are both souls. That One is the Supreme Soul and this one is a soul. That One gives you the aim: I am a resident of the supreme abode. This one also says the same. The Father says “Om shanti” and this one also says “Om shanti.” Children too say “Om shanti”, that is, we are souls, residents of the land of peace.
Here, you have to sit apart, not touching one another. You must not touch the person you are sitting next to because there is difference of night and day in each one's stage and yoga. Some stay in remembrance very well whereas others don't have any remembrance at all. So, those who don't have any remembrance at all are sinful souls, tamopradhan, whereas those who have remembrance become charitable souls, satopradhan. There is a lot of difference. Although you may be living together at home, there is a difference. This is why there are devilish names in the Bhagawad that are remembered. That refers to this time.
The Father sits here and explains to you children: These are the divine activities that are remembered on the path of devotion. You wouldn't remember anything in the golden age; you will have forgotten everything. It is only at this time that the Father gives you these teachings. You will have completely forgotten this in the golden age. Then, in the copper age, they write scriptures and try to teach Raja Yoga. However, they cannot teach Raja Yoga.
It is only when the Father comes here personally that He teaches it to you. You know how the Father teaches you Raja Yoga. Then, after 5000 years, He will say the same again: Sweetest, spiritual children.
Neither can human beings say this to other human beings nor can deities say it to deities. It is only the spiritual Father who says this to the spiritual children. Once you have played your part, you will then play your part again after 5000 years because you will have then come down the ladder. You now have the secrets of the beginning, middle and end in your intellects. You know that that is the land of peace, that is, the supreme abode. We souls of all different religions live there, numberwise, in the incorporeal world.
You can see how the stars are up there. You cannot see anything else there. There isn't anything up above. There is just the element of brahm. Here, you are standing on the earth; this is the field of action (karm kshetra). You come here, adopt a body and perform actions.
The Father has explained: When you receive an inheritance from Me, your actions become neutral for 21 births because there is no kingdom of Ravan there. That is the Godly kingdom which God is now establishing. He continues to explain to you children: Remember Shiv Baba and you can become the masters of heaven. Shiv Baba established heaven. So, remember Shiv Baba and the land of happiness. First of all, remember the land of peace and you will also remember the cycle.
You children forget this and so you have to be reminded over and over again. O sweetest children, consider yourselves to be souls and remember the Father and your sins will be burnt away. He promises: If you stay in remembrance, I will liberate you from your sins. The Father alone is the Purifier, the Almighty Authority. He is called the World Almighty Authority.
He knows the beginning, middle and end of the whole world. He knows all the Vedas and scriptures etc., and that is why He says: There is no essence in them. There is no essence in the Gita either, even though it is the jewel of all scriptures, the mother and father (sarv shaastrmai shiromani, maai-baap); the rest are its children.
Similarly, there is first of all Prajapita Brahma and the rest are all the children. Prajapita Brahma is called Adam, the first man. Adam means a human being (aadmi). He is a human being and so he cannot be called a deity. Adam is the first human being. Devotees call Brahma, Adam, a deity. The Father sits here and explains to you that Adam means a human being. He is neither a deity nor God. Lakshmi and Narayan are deities. There is deityism in Paradise. That is the new world. That is the wonder of the world.
All the rest are the wonders of Maya. The wonders of Maya come into existence after the copper age begins. The Godly wonder is heaven which is established by the Father alone. It is now being established.
No one knows the value of the Dilwala Temple. People go on pilgrimages and this is the best pilgrimage place. You write, Brahma Kumaris Ishwariya Vishwa Vidhyalaya, Mt. Abu. So, in brackets, you should also write “(The most elevated pilgrimage place)” because you know that it is here that everyone receives salvation. No one else knows this.
So, just as the Gita is the jewel of all scriptures, so too, the greatest of all pilgrimage places is Abu. Then, when people read it, their attention will be drawn. This is the greatest pilgrimage place of all pilgrimage places in the world, where the Father sits and grants salvation to everyone. There are many pilgrimage places. They even consider the memorial place of Gandhi to be a pilgrimage place. Everyone goes there and offers flowers etc. They don't know anything at all.
You children know this and so, while sitting here, you should have a lot of happiness in your hearts. We are establishing heaven. The Father now says: Consider yourselves to be souls and remember Me. The study is very easy. It doesn't cost you anything. Did it cost your Mama even a single penny? She studied without spending even a penny and became so clever that she claimed number one. She became a Raja Yogini. No one like Mama has emerged.
Look, the Father sits here and teaches you souls alone. It will be souls that receive the kingdom. It was souls that lost the kingdom. Such a tiny soul does so much work. The worst work of all is to indulge in vice. Souls play parts for 84 births. Such a tiny soul has so much power; he rules the whole world. Those deity souls have so much power.
Each religion has its own strength. The Christian religion has so much strength. When a soul has strength, he performs actions through the body. It is the soul that comes here and performs actions on this field of action. There are no bad activities performed there. Souls go on to the path of sin when it is the kingdom of Ravan. People say that vices exist all the time. You can explain that there is no kingdom of Ravan there, so how could there be vices there?
There, there is just the power of yoga. The Raja Yoga of Bharat is very well known. Many people want to learn it, but only you can teach it. No one else can teach it. For instance, Maharishi used to make so much effort to teach yoga. However, the world doesn't know that it's not possible for hatha yogis to teach Raja Yoga. So many people go to Chinmayananda. If he said, even once, that, truly, no one except the BKs can teach the ancient Raja Yoga of Bharat, then that would be enough. However, it isn't the law for that sound to spread now. Not everyone will understand. It requires a lot of effort and there will also be your praise.
At the end, they will say: O Prabhu, O Shiv Baba, Your divine activities are wonderful! You now understand that, apart from you, no one considers the Father to be the Supreme Father, the Supreme Teacher and the Supreme Satguru. Here, too, there are many who, while moving along, are harassed by Maya, and so they become completely senseless. The destination is very high. This is a battlefield and Maya causes a lot of obstacles on it. Those people are making preparations for destruction. You are making effort here to conquer the five vices. You are making effort for victory whereas they are making effort for destruction.
Both tasks will be accomplished at the same time. There is still time. Our kingdom has not yet been established. Kings and subjects are all still to be created. You claim your inheritance from the Father for half the cycle. However, no one has received liberation. Although those people say that So-and-so attained liberation, we don’t know where he went when he died. They simply continue to tell lies in that way. You know that those who shed their bodies will definitely take other bodies; they cannot attain eternal liberation.
It isn't that a bubble (budbudaa) would merge into the water. The Father says: All of those scriptures etc. are the paraphernalia (saamagri) of the path of devotion. You children listen to the Father personally. You eat hot halva. Who eats the hottest halva? (Brahma.) This one is sitting right next to Him. He hears everything immediately and imbibes it, and then he claims a high status. People have visions of this one in Paradise and in the subtle region. Here, too, people see him with their physical eyes.
The Father teaches everyone, but then, effort is needed to have remembrance. Just as you find it difficult to stay in remembrance, so this one too finds it the same. There is no question of mercy etc. in this. The Father says: I have taken this body on loan, and I will settle that account. However, this one also has to make effort for remembrance. I understand that He is sitting next to me. I am remembering the Father, but then I forget Him. This one has to make the most effort.
Maya tested those who were mahavirs on the battlefield, such as there is the example Hanuman who was a mahavir. The stronger you become, the more Maya tests you and the more the storms come. Children write: Baba, this and that happens to me. Baba says: All of that will happen. Baba explains to you every day: Remain cautious! You write: Maya brings many storms. Some are body conscious and they don't tell Baba anything. You are now becoming very wise. When a soul becomes pure, he receives a pure body.
The soul then sparkles so much. First of all, it is the poor who take this knowledge. The Father is also remembered as the Lord of the Poor (Gareeb Niwaaz). All the others come later. You understand that it is not possible for them to become brothers until they become brothers and sisters. The children of Prajapita Brahma are brothers and sisters.
The Father now explains: Consider yourselves to be brothers; this is the final relationship. Then you will go up above and meet your brothers. Then, the new relationships will begin in the golden age. There, there won't be many relatives such as brothers-in-law, uncles etc. The relationships there are very few. Later, they continue to increase. The Father now says: Do not consider yourselves to be even brothers and sisters, but just brothers. You also have to go beyond name and form. The Father only teaches you brothers (souls). It is when Prajapita Brahma is here that you are brothers and sisters.
Krishna himself is just a child. How could he make you all into brothers? These things are not even mentioned in the Gita. This knowledge is completely unique. Everything is fixed in the drama. The part of one second cannot be the same as the part of the next second. So many months, days, hours are to pass by and then, 5000 years later, they will pass by in the same way. Those with small intellects cannot imbibe so much.
This is why the Father says: It is very easy to consider yourself to be a soul and remember the unlimited Father. The old world is going to be destroyed. The Father says: I come when it is the confluence age. You were deities. You know that when it was their kingdom, there were no other religions at that time. It is no longer their kingdom. 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 says namaste to the spiritual Father.
 

Daily Positive Thoughts: September 06, 2014: Detached Observer

Daily Positive Thoughts: September 06, 2014: Detached Observer




Detached Observer


Peace ends when you are emotionally involved in a situation. The practice of being a detached observer helps you stay stable and calm. It is the best way to approach a decision in any circumstance.

Do with love

When we start with something new, we usually achieve success for
sometime, but we do not experience long lasting success. This is
because we only did the task on being told or being forced by the
situation. External force makes us use resources with commitment for
sometime only. Love brings constant success because once we've
experienced the joy of doing the task itself, we'll never give it up.
Because we have love for the task, we'll put in all our resources
and do our best. So we'll experience constant success.



Practical Ways of Changing Old Habits or Beliefs (cont.)



Conscious Disassociation


A useful method for transforming habits is that of conscious disassociation. This involves avoiding the situations that give rise to the habit occurring automatically. For example, if you often smoke after a coffee, you have to make sure there is no coffee. By breaking your habit, you will be less likely to have a craving to smoke. Instead of your habitual coffee, you can create a new pattern and have a cup of herbal tea and sit down to think or read, instead of smoking.

Rajyoga Meditation


Rajyoga meditation is an efficient method for transforming habits. By connecting with the Supreme Soul (who is the purest conscient energy) in the incorporeal (non-physical) world of divine light, which is called paramdhamor shantidham, the soul purifies itself and one experiences a natural disinclination from negative habits that we have been trapped in for a long time.

Soul Sustenance


Meditation And Health

The soul has seven original positive qualities - peace, joy, love, bliss, wisdom, purity and power. In meditation, we create an awareness of ourselves as a soul, which leads to an experience of these qualities. The non-physical soul is closely connected with each cell of the physical body. These qualities of the soul flow as spiritual energy to each cell and nourish them. The mind acts as a sieve (mesh) between this spiritual energy and the body. When the mind creates negative thoughts, the sieve of the mind gets blocked thereby blocking the flow of this spiritual energy to the cells, which leads to disease in a particular organ. Also, as a result of a negative mind set, the immune system gets damaged which attracts toxins, viruses, bacteria, etc. towards cells of the diseased organ, which contributes to the development and worsening of the disease further. Positive thoughts have the reverse effect i.e. an increase in the flow of spiritual energy to the cells of the body and strengthening of the immune system, both of which have a beneficial effect on the body.

Message for the day


Freedom means accepting the rules of freedom.
Projection: The one who wants freedom naturally accepts the rules that go untold. He is willing to take responsibility for all his decisions and choices. Such a person will never blame others but try to check his own mistakes.

Solution: When I take decisions with freedom and take responsibility for them, I am able to learn from anything that goes wrong. I'll feel light and free yet with a base from where I can work. Thus I find myself experiencing constant progress.
In Spiritual Service,
Brahma Kumaris
