Keep your Companion with you, be seated on the throne of a detached observer and remain happy.

Today, the Father, the World Benefactor, is happy to see the children from all over the world. Lines of love and co-operation are visible on the faces of all the children. BapDada is hearing the song “My Baba” emerging from the heart of each one. In response, BapDada says: “Oh My very dear, very dear and beloved children”. Each child is very dear and very much loved. Why? You are the few out of multimillions and the handful out of the few. That makes you beloved, does it not? BapDada is happy to see the beloved children. He constantly sees the children dancing in happiness and wishes to see them dancing all the time. You do remain happy but the Father wants to see you constantly happy. Do you remain constantly happy or does your happiness fluctuate? Is it that sometimes there is a lot of happiness, sometimes a little less happiness and sometimes a lot less?

The Father also has told you earlier that, at present, the world need you children to serve it in such a way that through your faces, through your eyes and through a few words, you are able to remove the sorrow of every soul and give them happiness, that as soon as they see you they become happy. This is why you should constantly have a happy face and be an image of happiness, because the happiness in the mind is clearly revealed on the face. Even if a wandering, distressed soul who is experiencing sorrow comes in front of you, even if he considers it impossible to remain happy, as soon as he comes in front of you, your image, your attitude and your vision should transform that soul. Today, people spend so much money for happiness of mind and they create so many new facilities for their entertainment. Theirs are temporary facilities (sadhan) whereas you are making true spiritual endeavor (sadhna) for all time. So, your spiritual endeavor should transform those souls. They come to you in distress (hai! hai!) but they go back singing praise (Wah! Wah!) when they leave. “Wah ! It is the wonder of the souls belonging to God!”. So, do this service. From time to time, as souls become distressed in spite of temporary facilities, at such times, your happiness will become their support because you are the ones who have the fortune of happiness. Do you have the fortune of happiness or not? You are not incomplete in this, are you? You are those who have the fortune of happiness (khushnaseeb). No other souls throughout the whole cycle have the fortune of happiness that you have. Give others the experience of such great intoxication through your faces and behavior. Are you able to do this? Or, are you already doing this?

If you do not experience happiness in Brahmin life, what have you achieved by becoming a Brahmin? Brahmin life means a life of happiness. Sometimes, BapDada sees that the faces of some children are slightly..... What happens then? All of you know this very well and this is why you are laughing. Seeing such faces, BapDada feels mercy and is also a little amazed. My children and unhappy! Is this possible? It is not, is it? To be unhappy (udaas) means to be a servant (does) of Maya. However, you are master conquerors of Maya. What is Maya compared to you? It is not even an ant; it is a dead ant. From a distance, it seems to be alive, but it is in fact dead. You simply need to have the power to discern from a distance. Just as you have the knowledge of the Father in great detail, in the same way, imbibe the knowledge of the various forms of Maya and recognize her. Maya simply creates fear in you just as parents create fear in their children in order to make them fearless. They do not do anything, but purposely create fear to make them fearless. In the same way, Maya also adopts various forms to make you belong to her. When Maya adopts any of her various forms, you should also become those with various forms and recognize her. What games do you play when you are not able to recognize her? You start battling, and think, "Oh dear! Maya has camel" Then, by battling, the mind and intellect become tired and, out of tiredness, what do you then say? "Maya is very powerful. Maya is very sharp." She is nothing. Your weakness becomes the different forms of Maya. BapDada constantly wants to see every child having the intoxication of the fortune of happiness, of constantly having a happy face and of remaining healthy with the nourishment of happiness and full of the treasures of happiness. What does one need in life? Nourishment and treasures. What more does one need? So, do you have the nourishment of happiness or does the stock finish? Your treasures of happiness are limitless. They are limitless, are they not? The more you spend, the more they increase. Even if you do not make any other effort, simply keep this aim: "No matter what happens, whether it is through the state of one's own mind, through other souls, or through the elements or atmosphere, I must not let go of my happiness. This is easy effort, is it not? Or, does your happiness slip away? Is it easy or is it sometimes difficult? Maintain this determination and forget everything else. Simply make the one aspect firm: "I have to remain happy." What will the different situations seem like then? Just a game. Remain constantly seated on the seat of a detached observer when watching your own game. Even if someone insults you or tries to upset you and bring you down from your self-respect of a detached observer, you must not come down from your seat of a detached observer. Your happiness decreases when you do come down.

BapDada also has told you two words earlier: Companion (Saathi) and detached observer (saakshi). When BapDada is with you, then the seat of detached observer remains very strong. All of you say that BapDada is with you. BapDada is with you! However, you continue to have the influence of Maya over you and you also continue to say that BapDada is with you. BapDada is with you, but you do not use His companionship at the time of need; you put Him aside at that time. When someone is with you, or when there is need of someone for a task or, when a situation arises, you do not then remember the Company you have, but become engrossed in the situation. You believe that you have this Company and you also experience it. Would any of you say that you do not have this Company? No one says this. All of you say: Baba is with me. None of you even say: Baba is with you. Each one of you says: “Baba is with me. He is my Companion.” Do you say this in your mind or through your lips? Do you say this in your mind?

BapDada sees the games. The Father is sitting with you and yet you become so engrossed in your own situation, trying to face it, that you don't even realize who is with you. So, what does the Father do then? From being the Companion, the Father also becomes the Observer and observes your games. Do not do this anymore. Since you call Him your Companion, fulfill the responsibility of a companion. Why do you move away from Him? The Father does not like that. The Father has the pure desire for each of you children to become a self-sovereign, as you truly are, and thereby one who has a right to world sovereignty. Are all of you part of the subjects? You do not wish to become subjects, do you? You are kings, are you not? You are emperors, the world kings. You are those who create subjects, not those who become subjects. You are those who will become kings and who will create subjects. So, where does a king sit? He sits on a throne, does he not? In reality, when he has the intoxication of being the king, he sits on the throne, does he not? So, do not get off the throne of a detached observer. When you make individual effort you become tired. Today you paid attention to thoughts. Tomorrow you will pay attention to words or to connections and relations etc. You become tired in this. Simply make the one effort of being a detached observer, remaining happy-hearted and of being seated on your throne. Never leave that throne. If a king looks very serious whilst seated on his throne, if he is seated on the throne and yet looks very angry and official, would you like it? You would say: That one is not a king. So, all of you are constantly seated on the throne, are you not? Those kings sometimes sit on the throne and sometimes they do not, but your throne of a detached observer is such that you can be seated on the throne while performing any task. You do not have to get off the throne. You are seated on the throne while sleeping. You are seated on the throne while sitting or standing and while coming into contact or relationship with others. Do you know how to remain seated on the throne or not? Do you slip off the throne? A soul who is seated on the throne of an observer can never become distressed because of any problem. The problems would remain under the throne and you would be seated on the throne. The problems would not be able to raise their head in front of you. They would remain suppressed underneath. They would not distress you. When you press hard on something, it finishes by itself. At such a time, BapDada is amazed; you should not be amazed. You may be amazed at your own self, but do not be amazed about others. Baba is amazed, thinking, “What are My children doing? They are getting off the thrones.” Only when you instill the sanskars of being seated on the throne now will you be able to sit on the world throne. If you are not constantly seated on the throne here, then there, too, you will not be able to sit on the throne all the time, that is, for the full period. You have to fill yourself with all these sanskars at this time. Whatever sanskars you have filled yourself with will work in the golden age. You have to fill yourself with sanskars of royally at this time. Do not think that some time still remains, that destruction is not going to take place that soon. Do not think in this way because destruction will take place suddenly. It will not first ask you if you are ready. Everything will happen suddenly. How did all of you become Brahmins? You suddenly got the message, you saw an exhibition, you came into contact and relationship and you changed. Did you think that you would become Brahmins on a particular date? It happened suddenly, did it not? So, transformation will also take place suddenly. First of all, Maya makes you very careless and you will think: We thought it would happen in 2000 and even that is now completed, so let me just take a little rest! First, Maya will spread her magic and make you careless in some aspect, whether it is in service, yoga, drama or relations and connections. You will think: This happens all the time; this will continue to happen. In this way, Maya will first try to make you careless. Then, suddenly, destruction will take place. Then, at that time, do not say that BapDada did not tell you that it would happen like that. Therefore, you are being warned in advance not to become careless in any aspect. You have to be alert in all subjects. Even if something happens right now, remain alert. At that time, do not call out: BapDada, come! Come and fulfill Your responsibility, give me a little power. Baba will not give it at that time. Accumulate it at this time. Whichever power you need to any extent, all of you have full permission to take whatever you want. The treasure-store is open. However much powers you want, whichever power you want, take that now. The teacher or the principal would not help you at the time of the exams.

Seeing the double foreigners, Baba is doubly pleased. Why is this? Because double foreigners had to make double the effort to transform themselves. This is why, when BapDada sees the double foreign children, He is doubly pleased, “Wah My double-foreign children, Wah!” Double foreigners, raise your hands! (1000 double foreign brothers and sisters from all over the world are sitting in the gathering). Wah! It is very good. You may clap twice. BapDada continually hears and sees the news of service abroad. As a result, zeal and enthusiasm for service is very good. It is just that you sometimes take the burden of service on yourselves. Do not carry that burden. Give the burden to the Father. That burden is nothing for the Father, but by carrying the burden of services yourself you become tired. You do very good service and do not become tired when doing the service. At that time, your faces are very good. They are worth taking a photograph of, but some of you - not all of you - after doing that service have tired faces. The Father asks: Why do you carry the burden? Is it that you like carrying the burden or is it that you have created that habit? Do not carry the burden. You feel it to be a burden when the Father is not with you. When you think, “I did this, I am doing this, I am doing this”, then that becomes a burden. If the Father is with you, it is His task and He is enabling you to do it, then there will be no burden. You will remain light. You will begin to dance. When you dance, you dance very well. Look at the dancing of the double foreigners. It is very good. They do not tire themselves. They dance like angels. When Indians dance, their feet become tired. Even their hands become tired. Foreigners dance very lightly. So, in the same way, consider service to be a dance. Consider it to be a game. Do not become tired BapDada does not like that photo (of becoming tired).

There is very good zeal and enthusiasm for service and the Father has the result that it is a very small percentage of those who come into upheaval over tiny matters. The majorities are fine, but a small number of you are visible in a little upheaval sometimes. However, there is a very good difference between the result of the beginning and the result now. You can see this now, can you not? You are now letting go of being sensitive. BapDada is pleased to see the result.

Now, prepare the small mikes. There are now small mikes and there will then be even big mikes. BapDada remembers that, in the beginning, the foreign teachers used to say that it was difficult to meet the VIPs. Let alone for them to come, it was difficult even to meet them, whereas it has now become easy because you have become VVVIPs and so what are those VIPs in front of you? On the whole, the result of the foreign lands is good. The centers are also doing very well and continuing to expand. In Bharat, there aren't so many hands; otherwise, many centers would open. Those of each zone say that they do not have enough hands. In this year, do the service of creating your own hands. Do not ask for hands, create your own hands and in fact, donate them to others. Donate and perform charity.

In the foreign lands, they have a very good method. Wherever a centre is opened the people there do their lokik (mundane) jobs and also look after the centre. They do not have the problem of how the centre will function or who will look after it. You should not think: Why should we do a lokik job? This is the means of your service. You are not just doing a lokik job, but are doing the lokik job to become instruments to carry out an alokik (spiritual) task. Wherever you go, you have the enthusiasm to open a centre there. So, do not think for how long you will have to do a lokik job. You are doing the lokik job for the sake of an alokik task and so you are surrendered. There shouldn't be any lokik feelings. When there are alokik feelings, then you are surrendered even while doing a lokik job. It is not that you have to give up your lokik job and have a surrender ceremony. How else would there be expansion? This is why, while doing a lokik job, you become instrumental for an alokik task, and so, for souls who are living in an alokik environment while doing a lokik job, not just double congratulations, but multimillion congratulations to such souls. Achcha.

In one second, can you become as completely bodiless as the Father? Put a full stop in a second and stabilize yourself in the bodiless stage in a second. (BapDada conducted drill for three minutes.) Achcha, continue to practice this throughout the day again and again.

To all those everywhere who are conquerors of Maya, conquerors of matter, seated on the throne of a detached observer and constantly experiencing the company of the Companion, to those who, with determination, constantly make success the garland around their necks, to those who remain constantly light, the same as the Father, to those who use their might to liberate the world from the weakness of sorrow and ceaselessness for all time, to such master oceans of happiness, master oceans of joy, master oceans of love and master oceans of knowledge, to those who are equal to the Father, love, remembrance and namaste.

Blessing: 
May you be a knowledgeable soul and with your stage of being ignorant of the knowledge of desire become a master bestower!

Those who are knowledgeable souls, that is, those who are wise, receive everything without asking for anything. There is no need for them to ask for anything. When you automatically have all attainments, no thought of asking for anything can then arise. Such children become ignorant of the knowledge of desire. From being those who ask for something, such knowledgeable souls become master bestowers, children of the Bestower. Their asking for something finishes and they receive such huge self-respect that there is no desire for any name, fame or honor.

Slogan:
  
Those who rule fully over their mind, intellect and sanskars can become those with a right to self sovereignty.  

Om Shanti !
