The lotus-like stage is the elevated seat of Brahmin
life
Are you constantly seated on the lotus-like elevated
seat of Brahmin life? Brahmins always have their seat
with them. Are you Brahmins also always seated on your
seats? The lotus-like stage means to be loving and
beyond the attraction of the physical organs whilst
performing actions. Not only should you be loving and
detached in your awareness, but every action at every
second should be performed in a loving and detached
stage. Even today, in memory of this, devotees praise
each of your sense organs as the lotus eyes, the lotus
lips and the lotus hands. Which period of time does this
seat belong to? To that of the Brahmin life. Ask
yourself: Has every physical organ of yours become like
a lotus? Have your eyes become like a lotus? Have your
hands become like a lotus? To be like a lotus is to
perform every action whilst remaining free from the
bondage of any vice. You see a body, but when you see a
body with your lotus eyes, you will not be bound by the
attraction of the body. It is just as a lotus is
detached from the water whilst growing in the water,
that is, it is beyond the pull of the attraction of
water; it remains detached from all the different
relations. A lotus has many relations. A lotus is not
alone; it is a symbol of family life. Brahmin souls are
those who become as totally detached as atoms whilst
living with their families, whether lokik or alokik;
whilst living in a tamoguni and impure atmosphere, they
remain totally detached. Master creators would have the
same virtues as the Creator. Are you always seated on
this seat or only sometimes? Only those who are
constantly seated on this seat can remain free from
bondage and be constantly yogyukt. Check to what
percentage you are free from the bondage of the five
vices and the five elements. Are you a soul who is
caught up in this or one who is totally free?
All of you have promised BapDada that you will leave
everyone else and belong to Baba that you will do as He
says and move as He makes you move. Are you fulfilling
your promise? For how long do you remember your promise
and for how long do you forget it throughout the day?
Every day, you sing: Mine is one Shiv Baba and none
other. Do you have such a stage? Is there any
relationship, love, co-operation, attainment, person or
material comfort still remaining that would take you
away from the Father? Is there any person or thing that
can attract and tie in bondage a soul who is free from
bondage? As there is no one else, do you constantly
experience yourself being a yogyukt soul, free from
bondage? Or, do you just say that there is none other,
but, in reality, there is? Is there someone else or is
everything over? If there is someone else, then why do
you sing this song? Do you sing it just to please
BapDada? Or, do you sing it hoping that it will create
such a stage? Do you know the speciality of Brahmin
life? A Brahmin is one whose thinking, speaking and
doing are all the same - let there be no difference.
When will you adopt this speciality of Brahmin life? Now
or at the end? There are even some children who, instead
of making effort for themselves, leave everything to
time and say, "We will do it when the time comes; it
will happen." When souls are weak, they leave everything
to time. What do people say when they come to see your
exhibitions at the museums? "We will come back when we
have time; we don't have time at the moment." These are
words of souls who do not have knowledge; they are
ignorant of the knowledge of time. However, you have the
knowledge of the present time. What do you call the
present time? You call it the year or age of
benevolence. You call it the time for earning an income
for the entire cycle. You call it the time to sow the
seeds of elevated actions. You call it the time to
record the record of sanskars for 5000 years. You call
it the time of benefit for the world, the time for world
transformation. What would you call those who have
knowledge of the present time yet waste their time and
leave everything to the future? Time is your creation.
What would you say about a creator whose effort depends
upon time, the creation, that is, is your effort
dependent on time?
BapDada has told you before that you are the elevated
souls who are the images of support for the world. Would
such images of support, who continue to depend upon time
or any other support, still be called images of support,
or those who are dependent? So, check whether, as a soul
who is an image of support for the world, you are not
moving along with any other support. Apart from being an
image who has the support of the one Father, check that
you are not a soul who is moving along on the basis of
limited support of anyone else? You have promised that
you will only have the one Support, but what is the
practical form? What would be the practical experience
of having only the one Support? Those who constantly
have the one imperishable Support will constantly
experience themselves as having stepped away from the
iron-aged impure world. The boat of life of such souls
has left the shores of the iron-aged world. They would
constantly experience being beyond the iron-aged, impure
attraction of vices. No iron-aged attraction can pull
them. Through science, people are able to go very far
into space, beyond the pull of gravity. Being pulled by
any type of attraction of the body, bodily relations or
physical possessions is the practical proof of some type
of support, because a temporary support gives temporary,
short-term attainment. That is, it is perishable and
only for a short time. Many of you say that you have
little experience of having remembrance or of receiving
power; you experience a form of power, but not always.
Why is this? It is definitely because of your taking one
or another limited support, instead of the one Support.
As the support shakes, so you also shake; you are in a
state of upheaval. So, check your support! Do you know
how to check this? You need to have a divine and
powerful intellect to check yourself. If you are not
able to do this yourself, check yourself with the
co-operation of souls who have powerful intellects.
As soon as each Brahmin soul took birth, BapDada gave
that one a powerful and divine intellect and a divine
eye as a blessing for his birth. Or, you can say that
all Brahmins have received a birthday gift from the
Father. Do you know how to look after your birthday
gift? If you always use this gift accurately, you remain
constantly like a lotus, that is, you can remain stable
in the stage that is like a lotus seat. Do you
understand what you have to check? To what extent have
all your sense organs become lotus like? Those who
become like a lotus will remain constantly beyond any
attraction, that is, they will remain constantly
cheerful. If you are attracted to something, you are not
able to remain cheerful. Now, take your intellect away
from all those things. Let what you say and what you do
be the same. Be those who fulfil their promise, not
those who just make a promise. Achcha.
To those who constantly consider themselves to be images
of support by having all relationships with the one
Father and no one else, to the powerful souls who are
not dependent upon time but who consider themselves to
be powerful, to the souls who are free from bondage, to
the constantly yogyukt souls, BapDada's love,
remembrance and namaste.
BapDada meeting groups:
Are the Pandavas and Shaktis both on the battlefield?
Are you continuing to progress by gaining victory in
your battle? Victorious souls constantly experience the
happiness of their victory. Those who are victorious
don't experience waves of sorrow. Sorrow is experienced
when there is defeat. Victorious jewels remain
constantly happy and cheerful. Let there not be a scene
of sorrow coming even in your dreams, that is, let there
not be any feeling of sorrow. Even in dreams one can
experience sorrow. Sometimes, when you have seen such a
scene, there are dreams of sorrow, are there not? When
your dreams are filled with happiness, you would
definitely be an embodiment of happiness in the
corporeal form. In singing praise of your virtues, would
you say, "An embodiment of happiness" or "An embodiment
of sorrow"? Since the eternal form of the soul is of
happiness, how could there be sorrow? When you move away
from your eternal form, you experience sorrow. So, do
you feel that you have put sorrow aside? Even whilst
listening to the sorrows of others, you should not
experience any sorrow because you know that this is the
world of sorrow. For you, the world of sorrow is over.
For you, this is the benevolent age of the ascending
stage. Even in your thoughts, you have raised your
anchor and left the world of sorrow behind. If you are
pulled towards relatives who cause sorrow or stressful
situations for you, you should then understand that
there are still subtle strings of sorrow. Have all the
subtle strings broken or are there still some left?
Being pulled by these is the sign or recognition of the
strings. If strings are tying you down, you cannot then
move ahead. If you have not yet left the shores of the
world of sorrow behind, you are not part of the
confluence age; you are in between the iron and the
confluence ages. You are neither here nor there; so what
would your state be then? Sometimes, here and sometimes,
there. You would not experience your intellect being
stabilised in one place. Do you like wandering? Since
you do not like it, then finish it! Constantly be stable
in your form of happiness. When you speak, speak words
of happiness; think of matters of happiness and see the
soul, an embodiment of happiness. If you look at the
body, consider it to be made up of the final elements
filled with vices. This is why you should see the soul,
an embodiment of happiness. You need to have such a
practice. The golden-aged deities are not aware of the
word, "sorrow". If you were to ask them something of
this, they would say, "Is there such a thing as sorrow?"
You have to develop these sanskars at this time. Create
such sanskars that you no longer have any knowledge of
the word, "sorrow". As you have attainment, there is no
effort required. Making effort for a few years in one
birth to create the sanskars of ruling is not a big
deal. It is just a little effort for a short time to
create sanskars for a period of 5000 years. The
obstacles that come will not harm you because they are
just coming to bid you farewell. However, if they stay
with you, there is a loss. Let them come and go. Do not
let obstacles sit down with you as your guests. You now
need to make such effort that the obstacles simply come
and go away. If you allow obstacles to become your
guests time and again, that will then become a habit.
They will then feel at home with you. Therefore, let
them come and let them go. Do you feel mercy for Maya
because she has been your guest for half a cycle? Now,
do not feel mercy.
Even now, you can experience the pilgrimage of
remembrance even more deeply. Everyone speaks about this
and stays in remembrance, but you now have to increase
the attainment of remembrance. By giving more time for
this and paying more attention to this you will truly
feel yourself to be submerged in the ocean of
experience. Just as where there is purity, you feel an
atmosphere of peace, so elevated yogis are also those
who remain deeply absorbed in love. Let there be this
experience. Only when you experience this will there be
an impact of knowledge and the success of yoga. Just as
you go to the depths of the physical ocean, so too, go
deep into the ocean of experience. Have a new experience
every day. Let there be attention paid to the pilgrimage
of remembrance.
Be introspective and continue to move forward. Even that
is lacking. At present, there isn't the impact of being
lost in remembrance while doing service. There is the
impact of just serving. You now need to have the stage
of being a constant yogi. Become engrossed in inventing
a method for this; run a race that has never been run
before. Run the race of the experience of the pilgrimage
of remembrance. Those who conduct yoga camps have a very
good chance to do this. You only have the one duty and
none other. Through this you can easily become free from
obstacles and the atmosphere can also change. When
everyone is busy with the self, there is no time to look
at or listen to others or to become weak due to
obstacles. Make such plans that everyone is lost in the
self; whether it is the intoxication of the corporeal,
alokik life or attainments, remain absorbed in this. Do
not get caught up in any atmosphere and then spread such
a wave.
Blessing:
May you be constantly happy and remain free from limited
desires and go beyond all questions.
The children who remain free from limited desires have a
sparkle of happiness visible on their faces. Those who
are happy-hearted will never have any questions in any
situation. They will experience everyone to be always
altruistic and innocent (free from blame); they will not
blame anyone else. No matter what situations arise, even
if souls continue to come in front of them to settle
their karmic accounts, even if the suffering of karma
through the body continues to come in front of them,
they will always remain happy because of their
contentment.
Slogan:
Check your wastage with attention, not with carelessness.
