The qualifications of the fortunate children of God.
BapDada is seeing the lines of fortune on the foreheads of all the children. There are lines of fortune on the forehead of each one of you children, but the lines of some children are clear, whereas the lines of others are not clear, from the time that you belonged to God, the Father. God means the Bestower of Fortune, God means the Lawmaker. This is why when you become the children, all of you children definitely attain the right to claim your fortune, that is, your inheritance. However, you become numberwise in using in your life the inheritance you have received, using it for service and making it elevated and clear, because the more you use the fortune for yourself and in service, accordingly it increases, that is, the line becomes clear. The Father is the One and He gives the same to everyone. The Father doesn’t distribute fortune numberwise, but those who are creating their fortune, that is, those who are to become fortunate, because of being according to capacity in attaining such a great fortune, become numberwise. This is why the lines of some are clear and the lines of others are not clear. Children who have a clear line experience themselves to be fortunate in every action. As well as this, others also experience their fortune through their face and their activity. Others who see such fortunate children think and say: These souls are very fortunate – their fortune is always elevated. Ask yourself: Do I experience myself to be a child of Bhagwan (God), that is, bhagyavan (fortunate), in every action? Fortune is your inheritance. It is not possible that you don’t receive your inheritance. Do you experience your fortune as your inheritance? Or, do you have to labour? An inheritance is received easily. It doesn’t require labour. In the world also, a child automatically has a right to his father’s treasures and his inheritance. And he has that intoxication that he has received his father’s inheritance. Do you have the intoxication of such fortune, or does it rise and then descend again? You have an imperishable inheritance and so you should have so much intoxication! Not just one birth, but you have the fortune of many births as your birthright. You speak of this with such a great sparkle. Others should always be able to visibly see the sparkle of your fortune. Do you have both the sparkle and the spiritual intoxication? Is it in a merged form or an emerged form? The sign of a fortunate soul is that whether the fortunate soul is constantly being sustained in the lap, whether it walks on the carpet, whether it swings in the swings, it doesn’t set foot in the mud. The feet of such a soul never become dirty. Those people walk on the carpet whereas you, instead of keeping the foot of your intellect on the earth, you stay in the world of angels. You don’t keep the feet of your intellect in this old world of dust, that is, you don’t allow your intellect to become dirty. Fortunate ones don’t play with toys of clay. They always play with jewels. Fortunate souls always remain full. This is why they always have the stage of being completely ignorant of all desires. A fortunate soul becomes a constantly great donor and a charitable soul and continues to create the fortune of others. A fortunate soul always has his crown, throne and tilak. A fortunate soul is a renunciate to the extent that he has a right to the fortune. Renunciation is a sign of fortune. Renunciation makes your fortune very clear. A fortunate soul is always equal to God incorporeal, egoless and viceless – such a soul is always complete with all these three qualifications. Do you experience all these signs in yourselves? You are on the list of those who are fortunate, are you not? However, are you only according to your capacity or are you full with all powers? You are masters, are you not? In praise of the Father, you never say that He is according to capacity or that He is numberwise; you say that He is always full of all powers. If you are master almighty authorities, ones with all powers, then why do you become according to capacity? You are always those with all powers. Change the words “according to capacity” and become those who are always full of all powers and make others the same also. Do you understand?
Which zones have come? All of you have reached the land of blessings and are filling your aprons with blessings, are you not? Every activity and every action of the land of blessings is filled with a special blessing. When you come onto this land of the sacrificial fire, then whether you cut vegetables, whether you clean the grain, these too are filled with blessings of service of the yagya. For instance, when people go on a pilgrimage, they consider cleaning the temple to be an act of great charity. At this great pilgrimage, or on this land of blessings, every action and every step is filled with nothing but blessings. How much of your apron have you filled? Will you go back having filled your aprons completely, or only according to capacity? From wherever all of you have come, you have come to celebrate the mela. In Madhuban, not one thought or one second should go to waste. This practice of becoming powerful here will help you at your own places. The study and the family. Take benefit of the study and also have a special experience of the family. Do you understand?
BapDada is giving congratulations to those of all the zones for becoming the bestowers of blessings and the great donors. The people’s festival has now ended, whereas you constantly have the festival filled with enthusiasm. You constantly have a great day. This is why you have congratulations and nothing but congratulations every day. Maharashtra is such that you become great and always fill your aprons with blessings to make others great. Those from Karnataka always remain cheerful. With your cheerful face, also make others cheerful. Continue to fill your aprons. What will those from U.P. do? You will always give the blessing of coolness like the cool rivers, become the goddesses of coolness and make them into the goddesses of coolness. With that coolness, always continue to remove all the types of sorrow of everyone. Fill their aprons with such blessings. Achcha.
To those who always have the clear lines of elevated fortune; to those who are always full with all powers, the same as the Father; to those who remain stable in the perfect stage; to those who always have the Godly sparkle and who maintain the spiritual intoxication of their fortune; to those who become fortunate through their every action and enable others to claim their inheritance of fortune, to such elevated fortunate master god children, BapDada’s love, remembrance and namaste. Achcha.
What special thing will all of you do at each service centre this year? BapDada goes on a tour of each of the centres and sees the classes. He looks at the regular students, those who come only sometimes, and those who are in contact. Whilst seeing all of these this year Baba is giving the aim that at each centre, there should be every type of variety. There should be lawyers, judges, doctors and scientists etc. There should also be those of all religions. There should be a maximum of every type of variety, but no matter how many there are, there should be at least one person of every occupation at every centre. There should be students, old people, youth and also little children. There should be a variety of every type. There should also be couples from families. When you take out the results, you look at the variety in terms of the age, and then you also take up the different professions in terms of service. There should not be people of any occupation missing. This is called a variety bouquet. There should not be a single type of flower missing in terms of colour and beauty. Each centre should create such a population and the more you increase the numbers, the higher your number will be. This year prepare students of such a variety. No matter which class someone goes to, he should be able to see those of all types of occupation, and that one should then definitely serve his equals so that the number increases and there is also a variety. But, you serve the VIPs anyway. In that, you have to make an addition. BapDada had told you that they shouldn’t come just to listen to you, but to take something from you. They should become something before returning from here. It shouldn’t be that they say that they heard it and enjoyed it very much, but that they go back having become something, they go back carrying something with them. The more you continue to increase the service of the VIPs, the louder the sound will be heard. The sound is gradually getting louder. However, on one side, there is a louder sound, it is not as loud everywhere, and so the loud sound on one side becomes drowned. When there is a loud sound from all directions, the drums of victory will be beaten. When the drums of victory are beaten, they go around in all directions. The sound is spread in all directions. So, do you understand what you have to do in service? Maintain your original stage and also progress in service. Your original stage is the easy means and method for progressing in service. Without progress in your own stage, the progress in service cannot be imperishable and free from obstacles, therefore, there should be balance of both. Don’t put aside progress of the self and concentrate on just progress in service. Do both together. Otherwise, whoever you become instruments for also become weak. They also have to work very hard, and therefore, whilst constantly keeping progress of the self and progress in service simultaneous, continue to fly.
BapDada meeting groups:
Kumars: Kumars means free from bondage. The biggest bondage of all is that of waste thoughts in the mind. Become free from this bondage too. This bondage doesn’t sometimes bind you, does it? Because thoughtpower is the basis of income at every step. On what basis do you do the pilgrimage of remembrance? You reach Baba on the basis of your thoughtpower, do you not? You become bodiless. So, the power of the mind is special. Waste thoughts make the power of the mind weak. Therefore, remain free from this bondage. A kumar means one who is constantly an intense effortmaker because those who are free from bondage would automatically have a fast speed. Those who have a burden would move along at a slow speed. Those who are light would always move fast. Now, according to the time, the time for effort has gone by. You now have to become an intense effortmaker and reach your destination.
Have you Kumars finished your old accounts of the waste? The new account is the account of the powerful. The old account is of waste. So, the old account has finished. In any case, in relationships, you never keep old accounts. You finish the old accounts and continue to move forward and increase the new account. So here too, you finish the old account and you constantly have the newest of all, the powerful, at every step. Let your every thought be powerful. As is the Father, so are the children. The Father is all Powerful and so children also follow the Father and become powerful.
The mothers: In which one virtue are the mothers especially experienced? What is that special virtue? (Renunciation, tolerance.) Are there any other virtues? The form of the mothers is specially that of being merciful. Mothers are merciful. Do you unlimited mothers feel mercy for the unlimited souls? What do you do when you feel mercy? Those who are merciful cannot stay without serving others. When you become merciful many souls are automatically benefited. This is why the mothers are also called the benevolent ones. Benevolent means those who benefit others. Just as the Father is the World Benefactor, so too, the mothers have also been given the special title of being benevolent, equal to the Father. Do you have such enthusiasm? What have you become from what you were? With the transformation of the self, you also feel zeal and enthusiasm for others. Do you have balance between limited and unlimited service? Your accounts are settled with that service and the other is limited service. You are unlimited servers. The more zeal and enthusiasm you have for service, the more success there will be.
Mothers have become instruments to benefit the world through their renunciation and tapasya. Mothers have the speciality of renunciation and tapasya. Do you remain busy in being the instruments for service with these two specialities and making others belong to the Father? The duty of the confluenceaged Brahmins is to do service. Brahmins cannot remain without doing service, just as those brahmins in name also definitely have the gatherings where they read the stories. So, here too, to tell stories means to do service. So, become a world mother and think about the world. Think about the unlimited children. Don’t just sit at home; become the unlimited servers and constantly continue to move forward. You spent 63 births in the limited; now move forward in the unlimited service. Achcha.
Blessing: May you be a detached observer and by taking power from the Father, find a solution to every adverse situation.
You children know that after the extreme, there has to be the end. So, every type of upheaval will go to its extreme, there will be conflict in the family, there will be many types of confusion in your mind, there will be fluctuation with your wealth. However, for those who are the Father’s companions, for those who are truthful, the Father is responsible. At such a time, if your mind is directed towards the Father, you will be able to overcome everything with the power of decisionmaking. Become a detached observer and with the Father’s power, you will easily be able to find a solution to every situation.
Slogan: Now, put aside all supports and make preparations to return home.
