01 August 2021 ENGLISH Murli Today | Brahma Kumaris

Today, BapDada is seeing His spiritual chatrak (thirsty) children. Each child is thirsty to listen to the Father, to have a meeting with Him and to become equal to Him. By listening to Him, the thirst you have had for birth after birth is quenched. Souls thirsty for the nectar of knowledge become fully satisfied souls. Listening to Him, souls also become embodiments of knowledge, the same as the Father. Or, it can be said that by listening to the gyan murli, they become murlidhar children. While celebrating a spiritual meeting, they become merged in the Father’s love. While celebrating a meeting, they become “loveleen” (absorbed in love) and have a stage of being totally lost in love. While celebrating a meeting, they are lost in the experience of belonging to the one Father and none other. While celebrating a meeting, they are free from obstacles and they become red (their faces glow) with the colour of the Father’s company. When they are merged in this way and absorbed in love, what desire do they have? To become equal to the Father. They become those who place every step of theirs in the Father’s footsteps, that is, those who become equal to the Father. Just as the Father’s form is always that of the Almighty Authority, in the same way, the children also become those who are always master embodiments of all powers. Whatever the Father’s form is – always almighty, always light – the children also become like that.

You know what special things you need in order to become equal, do you not, in which things you have to become equal to the Father? You are becoming that and you have become that. As is the Father’s name, so the children’s name is the same. World benefactors is your name, is it not? Whatever is the Father’s form is the children’s form. Whatever are the Father’s virtues are the children’s virtues. Only those who imbibe every one of the Father’s virtues become equal to the Father. Whatever is the Father’s task, that is also the children’s task. You have to become equal to the Father in every respect. That is everyone’s aim, is it not? You are not those who stay personally in front of the Father, but those who become equal to Him. This is known as being those who follow the Father. So check to what extent you have become equal to the Father in all respects. From the beginning, the Father gave you children the blessing of becoming equal. From the beginning, the blessing has been: “May you be full of all powers.” In lokik life, a father or guru gives blessings: May you be wealthy! May you have a son! May you have a long life! May you always be happy! These are the blessings they give. What blessing has BapDada given? May you be constantly full of the wealth of knowledge and the wealth of all powers! These are the treasures of Brahmin life.

To live from the moment you took your Brahmin birth to the end of the task of the establishment of the confluence age means to have a long life. If you leave Brahmin life and go back to the old sanskars and the old world in between, that is said to have taken birth, but to have had a short lifespan because you have died from Brahmin life. Some are such that, while leading this life, they go into a coma; it is almost like not living this life. Sometimes, they do wake up, but that living is just like having died. So, “May you have a long life” means always to live your Brahmin life from the beginning to the end and to live with all the attainments of the elevated, divine life. Along with a long lifespan, the blessing of “May you be free from disease” is also essential. If you have a long lifespan, but the illness of Maya repeatedly makes you weak, then that living is not living. So, along with “May you have a long lifespan”, you also have to remain constantly healthy, that is, you also have to remain free from obstacles. Do not repeatedly become confused or lifeless on the bed of a disheartened stage. Those who are ill are bedridden. You can finish small problems while walking and moving around. However, when a big problem comes and you become confused or disheartened, what is the condition of your mind then? When your body is bedridden, you don’t feel like getting up, walking about, eating or drinking. In the same way, here too, you will sit for yoga but your heart won’t be in it and you will listen to knowledge, but not with your heart. You won’t serve with your heart. You will do it superficially, out of fear or because of what other people think. This would not be called a constantly healthy life. So, “May you have a long lifespan” means “May you be free from disease.”

“May you have a son” or “May you have children.” Do you have children? Have you not created two to four children? You have the blessing of, “May you have children”, do you not? You don’t receive a blessing of having just two to four children but, when you become stable in the stage of a master creator, like the Father’s, then all of this feels like your creation. Become an unlimited master creator. This becomes an unlimited blessing: “May you have a son”, “May you have children”. It is not limited in that you have created two to four students and so they are yours; no. The stage of a master creator is an unlimited stage. By being stable in the stage of a world benefactor, you consider all souls and the elements of nature to be your creation and you have good wishes and pure feelings of benevolence for them. These are the feelings that a creator has for his creation. When you become unlimited master creators, no limited attraction can attract you. Where will you constantly see yourselves standing? Just as the creator of a tree is its seed and when the tree reaches its final stage, the seed reaches the top of the tree, in the same way, an unlimited master creator will constantly experience the self to be standing at the top of the kalpa tree. While standing with the Father at the top of the tree, you will be a master seed and spread rays of powers, virtues, good wishes and pure feelings, love and co-operation. Just as when the sun is high, it is automatically able to spread its rays over the whole world, in the same way, you can become master creators and master seeds and give the whole tree rays and water. So, how many children do you have? The whole world is your creation, is it not? So, “May you be a master creator.” This is known as, “May you have children.” So, you have so many blessings. This is known as becoming equal to the Father. The Father gives every Brahmin soul these blessings as soon as they take birth. You have received the blessings, have you not? Or, are you still to receive them?

When anyone receives a blessing, along with the blessing, he is also told the method with which to use that blessing. If you don’t use this method, you are unable to take the benefit of the blessing. So, all of you have received blessings and you are able to increase every blessing by using it in the right way. How can you make it grow? The easiest and most elevated method to use for that is to be aware of the blessing at the right time. By having this in your awareness, you will become powerful and become an embodiment of success. The more you use it at the right time, the more it will continue to grow, that is, the more you will continue to experience the fruit of that blessing. You have received such elevated and powerful blessings and you can attain the fruit of them, not by just using them for yourself, but also by enabling other souls to become worthy of receiving blessings from the Father, the Bestower of Blessings. These blessings of the confluence age stay with you for 21 births in a different way. Their form at the confluence age is different, but these same blessings continue for 21 births in your lives. However, the time to experience the Bestower of Blessings and the blessings is now. So, check: Am I using all the blessings and easily moving forward?

The speciality of a blessing is that the one who receives the blessing never has to labour. When devotee souls become tired, having laboured so much, they ask the Father for blessings. When people come to you and they don’t want to make the effort to have yoga, what language do they use? They say: Simply give me a blessing. Put your hand over my head. You Brahmin children constantly have the hand of the Father, the Bestower of Blessings, over you. Elevated directions are His hand. He would not place a physical hand over you for 24 hours, would He? The hand of blessings of the Father’s elevated directions is constantly over you children. From amrit vela till the moment you go to sleep at night, in every breath, in every thought and in every action, you have the hand of elevated directions. Continue to use this blessing in the right way and you will never have to labour.

It is remembered of the deities: they are ignorant of the knowledge of desire. This is the speciality of an angelic life. In a deity life, there is no question of desires. A Brahmin life becomes an angelic life, that is, you attain the karmateet stage. To perform any action – impure, wasteful, sinful or any action of the past – by being tied in bondage by that karma would not be said to be the karmateet stage. One is the relationship of karma and the other is bondage. So, just as there is the praise, “ignorant of the knowledge of limited desires”, in the same way, an angelic life or a Brahmin life means to be ignorant of the knowledge of the word “difficult” and of any burden. You are not even aware of what that is. A soul who has received these blessings is one who experiences ignorance of the knowledge of the word “difficult” in his life. Such a soul is called a blessed soul. So, to become equal to the Father means to be constantly sustained with the blessings you receive from the Bestower of Fortune and to remain constantly carefree and to experience guaranteed victory.

Some children make very good effort. However, to experience pressure in your effort is not accurate effort. To pay attention is the method of Brahmin life. However, attention changes into tension. It is not called accurate attention when there isn’t natural attention. For instance, you know about the physical things in your life, such as, “This is not good”, “This should be done”, “That should not be done.” The sign of those who are knowledge-full on the basis of knowledge is that they have natural attention: “I can eat this; I cannot eat that. I can do this; I cannot do that.” They don’t have tension at every step over whether they should do something or not, whether they should eat something or not, whether they should conduct themselves in that way or not. They have natural attention with the power of knowledge. In this way, an accurate effort-maker will have natural attention at every step and in every action because the light and might of knowledge automatically makes him move accurately in the right way. So, you may make effort. Definitely pay attention, but not in the form of tension. When you have tension, then, although you want to do a lot of work or you want to become number one, the tension doesn’t allow you to do as much as you want, it doesn’t allow you to become what you want to, and tension creates more tension. Because what you want is not happening, your tension increases.

So, all of you make effort, but some people make effort a little heavily and others become completely careless. “Whatever is to happen will happen. We shall see about it. Who is watching? Who is listening?” None of those is good. Therefore, keep a balance and experience blessings from the Father. Always keep in your awareness the experience of having the Father’s hand constantly over you. Just as devotees keep a physical picture in front of them, feeling that that is the hand of blessing over their heads, so, you too can always keep in your awareness, the picture of this experience of your intellect, while you are walking and moving around. Do you understand? You have made a lot of effort. Now continue to be sustained with blessings and fly. You have experienced the Father as the Bestower of Knowledge and the Bestower of Fortune. Now experience Him as the Bestower of Blessings. Achcha.

To those who constantly follow the Father at every step, to those who experience themselves to be the elevated souls who are blessed by the Father, the Bestower of Blessings, to those who easily overcome every obstacle, to those who constantly use every blessing at the right time, to the elevated souls who become equal to the Father, love, remembrance and namaste from BapDada, in the form of the Bestower of Blessings.

BapDada meeting the main senior brothers:

You have received so many blessings from birth. Each one of you has received your own blessings. You have taken birth with blessings. Otherwise, today, you wouldn’t have moved forward so much. You have taken birth with blessings and this is why you are moving forward. The praise of the Pandavas is not a small thing. If we were to speak of each one’s speciality, there are so many, the Bhagwad that is created would be created (speaking at length of each one’s specialities). The Father has each one’s speciality in His vision. While seeing anything else, He does not see it, while knowing anything else, He is not aware of it. So, the speciality is constantly making you move forward and will continue to do so. Those souls who are blessed from birth can never move backwards. You are the blessed souls who will be constantly flying. The blessings from the Father, the Bestower of Blessings, are making you move forward. The Pandavas remain incognito, but you are always revealed in the Father’s heart. It is the Pandavas who make the good plans. The Shaktis hunt the prey, but it is the wonder of those who bring the prey to them. If they didn’t bring the prey, who would they hunt? This is why the Pandavas have their special blessing. You have received the special power of remembrance and service. You receive special power of remembrance and you also receive special power of service. Why? The reason for this is that those who came at a time of need have received a special blessing. When establishment first took place, you Pandavas were merged; you hadn’t emerged. The Shaktis became examples and when you saw their examples you moved forward. So, they became examples at a time of need. This is why, to the extent that souls become co-operative at a time of need, whether with their lives or by doing service, according to the drama, they receive special power. There are of course their own efforts, but they also receive extra power. Achcha.

To the Dadis:

You also receive a lot of power from the souls who become happy when you have served them. There is a need for the service of experienced souls because when people see those who have taken sustenance from the corporeal form, they are always reminded of the Father. Whenever you (Dadis) go anywhere, what do they especially ask you? “Tell us stories. Tell us some things about Baba.” So, that is a speciality, is it not? This is why you have received a blessing of the speciality of service. Even if you don’t stand on a stage and give lectures, this is the biggest lecture. To relate the divine activities and to give inspiration to make their characters divine is the greatest service of all. So, you have to go on service and you definitely have to become instruments for service. Achcha.
