Methods to transform your vision and attitude.
Today, BapDada is looking at the gathering of all the effort-makers. All the knowledge is merged in the word "effort-maker" (pursharathi). The word "pursharathi" means "purush" (being, master) and rathi (charioteer). Charioteer of what? Master of what? To be a master of matter, that is, the charioteer of the chariot. What would happen if you were to stabilise in the meaning of just this one word? You would easily be able to overcome all weaknesses. The master has all rights over matter and is not subservient to it. The charioteer drives the chariot; he does not move along whilst being subservient to the chariot. One who has all rights has all rights to all the powers of the Almighty Authority Father, that is, he has a right to the inheritance and has all rights over it. All the powers are the Father's property and every child has a right to that property. BapDada gives all of you the fortune of the kingdom of all powers as your birthright. As soon as you took birth, you were given the self-sovereignty of all powers, the tilak of the awareness of being one with all rights and the heart-throne for having the form of one absorbed in love for the Father. As soon as you took birth, each of you was given the crown of service for world benefit. So, all of you have the birthright of the throne, the tilak, the crown and the kingdom, do you not? Can souls who are embodiments of the attainment of these four things be weak? Are you not able to look after these four attainments? Sometimes, the tilak is erased, sometimes you get off the throne and sometimes, instead of wearing your crown, you carry a burden. You carry a basket of useless, wasteful things. You are called self-sovereigns, but instead of being a sovereign of yourself, you become a subservient subject. Why do you play such games? If you continue with such games, when would your original sanskars of claiming the right to the fortune of the kingdom become imperishable? If you continue with such games, what is your attainment going to be? How can someone who is unable to make his original sanskars imperishable claim a right to the kingdom of the beginning? If you have the sanskars of a warrior for a long period of time, that is, if you spend your time battling, if you are victorious today but are defeated tomorrow, if you gain victory one moment but are defeated at the next moment, if you don't have the sanskars of being victorious all the time, would you then be called a warrior or a Brahmin? It is Brahmins who become deities. Warriors will then go and become warriors. There is a difference between the symbol of deities and the symbol of warriors. In the memorial pictures, one has a bow and arrow and the other has a flute. The one with a flute became a master flute player (murlidhar), so that, instead of being poisoned by the snake of vices, he removed all the poison and made the snake into a bed. There is such a vast difference between a poisonous snake and a snake that becomes a bed. How was such transformation brought about? With the flute. Only those who bring about such transformation are called victorious Brahmins. So, ask yourself: Who am I?
All of you have revealed your weaknesses with honesty. You will receive marks for that honesty, but BapDada saw that, even now, you haven't yet developed the power to transform your own sanskars. So, when will you become world transformers? When will the transformation of your vision and attitude become imperishable? You are observers who observe everything with your vision. So, why do you allow your vision to become mischievous? Do you look at everything with your divine eye or with gross eyes? When you look with your divine eye, you will constantly only see the divine form. Gross eyes will only see the skin. Whose job is it to look at the skin and to think about the skin? Is it the work of angels? Of Brahmins? Of self-sovereigns who have all rights? So, are you Brahmins? Who are you? Should Baba even speak that name?
Always see every embodied soul, every woman, in the form of a Shakti, a world mother or a goddess. This is what it means to see with divine vision. She may be a kumari, a mother, a sister or an instrument who is your teacher, a server, but who is she? She is a form of a Shakti. Even in the relationship between brother and sister, the attitude and vision can sometimes become mischievous. Therefore, always see her in the form of a Shakti, a Shiv-Shakti. What would the condition be of someone with a devilish intention who comes in front of a Shakti? You know that, do you not? She is not just your teacher, but a Shiv-Shakti. She is your spiritual sister. However, even beyond that, see her as a Shiv-Shakti. You mothers and sisters should also remain constantly stable in your form of a Shiv-Shakti. Don’t think, "This one is my special brother or my special student." Sisters are Shiv-Shaktis and you are mahavirs. You are those who will burn Lanka, but you first of all have to burn the progeny of Ravan within yourself. What is the speciality of Mahavir (Hanuman) that they show? What does he constantly show in his heart? One Rama and no one else. You have seen the picture of this, have you not? So, every brother is a mahavir and every sister is a Shakti. Mahavir belongs to Rama and Shakti belongs to Shiva. Whilst looking at any bodily being, always look at the soul in the forehead. Are you going to speak to the soul or the body? Whilst carrying out any activity, is it the soul or the body that is doing it? Constantly see the soul in the body at every second. Let your vision fall on the jewel in the forehead. What will happen then? When the soul sees the soul, he will automatically become soul conscious. This is the first lesson, is it not? If you don't make the first lesson of Alpha firm, how would you receive beta, the kingdom? Simply remain cautious about one thing. Whatever you have to do, you have to perform elevated actions and become elevated. So, become one who has determination about everything. No matter what you have to tolerate or face, you have to perform elevated actions and bring about elevated transformation. Don't use the word “effort” in a careless way. "I am an effort-maker. I am moving along. I am doing what I can. I have to do it." This is the language of carelessness. At that moment, stabilise in the meaning of the word “effort”. Matter cannot deceive its master. All these types of weakness are signs of carelessness. Mahavir holds a mountain on his palm and he flies with it in a second. That is, he makes a mountain as light as water. What are all those trivial matters? Such mahavirs would be called those who are even afraid of ants. "What can I do? This happens even against my wish." Are these the words of a mahavir? A sensible person wouldn’t say, "What can I do? Thieves come." A sensible person wouldn’t be deceived repeatedly. It is a careless person who would be deceived repeatedly. If you have the means of safety but don’t use them, what can be said? "I know that this shouldn’t happen, but it does happen." What kind of sense would you say this is?
Be one with determination. I have to bring about transformation - not tomorrow, but today; not today, but now! This is called being a mahavir who obeys Rama. Today, it is the day for a meeting, but because you children have made effort, Baba has to give you the response of your efforts. However, are you going to take these weaknesses back with you? You are not going to take back anything you have already given away, are you? You mustn't allow it to come back to you even if it comes back to you forcefully. Would you allow an enemy to come? Attention and checking are the double lock. Remembrance and service are the second double-lock. All of you have these, do you not? Therefore, constantly have these double locks applied. Apply the lock on both sides. Do you understand? Don't just apply it on one side. You have been offered a lot of hospitality in a physical and subtle way. You have received double hospitality. Just as Didi and Dadi and the instrument souls have offered you hospitality from their hearts, so, in return, all of you have to give a guarantee to Didi and Dadi that, from now on you will remain constantly victorious. Don't just say this with your mouths, but say it from your hearts. We shall then see what everyone in this photo is doing after a month. You can hide things from anyone else but you can’t hide anything from the Father. Achcha.
To those who constantly make their thinking and their doing equal with determination, to those who constantly see the form of a soul with your divine eye so that, whoever they look at, they only see the soul, to those effort-making souls who stabilise in the meaning of the word “effort”, BapDada's love, remembrance and namaste.
Become incorporeal, egoless and viceless, the same as the father.
Remember these last three words of Father Brahma: incorporeal, egoless and viceless. Always be incorporeal in your thoughts, detached from all and loving to the Father. Always be egoless in your words, that is, let them always be filled with spiritual sweetness and humility. In your actions be viceless through your physical senses, that is, become those who have the personality of purity. Practise: I, the incorporeal soul, am speaking with the support of the corporeal. Even in the corporeal form, let there be the incorporeal form in your awareness. This is known as speaking and acting whilst being corporeal and incorporeal. Your original form is incorporeal and the corporeal is your support. This double awareness of "incorporeal and corporeal" is a powerful stage. Keep your real. incorporeal form in your awareness and the real virtues and powers of that form will automatically emerge. At the confluence age, experience the karmateet and incorporeal stages, like the father's, and then you will continue to experience the stage of being equal to Father Brahma for the future 21 births, full of all virtues, completely viceless and with an elevated life. The awareness of being a master and a child constantly gives you the experience of the egoless and incorporeal stage. To become a child means that there is a transformation in your limited life. When you become a Brahmin, you learn the first and easiest of all lessons in Brahmin life - children say “Baba.” And the Father says “Child”. The lesson of this one word makes you knowledge-full.
The basis of success in service is the feeling of being an instrument for service. The three specialities of being incorporeal, egoless and viceless automatically come from being an instrument. When there isn’t the consciousness of being an instrument, many types of the consciousness of “I” and “mine” make service become slack. Therefore, let there not be any consciousness of “I” or “mine”. Remember one expression, “I am an instrument”. Only by being an instrument can you remain in the stage of being incorporeal, egoless, humble and free from any other thoughts. Just as by being an instrument, your stage becomes incorporeal, egoless and free from other thoughts, similarly, when you constantly say, “I, I”, there is arrogance, wilting and sadness. The end result of that is that whilst moving along you die, even though you are alive. Therefore, always keep this main teaching with you at all times: I am an instrument. By being an instrument, no type of arrogance will arise in you. You won’t even be caught in the spinning of any difference of opinion.
To the extent that you remain in the incorporeal stage, to that extent you will remain fearless, because fear arises out of the awareness of the body. In order to imbibe the virtue of fearlessness, become incorporeal. The more you remain detached in the incorporeal stage, the more you will experience the stage of a point in your yoga and you will experience the angelic stage whilst you move along. Just as your hands and feet continue to move according to your directions, in the same way, practise becoming incorporeal from corporeal in a second. That is, practise stabilising in your original, incorporeal form and there won’t be any arrogance. Arrogance makes you become one without ornaments. Those who remain stable in the egoless and incorporeal stage and then in the stage of holding all the ornaments can be benefactors for all souls, and those who are benefactors for all claim a right to the kingdom of the world.
You will become an embodiment that grants visions when you are in the incorporeal stage whilst in the physical form. Just as you have had the natural awareness of the form of the body for many births, in the same way, you also need to experience the awareness of your original form over a long time. When this first lesson is completed and you remain in the soul-conscious stage, you will become an instrument to give all souls visions. One is the target to become incorporeal and soul conscious and the other is the target to have a viceless stage, for which you have to make your stage viceless even in your mind. Just as you make effort throughout the day to be a yogi and to remain pure, in the same way, let the goal of being viceless and incorporeal remain constantly in front of you. Your stage will then become karmateet and angelic and no impurity, no attraction of the five elements, will attract you. Immediately order yourself to stabilise in your complete incorporeal, egoless and viceless stage. Let there be no trace of “mine”, “yours” or pride or honour, etc. If there is the slightest trace of those, all their progeny will come. Therefore, let there be no trace of vice even in your thoughts, for only then will these three stages come. The heirs and subjects that are then to emerge from impact of this will emerge quickly. Quick service will be visible.
You now have to go to your incorporeal home. Therefore, as is your land, so should be your costume. So, let your special effort now be to return home and also take everyone else home. By having this awareness, you will easily be able to go beyond all relationships and attractions of all the elements of nature, that is, you will become a detached observer. By becoming a detached observer, you will easily become a companion of the Father and equal to the Father. Every now and then, make time to practise stabilising yourself in the stage of an incorporeal soul, detached from the awareness of the body. No matter what task you are performing, whilst performing that task, practise: I am an incorporeal soul and am performing actions with the support of the physical organs. The incorporeal stage is the stage of being one who gets things done and the physical organs are the doer. The soul is the one that inspires things to be done. So, with the incorporeal stage of soul consciousness, you will automatically remember the incorporeal Father. Throughout the whole day, however many times you say the word “I”, remember “I, the incorporeal soul, have entered the corporeal body.” When you remember your incorporeal stage, you will automatically become egoless and your body consciousness will finish. Remembering the soul makes the incorporeal stage firm. You have already attained the blessing of being incorporeal, egoless and viceless from the Bestower of Blessings.
Now put this blessing into practice. That is, make yourself an embodiment of knowledge, an embodiment of remembrance and an image that grants visions. Let anyone who comes in front of you see the jewel in the forehead, the intense power of your eyes and hear words of blessings emerging from your lips. Only then will revelation take place.
Blessing:
May you be an embodiment of easy success by serving through your words and thoughts at the same time.
To serve with the power of your thoughts at the same time as serving through words is the powerful final service. When you have the combined form of serving through your thoughts and also serving through your words, there will be easy success which will bring about double results. There are a few who serve through words, but all of those who look after things or are engaged in other matters have to serve with their minds. The atmosphere becomes yogyukt through this. Let each one feel, “I have to serve” and the atmosphere will then become powerful and there will be double service.
Slogan:
Remain constantly seated on the seat of a stable stage and you will remain unshakeable and immovable.
