"Astrologer of spiritual knowledge and yoga."

Did all of you call BapDada, or did BapDada call all of you? Who called whom? Those children who are the instruments in the Father’s task have to remember one aspect at all times: We have to remain ever-ready and all-rounders at every moment in every situation. If these two things are imbibed by all of you, the result of service can then become very elevated. However, these aspects are numberwise according to effort. You children who are the instruments have to remember the slogan : Whatever actions I perform, others who see me will perform the same actions. At every moment consider yourself to be playing a part in the drama on the stage in front of everyone. One is to rehearse by yourself and the other is to play a part on the stage in front of everyone. And so, imagine how much attention those who act their part on a stage pay to themselves. They have to pay attention to themselves at every moment whilst performing each act . They have to pay attention to their hands, their feet, their eyes, to everything. If anything is not right, it doesn’t give beauty to the act of the actor . So you have to see yourself accordingly as you move along.

When a three minute record is being recorded, so much attention is paid to it. All of you are recording your record for 21 births, and so there should be so much attention paid at the time of recording it. If there is the slightest fluctuation in the record , it is spoilt for all time. Your record for the kingdom of the golden age is being recorded for 21 births, and so that shouldn’t be spoilt. If it is spoilt, you distance yourself. Therefore, you should think: Everyone’s vision is on your every action. When actors are aware that everyone is watching them, they pay special attention to themselves. When there isn’t anyone observing them, there is carelessness. So always think that even when you are doing something by yourself, you are in front of the world. The souls of the entire world are watching you from everywhere.

If each flower were to become so perfect and beautiful, the fragrance of this garden would spread so much, but what is the reason why it doesn’t spread? Together with the fragrance, in some cases, there is also something else that comes in-between. No matter how much fragrance there may be, a bad odour spreads even faster than fragrance, and so the slightest matter finishes all the fragrance. A rose is said to have an eternal fragrance. One is an eternal rose, second is a rose, and the third is a spiritual rose. The first number is the spiritual rose. That one remains in the stage of a spirit and is always close to a spirit. Such is a spiritual rose. The second quality are very good in service , but they lack in the spiritual stage. They are good in service and in their dharna and their sanskars are cool. What do you consider yourself to be? Which number flower are you? There cannot be any thorns here. All are roses, but there is a difference in the roses. What are the signs of those who are spiritual roses?

Do you know how to judge the line on the forehead? Have you become fortune tellers (astrologers) or not? What do you see in the horoscope of knowledge and yoga that BapDada teaches you? You can tell from each one’s face, eyes and forehead and, in that, you can also especially tell everything from someone’s forehead and eyes. Can you become fortune tellers and recognise anyone? Those lines are definitely there in the eyes and on the forehead. Knowledge of astrology is needed to discern someone. This knowledge of discerning others is lacking in some of you. You learn knowledge and yoga, but you also have to know the knowledge of discerning others. When anyone comes in front of you, you should be able to know about his three aspects of time in one second . 1) What was his life in the past . 2) What is his vision and attitude like at present. 3) To what extent can he create his reward in the future? You need to practise to know this. This knowledge of recognising others is lacking a lot. You now have to remove this weakness. If you do not have this virtue in the time that is yet to come, if it is lacking, you will be deceived. Many such souls will come in front of you who are internally one thing and externally something else. They will come to test you because many think that this is just something that you have learnt by heart. So they will come to you in various form, in many colours and artificial forms in order to judge you. Therefore, you must pay attention to what each one comes for and what his attitude is like. You have to be very cautious with impure souls. Day by day, there will be many such cases . There are many sinful souls. Calamities, untimely death and sinful actions are increasing, and so because their desires are not fulfilled, they wander around as impure souls, and you therefore have to be very cautious about this. When an impure soul has entered someone else, a special dhoop (incense) stick is lit to chase it away; something is heated in a fire and that person is touched with it. Or, that person is even fed red chilli powder. So all of you have to do everything with the power of yoga. You have to heat up each of your physical organs with the fire of yoga so that no one can attack you. If there is the slightest slackness, if any of your physical organs become weak, it can enter you. Those impure souls are also very powerful . That power of Maya is no less. You have to pay a lot of attention to this. Even the natural calamities will do their own work. In order to confront them you need to imbibe Godly power into yourself. At that time, you must not have love for it. At that time, you need to be an embodiment of power. You have to think about when you need to be an embodiment of love and when you need to be an embodiment of power. There is a need to be an embodiment of power in all these aspects. If such a person comes and you show him extra love, that can also then cause damage. You have to have love for BapDada and the divine family, but you have to face all the rest, with the form of power. Some children make mistakes and they are attracted by their love. That love increases and makes you weak, and there is therefore now the need to be an embodiment of power.

The praise that is remembered is of the slogan: The mother of Bharat is the incarnation of power. They do not say ‘Gopi Mata’, the loving mother. It is now the part of being an embodiment of power. The form of the gopikas existed in the corporeal form. Now, in the avyakt form, it is the part of the Shaktis. When each one of you is stable in being an embodiment of power, the power of all of you put together will show wonders. What is the last picture shown as a memorial? Giving a finger of co-operation to lift a mountain. You have to give the finger of power. Only through that will the mountain of the iron age be destroyed. Everyone’s finger is needed for that. That finger is not yet given fully. You lift that finger, but some people’s finger is sometimes straight and some people’s finger is sometimes bent. When you give your whole finger, there will be an impact from you. All of you have to give a finger to the same extent. You must quickly give a finger to lift this mountain of the iron age and bring about the golden-aged world.

You have love for the corporeal form and so you must quickly make preparations to go from this old world. You might say that service is not yet done, but what is service waiting for? If all of you become stable in being an embodiment of power, then all your long-lost and wandering devotees will be attracted to the Magnet against their wish and come. It will not take long. Achcha.
