"In order to become a bead of the rosary be victorious."

What is the main aspect that BapDada sees when He looks at the children? Today, BapDada has come to see what transformation each jewel has brought in himself. Today, BapDada has come to see the transformation. Each one has brought about transformation according to his own capacity, but which transformation does BapDada wish to see? You know that, do you not? Together with transformation, BapDada also wishes to see how strong you are in that. BapDada has seen the transformation, but, with the transformation, have you also made it firm in yourself? You call the Father the eternal Truth, so have you brought about eternal transformation with such a Father? The treasures you receive are imperishable and the reward you receive is imperishable, so have you brought about eternal transformation, or are you still thinking that you will find that out when you return to your place? Are you thinking that you don’t know what situations will arise, or whether you will be able to remain firm in facing those? Do you think, “I am going from here having made a promise, but to what extent will I be able to fulfil it?” Firstly, there are those who think this, and, secondly, there are those who have a faithful intellect, that is, those who have full faith in themselves, as well as in the Father, that whatever transformation they have brought about, they will maintain that eternally, and that the promise they make before they go will definitely be fulfilled. They are the ones who have a completely faithful intellect whereas the other poor things are still trying to maintain their courage. However, if you continue to move along in that way even now, will you simply continue to make effort in that way till the end? Are such effort makers called those who instantly sacrifice themselves? When something is sacrificed to the goddesses, the goddesses or shaktis do not accept that sacrifice if it is not an instant sacrifice. So, would BapDada accept them just like that? If they are not accepted here, they will not be accepted with a high status in heaven. This is why you were told that you must only speak what you think about, and that you must only do what you speak about. Your thinking, speaking and doing should all be the same. However, at the present time, there are many children who think a great deal, who speak a lot but who lack actually doing it. This is why you were told that you must make yourselves strong in this bhatthi and then go. That is, you must make a firm promise and then return. First of all, do you have the courage to make the promise, or are you still trying to maintain that courage? What is the sign of courageous children? They would never be defeated. If all of you are courageous, then, from today, you will definitely not experience defeat. Those who are victorious over a long period of time will become the beads of the rosary of victory. If you wish to be threaded into the rosary of victory, you will have to bring about the transformation of being victorious. You have to check the main aspects in your transformation. It is very easy.
Just remember two words. Firstly, you have to become an image that attracts, and, secondly, you have to remain cheerful. It is the spirit that attracts. Only through your spiritual stage will you be able to attract others. If you have imbibed these two aspects, then you are completely victorious anyway. Today, Baba is also telling you about the main aspect in the majority of the children. You are the ones with a faithful intellect and this is why you have arrived here. You have faith in the Father and in knowledge, but the faith in yourself sometimes makes you fluctuate. The main weakness is that you do not have controlling power . Because you do not have this, while understanding everything and thinking about it, even when you realise it, you still do that same thing again. The reason for this is the need for controlling power - in your thoughts, words and deeds, and also in connection with your worldly relations and when coming into relationship with those of the divine family. Because you do not have full controlling power over what you should do and should not do, what you should say and what you cannot say, you are not able to have success. So, how will you fill the gap of the lack of controlling power ? You brothers must have seen many times that when something is to be controlled very firmly, in order to control it properly you sometimes have to keep it slack. Have you ever flown a kite? What do you do in order to control it or to make it fly higher? It is the same here. In order to control your intellect you must let yourself become light in many aspects. What is the lightest thing of all? The soul, the point. So, when you have to control yourself, stabilise yourself in the point-form, which is the lightest. In order to control anything, you have to put a full-stop . So you must also put the point, the dot. Forget completely whatever has passed. You may have seen something, you may have done something, but finish it completely. To finish it means to put a dot, a full-stop . You know how to put a comma and a question mark . You even know how to put an exclamation mark, but you do not know how to put a full-stop . It is easy to make these signs on paper but why is there a difficulty in applying these signs to your actions? You put these signs on paper, and that sign is put exactly where it should be, and so that person is called an expert. If someone puts a comma instead of a full stop , he cannot be called an expert. He cannot be called an expert if he doesn’t put a question mark where there should be a question mark . Here, too, you are not able to become experts because you do not have the full recognition of where to put the comma , where to put the question mark , the exclamation mark or the full stop . Now, do you understand why you are not able to have control ? It is because the petrol of knowledge becomes less at that time. If there is the petrol of knowledge, there is control . This is why you must always have petrol in the tank of the intellect. Have you learnt the arithmetic of adding and subtracting? Have you also learnt how to balance ? It isn’t enough just to learn to add and subtract, but you also have to learn how to accumulate. If you haven’t accumulated anything, then neither will you be able to give to others nor will you yourself be able to move forward. One accumulates in order to give to others and for the self to be able to use it at a time of need. So, you also have to check how much you have accumulated. Are you just going to earn something and eat it, or are you also going to accumulate something? Have you ever calculated that? If you have only accumulated 25%, that is very little. If you have only accumulated 25% then, according to that present calculation, what responsibility will BapDada give you? In how much time will you be able to have more remembrance than you do here at present? Intense effort-makers never think about the date of destruction. If you have sanskars of perfection over a long period of time, you will be able to become perfect at the end. If you become perfect only at the end, then BapDada will also give you a little something just at the end. To those who do this from now, BapDada will say at the beginning of the golden age: Come! BapDada has hopes in each jewel that the child will make many others hopeful. How can someone who makes others hopeful hope to do something at the last moment? Achcha.
It is now the end of the bhatthi for this group . Did it finish or is it the beginning? Did this group not take an examination ? If you continue to keep for all time the example that you have just seen, you will be able take the exam. What do you do in order to make something very strong? In order to make a foundation strong, it is essential to go deep down. The deeper you go, the stronger it will become. There will not be that much strength by laying a foundation just on the surface. You will have brought about as much strength in yourself as the depth to which you have imbibed knowledge. Everyone has brought about one transformation or another. Why is it said: One or another? Because the final certificate will be given when you put it into a practical form. The certificate will not be given now. At the moment you remain cheerful that each child is very busy in making progress with a lot of zeal and enthusiasm in their effort. However, you will only receive the certificate when the result is given out in a practical form. Do not think that the bhatthi has finished; it has only just begun. At the moment, you have only heard all this, later you will have to do it practically. You will receive the certificate after you have done it practically.
The main speciality of this group is their unity, but, together with that unity, you have to add another word. Together with unity, you have to have love for solitude. Just as you are number one in unity, so you have to become number one in the subject of solitude. If this group imbibes this, it will be able to go ahead of many. You also have to make yourself one who has love for solitude as well as having unity. Only one whose intellect’s yoga is broken away from all other directions and is loving to One will be able to remain in solitude. Because of having love for One, such a soul will be able to stay in remembrance of One. Because of having love for many, you are not able to stay in remembrance of One. The intellect’s yoga should be broken away from many. It should be linked in only one direction, that is, there should be only One and none other. Those who have such a stage will be able to have love for solitude. Otherwise, even when he tries to sit in solitude, the intellect will wander in many directions. He will not be able to experience the bliss of solitude. Only someone who has all relationships with One and who tastes all the sweetness in the One can have love for solitude. Since he can taste all the sweetness in just the One, what need is there to go in other directions? However, those who do not have the practice of tasting all sweetness from just the One will try to taste the sweetness from everyone, and there won’t then be any attainment. There is a lot of attainment by connecting your intellect to the one Father. Simply remember one word, because the entire knowledge is included in that; awareness, relationships and the stage are all included in that. Together with that, whatever attainment you have is clarified in that one word. The remembrance of One (Eknaami): a constant stage and the knowledge that you receive is all in the remembrance of the One. The attainment that you have is constant. If, today, you have a lot of happiness and tomorrow it is reduced, there is no attainment in that. Nor is the supersensuous joy that you receive constant: sometimes a lot and sometimes a little. Now, you are going to take a paper to remain stable in a constant stage and we shall see how many marks you claim in the paper . Always try to do something and show others: my actions and my behaviour should teach others. In order not to fail in any situation, remember one easy thing: follow father . Follow whatever the father demonstrated in the corporeal form and you cannot fail in any situation. Whenever any situation comes in front of you in which you think you are going to fail , remember and check: Am I following the father ? Of all the actions that Baba performed through the sakar form in all these years, if even one thing comes in front of you, it becomes easy. If you are following the father , then, if you are about to perform any such action, this will act as a brake and you will be able to judge whether you can perform that action or not. When you say, “ Follow the father ”, both are included in that. When you remember “ Follow the father ”, you won’t fail and you will become flawless . BapDada wishes to make the children flawless . He is showing you this easy method to bring you close in the rosary. Just be careful that the method He has told you is not used by someone else before you. BapDada has hopes in each of the stars and this is why He says that you are the stars in whom there is hope.
You have special love and this is why you have come at such a time. You have also had renunciation: you have renounced your sleep and so you have shown your love. BapDada is now giving the return of love. Now, we shall see the result when you get back. You go back so that you can come again: going and coming. You have to go, but you go in order to come back. The more you continue to experience your avyakt stage, the more you will be attracted to come to the avyakt Madhuban. It is not now vyakt (corporeal) Madhuban. Achcha.
