"Responsibilities of the elevated souls of the confluence age."

Do all of you now know the Lawmaker (Vidhata also implies the Bestower of Wisdom), the law and the method very well? If you know the Lawmaker, then you automatically have the laws and methods in your intellects and in your actions. Through the Lawmaker, all you elevated souls have also become lawmakers. Do you perform every action considering yourself to be this? The elevated actions of you Brahmins at this time become the laws for the whole world throughout the entire cycle. The actions of you Brahmins are of such importance. Do you perform every action whilst considering it to be of this much importance? You have to perform every action whilst considering yourself to be a creator of the laws. From when and through whom do all the systems that continue throughout the cycle begin? Whatever the systems and customs of you Brahmins are at this time in your practical lives, they become the eternal laws for all time. When you perform every action with this awareness, there will never be any carelessness. You have to continue to move along, according to the right method, whilst being an embodiment of this awareness. Do you have the awareness that you have to perform actions whilst considering yourself to have such a huge responsibility? The speciality of the confluence age is that every elevated soul has a responsibility. It is not that just a few special souls have been given the responsibility and that you are the ones who follow those laws made by them. No, each soul is one who creates the laws now. With this faith, you will be able to attain complete success in every action, because, by considering yourself to be a creator of the law, you will perform every action with the accurate method. By using the accurate method, you definitely receive complete success. In order to attain success, you must have the clear understanding of one aspect in the intellect, and you can then easily attain success. What is this one aspect? Why do you forget to have this awareness? What is the aspect that makes this happen? If you learn just one wise method, you can easily become free from forgetting for all time. What is that method? For anything that comes in front of you as an obstacle, if you learn the method to transform that thing that comes in front of you, you can become completely free from obstacles. Because of forgetting, there is wastage in your awareness, attitude, vision and connections. If you learn how to transform all of these things, there can then be that firmness (strength). A wasteful awareness, that is, awareness of the body and bodily relations, awareness of material things for the body, becomes instrumental in making you forget the right awareness. If you learn how to transform the awareness of the body and bodily relations and the awareness of material things for the body, then will your stage not become strong? In the same way, when you learn how to transform your attitude, vision and relations, you will come close to perfection. You do not know the method to transform these things. Instead of having body-conscious vision, transform it into soul-conscious vision; transform lokik relationships into alokik relationships. Because you lack this, you are not able to reach the stage of perfection. You can see that even matter has the power to transform itself: science is a power of matter. Science , the power over matter, can transform things in a second : it can make cool things hot and hot things cool. Science has this power, does it not? It makes a cool atmosphere warm and a warm atmosphere cool. The power of matter is able to transform things, and so is your Godly power, that is, the power of you elevated souls, not able to transform your own vision and attitude?

Because of not being able to transform your own attitude and vision, you become an obstacle for your own self. Matter is your creation and you are a master creator. Then just think: My creation has this power , and so, if I, a master creator, do not have this power , then are these the qualifications of an elevated soul? Today, the power of matter is able to do whatever it wants in a second . This is why the wandering souls of today wish to see an example of the practical proof of the supreme power, Godly power and the power of silence . When someone defames you, you should transform that defamation into benefit in a second . When others, who are under the influence of their sanskars and nature, come in front of you as a test, in a second , through your awareness of your elevated sanskars, you should imbibe the sanskars and nature of being merciful to such souls. When someone comes in front of you with body-conscious vision, transform his vision into soul-conscious vision in a second . Someone may come in front you with the intention of making you fall or to put you under the influence of his bad company. At that time, on the basis of your elevated company, you should remove him from the influence of bad company and colour him with the colour of your elevated company. By learning the wise method to bring about such transformation, you will never be defeated by any obstacle. On seeing this subtle, elevated service of yours, all of those who come into connection with you will surrender themselves to you. Just as when the Father transforms you souls, you give thanks to Him, and you surrender yourselves to Him, so too, all the souls who come into connection with you will be thankful to you. This is an easy method, is it not? In any case, any type of vision, scene, or thing has to be transformed. This drama is always changing. You tell people that destruction has to take place and that everyone has to go to the land of liberation, that if they destroy their sins before destruction on the basis of knowledge and yoga, they can then be liberated from experiencing punishment. Everyone has to return, but whatever each one does, each one will receive the return of that. In the same way, everything is going to be transformed, but, if at the time when something becomes an obstacle in front of you, you are able to transform it on the basis of your own power in a second , you receive the fruit of your effort. Transformation has to take place, but by transforming something in the right way, in an elevated way, there will be elevated attainment. If transformation takes place on the basis of time, you will not attain anything. Any obstacle that has come will definitely go away according to the time, but if you transform it before that time with your power of transformation, you receive the attainment. So, do not think that whatever has come in front of you will automatically go away, or that the karmic accounts of the soul will be settled anyway, or that time itself will teach everyone the lesson. No, if I do something, I receive the fruit of it. If time does something, I do not attain anything. That would be the speciality of the time, not your speciality. Whatever happens according to the time is not remembered, but if someone does something without the support of time, then it is said to be a wonder. Fruit in season does not have as much value as the same fruit being found out of season. Do not think that time will automatically make you perfect. You have to become perfect and bring the time close. Time is the creation and you are the creators. The creators are not dependent on the creation. The creators make their creation subservient to them. So, imbibe the power of transformation in this way. Today, one small piece of machinery can transform something so much; it can make something that is absolutely useless become useful; it makes an old thing new. So, can the subtle machinery of your most elevated powers not transform your own attitude and vision and the attitude and vision of others? You will then never let the words, "This happened or that happened etc.", emerge from your lips. You will not make any excuses. These are also excuses. There are many different excuses to keep yourself safe . You were told earlier that the game that Brahmins play the most at the confluence age is this one. You have to transform this. The sanskars of everyone have to be transformed: this aim is the foundation of Brahmin life. It should not be that you transform yourselves only when others transform themselves but when you change, you will change others. You always have to keep yourself in front in this. Whether others change or not, if I change, others will then automatically change. You are the ones who will change; you are the world transformers. You are not those who only change yourselves in some aspects. Whilst constantly keeping such an aim in your awareness, make yourself strong. Time is now ringing the bells of closeness. You must also make intense effort to show the practical proof of the introduction of the Father. Show some fruit of the sustenance you yourselves have taken. You received teachings and sustenance from the physical, corporeal form. You have received a lot of sustenance from the teachings of the avyakt from too. So, what is it time for now? Do you still just have to continue to receive sustenance, or do you have to show the fruit of that sustenance? This is now the part that the drama is revealing. In the golden age, the parents give sustenance and give you the right to the fortune of the kingdom; they enable you to sit on the throne of the kingdom, and give you the tilak of sovereignty, that is, they give you the tilak of responsibility and they themselves become detached observers. Even though they are with the children, they remain detached observers. So, where did this law begin?

Even now, BapDada gives you the tilak of responsibility of world service and He Himself remains the Detached Observer. He is the Detached Observer, is He not? Even whilst being with you, He is the Detached Observer. This year, you now have to become even more of a detached observer. Till when will you continue to celebrate the avyakt meeting through the corporeal form? Therefore, in this new year, BapDada is teaching you the drill of experiencing that avyakt stage and stabilising yourself in that stage, so that you can become avyakt and celebrate an avyakt meeting with the avyakt Father. No part remains constantly the same; it constantly keeps changing to make you move forward. So, now, BapDada in the corporeal form is especially giving you the easy blessing of celebrating the avyakt meeting.

According to the plan of the drama , the first month of the new year has a special blessing for any effort-making soul who makes the effort to create an avyakt stage or to have a sweet heart-to-heart conversation with the Father. That is, any soul who develops love for the Father and with an honest heart wants to attain something from the Father will easily have a unique and alokik experience of this in the form of a blessing. Therefore, even the avyakt meetings through the corporeal form will come to an end. What will you do then? Will you not celebrate any meeting? Instead of celebrating a temporary meeting, you will experience a meeting for all time. You will experience celebrating a meeting as though you are very close and personally in front of Baba. Do you understand? In this new year, according to the deep love and desire of each one, there can be many alokik experiences. Therefore, be destroyers of obstacles and remain absorbed in love. Through your love, even obstacles will change their form. The obstacles will not be experienced as obstacles, but they will be instrumental in making you embodiments of unique experiences. Even obstacles will seem like a game. Big things will be experienced as minor things. The word "How?" will be transformed into "In this way". The words "I don't know" will be transformed into "I now know everything." That is, you will become knowledge-full . So, celebrate this year as a special year for bringing about a fast speed in your effort. Transform yourselves and celebrate the special year of transforming the world. Achcha.

To the fast effort-makers who know the laws, the methods and the Lawmakers; to the strong souls who bring about transformation, love, remembrance and namaste from BapDada.
