"Through the greatness of your original elevated stage, finish the upheaval of wasteful thoughts."

Have you come close to your ultimate target? Can you see the signs of coming close to your target? Is the double intoxication of coming close to your ultimate target increasing? The first intoxication is of the karmateet stage, that is, to be beyond all karmic bondages, to be detached and have the elements working as instruments. You will experience the karmateet stage in this way. You would not have to make effort to become detached again and again. You will easily and naturally experience the one who is doing everything to be separate from the physical organs through which everything is carried out. The second intoxication is of becoming masters of the world; you will experience the physical costume to be ready and visible in front of you. There will be the faith that your costume is ready and, that in a short time, you will simply put it on. You will very clearly see the new satopradhan body that is complete with all virtues. Whilst walking and moving around, you will experience the happiness and intoxication that you will leave your old body tomorrow and adopt that new one. There will not be the slightest thought as to whether you will attain the deity status or not, whether you will become a deity or not or whether you will become a king or a subject. Such doubtful thoughts will not arise because you will clearly be able to see it in front of you: today you are this and tomorrow you are to become that. Because of being yogyukt with the third eye of knowledge, that is, because of being a constant yogi, because the line of the intellect is clear and because of being victorious due to having faith in the intellect, you will experience having adopted that costume many times, and that now also, all you have to do is to put it on. There will be firm faith and you will have a very clear vision. Whilst there is fluctuation in the intellect of whether you will become something or not, there will also be this fluctuation in your stage.

The more elevated your original stage becomes, the more it becomes an embodiment of knowledge and full of all virtues, unshakeable, stable, firm and constant, the more the fluctuation in your thoughts will accordingly finish. You saw that for sakar Baba and Mama there was no fluctuation in their intoxication, even in thought. They had completely unshakeable and firm faith that this is already fixed, that is, it is destined. The sign of intoxication is that you will experience unshakeable faith and a carefree stage. The sign of being close to your target is intoxication and the sign of intoxication is faith and being carefree. Together with this, you will be free from being attacked or defeated by Maya in any way. You will be free from any weak thought as to whether Maya will defeat you or whether you will be victorious or not, because you will be able to see it in front of you. Do you have this experience? Do you have the worry of weak thoughts such as: “Perhaps Maya will come, perhaps I might become weak, or will I be successful or not”? You do not waste your time and energy under the influence of the evil spirit of this fear, do you? To have such weak thoughts means that, by having doubtful thoughts within yourself, you will never become perfect. To have this thought means that by invoking one evil spirit in the form of weaknesses, you are also invoking other evil spirits of Maya, that is, you give this thought some space in your intellect and with this one thought, you invite many others. Therefore, until you remove the evil spirit of fear from your intellect, as long as there is this evil spirit how can there be the remembrance of the Father? The remembrance of the Father and an evil spirit cannot stay together in one place. Therefore, there is the saying that an intellect that has faith is victorious.

Have the faith, awareness and power that you have belonged to the Father many times and that you have been a conqueror of Maya many times, and so why should it be difficult to become this now? Do you not have the clear awareness that you, the elevated soul, have played the part of being victorious many times? If you do not have this clear awareness, it proves that you have not made yourself clear to the Father. Because you have concealed yourself from the Father for some reason, this evil spirit of fear also remains concealed within you. Because of a lack of faith of, "Whatever I am, whoever I am, I belong to the Father", you do not have the faith that you have become this many times. So, first of all, check whether you have made yourself clear to the Father. Or, do you just please yourself and the Father thinking that the Father is Janijananhar anyway and that He knows everything? Does the Father not know that He knows everything? You become the teachers of the Teacher of the World! Has the Father forgotten that you are reminding Him? This is why there is the Godly discipline or maryada that anyone who misses observing even one discipline or maryada cannot become maryada purshottam (the most elevated ones, following the highest code of conduct). Therefore, resolve the reason for your excuses. Just consider this: because of hiding one thing from the Father you accumulate one hundred thousand-fold burden on yourself. You make many mistakes because of one mistake and, because of disobeying one maryada, you then disobey many maryadas. If you haven't lightened yourself from the accumulation of the burden of so many hundred thousand-fold, how can you move forward in the ascending stage and how can you come close to your target? In the world outside, what title is given to someone who conceals something? Anyone who conceals even a small thing would be placed in the list of thieves, would he not? So, whilst you have such sanskars of lying to BapDada or just letting something go (covering up), do you know how much sin you accumulate? A lot of such negative activity is shown to the Father; those who show such activity can never become those with elevated activity. Because you consider the Father to be the Lord of Innocent, you think that something can remain concealed and that it doesn't matter. However, He is the Innocent Lord in the form of the Father. Together with that, at the time of making you settle your accounts, He is also lawful. So, what will you do at that time? Will you be able to conceal yourself at that time? Will you be able to save yourself then?

Check the many types of burdens you have. From amrit vela, there are many Godly disciplines and maryadas, and you are also aware how many maryadas you have disobeyed throughout the day. For each maryada, there are marks of attainment. Together with that, there is also the account of the burden on your head. Even for a maryada which you consider to be ordinary, there is the account of the attainment through it and against burden accumulated by it. By wasting the treasures of your thoughts, words, time and powers, you accumulate a burden of waste, just as when you waste anything or any food of the yagya, you accumulate a burden. Similarly, the Father has given you the time of this life of dying alive for world service. All the powers have been given to you for yourself and for the benefit of the world; the mind has been given to you to have pure thoughts, and the body has been given to you for doing the service of bringing benefit to the world. Are the body, mind and wealth that you have already given to the Father yours? Whatever you have surrendered to the Father now belongs to the Father, does it not? The Father then gave them to you for world service. The mind has been given to you so that you can purify the atmosphere and the environment by using your elevated thoughts. Similarly, if you use a Godly gift, that is, something given to you by God, in a wasteful way, would you not accumulate a burden?

Nowadays, the little prasad (holy food offering) that is received from the non-living idols in the temples is never wasted. If even one particle drops at their feet, it is considered to be a sin and it is then accepted by giving it the respect of raising it to the forehead. They will try to use the prasad in the most worthwhile way by distributing it to as many as possible and not waste it in any way. That mind and body, which are the supreme prasad offered to the Supreme Soul, have been given to you by the Father, and so would you not accumulate a burden by wasting them? Just as the speed of time is accelerating, in the same way, the speed of attainment or of creating a burden through your effort is also accelerating. This is known as the philosophy of karma being very deep. Today, Baba has told you about the philosophy of karma through which you will be able to attain salvation. Now, do you understand what the sign is of coming close to your target? And what is also the method to come close to your target?

BapDada also has mercy to make everyone complete and perfect now, but even the Creator is bound by the bondage of maryadas and Godly disciplines. Even the Father cannot disobey the maryadas. The Father has to observe the principle of: whoever does something receives the return of it. Yes, there is margin for Him to give one hundred-fold return of one. By your maintaining courage, He can help, but He cannot do anything else. Achcha.

To such souls who maintain courage and enthusiasm, to those who are victorious on the basis of having faith in the intellect, to the souls who have come close to their target, to those who constantly maintain their intoxication, to the souls who constantly make the waste powerful, to the souls who are embodiments of success by using their every second and every thought in a worthwhile way, BapDada's love, remembrance, good night and namaste.
