"Main Specialities of the Maharathi Children"

This is the group of those who have planning intellects. As well as this, they are embodiments of success. After becoming those with planning intellects, they give time and make effort to become embodiments of success in order to achieve some result . Maharathis especially experience success in a particular aspect. What is that one aspect? What is the speciality of the maharathis, on the basis of which they become maharathis? What is that? They have the speciality of being a maharathi when they claim the certificate of contentment from everyone; only then can they be called maharathis. Contentment is elevated and it is great. Subjects are also created on this basis. Souls who have been made content by such a soul would accept that one as a king: if you have enabled them to attain something through serving them or giving them co-operation, if you have enabled them to attain something through love, co-operation, courage, enthusiasm or by giving them all powers, you can then be a maharathi. So, if someone has not made others content, then that soul is just a maharathi in name, but not one who is of any use. Senior brothers and sisters are like a father and mother. Parents make everyone content. So, maharathis should definitely pay attention to this first. For this, you have to transform yourself. You definitely have to claim this certificate of contentment. You should check to see how many souls are content with you and what you should do so that everyone remains content with you.

A maharathi should have the power to mould the self. Only those who are able to mould themselves can become gold . Those who cannot mould themselves are not real gold ; they are mixed . To be of mixed quality means to be part of the cavalry. A maharathi (elephant rider) is able to mould the self. To create plans means to sow the seeds, and so the seeds should be powerful . You definitely need everyone's blessings of love and their contentment. You need the blessings and the water of love. Otherwise, even though the seed of the plans may be powerful , because it doesn’t receive the water of love and co-operation, it does not grow. Sometimes, the seed grows, but it doesn't bear fruit. Or, sometimes, even if it does bear fruit, it is of second or third grade. The reason for this is that it hasn't received enough water. A maharathi is one who has all specialities, that is, one who is full of all virtues and has all the qualities and specialities. If one or two qualities are missing, that one would not be said to be full of all qualities. If they don't have all the virtues, they move out of the list of those who have this title . Is this a group of maharathis? The invitation was for maharathis.

In order to become an embodiment of success, you need two main specialities: one is purity and the other is unity . If someone is lacking purity , he would also be lacking unity . Just observing celibacy is not purity , for there has to be purity in one's thoughts, nature and sanskars. For instance, if you have thoughts of jealousy or dislike for one another, that is not purity - that is called impurity . Purity is defined as not having even a trace of any of the vices. There shouldn't be any type of impurity even in your thoughts. All of you children are instruments to accomplish a very elevated task. You have become instruments as maharathis, have you not? If you were to make a list , it would be a list of those who are serviceable, that is, it is the Brahmin children who have become instruments for service who are in the list of maharathis. To what extent have you developed the specialities of a maharathi? Each one of you knows yourself. Are those who are in the maharathis’ list maharathis at the present time or will they come into the maharathis’ list at some time in the future? Attention needs to be paid to both of these aspects.

Unity means having unity in the harmony of nature and sanskars. Even if there isn't harmony between the nature and sanskars of some, try and bring them into harmony. This is unity . A gathering by itself is not unity . Serviceable instrument souls cannot become instruments for unlimited service without these two things. They can be instruments for limited service but, in order to do unlimited service , both these things are needed. You were also told earlier, that one only sings praise of a raas (dance) when there is harmony in everyone's clapping. So, too, to harmonise the steps means to harmonise oneself in the dance of sanskars. People who hear this knowledge say that everyone who talks about this knowledge says the same thing, that they all speak on the same topic ; and use the same words. People say this, don't they? When everyone's sanskars and nature are in harmony, that would be called performing the dance of harmony. Have you made a plan for this? (The plans were related to BapDada.)

You have kept the aim of revealing the task of establishment. The plans that you have made for revelation to take place are good. You have made plans for revelation to take place next year. However, for the time that still remains this year, according to the present atmosphere, it is now that you need people to come into contact with you. The success of the service that is to take place next year will depend on this year. In any propaganda , you definitely need the co-operation of powerful co-operative souls through whom there can be less expenditure and greater success, that is, through whom you have to work but would still attain greater success. If you serve them only at that time, you will not be able to receive their co-operation. However, by serving them now, before time, you are able to influence them to co-operate. All the plans are very good. According to all the plans that you told Baba about, people from every department should definitely make contact with other people, just as when educators come into contact with you, you receive a ready-made stage . In order to do fast service through any of the plans , this is essential. Through the points of the Gita, there would either be victory or cries of distress. However, there is first fluctuation and then there is victory. In order to clarify such points , you need everyone's co-operation. You need the help of ministers , lawyers and judges . Doctors , lawyers etc. are coming, and so, for this too, you need to make contact with ministries and associations etc. At present, everyone has a desire to hear something but they don't have the courage to follow that practically. They can be co-operative. First of all, prepare the land by serving them and then sow the seed of the unlimited task.

The plans are good. This year, something new definitely has to happen. You have to become instruments, but everything has to happen according to the drama anyway. However, those who become instruments are glorified within the whole Brahmin family. There is also this prize . Each one of you should extract the results of the meetings in your zone . Set your plans and then have a meeting with your results . Everyone says "yes" to the plans , but only five emerge as a result , and so also have a meeting for the result . Also have the aim to increase enthusiasm. Keep everyone busy so that they feel happy that they also give their finger. Whether someone is a hard worker or has a planning intellect, keep the younger ones at the front. Otherwise, while some do service with zeal and enthusiasm, the vibrations from others cause obstacles in attaining success, and therefore, everyone's help is needed. Give a particular duty to each one. Just as you distribute prasad, in the same way, distribute the prasad of service. When everyone has an atmosphere of enthusiasm, then, because of the influence of the atmosphere, no one will leave that atmosphere, whether someone is a moth circling around the flame or is someone who completely surrenders the self. So, there should be this speciality this year. Just as everyone says, "My Baba", so too, they should say, "My service". No one should say, "The seniors have made my programme , so I don't know whether this will happen or not." No, "my programme ". When there is this sound from everyone, there will be success. Give everyone a chance to serve . Achcha.
