"Are all of you stable in the form of an embodiment of remembrance, that is, an embodiment of power? Today is the day for being an embodiment of remembrance in a special way. To be merged in BapDada's love means to become equal to the Father. The sign of love is equality; so, throughout today, did you experience yourself to be an embodiment of remembrance who is equal to the Father? Did you experience the response of BapDada's love in the form of the blessing of being equal to the Father? Today is the special day for giving you an experience of the stage of being equal to the Father very easily and in a very short time. Just as, out of all the ages, the confluence age is said to be the age for easily attaining all attainments, in the same way, this one day out of the confluence age is fixed in the drama for the Brahmins especially to be given the special blessing of all powers and of experiencing the stage of being equal to the Father. Knowing the special importance of the special day, did you celebrate it with that greatness? At amrit vela, BapDada opened the lottery of the golden chance of special experiences. Did you experience having the right to such a lottery? While full of love, in the stage of yoga and filled with all powers, did you remain beyond all the different types of attraction of matter and Maya? Today, BapDada saw the result of the efforts of the children. Do you know what BapDada saw in the result?"

BapDada saw many children in the form of the crown on His head and He also saw some children as the garland around His neck. He also saw some children as the decoration of the arms. Now, each of you can ask yourself: Where is my place? (Someone said: Wherever Baba places me.) Baba can place you anywhere, but you are the one who has to sit there. Baba's order is a huge one. Do you know that? In which group would the foreigners, that is, those who belong to the original land, be? If all the foreigners are part of the crown, then where would those who belong to the original land go? There can only be a few in the crown. The majority are the garland around the neck or the decoration of the arms. To be one with a crown means to be a sparkling jewel in BapDada's crown. Such souls are especially worshipped and the sign of them is that they are constantly absorbed in the Father and equal to Him. The Father would always naturally be revealed through their every word and deed. Seeing their features and their character, the words that would emerge from everyone's lips are that it is a wonder how Baba has made them so worthy. On seeing their virtues, others will constantly sing praise of the Father. Their vision will change the attitudes of others. Souls with such a stage are remembered as the crown on the head.

The decoration of the neck means the second number, those who are constantly engaged in the effort of revealing the Father through the sound from their throat, that is, from their mouth. They constantly keep BapDada in front of them, but are not absorbed in Him. They constantly sing BapDada's praise, but they themselves do not constantly remain as an embodiment of virtues. They have the elevated good wishes to make others equal, but they are not able to face all the different types of attack from Maya. Souls with such a stage are the decoration of the neck.

You must easily have understood about the third quality : the symbol of arms means co-operation. It is of those who co-operate in the Father's task in any way, whether through their thoughts, words, deeds, body, mind or wealth. However, they are not constantly yogi. There are many such children. Together with the revised course , BapDada has also given the realisation course. So what else remains now? What is still lacking?

Have you become the conquerors of attachment and embodiments of remembrance or do you still have to become that? Are you still waiting for the final destruction? You are not still waiting, are you? To wait for destruction means to be aware of the date of your death , so are you invoking your death ? You are having so many thoughts about why destruction has not yet taken place. When will it happen? How will it happen? Do you find the confluence age beautiful or the golden age beautiful? So, why are you afraid that destruction has still not taken place? If you yourself are satisfied with the answer to this question, you can also satisfy others. If you yourself have a question about this, then others too will definitely question you about it. Therefore, do not be afraid. When others ask you why destruction has not yet taken place, just tell them: Because of you, destruction has not taken place. Together with the Father, all of us are world benefactors. In bringing benefit to the world, we still have to bring benefit to souls like ourselves. Therefore, we still have a chance . What happens generally is that when someone asks you this question , you yourself become confused with the "Why? What?" etc. You think, "Yes, this is what we have been told; this is what has been written and it should have happened." This is why you are not able to satisfy others. With that intoxication, tell them that there is benefit merged in these words spoken by the Benefactor Father. We know about it and you will also know about it as you progress further. Do not be afraid. Do not move away from them and think, "What can we say? How can we answer them?" Out of fear, do not move away from the people to whom you told this. What will they do? If they create any wrong propaganda then those wrong words will put many others right and it will become a means for revelation. Since the children themselves keep asking this question, what is the big deal if people also ask this question? You think, "Should I do this or not? How can I make my household function? How can I satisfy all my relations? Should I get my children married or not? Should I build a home or not?" In fact, these questions have no connection with the date of destruction. If you have land and you have the thought of building on it, it means you have the thought of using it for yourself. If you want to use it for Godly service, then there is no question of whether you build a building or just use the land. However, if there is a need and you build it according to the directions you receive, then that will not go to waste but will be accumulated. So, there is no need to be afraid because of destruction, because to continue to move along according to shrimat means to have everything insured . You would definitely receive the fruit of that.

Now the question of getting married or getting someone married remains. You have already been given a direction for this: As far as possible, save yourself and other souls to whatever extent you can. What if destruction doesn't take place? Is it that you were remaining pure because of destruction? Purity is the original religion of Brahmins. The thought of purity is the aim and qualification of Brahmin life. Those whose real aim is purity have no connection with the date of destruction. This is just an excuse to hide your own weakness. Brahmins know how to make many excuses. Achcha, now the question of getting someone else married remains. For that, save others as much as you can. Do not become weak yourself and encourage the other person. Do not even have the thought in your mind that this has to be done. What happened to those who were not able to be saved even ten years ago? As a detached observer, Baba tried to save them with thoughts and words. In the same way, remain just as determined even now. But what can you do if someone wants to fall anyway? Because of destruction, do not allow yourself to come into upheaval. Your upheaval would create upheaval for those who are not following the path of knowledge. You should remain unshakeable. Speak with that sparkle of intoxication and without fear and those people will then become quiet by themselves and will not be able to say anything. Have faith in the intellect and do not become one who has an intellect full of doubts even in the form of thoughts. The royal form of doubt is, "It should have happened like this. I don't know why Baba had said this. BapDada should have told us in advance. So, how can we go in front of them?" This royal form of doubt will become instrumental to create doubts in the intellects of the people of the world. "Yes, Baba did say it and will say it even now": Maintain this faith and intoxication and those people will come and bow down to you, and say: It is the greatness of your faith! Do you understand? Do not be afraid. Are you afraid to go to jail ? You are not afraid, but you become distressed. You do not have the power to face. Just say that there was benefit in whatever Baba said and that there is benefit in it even now. We are saying the same thing even now. If you tell them with Godly intoxication and in an entertaining way, they will then laugh. However, first of all, you have to become strong. Do you understand?

Everyone's thoughts reached Baba today. Everyone was waiting to hear what Baba would say on the 18th. Now, did you hear? BapDada is with you; no one can do anything, no one can say anything. The kittens were safe even in the burning furnace and so this is nothing. No one can even harm a single hair. You do not have ordinary company; you have the company of the Almighty Authority. Therefore, an intellect that has faith is victorious.

There is no need to tell them the date . The date of the final destruction can never be fixed . If the date were to be fixed , all the seats would then also be fixed . Then there would be a long line of those who pass with honours . Therefore, be free from the thought of the date . When everyone becomes carefree, the date will automatically be known. When everyone becomes free from this thought, that will be the date of destruction. Achcha.

To such stable, unshakeable and immovable souls who remain unshakeable in their elevated stage in every situation, to the souls who are the pillars of all virtues and all powers, BapDada's love, remembrance and namaste.
