"Experience the divine activities of subtle power through introversion."

Do you now clearly know the real power of silence ? Just as you are able to see the practical results of the powers of speech and actions, in the same way, have you seen the practical results of silence, the most powerful power of all? Have you experienced it? Just as you are able to transform souls by talking to them, so, too, do you have the experience of transforming the attitude and vision of others with your power of silence , that is, through your thoughts? Through words, you can only transform those who are in front of you. However, through the mind, that is, through the power of silence , no matter how far away souls may be physically, you can make them experience being personally in front of you. Just as through the instruments of science you are able to see distant scenes in front of you, in the same way, with the power of silence all distance will be finished; you as well as others will experience that scene to be in front of you. This is known as the power of yoga. Just as the instruments of science will only work when there is an accurate connection with the main station, in the same way, only when you have a constantly clear connection with BapDada can you experience the power of silence. In science, it is a question of just the connection , whereas here, a connection means to experience all relationships clearly ; only then will you be able to see the practical results of the power of the mind.

As yet, you are doing very little subtle service of invoking souls and transforming them through the power of the mind. Through their spiritual practice, semi-pure souls are able to invoke souls; through their spiritual endeavour, they are able to show miracles to souls at a distance; through their temporary means, they attract them towards themselves. Therefore, what can God’s power, that is, the most elevated power, not achieve? For this, you especially need the power of concentration: concentration of thoughts and concentration in your stage. The basis of these is introversion. By having introversion, you will internally have many unique experiences. Through divine vision, you are able to see the unique and divine activities of the subtle region, the subtle world. In the same way, through introversion, you will experience the divine activities of subtle power. Are you able to experience the spiritual divine activity of invoking souls, of having a heart-to-heart conversation with souls, of transforming the nature and sanskars of souls and of enabling souls to forge a connection with the Supreme Father? Are you able to give blessings of peace, power and freedom from disease from a distance to souls who have not attained anything and who are peaceless, unhappy and diseased? The method of giving blessings is portrayed in the non-living images of the Shaktis by the stability in the way the hands are shown. The pose of giving blessings is shown as stability in the hands (stage), vision and thoughts. Now, in your living form, increase the power of a concentrated heart, and spiritual service will then take place in the world of spirits. The spiritual world is not the incorporeal world. However, the spirit should invoke spirits and do spiritual service. Experience the wonder of this spiritual divine activity. You can do this spiritual service at a fast speed . So the conflict that arises due to the consciousness of "mine" and "yours" in serving through words and deeds, the conflict of name, fame, prestige etc. and the conflict of sanskars and nature, the feeling of a lack of time and money - all obstacles of this type will end. You will thereby develop the sanskar of spiritual service and will remain engaged in service with this sanskar. Now, this year, start this type of powerful service . Give all souls who come into contact with you through words or through the practical impact of your life , and those whom you still hope will come into contact with you, the experience of spiritual power. You have already given them the experience of your efforts and your greatness. Now, together with both those experiences, also give them the experience of your spirituality. Let them experience all these three.

By next Shiv Ratri, create such a subtle and physical stage that souls who come into contact with you experience love and spirituality through your form, and that through words they experience going beyond sound. Organise a special programme for such contact souls. Let it be your aim to give them an experience and not just to give a lecture. You may organise small gatherings, but your aim must be to bring them closer by giving them the experience of spirituality and a relationship with the spiritual Father.

Bring some newness! Your own stage and the place should both attract with spirituality from a distance. The question of giving a general message is different. You may do that, but definitely do this. For this, the instrument souls, that is, the serviceable souls, must make a pledge of maintaining their stage of concentration and introspection specially on that day. Through this pledge, they will be able to transform the attitude of others. You know that devotees hold a fast of physical food. You knowledge-full, serviceable souls should fast by staying beyond any upheaval of wasteful thoughts, wasteful words and wasteful deeds and maintain your concentration, that is, you will have to make a vow of maintaining your spirituality. Only then will you be able to show other souls the miracles of the Sun of Knowledge. Make an alokik plan . In devotion, the fragrance of incense sticks attracts others from a distance. In the same way, the power of concentration should attract from a distance. Do you understand what you now have to do? Develop a relationship with those who are in contact with you, and, with such experiences, make those special souls instruments to spread the sound. Achcha.

To souls who give the experience of being stable in spirituality, to those who remain engaged in spiritual service at every second and in every thought, to such spiritual servers who give an experience of comfort to other souls, BapDada's love, remembrance and namaste.

BapDada's meeting Didiji:

In the corporeal form, you saw many practical examples of the power of concentration. While sitting at a distance, children used to experience practically that BapDada was especially remembering them or was especially giving them the experience of receiving power. Thoughts and activities were found to be matching on both sides. You saw such practical experiences, did you not? When you are to receive a message via a telephone , it first rings . In the same way, when children receive the Father’s directions through a message or through thoughts, waves of happiness suddenly rise within souls so that they have goosepimples of happiness. However, some ignore the telephone and let it ring , and so are not able to receive the message . In the same way, although children definitely experience this, they move along with carelessness. They are not able to understand the divine activity of the power of concentration, but they definitely do experience it. In the same way, some souls also have an experience of other souls. However, just as when there is interference on the line or the telegraph a message cannot be conveyed due to that influence of the atmosphere or environment, in the same way, there is the influence here of attitude. Because of having an attitude that is not stable, you are not able to catch the message . This year, a group should become ready of those who have the determination to maintain the power of concentration, so that they are able to have these unique experiences. One is like receiving diamonds and jewels by going to the bottom of the ocean, and the other is to experience moving along with the waves of the ocean of knowledge. You have had the experience of moving along with the waves; now you have to go to the bottom of the ocean. Invaluable treasures are found at the bottom. By making this aspect firm, you will automatically be able to step away from everything else. This is known as having thoughts of the original self, of self-realisation and of powerful service. This is the stage of a lighthouse and might house . Then, you will have to donate through your drishti. This is the stage of taking someone beyond with just a glance. The power of concentration can show you many unique wonders. Those with occult power attain their power with the power of concentration. You can even cure yourself with the power of concentration. You can make many diseased souls completely free from disease. You can have many unique experiences through this power. To stop something moving is the result of the power of concentration. When something stops when you say " Stop !", the drums of victory of your being the bestowers of blessings will then beat. At present, they only beat the drums of "Wah! wah!". You have given very good lectures and worked very hard and your life is very good. Later, they will beat the drums of victory. So, do you now understand what the aim and objective is for this year? You need to do double service. You can do this special service at amrit vela. At that time, you will also be able to hear the call of the devotees. You will feel as though someone is personally calling you. Therefore, you have to increase this power. Whatever time you have, two minutes , five minutes , just experience the power of concentration. By accumulating a little at a time, you will accumulate a lot, and the revelation of the Almighty Authority will then take place through the Shaktis. The perfection of the Shaktis will work like a mirror for the blind. The year of perfection means to have this perfection. Achcha.
