"The basis for the stage of the highest authority is the awareness of your combined form."

Do you always remain stable in the stage of your combined form? The first combined form is that of the soul and the body which plays an eternal part in the eternal world cycle. The second combined form is the ever- combined form of the Brahmins of the most elevated confluence age, that is, of the children with the Father. The third combined form is also shown in the memorial of the four-armed image. Similarly, when you always continue to move along having imbibed the knowledge of the combined form, you will constantly experience yourself to be the highest authority .

First of all, always keep in your awareness the combined form of the body and the soul. The body is the creation and the soul is the creator; there is the combined form of creator and creation. You will then automatically maintain the awareness of being a master. The awareness of being a master means you will have the feeling of being the highest authority. You will be the one making things move, not one under their influence. However, gradually, over time, people combined the soul with the Supreme Soul and considered both to be one. In the same way, instead of considering the body and the soul to be separate, you have combined them and believed them to be one, that is, you have finished the awareness of your own authority . While moving along, you became body conscious and forgot your combined form, believing the body and the soul to be one. Now, if one forgets oneself, what would be the result ? You would lose everything. You became unconscious and lost everything.

In the same way, at the confluence age, when you forget the combined form of yourself with the Father, instead of experiencing yourself as the highest authority , you start experiencing yourself to be a soul who is weak, powerless, unhappy, confused and under some influence. The awareness of the combined form brings you power. While facing the various obstacles of Maya, by having the awareness of the combined form, you will automatically experience yourself to be an authority . Even if you are a weak soul, you will experience yourself to be a master almighty authority, because of the awareness of the companionship of the Father, the Almighty Authority being with you. Therefore, when you stabilise in the combined form, you become victorious over Maya which means that you constantly experience yourself to be the highest authority . When the combined form is in your awareness, the memorial, the fully adorned form, will remain in your consciousness. The adorned form is the sign of being victorious over Maya. Those who are adorned experience themselves to be constantly powerful. Therefore, keep all three types of combined form in your consciousness.

Do not separate yourself from your Companion. In the world nowadays, everyone wants to be in the company of someone or wants a companion , and people use all their time, mind, body and wealth for that. However, throughout the entire cycle, you will not have such a Companion or such company . A worldly companion may deceive you, cause you sorrow, change their mood , smile at times and cry at other times, but the alokik Companion will make you constantly happy. He will never have an off mood . He will save you from all deception. He is such a Bestower that He will always give you a thousandfold return. Nevertheless, there are many who do not recognise this Companion , and so, instead of always being with Him, they move away from him and become mischievous. Sometimes, you turn your mind away and sometimes wander around here and there with your intellect. Sometimes, you even divorce Him in your thoughts. To be influenced by a person or material comfort, that is, to be impressed by those things means you divorce yourself from your Companion through your thoughts for that length of time. To move away means to be divorced. So, instead of being a true companion seated on the heart-throne, you become one who fulfils the responsibility of the company for a temporary period; you become one who is deceived by being tempted by some limited attainment, that is, the artificial golden deer attracts you to itself. So, instead of being made a true companion seated on the throne, you are made into a deceitful companion. To be attracted in your thoughts means to be divorced. In fact, to be divorced in your thoughts again and again means to be divorced from the fortune of the kingdom for all time.

Some sulk a lot. They consider sulking to be entertainment. Some repeatedly show bossiness to their Companion by saying, “I will move along in this way. I will definitely do this. You will also have to do this. You have made a promise and so You have to take me with You. Since You are the Almighty Authority, give me power. It is Your duty to help me.” However, you do not remember that it is your duty to take that help. You forget that it should first be one step of yours, and then the Companion takes a thousand steps. You remind the Companion of the things that He has told you. So, this is bossiness, it is not? You yourself repeatedly let go of the finger of awareness and you then ask, “Baba, why are you not holding onto my finger?” There are many who make such mischief. Think, however, whether you would ever get another Companion who seats you in His eyes and takes you back. Therefore, always fulfil the relationship with the Companion, that is, stay in the combined form.

Along with this, the company of Brahmins is the most elevated company which, according to the fortune of the drama , only a few souls receive. However, within this company , you also have to discern whether this company will benefit you and give you attainment. The company of Brahmins enables you to attain all attainments. There are both full caste and half-caste Brahmins. Half-caste means warriors. You need the company of Brahmins. You need to keep the company that your Companion keeps. If you keep the company of half-caste Brahmins, then, instead of being close to the true Companion, you automatically become distant from Him. The company of Brahmins enables you to go into the ascending stage. The company of warriors will make you stagnate. When a person is elevated, their company is also elevated. Therefore, an elevated Brahmin cannot have any company that is not accepted by his Companion. A faithful companion will never keep such company . Do not say, “What can I do? I need some company !” Always consider the type of company you should have. Therefore, understand the Companion and the company and sustain that relationship. Fulfil the responsibility of love for your Companion and observe the codes of conduct of such company . Do you understand? This is known as stabilising yourself in the stage of the highest authority through having the awareness of your combined form. Achcha.

To all the children who fulfil the responsibility of love, to those who stay within the line of the code of conduct, to those who do not chase after an artificial golden deer and thereby move away from the Companion and do not remain separated from the true Companion for even a second , to those who constantly give their finger of awareness to the Companion and move along with Him, to the souls who are seated on the throne now, and in the future, BapDada’s love, remembrance and namaste.

BapDada speaking to Dadiji and Didiji:

This time, according to the drama and even against one’s conscious wish, there was the part to meet the older ones. The muhurat (auspicious opening) took place with the meeting of the maharathis. The maharathis can understand the Father and His deep signals. Even though others hear this, they cannot know it. No matter how public it may be, the Father has a personal meeting in public . Not everyone is able to understand the depth of this secret. Rain falls everywhere at the same time, but only if the land is good enough is it able to become enriched by the rainfall. However, if the land is not good, even though there may be rainfall, it cannot become enriched.

With which vision has BapDada been seeing the maharathis from the beginning? They are not children, but brothers. Older children are equal to brothers. Just as the Father is the Bestower, so too, He sees the maharathi children as bestowers, not those who take, but those who bestow, the same as the Father. The Father is the Bestower of Fortune, and so which company do the maharathis like? In a companionship, what would it be like if one is tall and the other is short? It would seem like a cartoon , would it not? So, too, if companions are not equal in their stage, that is, if you do not become a master almighty authority - your Companion is the Almighty Authority and you are weak - then this would also be like a cartoon , would it not? That is, a couple of one tall person and one short person. Generally, in the lokik world, if both companions are not alike, whether physically, in terms of knowledge , in terms of their character or in terms of the codes of conduct, then one companion would not keep the other person with him. He would keep the other one aside; he would not bring the companion in front of the world. So, too, who would the Father make His constant companions? Those who are equal to Him. Whom would He keep as a sample for the whole world? The cartoons ? So, to be a maharathi means to be an equal companion. The Father would keep such a companion with Him or in front of Him in all tasks. If the Father were to make a line of His companions , what would He see? What would that scene be like? Nevertheless, because the Father is the Ocean, He accommodates the children, no matter what they are like. All are accommodated in the ocean. However, you would say that it is numberwise. Each of you has to check yourself to see what type of companion you are. How many times do you divorce the Father? How many times do you make mischief? How many times do you become bossy? Look at your timetable for the whole day and see what you get up to!

BapDada meeting groups:

The way to have constant awareness is to forget the consciousness of “mine”. Everything belongs to the Father. Even that body is not yours; it belongs to the Father. The Father has given it to you for service, and so all consciousness of “mine” has finished, has it not? Once the consciousness of “mine” has finished, you automatically become soul conscious. When you step away, even a little, from having the awareness of the Father, Maya comes. If you remain constantly combined , Maya does not have the courage to bring you into body consciousness. At all times, you should not think about anything other than the Father.

When you step away from the Father you become weak. When you think, “What can I do? How can I do this? It is difficult to conquer Maya”, it means to step away. When the Almighty Authority Father is with you, can you have this thought? In order to separate you from the Father, Maya will come in many forms. “I am not able to do this. I am weak, how can I do this?”. These thoughts of weakness are the Akasur and Bakasur (devils) of the army of Maya, Ravan. You mustn’t be afraid of them, but always think, “I am victorious. I have been victorious before and I am victorious even now.”

Within this drama , you souls are the special children who play a special part . Because the most special of all is the Father, the souls who play their part with the Father would automatically be special. In the world too, when people spend even a little time with someone special, they have a lot of intoxication. How much intoxication do they have if they spend even a little time with the Prime Minister ? However, he is that today, but not tomorrow. So, how elevated this One is! And also eternal. Therefore, do you have this much intoxication? There should be the constant intoxication: I belong to the Father and the Father belongs to me. The Father is constantly the Ocean and the Bestower, and so the children should also be oceans and bestowers. You should not say, “Baba, help me!” Has the Father kept anything for Himself? Since He has given you everything, what would you ask for? As soon as you take birth, the Father gives you the crown, the throne and the tilak. So why should you ask for anything? Always think that there is no one else who has the fortune of happiness that you have. There has neither been anyone, nor will there be anyone as fortunate. You will then constantly dance with intoxication.

The fruit of karma yoga is easy yoga and happiness. Whatever you do, you receive the instant fruit of that here multimillion-fold in return. Whatever people of the world do, they do it for happiness, but here you have unlimited, imperishable happiness. When the mind is happy, the illness of the body changes from a crucifix to a thorn. Do not think a lot. By thinking too much you lose your power to decide. A paper coming is for you to become strong, not to be afraid. The papers enable you to strengthen your foundation . The foundation is hammered, but that is not hammering but strengthening the foundation .

No matter how much external upheaval there may be, if you are told to stop in a second , you should be able to merge whatever expansion there is in a second . You need to practise a great deal merging your nature, sanskars, thoughts and relationships in a second . Your sanskars should not emerge under any circumstances, in hunger or thirst, winter or summer. Even nature can deceive you at certain times. Therefore, merge all your nature, thoughts and sanskars. This is known as having the power to merge. Constantly keep on practising this. Only when you have this practice over a long period of time will you be able to pass . Achcha.
